Response to our Feng Shui is overwhelming!

Wednesday, February 17th, 2010

Dear Readers,
Your response to our Feng Shui book and the newsletters has been so great that I thought I give you another extract right now.
Hope you enjoy it as much as the others – and have a great time experimenting with your own furniture decorating or ornament placement or even with placing crystals and jewellery.

FENG SHUI AS A SCIENCE
Some Feng Shui practitioners consider it a science. If your understanding of
Feng Shui basically involves the idea that you need to move some furniture
around and paint the walls a certain colour for luck then you may be amazed at
all the equations and studying that goes into Feng Shui.
Chinese sciences utilize many different principles that are considered scientific
because they follow a similar pattern to other sciences:
1. A theory is created.
2. The theory is tested.
3. The theory is either endorsed or disregarded depending upon the outcome of the various tests.
4. Continual revisions are applied to theories over time as needed.
Feng Shui is not a practice that involves people sitting around and arbitrarily
thinking up new theories to follow. These ideas have been around for
thousands of years and have been tested and retested during this time. This is
not to say, of course, that every aspect of Feng Shui should be considered as
having scientific merit and that utilizing Feng Shui within your home will
flawlessly deliver the outcome you are looking for. You should realize, however,
that there is much more to Feng Shui than wandering into a room and “feeling”
where the furniture should be placed.
Math, charts, and the stars must align. Not every branch of Feng Shui
utilizes all the tools from within the trade, but some schools of thought regularly
incorporate elements of mathematics, astronomy, astrology, and various other
disciplines in order to create a harmonious living environment. Do you know
that some Feng Shui practitioners will not only need to see your home before
they can offer advice, but they will also want to know what direction the home
faces, what year the home was built, and the birthdates and times of everyone
living within the home? They take all this various information in addition to other
pieces of information and fashion together a suitable recommendation. This
means that if you have someone over to your house to offer you some advice
with regard to making the energy within your home flow in a more harmonious
manner then you shouldn’t be surprised if the person spreads out a stack of
charts, graphs, magnets, counting apparatuses, compasses, and other tools
before you are offered any advice. Obviously, there is a lot more to Feng Shui
than plopping a dragon statue above your fireplace. Feng Shui practitioners
(depending on the school of thought they endorse) may also be able to reveal to
you the ideal days for you to do certain major things such as getting married,
moving, buying a home, making business deals, and other important events.
Feng Shui can assist you in more areas of your life than just in how you should
decorate your home.
Intricate Feng Shui practices involve a lot of information. You can choose
how complicated you would like for your Feng Shui involvement to be. Some
people are more than happy to just dabble in Feng Shui when they are
attempting to find a new look for their home and allow the energy to flow a little
better.
It is up to you how many different aspects of Feng Shui you want to incorporate and how scientific you want to become.

Feng Shui is Vogue

MODERN TIMES
Feng Shui has experienced popularity in modern society. In the 1970’s
within the United States there was a surge of interest in ancient Chinese
methods and thought, and one of the theories to get recognized and utilized was
Feng Shui. Its popularity has grown throughout the years with a recent influx of
interest in Feng Shui as the term becomes more popular and familiar within
modern culture. Feng Shui has become so popular, as a matter of fact, that
some Americans have essentially created their own forms of Feng Shui and
turned it into either a religious idea or instead into a clever marketing ploy. Most
people who utilize Feng Shui within the United States do not get too terribly indepth
with the principles and instead simply use it as something they hope will
enhance their lives, yet they don’t put too much stock into it.

There are plenty of other people, however, who get quite serious when it comes to their Feng Shui and they do complex calculations in order to figure out the best placement of
everything within their home.

Yes, it’s vogue. People who have never dabbled in anything remotely exotic
may still develop an interest in Feng Shui for a few reasons.
There is also an abundance of information available about Feng Shui, so that makes it much easier for people to give it a try.
Feng Shui appeals to so many people because, although it’s still considered somewhat frivolous, it’s not generally considered pagan. In other words, although some religious groups frown upon the fundamental idea of Feng Shui (that you can somehow influence your environment through the layout of your surroundings), it isn’t necessarily likened
to devious behaviour. Consequently, many people who would never usually try
something like Feng Shui jump right in and try it. With enough famous and
influential people claiming that Feng Shui has been beneficial to their lives, it
makes other people want to give it a try. Besides, if a person’s favourite actor,
writer, or other celebrity declares Feng Shui to be a valid way to calm
surroundings, many people are more than willing to try it simply because it’s
trendy.
Everyone is looking for a way to make their homes more peaceful.
For many people, there is no way to actually lessen the busyness within their lives, so they instead turn to practices like Feng Shui, which are supposed to grant things like calm, harmony, and clarity without very much effort. Once you know the fundamentals of Feng Shui, it isn’t too hard to put them into practice.
Sometimes something as simple as moving some furniture around or changing the colour scheme of a room can help achieve a desired result.
Feng Shui offers a system that is relatively simple to follow and that claims to make a living space (or any other space for that matter) a nicer place to be.
With claims like these, it’s no wonder that people within modern
society are flocking toward Feng Shui and giving it a try. Feng Shui is being
used by people who come from families who have employed Feng Shui tactics
every generation for many years, but also by families who have no ties to
ancestors who ever would consider trying something like this. Some people are
attracted to the simplistic nature behind some Feng Shui principles. People who
can lose the clutter, take bulky electronics out of living areas, and simplify their
homes often find great relief from the process. If you are looking for something
to make your home more peaceful then Feng Shui might be worth a try. You
never know if you may get a fantastic result.

Thursday, February 4th, 2010

Who has not heard the words Feng shui? But what is it? how is it spelled correctly and most important of all: What can it do for me??

Most people have heard that Fung Shway ( this is actually how you pronounce it) has something to do with your furniture – the way you decorate your house and the placement of ornaments and plants around the living area.

But Feng Shui is much more than that. It has a lot to do with colours, engeries and last not least Feelings! Your own feelings and tasts come into it as well!

The ancient art of Fung shui ( another way of spelling it) can be quite daunting in its scientific approach – consultants can spend many hours measuring and calculating, however – you can go back to the basics, get an overview of the fundamental principals behind Feng Shui. relax, don’t get flustered and following yourown feelings in accordance with the Feng Shui principals.

Also, not many people realize you can take your very own Fung Shway remedies with you – just in case you have to stay overnight in a hotel room less than optimal in its lay out – simple little remedies like crystals or jewellry might be adequate to help you out.

Our ebook Feng Shui Decorating give a very comprehensive overview and gets you going on your way of bettering you life.
