Tucson Feng Shui Tucson has long been known as a dynamic and progressive community that embraces and celebrates cultural diversity and wonderful gifts that the rich variety of cultures bring to our Arizona home. One needs to simply look around to find beautiful and exciting offerings from Mexico, native culture, and the whole spectrum of ethnic, spiritual, and regional contributions made both by those born here and those who have come to Tucson to make it their home. Feng shui is one such exciting and beneficial contribution to the people of Tucson. Feng Shui is the art and science of arranging your personal environment in order to maximize safety, comfort and productivity is gaining tremendous popularity in the West, and more and more people in Tucson are discovering how feng shui can powerfully and positively impact t heir lives.
Although Tucson is the ideal place to incorporate the benefits of feng shui into the home and work environment, feng shui actually originated in China over five thousand years ago. At that time, people sought feng shui masters for guidance as to the best locations to built family shrines. The word feng shui is actually a Chinese term that translated means 'wind and water.' This is because their counsel included not placing the shrine too high on a mountain top for risk of exposing the shrine to too much wind damage, and it included direction to not place the shrine too low in a valley for fear of water damage from flooding. As people were increasingly satisfied with the consultations their received regarding the placement of family shrines, they began to seek consultation regarding the most auspicious areas to locate their homes.
Additionally, feng shui principles began to be applied not only to the ideal location and position of the home itself, but to the interior of the home as well. After thousands of years of careful observation, feng shui practitioners developed the insight and keen ability to arrange interior home and work environment in such a way that maximized feelings of safety, comfort, and productivity. By comprehensively analyzing all aspects of the structure, including construction materials, angles of construction, arrangement of furniture, position on the property, location of rooms, date of construction and dates of birth of occupants, landscape features and surrounding neighbors and structures, feng shui can transform a home or work environment to energize and enhance all areas of the client's life. As Those Feng Shui Guys, Eric Cuestas-Thompson and Michael Bamba bring their combined years of formal training and experience in both Form School and Compass School to enhance and energize all areas of their clients' personal and professional lives.
Here in Tucson, more and more people are discovering the wonderful benefits that feng shui can bring to their lives. Those Feng Shui Guys provide formal and comprehensive feng shui consultations for Tucsonans home and work environments that have immediate and dramatic positive impact on how they live and work . Feng Shui principles are also powerfully applied in Those Feng Shui Guys' real estate staging with Tucson realtors and home sellers to make property move on Tucson's competitive real estate market. Feng shui also is very effective when applied to Tucson's apartment living community that has its own particular challenges in terms of living with limited space and neighbors in close proximity. Additionally, Those Feng Shui Guys work with Arizona landscapes and are adept at applying feng shui principles to maximizing the beauty and functionality of Tucson's Arizona desert landscapes. Tucson is a beautiful and vibrant community thriving in the Arizona desert. The dynamic fusion of mission and native color and style with the best of modern design and architecture make Tucson an ideal community for both Tucson natives as well as those who have moved to Arizona to escape the snow, rain and cold.
Another wonderful aspect of the Tucson community is its commitment to incorporate the forms and colors of the Arizona desert into home and work environments.
From a feng shui perspective, this provides both exciting opportunities as well as dynamic challenges. One amazing aspect of feng shui is that no matter the particular architectural challenges, even in Tucson's varied construction diversity, any problematic area, feature or structure can be addressed and enhanced via the recommendations of Eric Cuestas-Thompson and Michael Bamba, Those Feng Shui Guys.
In feng shui, elemental balance is an important aspect of creating a safe, comfortable, and productive home and work environment. Each of the five elements- earth, water, fire, metal, and wood- hold and promote a specific emotional state. Take the earth element, for example. The earth element is represented by the colors brown, beige, yellow, and nonmetallic gold. It is also represented by square and rectangular shapes. Earth is also represented by things made out of earth, such as clay, terra cotta, stucco, and by dirt itself. The earth element holds the energy of physical stability. Not enough of the earth element in a home or work environment results in the occupants of a building feeling unstable and insecure. People in these environments react to this by responding in ways consistent to their feeling unstable and insecure. Too much of the earth element has the opposite effect, with people feeling stuck, rigid, and lacking spontaneity.
Right away, one can see that many buildings in Tucson, with their brown and beige stucco exteriors, large rectangular drown or beige garage doors, and front yards covered in brown or beige gravel, have too much, or what we would say, extreme earth element. Additionally, very often people in Tucson may use terra cotta pots in decorating their front yards which, although they may be beautiful and wonderfully crafted in and of themselves, add even more to the extreme earth element.
When Michael Bamba of Those Feng Shui Guys meets with a Tucson family to do the initial assessment, this so often is the first thing he notices.
In his interview regarding what the family likes and does not like about their home, as well as how they feel coming home at the end of the day, they often report feeling stuck in either their personal or professional lives, and that despite all the positive things they may be able to identify about their home, they feel lackluster and perhaps joyless about their home they once loved.
When Michael Bamba and Eric Cuestas-Thompson of Those Feng Shui Guys then get together to discuss the particular challenges and issues both with the bulding, landscape and surrounding areas themselves and what is going on with the family, it becomes clear how the extreme earth element is negatively impacting them in the precise ways that the extreme earth element adversely impacts people. The exciting thing about addressing extreme or insufficient representations of the elements is that in utilizing the producing, diminishing, and reducing cycles of nature, these extreme elemental issues are readily addressed and improved. Time and time again in working with either a Tucson individual, couple, or family in their home, or a Tucson business professional, addressing the extreme earth element as it may exist in a particular consultation results in direct and observable improvements that are felt as well as seen. The result is that whether it is a home or work structure, the environment now feels nourishing, dynamic, and spontaneous.
