University Open Air: Five Elements
The five elements of Feng Shui are wood, fire,earth, metal, water; these elements are interrelated life phases that work together to create a complete system. Each element promotes a different energy, and you can use them to shift the energy in your space, which can affect your relationship with yourself, others, and nature. We will learn some basics so you can try balancing the elements in a room that doesn't feel right to make it more comfortable. You can also create a customized space that's beneficial for your personality and goals by incorporating the elements into your home, yard, or office design.
