Inspired to Declutter!, April 30, 2010
This review is from: 27 Things to Feng Shui Your Home (Good Things to Know) (Paperback)
Want to feel better about your home or living space? Read Tisha's book, and you will be motivated to clean out the closets, organize drawers, paint a room, or rearrange furniture. After only reading a couple of chapters, I was inspired to start cleaning out closets. Several chapters later, I was wondering why in the world I was saving items in my attic that I hadn't seen or needed in years. It's amazing how much energy I had after getting rid of some of my old 'baggage'. Tisha's easy-to-read suggestions and tips gives you the motivation you need to make your home a more enjoyable place. It's a quick, easy read. I've even picked up a few extra copies for gifts!

Feng Shui Made Simple, May 31, 2010
This review is from: 27 Things to Feng Shui Your Home (Good Things to Know) (Paperback)
I've always liked the idea of Feng Shui but never could grasp the concept until I read this book. It breaks Feng Shui down into simple steps that anyone can understand. I especially liked the part about decluttering - something that I didn't think I had a problem with until I went through my back closet. The gifts I've received but never used, old pictures that were no longer serving me, and the things that I didn't have the courage to throw away until now. With all the space I've cleared I'm ready for new things to enter my life. Thanks, Tisha for your clarity in leading me through this process!

The Easiest Way to Do Feng Shui, April 21, 2010
This review is from: 27 Things to Feng Shui Your Home (Good Things to Know) (Paperback)
I've read (or should I say "started" to read) several books on feng shui and found them too hard to understand. I wanted something practical that showed me exactly what to do. I don't care about Chinese history regarding feng shui and I don't want to read complicated maps and worry about superstition regarding where I put things. What I wanted was an easy read with an uncomplicated solution to remedy troublesome areas that I knew needed help. That's exactly what I got in 27 Things to Feng Shui Your Home.
I mean really easy things like changing the art on the walls, or tossing out old pictures, rearranging furniture, cleaning a closet, adding a mirror or crystal. Did you know that ringing a bell can clear a room of negative energy? Simple solutions like these will get you started and taking action to remove stagnant energy and get things flowing again.
This straightforward book not only helped me understand how the surrounding environment relates to the various aspects of life and what I could to do change my environment in order to improve my life, it gave me the much-needed incentive to take action. I even learned how to bring in the five elements and found the motivation needed to take on a large project. Beware! You may decide to clean out your entire basement without dreading the process. I cleaned and painted my laundry room and completely revamped my workspace two days after reading this book! What can I say? I was inspired.
Based on the Bagua map that helps you see the specific relationships between parts of your house, Tisha's interactive program teaches how to divide your living space into nine sections that reflects the Gua distribution. She doesn't leave you with a bunch of ideas and no way to implement them. After showing you what to do, she tells you how to do it in the chapter titled "A Plan to Implement the 27 Things."
I also like the size of this book. It fits in my purse and the print is large enough that I don't need bifocals to read it! Be sure to check out Tisha's feng shui app for iPhone in case you get inspired at work or while at a friend's house.
