FENG SHUI

For many people, home has become something much more than the place they live—it’s a sanctuary

that offers an environment that is relaxing, cheerful, uncluttered, and full of comfortable spaces.

As a result, the ancient Chinese study of natural and built environments,

known as Feng Shui, has become increasingly popular in Seattle homes and Western culture.

Feng Shui can be a very practical solution for creating a harmonious environment.

Here are some interesting facts about Feng Shui:

In literal definition Feng Shui means wind and water. The ancient Chinese practice of Feng Shui is the

art of recognizing the energies of the earth; it’s an interior design form that has promoted harmony

and balance in Chinese culture for over 3,000 years.

Feng Shui experts believe that when the balance of energy is done right, the homeowner will feel

happier, kids may learn better, and the home will look and feel better.

The concept of Feng Shui is to create an environment that is harmonious to the homeowner.

One that supports health and good fortune with the placement of objects, use of color, landscaping

and the use of the five elements—fire, earth, metal, water, and wood.

In order to avoid spending an excessive amount of money, concentrate on areas in your home that

you spend the most time in. Improving your home’s Feng Shui can be as simple as the placement

of a plant, the adding of a mirror to a wall, or simply rearranging your furniture.

If you would like to discover how to apply the concepts of Feng Shui to your home,

I recommend visiting, www.amazon.com; here you will find a plethora of books, tools, videos,

CDs, and DVDs that can get you started on this ancient Chinese tradition. You can also go to

the International Feng Shui Guild’s Web site to locate a practitioner referral list for

for seattle home owners.
