			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When people think of Feng Shui, they usually think of Feng Shui mirrors or <a href="http://fengshuimirrorplacement.blogspot.com/">Feng Shui mirror placement</a>. But this ancient Chinese practice is in fact more than the mirrors and it&#8217;s placement, far more. Lately though, with the down economy, and an increasing need to find equilibrium in our lives and in our homes, we noticed a rise in interest in the Feng Shui way of life.</p>
<p>Feng Shui is not merely about rearranging your home for equilibrium of harmonious energy; it&#8217;s also a way of life. It&#8217;s neither mysticism and not some fad religion. Feng Shui is about well-being, balance as well as harmony. It is actually well researched science which is used to literally form your world so that you can enjoy good health, prosperity and wealth in all parts of life.</p>
<p>In other words, Feng Shui provides effective methods to accomplish the changes you would like to have in your life.

<div><em><strong>T S</strong> asked: </em><br/><br/><br/>I am trying to accumulate financial aid for this upcomin fall semester and it is a lot harder than it was a year ago.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve tried applying to 3 different institutions for private student loans and we keep getting denied. And I also have a cosigner. My cosigner has the same credit score that she did a year ago (when she cosigned on my loan for last year) and she isn&#8217;t getting approved other&#8230;..so what else factors into the loan decision? What makes this year different from last year?</p>
<p>Also, what other sources of financial aid can I try&#8230;private student loans were my last resort.<br/><br/></div>
