In Chinese culture, good health is associated with water and wind. Before 3000 years, Chinese people found some method for good health and fortune. They found that good health completely depends on the natural sources like Wind and water. So they named that as Feng - wind Shui - water.
Fengshui is a famous around the world nowadays.
One of the main Feng shui tools is Bamboo... let’s know about Bamboo.
LUCKY BAMBOO
Lucky Bamboo is one of the favourite
choices of cure in fengshui. Bamboo brings peace and positive energy into our
home. Generally, bamboo is a great oxygen producer. So it gives plenty of
oxygen in our home. If we breathe easily and inhale non-polluted oxygen, our
health is always in good condition.
It
is easy to grow and requires less care only. We can plant bamboo in a small
glass vessel full of water. It will grow rapidly. Otherwise, we can plant it in
soil in a small pot. It doesn’t need much sunlight. So it will grow in our home
itself, much more flexibly.
Lucky
Bamboo is a kind of Dracaena family bamboo. Dracaena – it’s a tropical indoor
plant.
Lucky
Bamboo is really lucky, when you get it as a gift. Lucky Bamboo gives good
luck and prosperity in our home. It removes the negative energy flow from our
home and spread full of positive energy. It gives long life because it produces
