You can incorporate Feng Shui with just one simple piece of decor or throughout the entirety of your home.
Feng Shui, is typically referred to as an ancient Chinese philosophy and art form centered around the placement, arrangement, and color of objects, buildings, and spaces in relation to the flow of energy (known as “ch’i” or “qi”).
The literal translation of Feng Shui is “wind water”, and it emphasizes the harmonious interplay of these elements in our daily lives.
But, Feng Shui is all that - and then some!
Its goal is to bring balance and harmony to all areas of one's life, whether it's through the home, office, or any other space.
This is achieved by evaluating the space in relation to the Bagua, meaning eight areas.
These areas include wealth, fame, relationships, family, health, creativity, knowledge, career and helpful people. Each area, known as guas, are linked to a specific color, shape, direction and element.
By incorporating the principles of Feng Shui, one can activate these areas and evoke more positive ch’i into their lives and home.
Feng Shui is so much more than just placing money trees and bamboo in every corner (and if you’re interested, placing this money tree in the southeast sector of your home is a surefire way to increase the energy of wealth!).
It is an intricate philosophy that, when applied correctly, can elevate both the look and feel of a space.
Integrating Feng Shui principles into your design scheme can create a sense of balance and harmony, enhance the flow of energy, and ultimately promote a positive and peaceful environment.
Don't be fooled by those who dismiss Feng Shui as "woo-woo".
Its benefits have been embraced by many cultures around the world, and it has become an increasingly popular practice in modern times.
So why not give Feng Shui a try? You might be surprised at the transformation it can bring to your home or workspace.
Let the good ch’i roll through your hallways and experience the positive impact that Feng Shui can have on your life!
