Maria Barneson

Feng Shui & Space Clearing Guru

Maria Barneson is a passionate woman, who loves living life to the fullest.  She has over 17 years’ experience in beauty, coaching, fashion and space organization. Her experience includes both management and professional services for top executives at leading companies, such as Benefit Cosmetics.  She holds degrees in Product Development from the Fashion Institute for Design and Merchandising (FIDM) of San Francisco, as well as a degree in Behavioral and Social Sciences.  These provided her with a combined understanding of both people and the processes that support their self expression in the world.  She understands the multitude of details involved in bringing an individual’s essence into reality, yet also appreciates the magic of moments when creativity arises.  Maria also loves rigorous self-development and personal growth training.  In her ongoing training, she refines her coaching skills – supporting others to expand their awareness, transform their views, and live into powerful futures.  She presently resides in the San Francisco Bay Area, and she is also in Chico often to see clients and visit her family.  
 
Maria sees true beauty in people expressing their inner wisdom and authentic self-expression with their bodies, fashion, communication, and living spaces.  She has experienced many cultures and sacred traditions in her travels, each having unique expressions of both inner and outer beauty, which inspire her clearing and organizing work today.  Maria brings her clients’ beauty to the world through alignment with their own unique expression.  To do so clears away the "stuff" in their spaces that has masked their essence beneath confusion, disorganization, and dysfunction, both physically and energetically.
 
In her services, Maria integrates multiple modalities of clearing, creativity and alignment, including traditions and rituals of Feng Shui, Native American Ceremonies, intention setting, crystal altars, and more.  She attunes each modality to honor her clients’ essence and support their goals.  By combining these sacred traditions with modern, practical programs, she supports people in clarifying what truly brings them joy.  She loves to bring function, flow and beauty to each space, which she holds as essential for feeling aligned in life, home, and business.
