Q & A – Colonic Therapy Office and Prosperity
Q. I am considering renting a space to do a colon hydrotherapy business in the "prosperity" section of a large day spa establishment, but the owner (somewhat aware of feng shui) expressed concern that due to the nature of my business (flushing things down the drain!) it might not be the best thing for the health and properity of my business!
I disagree- colonics are about promoting balance and flow in people’s lives, and I think that any potential conflicts in the purpose/bagua can be offset with the use of some good feng shui strategy. Am I correct in my thinking, or does she have a valid concern?
I would greatly appreciate a response. Hope you are doing great! Leslie S. Arizona
A. Here’s my thoughts on your being in the spa’s Prosperity area. Feng Shui springs from Taoism, which observes that all things in Nature are equal, each with their own unique gifts to give. When a colonic area is set up to be aesthetically pleasing, clean, and fully functional, it is an equal member of the family of treatments that are available to the client. We can give more meaning to colonics by saying that they remove the old to make room for the new. This is a key in creating Prosperity – to remove anything old that blocks the full receiving of the new. Colonics are the archetype of this flow of energy.
I hope this helps. Please know that if the spa wishes to consult with a Feng Shui practitioner, we have an Essential Feng Shui Consultants Directory.
With Love and Blessings, Terah
Q & A – Chinese Art Presentation
Q. I have been asked to speak on Feng Shui at a local art museum/gallery that is hosting ancient Chinese art. I’ll need to tie the talk in to ancient Chinese culture.
Would you or someone you know have a talk already prepared, or an idea? I usually talk on the miracles of Feng Shui. I am not wanting to reinvent the wheel if there is some information you could share.
Read MoreQ & A – Feng Shui Distance Training
Q: Hello there, As I live in Australia, is it possible to complete the Practitioner training via distance education? It would be terrific if it was!
Many thanks, Gabriele C.
A: Hello Gabriele,
Although we don’t right now have a distance practitioner training course, we are almost ready to release our first feng shui online class segment on the Bagua Map. It will be available to the public within the next couple weeks!!
Within the next year, we are planning to release other online segments as well, and these will culminate into an Essential Feng Shui Practitioner Training Certification.
And we’ll let you know as soon as it’s ready!
Liv Kellgren, Programs Director
How exciting Liv!
It seems like some of us will benefit from completing the on-line courses because as they are released, we’ll be able to spend good quality time with each component and by the end of it, still achieve a Practitioner Training Certification!! Yeah! It’ll probably also assist those who completed the Training in a short period of time and now would like to do a refresher.
I look forward to hearing from you when the Bagua Map Class is available.
Thank you for your good work.
Gabriele
YES! And we’ll still offer our Practitioner Training Immersion Program for those who would rather complete the training in a shorter period of time. We’ll be sure to keep you all posted as great opportunities arise for you! Liv

Q & A – Men at Western School of Feng Shui?
Q: Is your school only for women? Are men included?
Herbert J.
A: Herbert, That’s a great question! It may seen like that as our students are primarily women, 92% to be exact. In each class of 15-21 we’ll average one male student ("average" meaning most often there will be one, in some classes there will be none, and rarely there will be two). Recently, our male students have been real estate agents, engineers, and architects. One male alumni from 2004 is now the co-host of a Feng Shui TV show in Spanish. His mother-in-law (also an alumni) is the other co-host and they are based in Texas. Another male alumni from 2001 worked in the corporate offices of a fast-food chain. He is the team leader for the design teams who open new branches. Another male alumni has partnered with his alumni wife and they are happy Essential Feng Shui practitioners in the mid-west. I could go on…
Interestingly, most of the male students who come through our Feng Shui Practitioner Training Program have a few traits in common: They have been in the military and are now passionate about Eastern Philosophy including all types of martial arts and the healing arts, such as chiropractic medicine, acupuncture, Reiki, Qi Gong, and of course Feng Shui.
Male or female, everyone who comes through our program does so for their own reasons: to become an Essential Feng Shui Practitioner, to combine Essential Feng Shui with their current profession (such as interior design, organizing, real estate, other healing modalities, etc.), to learn as much as possible so that they can Feng Shui their own home and the homes of their family and friends, and the list continues. If you’d like to connect with someone who has similar goals as you do, it would be a pleasure to introduce you to each other.
Please know that we have never excluded anyone from our programs based on sex, race, religion, politics or otherwise. We welcome with open arms people regardless of their past or present affilitations.
We look forward to supporting you on all your Feng Shui adventures! Liv Kellgren, WSFS Programs Director
Read MoreQ & A – Personality Assessment Questionnaire
Q. I did the questionnaire regarding determining the elements dominant in my life. I came up with the score combination of 64, 57, 60, 65 and 68. With such a tight cluster of numbers, would it be safe to conclude there is no dominant element, rather they all share almost equal weight? — Beth
Read MoreQ & A – Bagua Mirrors and Neighbors
Q. The neighbor behind our home can see directly into our sunroom. I read that a bagua mirror is a good cure for this. Does the size of the mirror matter? Should it be a concave or convex mirror. I also read that it cannot go in the room. Do I have to hang it on the roof or can I hang it on top of the sunroom; on the roof ledge?
-Thank you, Liliana R.
