The idea behind feng shui is simple: to improve any aspect of your
life, create the right atmosphere to support it. All the strands of
this ancient practice come together in this intelligently
organized, visual reference that emphasizes feng shui's practical
benefits. Real life applications and examples enhance lucid
explanations of the fundamental concepts: chi energy, yin and yang,
the five elements, and eight trigrams. All the essential tools are
laid out, too--everyday objects like mirrors, plants, and fountains
that keep the energy flowing smoothly. A comprehensive directory
shows how these principles can enhance relationships, finances,
creativity, career, health, and spiritual connections.
What if you could always have a sparkling clean and organised home by
just spending 15 minutes per day on your housework? The 15-Minute Clean
will teach you how to do just that.
