Hey all, sometimes i have been plummeted with questions on what is good feng shui. so here i will try to explain it in layman terms to my knowledge.

here are a few basic check points to note before you should even consult a master. :

theres nothing mystical about feng shui (not magic or some kind of religion or tribal charm). Feng Shui is just an art of living. How people find it most comfortable to design their dwellings that will make them most productive mentally and physically.

So the bottom line: feng shui is natural living and finding the best to suit the people living in the place.

* just a note: after the basics (physical layout) of what we know about feng shui. i have experienced a spiritual stage where the unexplained intersects with Feng Shui. that part we will not try to dwell as it requires more research and gets complicated.

1) Clutter Free - this is really really and i mean REALLY important. Clear up your place. if your place looks like a dump with loads of unnecessary things everywhere, volia! you have failed the first step of feng shui. (this is what masters would say as the obstruction of and messy QI).

Clear up the mess!! store away items you dont use. Invest in a cabinate, sell off on ebay or gumtree online sites. Donate it. whatever you do, don’t let it clutter around.

Storage Boxes! good for the short term by it should not be there for long. try to get rid of them as you go long. Less clutter = less things to worry about and less mental pressure = better lifestyle and you can concentrate on what you need to do.

2) Clean neutral bedroom - this is where you spend 30% of your life for heavens sake. keep it absolute noise free / clutter free / visitor free / damp free. it should and must be the most relaxing room in your house. (unless you like to rock and roll in your room).

Get a good strong firm bed with no obstructions about you like low celling, fans.
Keep the colour of the wall smoothing and neutral. and try to use warm colour lighting.

remember Stress free environment.

3) Filing and Documents - keeping everything in your life simple. make sure you file your bills, letters, correspondents, invoices etc. in order and of easy access. make it simple so you do not have to spend ages seeking for information.

4) Making it simply simple - bank accounts and insurances etc, consolidate and make them easy to handle. Make sure you are not paying something which you do not need or are no longer using.
