Feng Shui means "wind and water” when literally translated. Finding a balance between these two elements allows positive energy, or Ch'i, to flow freely.

Homes located near a water source and protected from the wind by hills or mountains are considered ideal. We recreate this desirable environment by balancing elements within an area, allowing Ch’i to enter and enhance the space in countless ways.

Feng Shui is really all about balance, striking and maintaining a nice equilibrium between yin and yang, as well as the five elements (Wood, Water, Metal, Earth and Fire) throughout any interior or exterior space. It is about ridding one's place (hence, life) of clutter, and keeping only those things we hold nearest and dearest, letting go of that which we have long since abandoned sentimentally or have no further need of. Energy gets stuck in piles of papers, old clothing, broken furnishings that have been banished to the garage or basement. Energy thrives in clean, uncluttered spaces, in comfortable furniture, in the ever-present dance of masculine and feminine.

Balance is the key to living; and while yoga and meditation help us to balance our bodies and minds, so feng shui does the same for our homes, work places, gardens and backyards.
