Feng Shui

Feng Shui is the ancient Chinese study of the energy of a place and the art of creating harmony and balance in both your living and working environment.

Feng Shui means wind and water, when these two forces meet energy is released. The definition of energy is to "make things happen". Feng Shui allows you to use this energy or chi to balance and harmonize every aspect of your life. This includes relationships, wealth, health, vibrancy, and well being for you and everyone else you care about.

How can Feng Shui help you to make better things happen in your life?

Feng Shui works with the circulation and flow of the life force (chi) in the living and working environment to create balance and harmony. It provides ways to create or select an ideal living or workspace to bring prosperity, productivity, and peace. Throughout the centuries, Feng Shui has been extensively used in all Eastern cultures. It has recently found its way to the West where it has gained popularity as people have come to realize its power.

Feng Shui gives a new perspective for viewing your life and the space where you live and work. It supports change. In many cases Feng Shui involves just plain common sense: if the faucet is leaking, call a plumber; if a light bulb is burned out, replace it; if a door sticks, fix it; if you want a new job, send out resumes and network. But in addition to these mundane changes, using the Feng Shui principle that "your space reflects your life," you can begin to ask what besides the faucet was "leaking" out of your life, what else has "burned out" in your life, what issue is "sticky" for you right now. The Chinese have a poetic yet literal way of looking at issues. If you want to call something or someone into your life, use a bell or a chime. If you want to stop money from running out the front door, put an empty basket inside the door to catch the flow of wealth before it leaves your house. If you want some project or relationship to blossom, place a healthy, lush plant in the appropriate area to represent growth and vitality.

The adjustments for Feng Shui can be small and subtle and are usually affordable. An adjustment may not even be visible----a mirror placed in a closet or a business card tucked behind a picture can be as effective as rearranging the living room furniture. The power of the adjustment does not depend on the object as much as the intention with which the object was placed. The stronger the intent, magnified by Feng Shui, the more dramatic the shifts that will manifest in your life.

What is involved during this process?

Feng Shui is consciously designing your home, office and garden using layout, orientations, the elements (fire, earth, metal, water & wood), shapes, color schemes, lighting, sound, scents, placement of furniture, decorative objects and artwork.
