Despite the current economic times, demand for Feng Shui services is growing as people are focusing more on achieving happiness, wellbeing and a sustainable lifestyle. More consumers are asking for Feng Shui advice to help them make the right property purchase decisions and to help them improve their health, wealth and happiness.

Have you ever walked into a home, and although everything looks fine, there is something that doesn't feel quite right? Do you know of a home where the occupants are having similar problems to the previous residents? Have you experienced misfortune with finances, relationships or health, since living in a particular home? These are examples of Feng Shui in action.

Feng Shui focuses on the flow of energy in our buildings and environment, and how this energy impacts us on a mental, physical and spiritual level. Each building has a unique map of energy that influences the health, wealth and relationships of the people living there.
The job of a Feng Shui consultant is to improve energy flow and create a space that is balanced to support one’s goals in life. This can be achieved by altering room and furniture layouts, changing traffic flow throughout a building, and by balancing the Five Elements of fire, earth, metal, water and wood.

An important aspect of a Feng Shui consultation is the identification of the wealth sector of a building. The wealth sector is unique in every property, and is best located in an open and active space such as the main entrance or open plan living area. Having the wealth sector located in a confined room or cupboard can have a negative influence on finances.

If the wealth sector is in a practical location, a water feature or swimming pool will be recommended to activate prosperity. Water features have a powerful influence in Feng Shui, as they amplify the energy of a space, regardless of whether it’s positive or negative. The correct placement of a water feature is critical in Feng Shui.

The best time to seek Feng Shui advice is at the planning stages of building design or at the time of property purchase. Feng Shui can help developers and investors to make the most of their properties and create harmonious homes that feel good and support the happiness, health and prosperity of the people living there.
