Mission
The
Art of Living's goal is to provide education to those who seek preventative ways of healing through nutrition and fitness along with the balance of a healthy living environment through Traditional Feng
Shui Design (FS). Founded by FS Designer and lecturer Keri-Anne Nichols, her primary objective is to educate you on the importance
of nutrition and it’s effects on the mind & body, natural methods in
disease prevention, how to read your health and ways to aide in healing
your environment through FS Design. Everything is connected and
energy travels in us and through us everyday. Knowing how to create a
balanced environment that supports health, happiness, success, and
prosperity is essential in everyone's life. We strive to help you
maintain balance in your environment and body and help you give you the
tools to make intelligent and ethical decisions that will effect your
future and those around you. An
extraordinary life comes from an unrelenting commitment to constant and
never-ending improvement in all areas of your life. For example If you
don’t focus on your health, body, and your living environment- all the
money, career, success and contribution in the world will be worthless.
You can’t experience an extraordinary quality of life without the
vehicle that’s helping to create it because if you don't create change-change will create you.

What is Good Health?
In a dynamic and good state of health, our mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual components all live in harmony with each other. For a wider comprehension of health, we must look at the issue of “healthiness” from a historical viewpoint. The ancient systems of Chinese and Indian medicine go back more than 5,000 years. These cultures used and continue to use Feng Shui, Facial Diagnosis, Nutritional Therapy and whole plants in their treatment, whereas orthodox medicine has limited nutritional training, use extracts from plants which are then replicated by synthetic products, toxic chemicals, radiation, drugs, and conduct unethical treatment of animals. Our entire planet is suffering - as well as the Amazon Rain Forest, the world's greatest natural resource and the most powerful and bio-actively diverse natural phenomenon on the planet and must be protected.
We protect what we value - without proper education and action there is no other way that we will survive the next century.

Invest in your health, your worth it!
Many people live their lives each day feeling tired, fatigued, and run-down. They blame it on getting older, stress, genetics, etc. They get used to feeling this way and eventually it becomes accepted as normal. After a while, they can't remember what it's like to feel really good. Our modern day lifestyles, poor diets and chlorinated water, along with a polluted environment are robbing us of the nutrients we need for optimum health. Our economy races to supply the demand of an exponentially growing population. The only problem is that when the population grows quicker than the earth’s resources, corners get cut. Quality is compromised for convenience, and mass consumption is met with mass production.
How does this affect the food we grow and eventually eat? Mineral-deficient soil produces mineral-deficient foods. And mineral-deficient foods produce mineral-deficient people. No wonder so many people complain of fatigue and lack of energy...many of us are poorly nourished. Depriving the body of vitamins and nutrients it needs creates great internal physiologic stress. Organs work harder and often make compensatory adjustments, like robbing other organs of their nutrients. The body produces more stress hormones like adrenaline and cortisol to cope - which at high levels has detrimental effects on the body and brain, blood pressure is raised, and immune function is suppressed. Combine physiological stress from our diets with the physical, mental, emotional, and environmental stressors of our daily lives, and all of those add up to way beyond what our bodies were designed to deal with. So what's the solution?
Conventional practitioners treat chronic diseases with expensive pharmaceuticals that may temporarily mask pain or uncomfortable symptoms, but do nothing to resolve the underlying cause, and may actually cause other serious adverse side-affects. That's because conventional medicine is focused on treatment, rather than prevention. Wouldn't we rather invest a little money now into our health so we can feel good, live longer, and enjoy life, rather than possibly spend a fortune later? Combining nutrition with a healthy lifestyle is a powerful approach to keep us optimally healthy and well. It's Never too Late to Start Our bodies are made up of cells (about 100 trillion). Millions of cells die each day, while a million new cells are born each and every hour. If the only nutrients ever available to our cells are of poor quality, then it stands to reason that the cells may still use these poor-quality nutrients and manufacture more poor quality cells. Given the power to rebuild, renew, and reinvent ourselves, why not strive for optimal health so we can enjoy our years rather than merely endure them? Positive health changes through lifestyle and nutrition won't happen overnight, but it does happen, and it's never too late to start. http://www.yorhealth.com/goodHealth/enzymes_activate_yor_life/power-of-enzymes.aspx

What is True Healing?
True healing is a transformation. Energy, power and authentic freedom grow as we engage in the process of connecting with our true essence and soul’s purposes and express them in our lives. To do this we need to call on all sorts of tools and techniques from detoxifying body and mind to herbs and natural treatments and exercise for expanding awareness. Take energy for instance. Being able to live out your energy potential depends on how well you nourish yourself - physically, emotionally and spiritually - day by day.
This means developing a lifestyle which incorporates exercise, good food, restorative sleep and the myriad of other possible factors - from hydrotherapy to super nutrients - that help support your own brand of vitality at peak efficiency. But energy too depends on living from your core not by other people’s rules. It depends on living what you love most in some way, what feeds you most at the deepest levels. In discovering this and living more and more in this way you not only fulfill your own life more richly than is possible in any other ways and bring the very highest gifts that you have to give to your family, your community and the earth as a whole. http://www.theartfengshui.ch/health-blog.html
