About the Author
Lillian Too has been practising feng shui for about 30 years and has shared the secrets of this ancient tradition with the world. Her 18 books have sold in excess of 3.5 million copies making bestseller lists around the globe. At the height of her banking career she was the Managing Director of one of Hong Kong’s largest banks.
Feng Shui is a direct link to Lillian’s Chinese roots and blends the traditions of geomancy, Chinese folklore, numerology and astrology together. Working with the natural energies of the world, the elements and the compass directions gives us a grasp of our connection with the universe. With Feng Shui, Lillian believes that you can work with auspicious times and places and use preventative feng shui ‘cures’ to counterbalance inauspicious times and places. Based on using compass directions and the energy of natural elements like mountains and rivers, there are lucky and unlucky places. Architects in the East, use feng shui to design auspicious buildings for good business. Hong Kong banks are famous for having their buildings created using feng shui principles to multiply their ‘chi’ beneficial energy, and negate ‘shah’ negative energy.
Until she was 21, Lillian Too had been brought up as a Catholic and educated by nuns at a convent in Penang. But she started learning kung fu and began to learn about ‘energy’. She was first introduced to feng shui when she was trying for a baby. She moved into a new house that she and her husband were having built according to feng shui principles. And after trying for a baby for 9 years, within just 4 months of moving into their new home, Lillian was pregnant. She was amazed by her first success with using feng shui and later applied feng shui techniques to her career, which brought her great success.
Lillian needed to share the gift of the ancient knowledge of feng shui with others and started writing books. Essentially feng shui is an ancient science, which Lillian has successfully translated into Western terms and now people around the world from families to hotel owners are using feng shui principles in their homes and businesses. She lives in Kuala Lumpar.

I turn it on - it entertains. In much the same way Lillian Too's Smart Feng Shui for the Home is entertaining, providing many hints, suggestions and easy to follow examples of how Feng Shui can be applied in your home. In doing so it does not, however, suffocate the reader with in-depth explanations of the techniques, but leaves the reader with an interesting insight. A great book to introduce almost everyone to Feng Shui. The only reason I dropped the fifth star is because it lacks the colour images that can sometimes help illustrate the author's ideas.

You do not have to be a big roller to implement these tips and a marked improvement and visible difference can be noticed in a very short period of time, just by reorganisation of your living space. I Thoroughly recommend this book. Comment Comment | Permalink | Was this review helpful to you?

(Seville, Spain) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)    Having read quite a few books on the subject and the subsequent reviews on this book by other Amazon readers, I was really looking forward to getting my teeth into this book. However, I was very disappointed. Basically, if you have never used a compass before, you won't get past first base!! Lillian Too talks alot in the first 20 pages of how crucial it is to get accurate compass readings of your home/room orientations etc, and how it can have a detrimental affect not getting the correct readings. However, nowhere does she actually explain concisely how you read the compass for the purposes of Feng Shui, and how you interpret your readings. Her instructions with regards to this point are very scanty and jumbled in terms of how they are written about in the book and she left me totally confused. I have been interested in FS for about 5 years and regard myself as quite familiar with the principles, but her instructions (for obtaining the various directions within the home) totally fathomed me. When you do finally mangage to work out the various directions (or at least to the point where you "think" it must be correct), the rest of the book is very interesting, and the cures easy to implement. However, you best hope you get the directions sussed otherwise it makes the rest of the book totally worthless. Comment Comment | Permalink | Was this review helpful to you?
