The Healing Home

Classical Feng Shui from a Modern Point of View

Our homes reflect us -- that's no secret. The correlary of that truth is that we reflect our homes -- we absorb the energy, mood, and messages of the environment we live in. The ancient Chinese Daoists understood this and developed a system to study and "cure" the energy of the home. That system was called Feng Shui, and it was considered a healing art, one of the Eight Branches of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Feng Shui, like Chinese Medicine, grew out of Five-Element Theory, which explained the energetic properties of matter as represented by Fire, Earth, Metal, Water, and Wood.

I have been thoroughly trained in the tradition of Classical compass-style Feng Shui to balance the energy of the home. I also bring to it an understanding of the ways our homes can support or undermine us on a conscious and unconscious level. As a hypnotherapist, I see the home as a projection of both personality and soul. My job is to help my clients "program" their homes with the positive messages they need in order to achieve their goals.

Classical Feng Shui is the type of Feng Shui that has historically been most widely practiced in China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan. The techniques of the compass school examine the house relative to the cardinal directions. (There are interesting parallels between this ancient practice and modern solar design.) In my work I use a unique instrument -- a special compass, developed by my teacher, Roger Green, that offers a translation of the traditional Chinese compass for English-speaking practitioners of Feng Shui.

Consultations

Clients may opt for a one-visit or two-visit format.

One-visit format:

I interview the client to determine life goals. Then together we walk through the dwelling and yard. I take compass measurements and do an EMF (electromagnetic field) survey. Guided by my client's preferences and my compass and EMF readings, I make recommendations to improve the energy of the home. A brief written report follows in the mail.

Two-visit format:

In the two-visit format, I return for a second visit with a plan of the house and a full written report that summarizes my findings. The plan illustrates my recommendations regarding the Five Elements with colorful stamps; it also includes the lucky stars of the home, which I find by making a Flying Star chart for the home based on its year of construction. The detailed report incorporates a personal Five-Element Analysis for each member of the household. This is used to determine which elements are most supportive to the client(s).

Please call for further details and fees.
