F.A.Q. (Frequently
Asked Questions)
Q:
WHAT is Feng Shui?
Feng Shui is the system of managing the 'sea' of light
and oxygen we swim in every day. It is an ancient
Chinese analysis of the subtle connection between our every
day environment and the quality of life each of us
lives.
Feng Shui is based upon the existence of "Qi" (pronounced 'chee').
Qi (sometimes spelled as Chi) is invisible energy that
surrounds us at all times. You may not always able to see it, but
it can be calculated. Think of fish swimming in an
aquarium - they are intimately affected by the water they live
in and I'm sure they don't stop to consider this fact. Take a fish out of it's
environment, or change something in the water and we all know what happens!
You and I are exactly the same. Our environment (the land, air, light and
structures surrounding us) has a huge impact on the quality of our lives and
the ability to obtain or sustain our goals, and to establish the quality of life
we each experience.
Q:
WHERE is Feng Shui used?
The flow of this invisible
energy (Qi) in our surroundings profoundly affects the way
things unfold in our lives. None of us is a victim. We
each choose our homes and work spaces for conscious and
unconscious reasons. We find ourselves in a house,
apartment, office or mansion for good reasons. Issues in
the place we occupy may mirror our issues.
The essence of Feng Shui is to activate the positive
"qi" in your environment, cure any negative "qi", and create the right quality
of energy to support your goals and dreams. It involves looking at both the
exterior and interior of any location or building. Contrary to popular
belief, it is NOT a new-age type of interior decorating. It is a 4000 year
old earth science and mathematical systems, used to analyze the environment and
then harness the naturally occurring " qi" found in a particular location.
Changes in an environment (usually
referred to as
'cures') are accomplished in a variety of ways which may include
changing how you use the space, which bedroom or office you use, artwork, colors
used, lighting, water features and 'yes' - the placement of
furniture. The most effective 'cures' are
those which involve using the items you already have in your own
home or office.
Feng Shui has gained wide acceptance in the west in the past
30 years and is used successfully by many homeowners, businesses, builders and
land developers.

your space affecting the outcomes in
your life?"
Q: WHAT
is a Feng Shui Consultation (or "audit") ?
A Feng Shui consultation
(or audit) is a powerful opportunity to change your life by
changing your environment. Every consultation is different
because it is specific to the unique concerns and goals of
the individuals living and using the space examined.
Your consultation will provide many valuable recommendations
and explanations, which are then used to create an environment
which helps meet your needs and realize your goals.
Q:
WHEN should I use Feng Shui?
An audit
(or Feng Shui consultation), can and should be performed anywhere that people spend time. A consultation can balance your existing environment, help
you choose a new home or office, plan a move, or review plans
for proposed projects or renovations.
- Residential - homes, apartments, condos, new construction, renovation projects.
- Commercial - offices, retail spaces, outdoor spaces and gardens,
new corporate construction
- Specific Needs -
poor bottom line?, low academic grades?, failing relationships?,
stalled career?
Q:
WHAT information do I need to
provide?
- A floor plan of your home or office (drawn to scale) if this
is an existing building. (Builders plans or blue prints
are fine).
- When selecting the site of a new home, office or leased space
(prior to signing an offer or starting construction), we need to discuss your future
plans and goals and review the site and floor plans to determine
if this space will in fact help you achieve your goals or what (if
any) changes are needed to the construction plans to make this
happen.
- Completion of questionnaire (provided), requesting birthdates of
all people living/using the space and specific questions about
the building, people and upcoming plans for renovations,
additions etc.
- If this is a "long distance audit" - current pictures of the
site will also be required. (These are audits which are
completed in full, without the need for a personal visit to the
physical site. They are equally as accurate as an 'on-site'
audit and allow us to service our clients from around the world.)

Q:
WHAT 'happens' during an audit
appointment?
After arriving at your location I ask for a
tour of your space so I can match floor plans to what I see and
examine the surrounding area. We then discuss your goals and
intentions and the reasons for my visit. Then I require space in
which to work by myself, so I can focus as I calculate the
specific information your home provides. Once completed, we sit
together again and I
explain my findings and discuss suggested changes and improvements.
Residential consultations can take
from 2 to 6 hours depending upon the clients concerns, goals and
budget. Written recommendations are provided with the detailed
copy of your floor plan.
Business or commercial consultations often require additional
time. Estimates are provided at the initial interview. |
