Over the years I have been asked many times what it is like to practice Feng Shui as a career. My program will focus on theory and application, but we can also delve into discussions regarding professional conduct and the business side of practicing Feng Shui. A practitioner can enjoy a lot of gratification in this field, when seeing how relatively easy and affordable changes to one’s environment can make a palpable, sustainable improvement in people’s lives. Feng Shui “urban myths” sometimes make this natural earth science seem like magic, but we are just as often dispensing advice that is inherently good design and common sense. This is a very unique occupation and I think it mostly chooses its practitioners, rather than the other way around.
Wouldn’t you also like to have a list of success stories where clients were able to achieve sudden increases in income, enter new and better relationships, resolve health issues, overcome fertility problems, have legal cases dismissed and a whole variety of obstacles disappear after following through with your recommendations?
Being a professional consultant is now a realistic path and the world has embraced Feng Shui as a legitimate discipline, on par with Chinese medicine and other Healing Arts. Although it is still not without controversy, there are enough people who are open-minded and inquisitive, that Feng Shui services are sought after, even by those who don’t normally delve into esoteric practices. If you are sensitive to physical environments and enjoy working with people, then Feng Shui as a profession may really be your calling. It never ceases to amaze me how Feng Shui often ends up solving the puzzle or problem which no other professional or system discovered or addressed.
