How Feng Shui Can Help You Achieve Your Goals
What Is Feng Shui? Feng Shui is, in essence, the art of assessing our quality of life by observing and analyzing our living environment.
Here’s a side note for the history buffs: The term Feng Shui (literally translated as “wind and water”) was coined by Guo Pu in his classic Burial Book (written circa 300 AD). He notes that, “Chi rides and scatters with the wind, and gathers at the boundaries of water.”
Wind, water, sunlight and other natural elements play a huge role in Feng Shui. Later in this book, we’ll learn how to “balance” the elements within a space to create a more comfortable living environment that helps us to achieve our goals.
How Can Feng Shui Help You Today?
How can Feng Shui help you right now? With the power of your intention behind it, Feng Shui will provide you with the tools you need for success in the most important areas of your life. Remember, you may face challenges along the way. The biggest challenge many of my clients face is in their mindset. It can be hard to “get unstuck” and take that first step toward change. Human beings are set in our ways. We dislike inconvenience, and change can be inconvenient until momentum begins propelling us forward.
Feng Shui has helped millions of people:
- Solve problems related to the most important areas of their lives, including health, career, finance, relationships, and more.
- Improve the flow of chi in your space to welcome new energy and opportunities.
- Create a life in which you spend every day living with intention, peace, and purpose.
But Does Feng Shui Really Work?
Many modern Asian business owners and leaders will not permit a building to be constructed unless the architects have employed good Feng Shui practices, including “siting” the building to be sure it is in an auspicious (fortunate) location, that the building orientation will bring wealth and fortune to the occupants, and that the shape and architectural features of the building adhere to principles of good Feng Shui.
The Different Schools of Feng Shui
As a leading Feng Shui consultant, the number one question people ask me has to do with compass directions of a person’s home, bedroom, front door, etc. This is a big frustration for many people, and it can be hard to grasp. But here’s the good news: not every school of Feng Shui relies on compass directions.
First, it’s important to understand that there are a variety of different schools of Feng Shui, with different ways of understanding and interpreting the flow of chi and the Ba Gua. Sometimes, as people begin their self-study, they purchase tons of books and then realize that each book tells something completely different. That’s because all schools of Feng Shui are based on similar universal knowledge, but have developed different approaches and techniques for identifying and balancing chi.
