What is Feng Shui?
Feng shui uses five elements to create home harmony.
“Eau, Bois, Feu, Terre, Métal : derrière ces cinq éléments se cache l'un des principes essentiels du feng shui.”
Laurène Kahn's Masterclass
Laurène Kahn taught feng shui at Cathay Pacific's 80th anniversary event.
“Laurène Kahn pour découvrir cette tradition chinoise toujours bien vivante à Hong Kong.”
The Five Elements
Wood symbolizes growth, fire brings energy, earth offers stability, metal creates space, water represents flow.
“Le Bois évoque la croissance, l'élan, le renouveau.”
Why Balance Matters
The elements interact to create balance, not just presence.
“Aucun n'est intrinsèquement "bon" ou "mauvais" : ils se nourrissent, se transforment et se régulent.”
Real-Life Application
Hong Kong buildings use feng shui features like dragon gates for energy flow.
“Certains immeubles comportent par exemple des ouvertures, surnommées "portes du dragon".”
What Happens Next
You ask how your space makes you feel instead of whether it looks beautiful.
“On ne se dit plus seulement : "Est-ce beau ?" mais : "Comment est-ce que je me sens dans cet espace ?"”
The essence
Feng shui's five elements, wood, fire, earth, metal, water, create balance in living spaces to improve mental health.
