Feng Shui and Teen Boys Bedroom
by Kim C., Essential Feng Shui Enthusiast
I was visiting my girlfriend and family in Houston (years ago) after I moved to Atlanta. When I was looking at their new house I stumbled into her 14 year old son’s room. I flew out of there and asked the mom what was up with this disaster. She said “I know. He won’t clean it up. I’ve tried.”
When her son came home, I knocked on his door. I stated the obvious, what a mess the room was. He wasn’t interested. I asked if I could talk to him for a few minutes, and he boringly agreed. I cleared a corner on his bed to sit and asked how things were going for him: School – ok. Was he sleeping well – no, not really. What else was going on – Brett and his step-dad had been fighting a lot, his girlfriend was mad at him again. I asked if he would like these areas of his life to “fixed”. That got his attention as he gave a sincere “yes”. I told him I would help him. I told him how I had been reading about Feng Shui and how energy could improve his life with a few changes and a cleaner room.

Love from our friend Casey:
Hey Terah & Liv:
First of all, thank you for the webinar it was great! Your joke about the refrigerator-looking at it, wondering what was in it, then having to eat everything in it- made me laugh a lot! I love the new word “ESSENTIAL-IZING,” it’s so much more empowering then “downsizing,” and makes me want to start doing things that I have definitely been putting off…LOL!
Going forward I will definitely be taking pictures, and am bummed I didn’t think of it before I recently tackled my kitchen counters-but mine is a funny story even without pictures, so here goes:

Essential Feng Shui and Evidence-based Design
By Cheryl Janis, Essential Feng Shui® Practitioner
Science confirms what Feng Shui has known for thousands of years…
Twelve years ago when I began my profession as a self-employed Essential Feng Shui® Practitioner (after graduating from the Western School of Feng Shui) I had no idea there was any Western science that proved a built environment could contribute to healing. I simply kept experiencing powerful space and life transformations among clients who hired me to Feng Shui their homes (and later with holistic and integrative boutique healthcare practices) to be more nurturing, warm and cozy, and aesthetically pleasing.

Community Love: Bagua Success!
Juicy gratitude from our friend Nicole, who found Bagua gems in The Western Guide to Feng Shui:
My boyfriend, step-children and I live together in a home we recently purchased. We did some renovations but I always sensed there was something off. It was kind of blah, and the amount of arguments and unhappiness in our home were growing rapidly. We’d never been the kind of people who fight all the time. I did a study of the bagua map, but it didn’t dawn on me until a few weeks later that our love area was lying almost entirely outside the house! I went to work immediately to make changes with landscaping and screening outside. It was the side of our house where things like electrical meters were located. I even found a rusty razor blade on top of the utility box. We also stored our garbage cans there. This was less than one week ago. I cannot even express how entirely different the mood is almost immediately. I relocated furniture in that part of the house as well to a marked difference. It’s truly amazing. Even my partner remarked how great it looks and feels now. From utilitarian to bamboo and palm like the beaches of Hawaii that we love so much.

by Kac Young PhD, ND, DCH
WSFS Alumni and Practitioner
All the talk in the New Year about resolutions won’t get you anywhere but disappointed. Statistics show that only 8% of people who make New Year’s Resolutions are successful. Why is that? Are we all losers?
Far from it. There is a definite secret to making changes stick. You can make all the resolutions you want but until you change your beliefs, you will not succeed. The way to change your reality is to change what you believe.
