Feng Shui Chic: Stylish Designs for Harmonious Living

I have owned Feng Shui Chic: Stylish Designs for Harmonious Living for years and have given it as a gift more times than I can count. It is by far one of the best, most practical, useful, understandable resources on the market. The pictures, illustrations, and text help a beginner or experienced decorator who is intergrating feng shui into design or home improvement projects. I bought a lot of other books before I found this one and none have ever compared. Buy it! Also a great gift. Every person to whom I have given this book has raved about it, too!

Feng Shui is about room decor that makes you feel good and the more detailed the book the better you'll arrange each room in you home. This book could use more detail and I do recommend that if you like it you get a Lo Pan and this other book to go with your Feng Shui collection, The Western Guide to Feng Shui: Room by Room (Feng Shui) (Paperback) by Terah Kathryn Collins.

Feng Shui Chic is a great resource for people who want to apply ancient principles of feng shui to modern-day living and individual tastes. This is one of the most clear and organized feng shui books I have read, and I have read many. The room-by-room guide is especially helpful, and the photos are fantastic!

Using the principles of Feng Shui with respect to interior design Feng Shui Chic: Stylish Designs For Harmonious Living: seeks to elicit specific physical or emotional responses based on home decorating choices. Employing Feng Shui with respect to designing the rooms of a home can open up new body/mind/spirit experiences; sharpen focus on detailed tasks; strengthen the immune system; encourage confidence; help release unwanted clutter; and much more. If you are considering an interior design project for your home or apartment, begin with a careful reading of Sharon Stasney's Feng Shui Chic.

Sharon Stasney gives western culture a book that fits our aesthetics and our cultural needs. This book takes the mystery and confusion out of Feng Shui and allows readers to really get down to making some changes in their life. Many of the feng shui books I have read have left me in a perpetual thinking loop-meaning no action taken, no change. Feng Shui Chic is well organized in an understandable, practical format. The exercises are very helpful and highlight the versatility of feng shui as a healing tool. The room by room guide is essential for being able to diagnose one's own home.As a student and practioner of Feng Shui, I know how powerful a tool it can be, but very few books offer ideas that are as aesthetically pleasing, versatile and practical as Sharon's. The other very impressive part of the book is that it truly gives the reader gentle and practical ways to look closer at the connection of the physical space to the whole person and see how these two things are connected and the beautiful energy dance that happens between them.The color photographs are beautifully done and essential to digesting the information being presented in each of the sections. I will be giving and recommending this book to everyone I know.Maura Powers Salt Lake City, UT
