Takeaways

Feng Shui is the study of how energy moves through spaces. It is not superstition or about charms; it's about creating harmony. The five elements of Feng Shui are wood, fire, earth, metal, and water. Personalizing your space is essential for aligning with your intentions.

A cluttered home can lead to a cluttered mind. Understanding your Kua number helps in Feng Shui practices. Stagnant air and clutter can hold negative energy in a home.

The Enchiridion combines multiple systems for a holistic understanding of oneself.

Integration sessions help in understanding and applying the Enchiridion. Future developments include a parenting manual to help connect with children.

Sound Bites: "It's not about charms or special decor." "Your bed stabilizes your energy." "Every reading is a piece of the story."
