You'll Need Patience and Persistence To Finish This Program
This author's approach to Feng Shui for prosperity cannot be described as "easy", but it is certainly thorough.

Each chapter covers different areas of your living space, and how you can transform them (for wealth) through the principals of feng shui.

In addition, each chapter includes different activities and meditations which are used along with the physical principals.

Finally, there is a summary at the end of each chapter, done checklist-style, to assist the reader in completing all the chapter's actions.

Though the book is well-written, the problem I had with it was this: the author's use of lots of (authentic) feng shui terms and language. This does NOT make for easy reading for anyone who is a beginner to the uses of Feng Shui.

Now, if you don't mind reading chapter after chapter filled with phrases like "Make one step every day toward the fulfillment of your Chen goal from your Dream Bagua", then you'll probably enjoy the book and get a lot out of it.

As for me, the struggle to keep on wading through the new-to-me language of Feng Shui convinced me that finishing the book would be worthwhile, but starting the program would not be.

I think a more mainstream use of language would have turned this book into a five-star read.

However, for the reasons given above, I can only rate the book three stars. I don't believe the average reader will even finish reading the book unless their interest in Feng Shui is VERY strong.

WHAT A GIFT!
This book has been a tremendous gift in my life as I have come to a greater self-awareness regarding my relationship with money, my environment and myself.

The practical exercises have been very helpful to me, and I love to tell the story of one particular experience in which I reflected on being more welcoming towards money. I placed a vase of flowers at the entrance of my home, and the next day I received an unexpected phone call with a $2,000 scholarship offer! Remarkable and true.

With its insight and humor, I have found it to be an excellent and well-appreciated gift. I highly recommend it!

Ancient Principles guide modern today
This is a wonderful look at how ancient principles can help us today. If you liked this book, you will really like The Intersection of Joy and MOney by Mackey McNeill. Mackey understands the ancient teachings of feng shui and the enneagram and I found her book to be great.
