"Feng Shui to Improve energy levels of our Residence/office”
Scientists long ago have proven that everything in existence is made up of energy called Chi and
everything around us is constantly interacting with this energy within us; which can either positive or
negative. Feng Shui can help transform the negative energy within a living space into the positive
energy.
Feng Shui provides a new perspective for viewing life and the space in which we live and work. Its
principles recognize the influence of nature and energy in the environment, using our understanding of
how energy in living and working spaces impacts and affects the quality of our lives. Feng Shui creates
spaces that are in alignment with our own sense of harmony and serenity. It allows us to alter and use
the energy of our environment to our best advantage; improving not just the aesthetics but also the
feeling of our surroundings. Achieving a harmonious balance of the energy in a space and our goals and
intentions for life, allows us to flow more easily towards achieving all that we want.
Following are the things/tools that can increase the overall positive energy of our house/office
immediately.
Flowers – For Growth
Plants play an important role in Feng Shui because they bring a life force into the home and help to keep
the air fresh & lively. Plants in & around the house are source of balance and prosperity since Green is
the colour of growth and harmony.
Depending on their shape, plants create different types of energy.
Upright plants with pointed leaves are yang, and are useful in the South and in corners to move energy.
Round-leaved and drooping plants are more yin and calming, and best placed in the North.Plants should
be healthy as sick plants and those with pale colour Or which shed leaves and flowers profusely will
create stagnant energy.

Feng Shui are described below:-

Mirrors – For Balance
Mirrors are powerful Feng Shui tools because their reflective quality has the effect of sending shar chi
back to its origin. Mirrors also widen narrow, cramped corners and extend walls to make up for missing
corners.
However, they should be used carefully. They must not reflect the main door, nor should they reflect
toilets. Mirrors are auspicious in dinning rooms but should not reflect the bed in the bedroom.Mirrors
are especially useful in small spaces where theyapparently double the size of the area.
Bagua mirrors are used to protect a house from malign energies which may attack the occupants. They
are used on front doors to deflect the influence of negative energy sources i.e. harsh corners, tall
objects penetrating roads, roadside trees or poles, H.T. cables etc. Bagua mirrors represent a yin energy
cycle and as such should never be hung inside the house or they will affect the energies of the
occupants.

Career & Family Growth respectively; but placing a mirror on South, Southeast or Southwest wall
destroys health, reputation and harmony.
