The Feng Shui Alternative. Healing Your Environment

There is nothing that can improve your life faster than a clean and organised home and office.

Feng Shui or the Indian Vaastu Shastra which is similar in many respects but lesser known has an instinctive feel to me.  While I do not religiously engage in the moving of furniture or placing of fish I can feel a difference in the way a space is organised.  There is a natural preference to organise my house in the way Feng Shui practitioners describe anyway even without the description of the flow of chi.

As with any alternative the practice of Feng Shui works best combined with real action.  I remember picking up a book on Feng Shui and the relationship between ill health and the layout and location of buildings.  I respect it enough to consult with an expert before the kids and I build that straw bale home.

Has anyone here ever hired someone to assess their space?  What was that like?

I haven’t, but I have checked out several books which are often written for the Northern Hemisphere.  Because of the confusion between North and South eventually I read so much conflicting material I abandoned most of the stuff.  Also I learnt I’m not a great fish Mom (they are in safe hands now).  This in itself is probably bad Feng Shui.

I still maintain a small (but hopeful) collection of water fountains, symbolic artwork and wind chimes.

Just in case.
