The ancient Chinese art of Feng Shui dates back more than 3,500 years and literally means “wind water” combining the spirit (wind) with the body (water). The goal is to create the perfect conditions for the flow of positive energy in your living space so you can live your best life. There are several schools of thought in Feng Shui, but basically creating a sacred living space means balancing equally the forces of yin and yang or combining masculine and feminine aesthetics.

In Feng Shui, five elements are used to achieve this balance: metal, earth, fire, water and wood. The most inviting homes have a mixture of these elements with wooden tables, attractive green plants, soothing earth tones, fireplace and metal lighting fixtures. Recent decorating trends included indoor fountains to add the cool of sparkling water.

The way we balance these elements and contrast them with masculine and feminine aspects of décor, creates an pleasing atmosphere for how we live. When the aesthetics of a room are balanced, there is a certain soothing energy that seems to flow and permeates everything and everyone.

The first step in applying Feng Shui to your home is to remove the clutter by deciding what you need and what you need to pass along. The remaining belongings are assigned a permanent location and are kept in their place when not in use.

Your personal living space is where you go to relax and recharge. You share your life and love with the people closest to you. Your home is the container for making memories, raising a family and building a life. Using Feng Shui can be a practical way to help create a soothing and very functional home.
