5.0 out of 5 stars BHS Feng Shui Really Worked for me!, August 11, 2002

By 

Clara Galvano (New York, NY) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Feng Shui and Health: The Anatomy of a Home: Using Feng Shui to Disarm Illness, Accelerate Recovery, and Create Optimal Health (Paperback)

in 1999 I read Nancy SantoPietro's first book, and was so interested that I called her for a consultation. I was very unhappy with job, my home, my health - Nancy took the time to explain why Black Hat Sect Feng Shui works and how it worked and gave me a list of things to do. Well since that time, I have a new job, my apt. is always neat - no stagnant energy - and lo and behold, my bouts with bronchitis have ceased. When this new book came out, I was eager to buy it and read it, because it makes so much sense. It is honest, readable, and you can tell that she wrote the book wanting to help people, not just because Feng Shui is "hot" right now. She is one practitioner that really cares about her clients. I highly recommend her as a Feng Shui practitioner and both her books are very, very easy to read and her advice is also easy to follow. My life has improved tremendously since SantoPietro's Feng Shui expertise touched my life and I hope others will be encouraged to read her books so they too can be helped!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent--Best Book Yet!, August 7, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Feng Shui and Health: The Anatomy of a Home: Using Feng Shui to Disarm Illness, Accelerate Recovery, and Create Optimal Health (Paperback)

Feng Shui and Health: Anatomy of A Home is the best book I have read on the issue of Feng Shui and health. Like Nancy SantoPietro's other book, Harmony By Design, it presents concepts in an easy-to-absorb, step-by-step approach. It's almost as if she is right there with you, walking you through exactly what you need to do to assess the health of your home and improve your health using Feng Shui concepts.

I love her perspective that specific areas of the home correspond to specific areas within the body-from a biological perspective as well as by looking at the chakras or energy system in the body. As a trained Feng Shui consultant, I have never heard this perspective from anyone else-it really takes Feng Shui one step further and is a great way to combine Feng Shui with other alternative modalities of healing.

This is an excellent book for anyone with a real interest in the topic of Feng Shui, anyone who has already read basic books on the topic and is now ready to go one step further-and DEFINITELY anyone who is looking for new and alternative ways to treat specific health conditions. SantoPietro combines Feng Shui with information about the possible physical, emotional and spiritual underpinnings of illness in a way that really makes sense. This book helped me improve the energy and general "feel" within our home, expand the way in which I work with clients and look at physical healing from a whole new light.

5.0 out of 5 stars Feng Shui and Health: The Anatomy of a Home, March 8, 2002

By 

Deborah W. Kaminski (Pismo Beach, Ca United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Feng Shui and Health: The Anatomy of a Home: Using Feng Shui to Disarm Illness, Accelerate Recovery, and Create Optimal Health (Paperback)

As a Feng Shui practitioner and a holistic nurse, I find this book an excellent resource for helping my clients heal their homes and themselves. Nancy combines the bagua and the chakras with great knowledge and experience. I'm glad Nancy places more importance on healing than on traditional compass placement which tends to instill fear in clients.
