what is feng shui?
- Feng Shui is both an art and science which is designed to help us bring our space into both balance and flow.
- Feng Shui is one part ancient principles (through a simple and modern approach), two parts common sense and one part leap of faith.
- Your own intentions are essential to the process. There is not one way to approach a space, which can sometimes be confusing and can also be inspiring.
when is a good time to feng shui my space?
Beginnings
Some people have the luxury of working on a space from the foundation up. This may include design, construction or working in a raw space.
- This could mean moving into an empty building, floor or apartment.
- It can also apply to grand openings, housewarmings or launches.
- The earlier these principles can be considered, the less work it might create in the architecture/design stage, painting and construction or in the furniture placement stage.
Feeling Stuck
Some people are in a space so long that they become numb to their environment. It can sometimes be helpful to have an extra set of eyes to help you shake things up.
Times of Transition
- Breakups
- Birthdays
- New Years
- Change of seasons and
- Before or after construction
Endings
- Manifesting a new space
- Deaths
- Outgrowing your space
what can feng shui help me with?
Feng shui also helps support people through specific areas of their life, including:
- Relationships (manifesting a partner, healing, more passion/sex)
- Prosperity and Abundance (money drains, the two types of money challenges, upleveling your abundance)
- Career (jump starting your stagnant work life, manifesting more clients, switching career tracks)
- Health (insomnia, infertility, low energy)
what does a consultation consist of?
There are 3 stages to a consultation. The check in, the walk through and the blessing.
1. The “check in” is where
- you tell me a bit about you and your goals…then I ask a few questions to glean a clearer picture.
- Then I would share some basic feng shui principles so that when I make my suggestions in the space it is clear WHY so that it is clear that I am not just saying “do this, do that” as if it is my opinion. You know? (This process can be as long as you want it to be. I usually follow the clients lead on this.)
2. The “walk through” is where we look at the space as a whole and I make suggestions that
- you can do immediately
- things that might take a short amount of time and
- more intermediate and long term suggestions (so that you won’t be overwhelmed and feel that everything needs to be done at the same time.)
3. The “blessing” is (usually) where we might
- move some things around
- hang some cures (things to balance the energy of the space)
- and at the end I perform a blessings to clear out old energies on a space and then welcome in some new energy. (If this is a virtual session I can do a remote blessing with you, or offer suggestions on how to perform the blessing yourself.)
An initial consultation on an apartment or small house take a few hours. If you have a larger space or property please email me at info@thefengshuiguy.com for inquiries.
