Shores! The “Shores” environment variable seems to be the one that everyone wants and thinks they have. I think most of us find the beach peaceful and calming so we assume this must be in our Human Design chart.
What I find interesting though, is that I haven’t met that many shores people! And the few I have met, did in fact find themselves living close to a body of water. Today I’m sharing more about Shores so you can see how it resonates for you and how to use the energy of shores in your life to thrive. Discover how understanding your environment variable from your Human Design chart can make all the difference!

What is Human Design?
Human Design is a fascinating system that combines elements of astrology, Kabbalah, I Ching, and quantum physics to create a unique “energetic blueprint” for each individual. Think of it as your personalized guidebook to understanding how your energy interacts with the world. It reveals insights into how you make decisions, how you can best utilize your energy, and what kind of environment truly supports your well-being.
By delving into your unique energetic makeup, you can:
- Make decisions that align with your true self, discovering a decision-making process that feels authentic and empowering.
- Optimize your energy, learning how to conserve it effectively and utilize it to its fullest potential.
- Create a supportive environment that nourishes your soul, enhancing both your productivity and overall happiness.
- Live a more authentic life, embracing your true nature and shedding societal expectations that don’t serve you.
The Importance of Your Environment
One of the key aspects of Human Design is understanding your Environment. This is one of the four “Variables” that make up your unique energetic blueprint. It defines the type of physical space where you thrive and feel most supported. There are six primary Environment types: Caves, Markets, Kitchens, Mountains, Valleys, and Shores.
Knowing your Environment type is incredibly beneficial because it helps you:
🙌Optimize your workspace to support your energy and productivity.
🙌Improve your well-being by creating surroundings where you feel comfortable and at ease.
🙌Make better decisions, as your environment can significantly influence your thought processes and choices.
🙌Nourish your body, mind, and spirit by creating a space that allows you to recharge.
🙌Access your intuition, creativity, and productivity whenever you need it.
Today, we delve into the Shores environment, exploring its unique characteristics and how to optimize your workspace for maximum well-being and productivity.
Shores Environment: Your Guide to Thriving
If you have Shores as a variable in your Human Design body graph (you can download your chart here), you thrive in spaces that offer a sense of transition and fluidity. The key to optimizing your workspace as a Shores type is to create an environment that feels balanced between two contrasting elements, like land and water.
Finding Balance in the Flow:
Harmony & Adaptability:
You excel at navigating change and maintaining a sense of equilibrium within the chaos. Juggling multiple projects or wearing different hats energizes you. Embrace dynamic work environments with shifting priorities, as they fuel your creativity and problem-solving skills.
Stimulating Your Flow State:
Open floor plans with natural light or access to water features can mimic the Shores environment and trigger your “flow state.” This leads to increased productivity and a deep sense of being “in the zone” at work. You can find my desktop water feature on Amazon [HERE].
Bridging Worlds through Collaboration:
- Connecting Diverse Perspectives: Shores individuals are natural bridge-builders. You excel at navigating contrasting viewpoints and fostering harmonious collaboration. This makes you a valuable asset in roles that require teamwork and communication.
- Spiritual Connection & Purpose: The Shores environment fosters a deep sense of connection, not just with nature, but also with the larger universe. This can fuel your spiritual growth and cultivate a sense of purpose and meaning in your work. Enjoy the process of merging the practical and the spiritual in your career path.
Shores: Do You Need to Live There?
Environment doesn’t mean you have to live in the literal environment shown in your Human Design Body Graph. While living near a beach or having a beach view can be inspiring for Shores individuals, it’s not mandatory. Most Shores people I’ve worked with have found success by:
- Taking walks on the beach: Immersing yourself in the sights, sounds, and smells of the shoreline can be very restorative for Shores individuals.
- Having occasional glimpses of the beach: Even a small window view of the ocean or a strategically placed beach photo can provide a connection to the Shores environment.
- Creating a “Shores feel” in their surroundings: The following tips will show you how to incorporate the essence of the Shores environment into your home and workspace, regardless of location.
