MANILA, Philippines - Feng shui has become part of the Filipino art and science towards wellness. The Chinese have for centuries looked to feng shui to help improve one’s life through balance in the flow of positive chi (energy) and harness it favorably.
According to feng shui experts, health-wise, people born under the Year of the Tiger, Rabbit, Snake, and Horse are advised to take extra health precautions, as stress and sickness may hinder their progress this year. Charms such as the brass Wu Lou with eight immortals and the jade bracelet are said to counteract bad health. Charms and crystals appear to promote and improve physical, mental, and spiritual health.
While medical practitioners believe that there is nothing wrong with applying feng shui principles to enhance wellness, they firmly believe that it should be accompanied by expert medical advice. Healthway Medical, the country’s largest mall-based clinic, believes that everyone should give high importance to their health as it is an individual’s most important investment and biggest asset.
