Feng Shui

The ancient Chinese art of manipulating and arranging your personal space, to attract positive energy (chi) into your life, so that it flows smoothly and prevents obstructions that can have adverse effects.

Feng Shui (pronounced "Fung Sh-way"), has been used for almost 4,000 years as a method to create harmony and balance in our environment. Feng Shui translated means "Wind and Water" which are natural forces of the universe containing energy. According to the Feng Shui philosophy, energy (chi) enters a home or office through the front door, considered "the mouth of chi". 

A Feng Shui practitioner will use an ancient map called the Ba'Gua which will divide your home into eight or nine areas, creating zones that represent specific parts of your life including wealth, career, fame and romance, to name a few. Feng Shui also uses the 5 natural elements (Fire, Earth, Metal, Water and Wood) to assist in creating a peaceful, harmonious environment. By identifying problems in each living and working space and showing you how to cure them, the Feng Shui practitioner will add the positive energy to the space that will, according to tradition, make your life better.  Energy exists all around you; let me help you discover how to use that energy in advantageous ways in your life.

In the search for information on Feng Shui, you will find an immense quantity of resources.  Books can be confusing to an untrained nonprofessional and if the cures are implemented incorrectly, it could prove to create negative energy instead of the positive energy we are all looking for.  To get accurate results, you should use a Certified Feng Shui Practitioner.

Feng Shui is a positive tool for change, which can bring peace and happiness into your life.  With the power of Intention, Feng Shui can enable us to fulfill our most desired goals.  An environment with good Feng Shui actually supports the occupants in moving toward their personal goals.

Our home is our haven and should be a refuge that renews and restores our spirit where we can retreat from the pressures of the outside world.  It should be a calm, pleasant environment where the energy flows freely through each room without encountering any harmful obstructions.

Feng Shui has both mundane and transcendental solutions for effective change.  It is possible for you to achieve balance in your life with my suggested Feng Shui cures and step into a realm of harmony and balance that will compliment your life in ways you have only imagined.

(Yin-Yang)

This Symbol represents the ancient Chinese understanding of how things work. The outer circle represents "everything", while the blue and white shapes within the circle represent the interaction of two energies, called "yin" (blue) and "yang" (white), which cause everything to happen.

Your surroundings can have an influential affect on what you attract into your life. When your energy is blocked or unbalanced your whole well-being can be affected.  On the other hand, when your energy is balanced, good things naturally flow into your life. Energy (chi) can accumulate in objects around you making you feel either good or bad.  Do you have particular rooms in your house where you feel better or worse in?  If so, you should have the flow of energy inspected.  Take control of your life!  Don't let your surroundings control you!  Contact me for a Feng Shui consultation today.  You will be pleased you did.
