With the exception of Feng Shui, ‘House Healing’ is not a widely accepted practice. This book has been written by two of the world’s most eminent practitioners in what has become known as modern Geomancy. Working with subtleties that can be accessed through meditation, mindfulness and dowsing this book shows how the power of focused intent can be harnessed to improve the relationship between humans, buildings, nature and Mother Earth in simple, practical ways. The authors have spent decades helping people subtly change the way they function in their homes and here they share their experience, knowledge and philosophy to illustrate how, by changing the perceptions of our lives through truly holistic thinking, we can create a sustained positive relationship with everything around us.
