Feng Shui: For Your Heath?

In recent years, feng shui has been a term used in America, mostly by interior designers, to try to get people to spend money on rearranging their rooms in their homes, thinking it will rearrange their lives also. However, it's actually an ancient art science meaning "wind-water", and developed in China over 3,000 years ago. It teaches people to balance the energy (chi) in any given space to insure good fortune and health. (Meaning, its a cleaner and not as cluttered version of your room before you spent all that money redesigning it.)


In English, its pronounced fuhng-shway, and is utilized by a bagua (below) to maximize the enhancement of energy througout the room. By enhancing the energy, it is told that the person's life will also be enhanced.



This type of health is natural and mental. If you really believe in it and go all out with it, it should satisfy you. However, I dont believe it's really nessary if you dont have the time of money to redesign and rearrange the right way. A recent news article talks more about how feng shui is being used in American more as a health feature than a design feature.
