Too Confusing
It is mostly a repeat of her other book " Clear Your Clutter with Feng Shui." Frankly speaking I liked her other book "Clear your Clutter..." a lot better but it must be combined with some type of Feng Shui placement art such as Lillian Too's books. So don't buy this one. Get her other book with Lillian Too. Warning do not attempt to practice Feng Shui without reading the book I recommend because she shows the hidden area of Feng Shui. The author talks too much about Bali in this book and it is a very bad contrast with the Western world. All she points out that it is a bad to have a two story building. Well, no one is going to change that in the west. Anyway, follow my recommendation and you will be a very happy. By the way I do not intend to undervalue the author. Indeed she has excellent common sense advices. Karen Kingston has defenitely changed the course of my life with her sounding advice. My recommendation to the author is to integrate the clearing and electromagnetic stress protection section into "Clear Your Clutter..." book and the world we greatly benefit from her writings.

junk out/light in
This book is about the energy contained within ourselves and in our environment, and helps us to manage and direct the energy in our living space. I've been implementing some of the principles of feng shui for 2 years and think it's helped add to the peace that's currently in my life. This is one of my sources of information and I love the emphasis on removing the clutter from one's life. Karen Kingston says "Clearing clutter actually releases huge amounts of energy in the body". I believe it. It works for me. This isn't a book that will show you how to decorate your house, but it will get you in the right mindset, get rid of all your accumulated junk, and set you on the path to attaining serene surroundings.

a simple and exquisite taste of Feng-Shui
About what did I get from the book, I could tell you: I cleared my ideas as
what feng shui was about. The book is a work that explain the positioning of
the furniture, windows, mirrors,buildings,cities, etc...,regarding the
energy of the object and the energy of the place.I like this book because
the author explains in simple ways some ideas or misconceptions that I have
about the energy that surrounds us. She has valuable credentials and much
experience in this matter. ...BR>About the energy clearing, she explains that energy clutters like dust,
although you don`t see it( there is not such thing as bad or good energy).
She explains the techniques to clear that energy from houses, objects etc...
and also how to shield and maintain places clear. She begans taking about
clutter in your closets and different places in your house.When I began
reading the book I became so conscious about all the things I have collected
and really don`t used. So I clean my closets and began making space for
other things. As you clean outside, your mind is relieved of burden. The
process was very interesting.
What I learn in the book I continue practicing today, there is no way
back.She explains the use of water, sound, fire and flowers in the different techniques. The author doesn`t mess with a lot of philosophical explanations, she just get to the point.I recomend this book to everyone who want a taste of Feng-Shui.
