This review is from: 101 Ways Feng Shui Can Change Your Life (Paperback)

Many books explain feng shui and tell how to apply it to your home. This one approaches it differently. The reader chooses from topics such as: ways to reduce stress or overcome the emotional trauma of death and divorce or support parenting. Then the book provides feng shui tips for issues in that category.
In the parenting section, it tells how to deal with a child's fear of monsters and overactivity in children.
There are sections that might not apply to you, but everyone is sure to find some help for problems in their home layout, colors, etc. that feng shui can improve.
