Solve Those Nagging Problems in your Life

This isn't a book to read cover-to-cover, instead you browse through finding the problems that match your situation. Reading those gives you very specific solutions based on feng shui principles. The topics divide under Health, Wealth, Relationships, Family, and Career. The problems are very applicable to average peoples' lives. "How can I adopt a more positive attitude?" "How can I put passion back into our relationship?" "How can I change the fragmented, do-your-own-thing family life we have?" "How can I correct my chronic lateness and disorganization at work?" The solutions fill one page each and describe placement, color, and other feng shui techniques to change the situation. Over 100 questions are answered in the book. Most people will find a good number that apply to different situations in their lives. A number of double-page spreads explain basic feng shui tools (mirrors, plants, sounds, patterns/shapes, colors, building materials, dimensions) or principles (eight directions, nine ki astrology, five elements, yin/yang, chi energy). The use of color and layout enhance the appeal of the book.

Have a problem? Let's fix it...

I've very much enjoyed Simon Brown's other books on feng shui but was still surprised how much value I got out of this one. The bulk of the book is spent giving solutions to very specific and common life dilemmas interspersed with short pieces on the basic principles of feng shui. I found it easy to identify and remedy what in my home was going in a direction I didn't want to go. I previously had been strengthening compass directions that needed compensating for, instead. I also learned alot about the balance of yin and yang and how fundamental this balance is to moods, life tendencies and choosing which solution to implement. An easy to read book with lots of nice visuals.
