Episode 088: Our Feng Shui Lineage
In this episode, we’re taking a moment to honor our feng shui lineage. We believe that it’s incredibly important to honor our lineages, both our own personal cultural lineages and those of the practices we study and are drawn to. We’ve mentioned our teachers before, but inspired by the uprising against racial injustice that we’re witnessing right now, we are looking more deeply at how we are showing up in the world. While we always share our lineage with our Mindful Design students and everyone who attends our info sessions, we recognized that we can do more to honor our lineage publicly. - Why it’s important to honor our lineage - Cultural appropriation and feng shui - Why you shouldn’t be afraid to ask a feng shui practitioner about their teachers and lineage - The origin of feng shui and BTB feng shui - Our BTB feng shui teachers: Steven Post, Rosalie Prinzivalli, Barry Gordon, and Katherine Metz - Our root teacher, his Holiness Grandmaster Professor Lin Yun - The current lineage holder, Her Holiness Crystal Chu Rinpoche - Different schools of feng shui (for more on this and other feng shui basics, listen to this episode)
