Feng Shui FAQs
Q – What exactly is Feng Shui?
A – Feng Shui means
wind and water. These are the two natural elements that
flow and move everywhere on Earth. They are necessary for our
survival. Wind and water carry Chi, our energy or life force. Using
Feng Shui principles allows us to use this flow of Chi to enrich our
personal life and environment.
Q – Is Feng Shui a
religion or superstition?
A – No, it is a
philosophy, art and science of creating balance between humans and
their environment. It allows you to harmonize your surroundings and
in turn, it supports and empowers your personal life.
Q - Why is it
important to clear up clutter?
A – Clutter in
Feng Shui represents stagnant or negative energy. It blocks the
smooth flow of Chi throughout your home. A cluttered home, office or
desk will energetically weigh you down, cause you to have difficulty
making decisions, stop new opportunities from coming into your life,
and cause you to live in the past. Clear out that clutter!
Q - Why is my
home’s front door so important?
A – In Feng Shui the
front door of your home is the ‘mouth of Chi’. This is where our
opportunities in life, good luck, and fortunes enter. The area leading
up to the front of the home, including the door should be clean, well
maintained, unblocked and welcoming. Remember to open your front door
everyday and let in the possibilities!
Q – Do I need to purchase new furniture and
accessories at a great expense just to do Feng Shui?
A – Absolutely not! If needed, a
certified consultant will make recommendations to rearrange your
furniture to improve the energy flow in your home. Too many
accessories will cause clutter. If suggestions are made to use Feng
Shui enhancements, they can be subtly placed.
Q – How do I
arrange a Feng Shui consult?
A – Contact Phoenix
Feng Shui at
phoenixfengshui@comcast.net for an onsite residential
consultation. Consults can also be completed via the telephone for
busy or out of state clients. Details will be provided to you so you
can get started right away!
My book,
Live an Abundant Life with Feng Shui, can also answer many of
your questions!

Home Staging FAQs
Q – What is home staging for real estate?
A – The terms home
staging, home showcasing, or interior redesign have been used by
consultants to help sellers and agents get a home ready for an open
house. They all mean the same thing: rearrangement of existing or
rental furniture and accessories to create a home that is appealing to
the highest number of potential buyers.
Q - What are the benefits of home staging to
the seller?
A – Studies have shown that a
staged home sells faster, has a competitive edge, enhanced
marketability, a higher value and attracts serious buyers. A
staged home looks more organized, polished, and neutral enough to
allow buyers to picture themselves living there comfortably.
Q – What areas of the home are included in the
consultation?
A – The staging process begins
with the most important area – curb appeal. If a potential buyer does
not like what he sees from the street, he drives away. The seller
must capture their interest on the way to the front door. Once inside,
an eye-catching arrangement of artwork or accessories draws the buyer
in to see more of the home.
Q- Does Phoenix Home Staging work with agents
and realtors too?
A – Absolutely! A buyer will
decide in about 5 seconds upon entering a house if they will
buy or not. It is critical to bring us into a home that needs some
‘TLC’ before the open house. Our goal is to show off every
room to its best possible advantage. For agents: a staged home means
a shorter sale time, reduced marketing expense, and the agent
increases his reputation for excellence, and builds a loyal client
base. Even Realtor Magazine recommends home staging!
Q – What makes Phoenix Home Staging different
from other stagers?
A
– We teach the seller how to become real estate savvy by
allowing them to master easy design techniques to
enhance their home for a quicker sale. These techniques are based on
design principles of furniture placement, color, focal points, clutter
control, traffic flow and the use of accessories. We also charge a
reasonable flat rate, not a ‘per hour’ or ‘per room’ charge as most
other stagers. Our process is not intimidating or costly since
the seller will use their own rearranged furnishings. We do not
have to combine Feng Shui principles to the staging if the seller
does not want them. We welcome the opportunity to assist all
sellers and agents in the Southern New Jersey area. Please contact
Phoenixhomestaging@comcast.net for more information on Home
Staging.

Young Living FAQs
Q – Can you tell me about the Young Living
company and its founder?
A - Founded by D. Gary Young, ND in 1993, Young
Living Essential Oils is world renowned for exceptionally high-quality
essential oils, dietary supplements, and personal care products. Gary
began his quest for self-healing after surviving a near fatal accident
that left him paralyzed and confined to a wheelchair. Unwilling to
accept his fate, he searched for natural ways to heal his body. This
led to the discovery of essential oils, which inspired him to
formulate herbal food supplements and other products with essential
oils.
Q – What is an essential oil?
A – Young Living’s oils are liquids distilled in a
specific manner from shrubs, flowers, trees, roots, bushes and seeds.
They are highly concentrated and more potent than dried herbs or most
‘health food store’ oils. Young Living oils are pure, cannot go rancid
and have powerful antibacterial, antiviral and antifungal properties.
In the body, they stimulate the secretion of antibodies,
neurotransmitters, endorphins, hormones and enzymes. Essential oils
have a chemical structure similar to that found in human cells
and tissues. This makes them acceptable to our body.
Q – What are some health issues that can be helped with
essential oils?
A - Studies have shown that specific oils
help wound healing, slow cancer growth, stop headaches, reduce pain
and inflammation, help PMS, depression, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue
syndrome, insomnia, enhance circulation, build immune
function, lower stress, promote hair growth and other health issues.
Because of their complexity, essential oils do not
disturb the body’s natural balance.
Q - Can you explain why Young Living’s antioxidant drink is so
healthy?
A - NingXia Red contains Chinese Wolfberries and
other properties that enhance the immune system, fight free radicals,
reduces pain caused by inflammation, promotes good eye health,
rebuilds white blood cell counts, strengthens cells, increases energy
levels, slows age related memory loss, stabilizes blood sugar,
contains natural vitamins B, C, E, Essential Fatty Acids and Amino
Acids – no wonder its called a SUPER FOOD! To learn more about this
product, and to place an order, please visit

Q – How can I learn more about the oils and start my own
business from home?
