Chinese Proverb says:
“If there is harmony in the house, there is order in the
nation.” “If there is order in the
nation, there will be peace in the world.”
According to an article in the New York Times, the McDonalds
Corporation joined the forces of
Feng Shui in 2008 in Los Angeles. Who would ever believe that! They did it by creating comfortable seating arrangements, good color design and great artwork. It is the same kind of energy you want to create in your office and home.

Feng Shui is all about creating peace and harmony within
your environment. Retail managers
constantly strive to keep us all in their businesses for as long as
possible. This is not always the goal of
the Hospitality Industry. Most of the
time, they want a quick turn over, which means uncomfortable seating and a
rushed atmosphere.
Disneyland made quite a few mistakes with its Hong Kong
location. After they consulted with a Feng Shui Master, they changed the
position of the door by 12 degrees. This
was to ensure that the prosperity would keep on flowing in the doors straight
through the entrance way of the park. Once it was realized that they had to
keep in mind the Asian culture and their love of Feng Shui, their business
improved.
One of their services in this location is to cater large
weddings. The event center was designed utilizing the number
8, which is believed to be prosperous! Their event room is 888 square meters,
for this reason. They do not use the
number 4 because it is considered bad luck.
So if you are looking for a room on the fourth floor, you really are out
of luck!
This ancient art will affect your mood and behavior and also
be a factor in successful personal and professional relationships. The goal is to get it right from the
beginning, which means during the construction or remodeling of a building or
home. There are many ways to “fix” an
area that doesn't have the correct design after it is built, but sometimes it
requires more money to make any necessary changes.
Ideally, you should have a Feng Shui expert look at the
property first, before you start construction. They will look at the geography
of the land that will impact everyone in the building or home. The ideal
location would have hills or mountains to the north and the reason is that the
hills are symbolic for being protectors of the property. The southern area for your front door is the
most auspicious.
The next time you are hungry for the burger and fries menu,
check out the restaurant and see why you like going there. Is it the colors, the energy of the servers
or is it the French fries?
