Feng Shui Interior Design
Feng Shui (pronounced fung schway) is an ancient Chinese term dating back over 3000 years. It translates to mean wind (feng – pronounced fung) and water (shui – pronounced schway). The wind characterizes invisible energy while the water represents visible energy. As a philosophy, Feng Shui concerns itself with a balance of energy, Ch’i (pronounced chee). Ch’i is found in all living and inanimate objects. Ch’i is comprised of opposing forces known as Yin and Yang. Yin represents night, dark, hidden, soft, cool and feminine characteristics. Yang represents day, light, evident, hard, hot and masculine characteristics. In Feng Shui, the Yin and the Yang are in constant interplay. You do not have one without the other. Each balances the characteristics of the other. Representing the Yin and the Yang are the five elements that are the basic building blocks of everything on Earth: fire, earth, metal, water and wood. These elements when present and balanced establish an inviting, comfortable and supportive environment.
Underpinning the philosophy of Feng Shui are three basic tenets:
- Energy is embodied in everything, living and non-living.
- All living matter and inanimate objects are connected.
- Change is constant.
The ideal environment is one that balances the tension between Yin and Yang through the complementary use of the five elements. The result is a harmonious space that encompasses the movement of energy nurturing and supporting the soul.
As a philosophy and practice, Feng Shui offers a means with which to find balance in one’s environment that in turn cultivates one’s inner self. Feng Shui is not static, but evolves as you do.
Why is Feng Shui important?
Because circumstances and times change, people find there are aspects in their lives that could be improved. They may be frustrated in their career, challenged in their relationships, concerned about finances or uncomfortable in their home or office. Feng Shui relies upon centuries old practices to assess potential obstacles and to recommend changes or cures that maximize a positive flow of energy. Recognizing that all environments consist of objects, animate and inanimate, and each and all of these objects emit energy, it is the nature of the flow of energy that impacts the individual.
For instance, suppose that you are interested in having a serious relationship or are not fulfilled in your current relationship. Feng Shui offers an opportunity to examine how your external environment may be contributing to this situation and how you may go about modifying the external environment in order to influence change for the better.
How does Feng Shui work?
Through the application of Feng Shui principles a consultant analyzes the space one is concerned about. Through observation, conversation and the use of different tools, a Feng Shui consultant identifies the varying elements that make up a particular energy field and offers suggestions on how to modify the environment in a manner that is sensitive to your tastes and consistent with the principles of Feng Shui. The outcome is to create an appropriate balance in the energy for a particular space.
Do I really need external help?
An experienced Feng Shui consultant may help you look at things differently. Just as it is often helpful to have another person review something you have written in terms of clarity, punctuation and spelling, it is constructive to seek outside assistance in identifying what may be posing a challenge and to then have suggestions made for addressing that challenge.
Does Feng Shui apply to all spaces?
Yes. It applies to interior and exterior spaces. These spaces include rooms, offices, basements, garages, entrances, the yard, a building, a block and an entire community.
Does Feng Shui account for my individual tastes and preferences?
Yes. Applying Feng Shui to your surroundings takes into account your tastes and preferences.
Is Feng Shui expensive?
A Feng Shui consultant will ascertain what is doable given your circumstances. Regardless of your financial situation, Feng Shui offers an opportunity to begin to address critical environmental energy issues. Working as resources and time permit Feng Shui is a process that will help you balance the flow of energy that impacts your unique situation.
Are my consultations and situations private?
Yes. At ZenSpot your identity is kept private and no images or names are divulged to an external audience unless you have given express permission to do so.

About Reiki
Reiki (pronounced “ray-key”) is a Japanese healing technique that looks to channel the life-force energy in each of us to promote balance and peace.This healing technique aids in stress reduction, physical, emotional and spiritual healing, relaxation and promotes positive balance throughout one’s whole being.
What can I expect from a Reiki healing session?
Reiki (or life-force energy) is administered through the Reiki Master’s hands and is based on the principle that life- force energy flows through us and is what causes us to be alive. If one's life-force energy is low, then we are more likely to get sick or feel stress, and if it is high, we are more capable of being happy and healthy. The Reiki Master serves as a positive channel to balance the energy in the client’s being to promote relaxation and well-being and address any special needs whether physical, emotional or spiritual.
Where does the Reiki healing session take place?
Reiki healing sessions can take place at ZenSpot Eugene, OR or in a location specified by the client. If a healing session does take place at a client-preferred location other fees will apply.
How long is a Reiki healing session?
Clients have the choice of 30 minute healing sessions or 45 minute healing sessions.
How many sessions will I need?
The number of healing sessions is contingent upon what the clients needs are. After discussion with a ZenSpot Reiki Master, the client can decide what best suits his/her needs.
