SUMMARY:How Feng Shui Can Empower Your Life with Lisa Ystrom
DESCRIPTION:HOW FENG SHUI CAN EMPOWER YOUR LIFE \nFor most of us\, life has gotten busier and crazier than ever. We want to make sure that the places that we are spending the most time (our homes and offices) are set up to support us rather than deplete us. Feng Shui is all about creating supportive\, thriving spaces and helping us get into the flow (who wouldn’t want that?!). Learn how Feng Shui can empower you and your life\, a little bit about its history\, the how and why behind it\, and take away some easy ways to apply it. \nLisa Ystrom from Intentional Living Feng Shui is a Certified Feng Shui Consultant and Red Ribbon Professional Member of the International Feng Shui Guild (IFSG). She has two certifications\, having studied under Karen Rauch Carter (bestselling author of Move Your Stuff\, Change Your Life) and James & Helen Jay (two of the original founders of the International Feng Shui Guild and co-owners of Feng Shui Designs). Lisa is so passionate about Feng Shui (and a zealous lifelong learner) that she is on her third certification\, studying under Dana Claudat from The Tao of Dana. \nLisa loves to help people make their space the best that it can be and help people improve their lives in numerous ways by applying Feng Shui principles. She loves to help people understand the importance of their physical surroundings and create spaces that support them and set them up for success. Her motto is “Enhance Your Space\, Transform Your Life”. Her own mission is to make Feng Shui less mysterious\, and more user-friendly and fun. When your Feng Shui is flowing\, the possibilities are endless!
