Feng Shui Master Shan-Tung Hsu, Ph.D.
Balance, naturalness and common sense are the core of Dr. Hsu's feng shui teaching. Dr. Hsu's understanding of ancient Chinese philosophy, Taoist and Buddhist meditation practices, and energy work of Qigong and Tai Chi, combined with his extensive scientific background and his decades of experience in the practice and teaching of feng shui, have created a unified understanding of the relationship between human beings and their environment. Dr. Hsu emphasizes that the true feng shui principles are universal; they are independent of religion, culture, and custom.
Born in Taiwan, Dr. Hsu was guided by his father and other masters, from childhood on, in all aspects of the disciplines that involve the development and exploration of life force (chi or qi). His formal education, on the other hand, which culminated in his Ph.D. from the University of Washington, provided the balance of rigorous scientific training.
In addition to founding the Blue Mountain Feng Shui Institute, Dr. Hsu's accomplishments include:
- Introducing Tai-Chi to the Pacific Northwest of the United States
- Establishing the Five Willow Tai-Chi Association in Seattle, Washington, USA
- Founding, with others, the Northwest Institute of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine
- Establishing the Northwest Qigong Training and Research Institute
- Serving on the board of the International Medical Qigong Association headquartered in Beijing
- Publishing World Qigong Magazine
Dr. Hsu provides consultation and education in all aspects of feng shui to major corporations, small businesses, and individuals all over the world. Blue Mountain Feng Shui Institute, originally founded in Seattle, Washington, USA, is growing, with students currently in Europe, Russia, Taiwan, China, America and South America.
Along with his feng shui instruction and consultation, Dr. Hsu is in the midst of authoring a nine-book series of feng shui manuals. He has published Fundamentals of Feng Shui, The Yin and Yang of Love and both have been published in many languages. His recent novel The Medicine Box has received 2007 Independent Publisher Gold Medal book award.
