"So, the question is often posed, do I approach the bagua from an overall perspective of my entire home? Or should I look at the individual corners that are happening in a room? Well, that's a really good question and there is no hard and fast answer to it. It really depends on what's going on in your life and what is going on in that room in particular. I have a different answer for each consultation that I do. Sometimes, it can be overkill to do the overall corner and every, individual wealth corner. Sometimes, I would choose to do just the individual corners, because the wealth corner really needs a lot of work or, depending on the shape of the house, we could just do the overall corner and that might be enough. You don't want to do too much because you then can overthrow the energy and cause some more chaos. So, I wanted to show you what the individual corners are actually here in this home office, that is overall in the Fame area. So, we're going to place the bagua so that the area right over here to my right is the doorway into this office, although there is no actual door, it's just a doorway. So, according to that, the wealth corner is over here in this corner, where there's actually a wind chime hanging. Right behind me, is the family area and that would be where the doors are--that used to be the garage door. And the corner that I'm sitting in is actually Knowledge and Spirituality, and then directly opposite me would be Children and Creativity, and then kitty corner over here, is the Relationship corner. And then over in this corner, we've got Helpful People, Career obviously here where the door is, and then this wall is actually Fame, so this wall actually is what we call a "double Fame" corner, because it's the Fame area of the whole house and it's also the Fame area of this room. So, usually, that's pretty lucky because all you have to do is adjust one area and you're getting the overall adjustment and the individual adjustment. So, let's look at each of these corners and see what's going on there and what we might need to improve to get Stuart's career stimulated and getting better flow."
