Create the Life You Want with Feng Shui: An Introduction to Feng Shui
A ONE-DAY INTENSIVE
Saturday, May 8, 10-5:30pm
Taught by Rosalie Prinzivalli & Judith Wendell
One-day intensive training offers an introduction to Feng Shui, the long accepted ancient
Chinese art of positioning objects to balance chi (energy) flow.
The premise behind Feng Shui is that our quality of life is affected by the way we select, arrange
and decorate our homes and offices. And by altering these configurations, individuals report
experiencing more success at work, improved relationships, greater focus and clarity, better
health, and more!
During our one-day Intro, you will deepen your understanding and application of Feng Shui as you
· discover, and begin to apply, Feng Shui's extraordinary analytical tools;
· learn techniques to manifest your intentions;
· examine sample floor plans to illustrate challenging design areas;
· apply simple yet powerful space clearing methods to release unwanted energies; and
· explore techniques to help you shift into harmonious thinking for successful living.
In this class, we will learn how to perform specific techniques, rituals, blessings and chants from a variety of traditions to cleanse, consecrate and empower our environments so that they can better support us in fulfilling our intentions.
Note: One-Day Intensives can be taken as standalone introduction to Feng Shui principles, or to fulfill your pre-requisites for entering the BTB Feng Shui Masters Training Program. 10WAF06SB.
