The movement of energy in any building influences the thought process and the prospects one can attain. Hence, orienting the home or office to harmonise the flow of energy and availing the support of specific Feng Shui enhancers to empower the good fortune is essential.

Feng Shui has been used in the home to improve such things as wealth and careers, find new partners, start families, help children to study, improve family harmony and later in life to support and improve our health so that we can enjoy the wealth which we have accumulated over the years. In short, Feng Shui at home can be used to influence just about every aspect  of our lives.

Feng Shui teaches us that everything is energy, and we are in a constant energy exchange with everything around us. Thus, it is very important to create a Feng Shui home that has a happy and healthy energy. By relating to the spiritual dimension, Feng Shui becomes more relevant to our modern day life. With our demanding, high-pressure lifestyles today, we need ways with which we can enhance and bring in some much-needed balance to our lives.

A home or business has interior factors and exterior factors that influence you and your mood. Shape of the house, floor plan, positions of bedrooms, kitchens, bathrooms, desks, have an unseen psychological effect on you. History of the house, electro-magnetic energies emitted by electrical connections and cable, telephone, satellite dishes can have either positive or negative effects on you depending upon the sort of person you are. Similarly, beams, lights, plants, water and influences of people surrounding you also have some role to play.

From a Feng Shui perspective, we can discern various kinds of property, some, which possess intrinsic good energy and fortunes, which benefits everyone’s life. There are certain areas and neighbourhoods, which tend to have better Feng Shui and prosperity than other neighbourhoods. The effect of surroundings and the layout or planning of the locality is the key to this kind of prosperity. Adapt some of the following to enhance the Feng Shui of your space:

• Paperweights can help promote growth and strength.  Circular paperweights conjure the stability of earth and are considered good.

• Add brighter, more fully-coloured light, bad lighting makes you physically feel bad. Sunlight is actually used as a treatment for sleep disorders and depression.

• Flower essences are effective for good vibrations. Flower essences are considered to be “vibrational medicine.”

• Aquarium with fishes bring moving water into living  space, which promotes change of energy.

• Move things within your home to change the energy and move out stagnation. This ensures free flow of Chi within your home.

• Getting organised can boost productivity, while clearing clutter can provide a space that allows creativity to flow. Hence make changes and bring in art to enhance creativity.

• Discard broken objects and ensure that crystal objects are cleansed regularly and kept clean.
