Wood Wind & Water

the art of environmental alignment

My name is Nola Wood. Wood Wind & Water is my consulting business.  I have been studying and practicing environmental psychology since 1974.  I am certified in Essential Feng Shui™ through the Western School of Feng Shui™.  I also have studied with Nancilee Wydra, William Spear, and Denise Linn, incorporating the wisdom from their diverse philosophies into my unique approach to space design.  Curiosity keeps the study continuous and the ideas fresh.

Through the consultation and workshop process, I provide guidance in identifying the factors in your surroundings that bring down and that uplift your energy.  We all seek balance.  By collaborating, we can eliminate the mental, physical, and environmental blocks that keep you stuck in unsatisfactory cycles.

It is about taking cues from bamboo—staying rooted while being flexible and resilient; it is about taking cues from a mountain stream—gently moving around the obstacles, patiently wearing away the obstacles.  It is about knowing ourselves—our limits and our potential.  It is about balancing placidity and activity.

 

What I offer incorporates Feng Shui principles, but is not classical Feng Shui.  My specialty is more accurately a form of restorative space design, or what I call “the art of environmental alignment.”  I help people to live in harmony with their environment, create beautiful, revitalizing, uplifting, goal supportive, safe, comfortable, healthy and balanced surroundings. 

 

 

Martin Prechtel, a man that lived in a Mayan village in Guatemala for a couple of decades, wrote the book Secrets of the Talking Jaguar. Robert Bly wrote the forward and in it says that Mayan tradition does not teach that the Gods want people to be sinless or perfect, but that the Gods love beauty, eloquence, fine clothes, great music, fine poems, bravery, and gratitude. So the Mayan people's main and ancient job is to be beautiful and grateful. This is the honey that brings the Gods (like bears) into the village. 

 

We positively affect the energy in our homes when we make them living celebrations of our lives and our place in the world.
