Summary: Excellent overview of Feng Shui
Review: A good friend recently gave me a lovely gift, HOME DESIGN
WITH FENG SHUI A-Z by Terah Kathryn Collins . . . it hit me at
just the right moment because I've recently been giving a lot of thought about how to simplify not only my life, but also my home environment.Feng Shui (pronounced FUNG SHWAY), meaning "Wind and
Water," has been practiced for over 3,000 years in China. Yet it
can still be applied today to deal with the same essential
issues that were in vogue then: pursuit of health, prosperity
and happiness. This excellent book succinctly shows how any room can
be designed to help get the life you want . . . there were many
memorable passages; among them:
Spray a cleansing mist along the baseboards and into all the corners to revitalize a space. Cleansing mists contain citrus oil and can be purchased where health food and aromatherapy products are sold. Or make your own be adding a couple of drops of orange or lemon essential oils to an atomizer filled with water. One of the quickest ways to calm a bedroom down (along with its
occupants) is to remove or over the mirrors. . . . You can treat large mirrors, with beautiful curtains or shades that can be opened by day and closed by night. Other mirrors can be moved to a more active room or draped with fabric at night. This is especially important if the bedroom's occupants are not sleeping well there. Do you believe in yourself? Do you hold the vision of being a great success? Have you clearly defined your purpose in life? Meditate on how to align your purpose in life with your professional goals. Post affirmations that keep you inspired, such as "EVERYTHING I TOUCH IS A SUCCESS," and "EVERY DAY MY WORK ATTRACTS MAGNIFICENT PEOPLE AND OPPORTUNITIES INTO MY LIFE."

Summary: Colorful
Review: Before purchasing this book, I looked through many feng shui books. Being a novice, I didn't know what to look for in a book. But I did notice many books looked like college text books-BORING! This book is an attractive, easy-to-read book. No long passages to bore me. It gets right to the point. I'm looking forward to the book sequel, if there isn't one out yet.

Summary: Simplicity at it's best...
Review: Have a lot going on in your life? Feel like your pushed for time? Does the thought of opening up a book chock full of unfamiliar territory make you shiver - or conversely, do you get frustrated wanting the author to 'cut to the chase' already? If your mind is already full of clutter and you just want the simple basics about feng shui - this is the book you want. It's pleasant, warm, quick and informative without bogging you down. A very simple, pleasant way to learn the basics of feng shui. It's the "Baby Bear" book of feng shui; Mama bear's book was too hot. Papa bear's book was too cold. But Baby bear's book was juuuuust right!

Summary: Best Guide for the Beginner
Review: I am a Feng Shui Pracitioner and found this book for a gift for a friend interested in the knowing more about the art of placement. This is very understandable and she had no difficulty apply the concepts. This book was written in "layman's" terms, without talking above the readers head. I would HIGHLY RECCOMMEND this book for someone just wanting to know what it's all about without becoming the owner of hundreds of books and then possibly still not understanding the concept. Also, I would recommend that those interested in it would follow one author which would mean following one school of thought at the same time. Different authors with different FS backgrounds can be highly confusing and possibly cause you more harm than good when utilizing FS cures. Also only incorporate a few "cures" at a time - remember the say "too much of a good thing"? Well that applies in FS as well. You can become seriously ill by incorporating too much too soon. Good luck to all.

Review: This book is totally, completely, and entirely worthless. Anyone who knows enough about Feng Shui to want a book about it already knows more than is presented within. Don't waste your money.
