What this episode covers

This episode is the first in our Feng Shui 101 series. We wanted to get back to some of the basics of this practice, because there is a lot of power in simplicity, and because it’s always helpful to approach things with a beginner’s mind. Also, our relationships to feng shui are always evolving, so we wanted to share our current perspectives. In this episode: - The origin of the term “feng shui” - Our definitions of feng shui - The connection between feng shui and nature - Balancing tools and study with wisdom and intuition - Paradoxes within feng shui - Honoring the simplicity as well as the depth of feng shui - Fear-based vs. compassion-based approaches to feng shui - Our desire to have absolutes and clear answers - The feng shui bagua map - Different schools of feng shui - Why it’s important go deep with one school instead of jumping around
