Due to the developed (and sometimes overdeveloped) areas we are living in at this
time, it is more important than ever to implement principles of Feng Shui in our
environment so that we may have good health.

Not so long ago, the majority of people lived in the country close to nature, which
is good from a Feng Shui point of view. Most people are now city dwellers because
of the need to be near their work.

In this new world of modern technology, this, too, is changing. More and more
people are connecting and working with their computers through the Internet, giving
them the ability to work from a home in the countryside. This will almost certainly
produce healthier individuals. We have almost forgotten how important
exposure to nature is to our health and well-being. Feng Shui is a reminder to pay
attention to the revitalizing effect nature has on our inner being. Feng shui teaches
us that certain places have better energy than others. Living near nature is a sure
sign of having better health, and gives us energy, vitality and the zest for living.
Once feng shui principles are implemented, we feel healthy, alive and filled with
energy.

When we live in a city, it is necessary to activate our surroundings in order to
achieve a healthy body and mind. If you live in a place where you are always ill,
you may be located where the energy running through the veins of the earth is
detrimental or incompatible with your energy.

Another possibility with ill health or fortune, is living in a place where “poison
arrows” shoot at you while you sleep or work. Poison arrows are any sharp, pointed
objects, including sharp corners from other buildings pointing toward your
front door or bedroom. If you are sleeping or lying in the direct path of such energy
for long periods of time, this can cause ill health to the point where you will not
be able to recover.

These poison arrows can also cause you to lose your wealth. Having financial
problems can also contribute to ill health.
