In this series of articles Simon tells us all about Feng Shui for Business Success

Intuitive Feng Shui

We can with very little training all become aware of our environments and out of this be able to create homes and work spaces that best serve us and best help us succeed in life.

We can do this out of our experience of being in different places, whilst being aware of how we feel there. Ultimately this creates an inner knowing or intuition that encourages us to create the ultimate home out of our own real life experiences rather than someone else's abstract ideas.

The aim is to turn yourself into an energy sensing being. We already do this to a greater or lesser extent but here the intention is to bring the ability to feel energy into the conscious mind so that you become a barometer for feeling what kind of energy is present wherever you are.

So for example you might sit in a hotel lobby and feel restless. Look around to see if there is a reason for this. Is it the sharp, protruding corners, the long mirror, the shiny floor, the row of doors, the movement of people?

Try different types of environment. Compare your thoughts and emotions when sitting in a huge museum, gallery, cathedral, mosque, temple or synagogue with the thoughts and feelings you experience in a small crowded café. Consider what kind of energy flow might lead to those internal feelings. Is the atmosphere fast flowing, slow, intense, thin, up, settled or volatile? Then look for what it is about the building, decoration and layout that you think could contribute to that energy flow and your current mood.

As you develop this new awareness you will be building up a database of experience with different atmospheres and the way these effect you. You will be developing a real life knowledge of what it is about a building that produces certain atmospheres. This is the essential ingredient for becoming intuitive with feng shui. With this internal library you will be able to intuitively know how to create the best environment for you to succeed in.

Once a week go to a different public building, café, restaurant, museum, gallery, library, hotel lobby, work place, friend's house or shopping mall. Find somewhere to rest and relax. After fifteen minutes write down your thoughts, emotional feelings and mood. Describe the atmosphere you feel in this place. Look around and make a note of any features you think contribute to this. Is it the colours, the plants, the lighting, the materials used for the floor, the shape of the room, the windows and natural light, the size of the space, the furniture, the art or the open spaces?

The secret is to keep connecting your mental and emotional state to the possible influence of the building you are in.

MODERN DAY MACROBIOTICS by SIMON BROWN
As you eat different foods you take in their energies and these in turn interact with your own internal energies. The resulting new energy may make you feel different emotionally; it may help you to think differently; or it may help lift your spirits. The longer you eat foods with similar energy the deeper and onger lasting this influence will be. Eating macrobiotic foods - primarily whole, living, unprocessed foods, all naturally low on the glycaemic index - can make improvements to health and state of mind. This book presents how to take advantage of this diet, with a range of eating programmes that target specific needs from a one day tone up, to a 4 month healing plan.

PRACTICAL WABI SABI by SIMON BROWN
AMAZON CUTOMER REVIEW: When I read Practical Wabi Sabi by Simon G. Brown out of a budding interest in the subject, I KNEW that I had found a major key to help deal with the constant buzz in our heads, eyes and and ears in this electronic, microwaves, satallite-connected world. Simon offers a way to handle the insanity of modern life in a way other than stuffing ourselves with high corn fructose foods, or other drugs of choice, including 'retail therapy', in a desperate attempt to handle the mounting stresses in our lives. I LOVE this book which truly is practical, enjoyable and even gives a sense of spirituality no matter what your religious background.

Simon's novel The Healer is also now available. This book is a great way to learn more about healing whilst reading an engaging, insightful and thought provoking story.

THE HEALER by SIMON BROWN
"The Healer" presents a life changing philosophy that incorporates Zen Buddhism within a romantic story. It is a new age novel that openly explores the disappointments, excesses and arrogance that can befall a guru as well as the heart warming, healing interactions and profound, positive thoughts that are found within new age movements. This is a thought-provoking story about a young man's transformation from a mundane life to that of a healer and ultimately his starting a new religion. Yet, at the pinnacle of his success, his life is shattered through arrogance and personal tragedy precipitating the painful rebuilding of his new life and new self.
