FENG SHUI

SPACE AS REMEDY

Feng Shui is the ancient Taoist practice of observing and learning from our surroundings. Informed by the wisdom of nature, physical and energetic adjustments are made to guide beneficial energy [Chi, Ki, Prana, etc] and harmonize Elements so inhabitants and spaces are deeply nourished.

During a Feng Shui* consultation your existing or potential home, work space, or land is assessed to consider how the natural and built environment may impact overall well-being and specific life areas. Many aspects are considered including your personal constitution and health, the greater and immediate landscape, site plan and floor plan, object placement, elements, colors, and more.

‘AS WITHIN, SO WITHOUT’ : Fascinating patterns can appear across scales as internal conditions are often subconsciously reflected in the external environment. Consciously correcting imbalances or negative patterns that symbolically appear in external space brings awareness to subtle actions and thoughts, and the opportunity to shift mindset and behavior.

WU XING : Central to Feng Shui and our overall practice are the Taoist Elemental phases [WOOD, FIRE, EARTH, METAL, WATER]. Wu Xing** is an intuitive and logical method for assessing the constitution of environments, people, relationships and activities, and conveniently corresponds to building materials and features. We personally tap into the wisdom of Wu Xing throughout the day to assess our spaces, our clients and ourselves.

THE BAGUA AND LIFE AREAS : A main tool of Feng Shui, the Bagua is a ‘map’ overlaid on a site. It can help identify life areas in need of support, Elemental conflicts and other opportunities for balancing and harmonization.

ENVIRONMENTAL CURES : Recommended adjustments [remedies or ‘cures’] may include intentional changes to layout, color and décor, landscaping, transcendental cures, land ceremonies, space clearing, geopuncture and personal energy practices.

We are not rigid in our practice and refer to the time tested wisdom of Feng Shui to assess and balance impacts of land forms and structures, support client needs and enhance the intention of the design rather than dictating.

*We practice BTB and Landform Feng Shui, using the primary/natural entrance to a site or building vs. Compass methods, which use the cardinal directions. We believe ‘good Feng Shui’ is based on realistic and relatable applications of traditional principles.

**Wu Xing is akin to the Elements of many spiritual traditions and the Ayurvedic Doshas.

SPACE CLEARING + RITUALS

Healing spaces include building a respectful relationship with the land and structures that support and shelter us. We start with deep listening to understand what is needed and welcome by the space.

SPACE CLEARING : shifting ‘stuck’ or outdated energy on existing buildings or the land and welcoming in new Chi

LAND CEREMONIES : sharing intentions for the space, groundbreaking, releasing trauma

TREE CEREMONIES : preparing a tree friend and nature spirits for removal or heavy pruning / limb removal
