I am an owner of a business and I recently read that Feng Shui can help considerably in bringing balance and harmony into one’s life; in simple terms, can you explain its principles and how it will benefit me and my business?

Feng Shui (pronounced Fung Shway) which literally means “Wind & Water” two natural elements that flow and circulate the earth, is an ancient philosophy, science and art that shows us how our environments can affect how the energy flows or does not flow in a space. It teaches us about the dynamic relationship between humans and our environments and allows us to see that where we live and where we work can affect us physically and emotionally. Consciously arranging furniture in a space, in order to harness and manipulate the energy goes to create a healthy and peaceful flow that benefits both the nervous system and promotes clarity. Environments that are visually appealing and physically comfortable create positive energy and a sense of balance and are more likely to make you happy, creative and productive. De-clutter, de-clutter, de-clutter; clutter attracts stagnant energy and the combination of grime; dirt and clutter automatically blocks the flow of energy.

If you want to promote financial flow; optimal health; good relationships, then unblock the Ch’i!!

It is important to remember that in business you should take into account the triple bottom line, People, Planet and Profit. That is to say that financial performance is no longer the only measure of a company’s success but environmental and social performance is a significant part of the equation!
