Consultations

A visit or a treatment from a Feng Shui or Dowsing practitioner is referred to as a consultation.  Such consultations are available from Ced Jackson, who is on the professional register of the Feng Shui Society, the British Society of Dowsers, and the Spirit Release Foundation.

It is useful to have a specific objective in mind when requesting a consultation. 

Such an objective could relate, for example, to health, career, relationships, finance, friends, creative activity, or spiritual issues.

Three main topics will be considered :

  • The Client

  • The Location (i.e. the house, garden and surrounding area)

  • The Client in relation to their location 

In practical terms this includes...
 

A Dowsing Survey of the Property
This will establish the presence - if any - of lines or zones of detrimental energy, sometimes known as Geopathic Stress.

Particular note will be taken of detrimental energy which affects areas in which people spend a good deal of time, such as the bedroom, or a favourite armchair.
 

Changes to transform the detrimental energy
This might include earth acupuncture, dowsing, etc.


'Predecessor Energy'
A consideration of the impact of what has happened in the past (within the property), on the present, and as a result, on the current occupants.  If necessary, work will be done to clear any remaining unhelpful influences.


An examination of the house and site and neighbourhood
from a Feng Shui perspective.

This is known as 'Form School' Feng Shui, and is intended to identify problems which might affect different members of the household, and the simple steps that can be taken to improve the situation. 

Landscape Influences
The way a house fits into the landscape may affect how comfortable we feel within it.  In areas where the landscape is 'strong' - as in the Lake District or around the Malvern Hills - this could be important for the well-being of the occupants.

Orientation
Known as 'Compass School' Feng Shui, the orientation of the house and the plot (which direction it faces) will be considered for favourable and unfavourable influences, and appropriate action identified.

An examination will be made of electrical, magnetic and microwave radiation within the property...
...especially in the bedroom, and other places where people spend a good deal of of time.  Thought will be given to what can be done to reduce exposure. 
 

  • Clock radios, powered from the mains, a few inches from your head, are a very bad idea

  • Hairdryers are often left plugged-in within bedrooms.  Even if they are switched off at the hairdryer itself, they always  carry current (unless they are completely unplugged), and hairdryers are really small electric fires. 

  • Good quality electrical, magnetic and microwave radiation meters are used to measure the amount of radiation present, and ways of reducing the amount of exposure are identified. 
     

Time and tide
The astrology of the various members of the household may be considered


Protection from unhelpful influences

An assessment will be made and recommendations supplied.


The Consultation
If you would like to explore the possibility of a consultation, please ring 01684 560265.

It is useful if you can be as clear as possible about why you would like to have a consultation, and what you would like to achieve. 

It is also fine if you consider that your house 'just doesn't feel right', or 'that something is adrift' which you would like to sort out.

The consultation will take place at your home.
 

Your family
If you are married or live with a partner it is ideal if both of you can be present for the consultation, especially if the issue affects you both.  If that is not possible, or if you would prefer, the consultation could take place with just yourself present.
 

The consultation and personal support
So that you feel completely comfortable during the consultation,  you may wish to invite a friend to be present.  However, please be aware that the consultation may raise personal issues. 

My photo appears on this website so you will know you that you are letting the right person into your house. 


The day of the consultation
Do not feel that you have to clean the house or tidy things up.  In fact, it is much better if the house is in its usual condition.

You are recommended not to do anything immediately after the consultation which involves clambering about on ladders, or detailed paper work.  If you can avoid driving for the rest of the day that would be ideal.  If you do have to drive, give yourself plenty of time for your journey. 


Remembering what was said during the consultation !
You are welcome to take notes if you wish.  A follow up letter can be provided.

You may tape record the consultation, though in my experience recording something over a long period of time - with at least two participants who may be moving around the house - is often not as successful as making notes.


Decide what you want from the consultation
Be as clear as possible about what it is that you want.   
 

Confidentiality
Consultations are always confidential and the privacy of the client is respected.  Feng Shui is a large and complicated subject and in certain cases, the consultant may wish to refer to colleagues who are experts in particular fields.  In such cases no information identifying the client is revealed to third parties.


Personal Health and Healing

Feng Shui & Dowsing are usually thought of activities related to a house or a piece of land, and much attention will be paid to land and property issues during the visit.

However, Feng Shui & dowsing are what might be called 'energetic' processes.  Not  'energetic' in the sense of leaping about, but in terms of studying the energies present. 

These energies - whether they be within the land or the human body - can be adjusted, and though dowsing is usually thourhgt of as a way of identifying an issue (in the same way in which it can be used to identify the location of a pipe in a field), dowsing can also be used as part of an series of changes.

For example, the American dowser and healer Joey Korn uses dowsing as part of a process to adjust energies present in the land and in people.  Ced has studied extensively with Joey.

As part of his consultations Ced therefore offers - if appropriate - a variety of dowsing and feng shui related personal healing approaches, including hands-on (shoulders) healing, no-contact energetic massage (the hand is held around four inches above the body), and other dowsing approaches.
