Feng Shui is an ancient Chinese practice -- a whole way of thinking and setting up a home or an office or any space where people go. It's designed to help achieve peace and order, using colors and furniture placement and natural things such as sunlight, wind and water to make one's home attractive and inviting. Outside, flowers make everything fresh-looking and create natural "curb appeal." Inside, simplicity and neatness are the first order. Clutter is a distraction and drains energy called "Chi." Decorate with peaceful natural colors and capture the sounds of nature with wind chimes, fountains and waterfalls wherever possible. Finally, Feng Shui calls for plenty of light; both natural and well-placed incandescent. There are lots of Feng Shui books at libraries and bookstores. And that's the On The House tip for today.
