Consultation style is from the Feng Shui Institute of America,
LLC (FSIA) and its Pyramid School of Feng Shui. Similar in methodology to Maslow's well-known "hierarchy of needs,"
this form of practice includes layers of Feng Shui analysis which create a pyramid, with the base layer being the most
supportive and all encompassing.
Each additional layer is important, but not as broad based, or extensive
in supporting the whole. Every consultation will include successive levels of analysis including both traditional elements,
as well as contemporary, social/physical scientific tools.
The FSIA is an educational organization, teaching professionals
how real estate, architecture and interior design influence people's behavior. FSIA is committed to establishing standards
of excellence, disseminating information and training professionals in the field of Pyramid Feng Shui.
Its founder, Nancilee Wydra, has developed programs that have been awarded
continuing education credits from the American Society of Interior Designers (ASID) and the American Institute of Architects
(AIA). An overview and history can be found at the Feng Shui Institute International Website.
