Feng Shui is an ancient Chinese science based on the study of the flow of environmental energy (QI) and its effect on human life. “Feng” means “air,” and “Shui” means “water”, and thus, Feng Shui means “balance of air and water.” This science is based on installing the right flow of energy in spaces, homes, offices, and other aspects of life. If the energy flow is in the right direction, it can bring positive changes to every aspect of life. (Image: AI-Generated)
