Feng Shui and Acupuncture – Books & Brews Lite talks Feng Shui with Moni Castaneda

From Books and Brews:

“Moni is a Feng Shui Consultant, Speaker and Author. Even with a degree in architecture, she was confused by feng shui at first. That’s why she made it her mission to take the confusion out of Feng Shui. She created a step-by-step system that combines Feng Shui, Modern Architecture and Alternative Healing, to give people the power to transform their homes while they transform their lives to be happier, healthier, and wealthier. We talked about Moni’s journey from earning her architectural degree in Ecuador to working with Feng Shui in America, feng shui’s impact on things like sleep, mirrors, and the importance of beauty in our homes, gardens, and lives. If you could make your house more beautiful, what would you do? Artwork, sculpture, paint, different furniture, flowers, gardens?”

Feng Shui Your Landscape to Increase Your Wealth!

Conversations about trees are conversations about wealth. There’s no way around it.

Wealth in Feng Shui means material wealth, defined as how much stuff you got + skills + connections. But it doesn’t include concepts such as “my health is my wealth” or “my connection with god is my wealth.” We have other life areas to take care of those important issues.

Feng Shui, the ancient yet modern energy healing modality, can change your money flow, your relationships and family, your health, and your wealth!

By special placement of plants, water features, and living spaces in your landscape , you can shift your life in wonderful ways and boost your inner healing journey.

She also reveals the profound changes that applying Feng Shui can bring to both the inside and outside of a home, creating balance, harmony, and positive energy. Additionally, Moni gives us insight into her book, where listeners can purchase it, and how they can book a consultation or follow her work.
