Feng Shui is a Chinese artform with over 3000 years of history. It teaches how to harmonise the spaces in which one lives, to create a dialogue with ones surroundings, to draw energy and wellbeing from the spaces around one. For this reason, Feng Shui can be defined as ‘surroundings-therapy’ – a therapy to cure the spirit and body by learning to derive the natural positive energies from the spaces where one lives and/or works.
