Product Description
The ancient Chinese art of feng shui is becoming increasingly popular in the West. That's because many of feng shui's principles are just common sense. One of the easiest, most popular, and most important feng shui cures is clutter control and organization. Several best-sellers have already been written on this topic, but none with the easy time promise this book offers. Patterned after 10-Minute Feng Shui, this book will offer hundreds of ways to use the ancient Chinese art of placement to clear the detritus of a busy life and create a calm, harmonious environment.

5.0 out of 5 stars Clutter Control Made Easy, January 27, 2005

By	Rebecca Henderson (Johnson City, TN USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Reading this book was my introduction to the Feng Shui philosophy. Most of the book has short paragraphs that will help you reduce clutter immediately. This is a great book for just reading a paragraph or two at a time. Read this book; you'll benefit from it!

By	D. Vitale "vitaleshop" (Shrewsbury, MA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Easy to read and makes a nice gift. The Feng Shui way of getting rid of clutter is different from the usual organization books! If you are overwhelmed with clutter, this book is a great motivator. I am taking a huge load to Goodwill tomorrow! Enjoy!

4.0 out of 5 stars It is what it is, where it is, January 23, 2006

By	TundraVision (o/~ from the Land of Sky Blue Waters o/~) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)

I confess: I am a person of clutter. I am not a feng shui* devotee, indeed, this book was my introduction. For me, Jeff Campbell's 'Clutter Control : Putting Your Home on a Diet' is still The Best, but this book has its moments, and is a good refresher for New Year's resolutioners. Sorry, Shui sisters. I haven't got time, money or inclination to build a Bagua octagon of Chez Tundra - so my "missing gua" must remain AWOL. The kitchen is where the kitchen is - not to be confused with my Home Office or the bath. Still, the remaining chapters of Skye's Shui offer inspiration and reinforcement for ever-ongoing vigilance against the accumulation of clutter. /TundraVision, Amazon Reviewer

* For those as new to the Chinese art of Feng Shui as I, (I live up here in the Tundra,) the author explains: "literally translated, feng shui means wind and water. Wind and water, as we know, can be harnessed to produce energy. Feng shui also allows us to control and direct natural forces and utilize their energy. The principle force fend shui considers the ch'i (pronounced chee), the life-giving energy of the universe that flows through everything - our homes, the Earth, our bodies." So, the convergence for this reviewer is inspiration to shovel more stuff out the door!
