Feng Shui is a Chinese traditional discipline which studies the way in which human beings co-exist in harmony with nature. Feng Shui is basically composed of two words Feng and Shui which literally mean wind and water respectively.
After establishing the harmony between wind and water along with other three elements in any premise whether it be residential complex or a business premise we can ensure the perennial circulation of Chi energy. As we know that the balance and equilibrium of all the elements ensure the continuous flow of positive Chi which brings about peace, happiness and prosperity.
