Feng Shui is the Chinese art of designing your environment to promote
success, health, wealth and happiness. The philosophical
underpinning of Feng Shui is that everything in your environment affects
your health and goals. The principles of Feng Shui have been
developed over centuries and claim to be useful in designing your
surroundings to enhance "chi," the energy that exists within and
flows between objects and people. Feng Shui means "wind and
water" and it focuses on promoting balance and harmony in your
surroundings.
The Chinese have long conceived of a magical link between mankind and
the landscape - that mankind is an integral part of the universe, is swept
along and controlled by its flow, and shares its fate. Feng Shui
springs from these ideas and seeks to enhance and harmonize with the
environment rather than deplete and dominate it.
Feng Shui is an environmental science that describes how the
observations and formulas developed by Chinese scholars more than 4000
years ago are applied to the design of an environment and to the placement
of various objects within that environment. The energy of your
surroundings is directly related to how the furniture and other objects
are placed in your home or office, as well as to where the environment is
located.
A person's energy level can be increased and enhanced by
simply modifying and improving the spatial orientation of their living and
working space.
