Urban Feng Shui
Feng Shui means Wind and water and it ooriginates in China. Based on nature it was developed to create balance between people and their environments to ensure health and good fortune. The science of Feng Shui began 3000 years ago and is a complex study of the interconnectedness of all things, such as the seen, (surroundings), and the unseen, (energy and intention). The techniques have developed with the understanding that the earth (our land) is alive and filled with energy. The philosophy is this energy has an influence on our wellbeing as occupants.
Different cultures of our world share with us their awareness and developed understanding of the power of placement and as the world becomes more connected these separate wisdom’s are beginning to integrate. As they do, the learning begins anew making ancient wisdom fresh and relevant to our times.
There is a strong symbolic cultural aspect to feng shui. Once introducing this scientific art into your environment you will notice powerful results. You will understand why feng shui is used in homes and business environments all over the world.
Urban Feng Shui is based upon the Chinese Feng Shui philosophy grounded in Tibetan Buddhism and reflects a connection to the culture of Northern and Southern B.C.
Techniques are based upon the balance of energy, yin & yang, the relationships of life using an ancient Feng Shui compass, the baqua, relationships to the five feng shui elements, (earth, water, wood, fire and metal), and geomancy.
There is attention to detail in the space, how it is being used, the current experiences, and the surrounding areas. In homes the surrounding neighbours are considered and in business the surrounding businesses locations.
Two ways you can enjoy Urban Feng Shui is through a personal consultation and through group classes.
Why Urban Feng Shui?
As a consultant I would observe people’s homes, workspaces and gardens and recognize that what I viewed around me represented exactly what they would share with me privately about their relationships, hopes and dreams. It was a movie into their lives experiences.
Life styles can be enhanced by recognition of how you influence your surroundings and how your surroundings influence you. As you unconsciously create your environments your environment will lock you in to that experience. If your surroundings are chaos, your life is chaos. Missed appointments, accidents, always trying to catch up. Everything is a burden and there is no pleasure, quiet time, relaxation and simple romance!
