- By modernising Feng Shui, the idea is to bring a new perspective onto what feng shui really is, and how we can use it to have a greater awareness of our environment and the people around us.
Thierry Chow is a designer and a C apprentice. After obtaining her Bachelor of Applied Illustration from Sheridan College in Toronto, Canada, she began working on various design projects.
In 2011 she started apprenticing under her father, Mr. Chow Hon Ming, a well-respected Feng Shui Master who for the past 30 years has been practicing from his base in Hong Kong.
In 2013, she founded TRE, a contemporary feng shui concept that provides a fresh new outlook which incorporates creative ideas modernizing Feng Shui with a 21st century twist.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx
This doesn't explain feng shui at all.. this is her slideshow resume lol
yeah...
this is about her and her business....
I saw it from the begining.
I disliked the video a few moments later.
Went to comment section to see whether i was right.
Agree. Very misleading
TED fail
Thank you people of the comment section for saving my time and not watching this.
@just another human ouch, sorry for that. Lesson learned I guess, to check the comments for first.
😜👍
Sadly I didn't check the comments beforehand ;/
I don’t this talk was bad but a title like this draws people in but also sets an expectation for a mindblow. I think you definitely have several mind-blows within here but with time your delivery and rhythm improve. You’re already a tremendous speaker and confident!
All she is doing is advertising her company
I was seeking help to organize and harmonize my life and surroundings, this talk made me feel relatively organized.
Not the worst speech ever heard on a topic but her speech is mostly "I, ME, time I was in place X,"
Not sure what I was supposed to learn.
I don't really feel like I learned anything...
Well there is nothing here to learn. Hopefully someone can help her reevaluate her video and maybe try it again. I've been very critical of this video but I would give another chance. We all could use a second chance!
@@jayumble4113 I bin rairwhee kwickull as well...
I believer her when she says she didn't do well at school
Damn, I forgot everything I knew about feng shui like she told me to do and watched until 9:13... Now I'm back to square one
Feng shui with capitalist characteristics.
This the first time ever TedX brought me a video of zero value. Learned nada!
Nada? There was so much information involving Feng Shui in her talk!! 😮
1. Feng shui has elements of artistic thinking and creativity, & ppl who have skills in those fields may have intuitive understanding of or be drawn to feng shui.
2. Although comprehensive and in-depth in many areas of life, Feng shui can be easy to learn and there are simple methods to begin start with.
3. Feng shui is a practical method & also a way of thinking to improve home & all aspects of life.
4. Feng shui can be (& many inc the speaker herself believes) a practical solution to the worlds crises (which included one close to her heart - hundreds of Hong Kong citizens living in cages for homes!!)
5. It isn't the big, complex, woohoo/magic/superstitious belief many think it is, its a way of life that can be applied simply by most people.
6. She believes it can save the world and make people happier by connecting people with nature again/more (and she's using feng shui to do that)
She told you all this through stories of her life & work experiences and her goals (all involving feng shui!).
Are you used to the same repetitive format of talks then switch off when one of them isn't that? Cos there was so much info in there to get from that.
This isn’t Feng Shui, & doesn’t do justice to Feng Shui.
I finally found Dora
Lol Isn’t Dora Hispanic?
Kailan snatched Dora's wig
Omg….yes!
lol
I really love feng shui and Thierry Chow, listening to her videos I learn a lot, tks u
ok i watched the whole video due to bad comments in conclusion she may know feng shui to be there however she went on circles talking about herself and career.I think she wanted to persue the audience with her achievements but she forgot one little detail to talk about feng shui 😅😅
The comments were so bad I literally had to watch it.. and I can't unwatch it now.. I can't go back..it's with me now.. Burned into my brain forever. all because I didn't heed the warning signs but you..you can turn back now.. Watch the next video whatever it is and forget you ever stumbled upon this..this video
This is baaaaaaaaaaad on all levels.
A tip to all, you need to use a chinese LUOPAN, which is a compass to
really take any readings in your house, as there are interference found
inside your house or office. Second, you need to know WHERE to place the
Luopan inorder to really know which is the exact sector or we call it
ba gua palace accurately inorder to be able to tap into the energies
that you want to manipulate inorder gain something out of nothing. And
now, this is the part where different fengshui school came up with
different theories in placing luopan! As this is actually a very BIG
SECRET, which separates out whether you r always a student or you can be
a Master like me. But even after you really manage to found out the
true way of using and placing the luopan, one would still need to study
loads and loads of fengshui theory that are only written and found in
olden classical texts and wordings that is almost making it extremely
difficult for one who doesnt comprehend chinese to read at all because
even most modern chinese themselves cant understand most of it as these
text are written in olden chinese manuscripts. So in the end, my advise
is to engage a professional fengshui master, preferably be of chinese
ethnic because there are really super rare westerners who can comprehend
these chinese ancient texts by themselves. But even if they have a
Grand Master to consult to, normally these grandmaster would not be
teaching 100% of their skills and knowledge to anyone, be it you are a
chinese or other ethnic, unless you are of their own bloodline, as this
is the traditional chinese culture and believe. Well, many of you out
here may just think that its a simple ba gua direction, estimation of it
will do, but pls be cautious of playing with the energy without certain
level of skills or knowledge, as the would cause death or illness
suddenly! As over my past 10 years in practice, many clients had
encounter many great mishaps due to their lack of knowledge in
mishandling of fengshui by themselves, which in the end they engage me
to help them to clear up their mess being made. As due to my
experiences, people who start to do fengshui themselves are mostly
because of they are starting to experience some bad luck initially and
hope to made good to them. However, they had forgotten that since Mr Bad
luck had started to visit them, he will be visit them more and more
often even so! Thus, when one decided to try out fengshui by themselves,
their mind and energy had already been affected by mr bad luck's
negative energy! Thus, causing one to make even more wrong fengshui
decisions that would lead to even more grave mistakes ultimately. This
is my piece of advice to share and hope to help anyone who are fated to
read this to lessen their ill fate in time to come.
nobodybusiness wonderzman wow. thats interesting. I came across a feng shui video years ago and it talked about how "western" feng shui was pretty much wrong since they try to simplify how it's done and that most don't really comprehend it. like example, an American feng shui told a couple to put flowers in their living area and it's okay if the flowers were fake/plastic. she just walked around the room and told them to put crystals and such. I don't know feng shui but I thought FAKE flowers were odd. where are you located?
This is very good advice I just got schooled
You got me at, deaths or illness.
If you think too much you may feel ill, that's natural.
if you dwell and stop eating\drinking, you may die, that's natural.
This is the part of feng shui that i do not really like, beliefs are... schizophrenia.
spiritually, people are connected, through, music, cause we share the same interests.
I just bought a bracelet and i'm going to keep wearing it. Because i think there is more to it than silly ghost stories.
Martial arts is everything, i'm a huge Jackie Chan fan and Jet li etc... Dynasty warriors and Blade & Soul are good video games.
And beliefs should be that. Art. Like the Bible. It's a book. Made by some old geezer in a cave.
So confusing this video doesn’t explain everything!
Really very disappointing nothing was thought her dream didn't help us at all.
The core of Chinese fengshui knowledge comes from only two lineages: the Yang Gong system (Classical Fengshui) and the Flying Star system (New Era Fengshui). The Yang Gong fengshui system dates back to the end of the Tang dynasty, while the Flying Star system is a newer one that traces its origins back 400 years.
I love Thierry chow, I too have practice Feng Shui for over 20 years. I recommend you do more research on this young lady... I relate more to her expression of Feng Shui, being an artist myself 💜
I enjoyed it !
This is an excellent innovation, and also an example of the “LIFE” in the living”!!! ...A robot will not understand...For those who resist...Are you a robot?).
I didn't actually learn anything about Feng Shui...
...
she said she was about modern feng shui, but then she linked it to astrologic and colors, which are both kinda mystical.
the explanation is not clear: we would like to have more information
understanding fung shui, makes you a precog. the path of lest\more resistance. choose wisely. situational awareness. calculus
Was that an interview for getting into school? She wants to help people living in cage housing but she hasn’t and she hasn’t taught us anything about them or their situation or her designs for improving them. She wants help people get in touch with nature but she hasn’t actually done anything about that either so she has nothing to report. I’d say this talk is a result of young people taking selfies from the time they are small. No substance but documented
Uhm sorry what
Omg I love her. That’s my life story ❤️
This video must be deleted, it’s useless and waste of CZcams’s storage.
CZcams doesn't have a storage limit
you might not like it but this is what peak feng shui know how looks like
ROTFWL
If it's possible to determine something that will happen based on the birthday... should it not also be possible to determine someones birthday based on what happened to him during the last year?
no. the inverse is not always true. you can have several paths that reach the same conclusion, meaning you cannot use the conclusion to determine the path you started from.
@@templarknight7 but if you have several paths that started from the same point and lead to the same conclusion, shouldn't that make it even easier to tell the starting point based on paths and conclusion?
@@donalain69 no, the paths don't start at the same point. they only end at the same point. For example, suppose you have a city D that can only be reached from city A, B, or C. Just because I know you're in city D doesn't mean I know which city you started from (A, B, or C) to reach city D.
@@templarknight7 Makes sense. if the starting point varies, you won't be able to trace it back. But there must be some mathematical rule that connects the birthdays that lead to the same result when using the same path. It should be at least possible to trace back that rule and calculate what birthdays are possible starting points, or not?
I don't like to be critical, but that was all about ego, about "me", and nothing about feng shui. I hope she is a good feng shui teacher, designer and consultant, but there is no way to tell from this.
As the I Ching says, "He who stands on tip toe is not stable. He who shows himself does not shine."
@@prajnaseek Well said
I missed something??..........
UpTown Girl Yes, about 10 minutes of your precious time!
1st viewer and 1st commentator.
i watch until 8:43 .. after indtrocing herself, she explains how she proceeds with feng shui customers. ... sorry next
Hindvani announcera
These comments got me weak.. not the best speaker or explainer but I wish her the best.
Dont watch! Its just a poorly done ad
this sucks like a HOOVER Windtunnel™ Cyclonic Pet Vacuum Cleaner (UH700)
i just want to know where to put my couch
👍👌
this is horrible. instead of talking about what feng shui is, she advertise her company.
Permaculture and Feng Shui
She kinda missed the mark here, no?
Big time!
I enjoyed the presentation
She’s cute
I am surprised that the comments are so negative, I naturally thought that people listening to TedX are on a different journey than the rest and that we would be more enduring and search for the deeper meaning and value of the message even if it does not seems obvious. She modernized Feng Shui in order to accommodate the millennials so that they can relate.
The comments are not negative. There's no hate here.
Honest constructive conclusions based on the title not being congruent with the talk.
Agree....everything evolves. It's only natural.
@@dannac_8888 I hated it!
We don't need to accommodate to Millenials. Millenials need to accommodate to elders.
Personally if theres a video or anything that peaks my interest and I initially do not like it. Its simply not my time to view it. I come back to it with the speed of 1.25x incase people talk a bit slow. I enjoyed her take on feng shui. The title is misleading. This is just her sharing her experience and perspective of her world.
This was AWFULLLLLLLL
I don't know anything about Feng Shui. Nothing changed.
This is just this chic’s report on her own life and doesn’t teach much about actual feng shui. 🙄
I could do a much better 10min talk on feng shui without knowing anything about it!
And the point of the talk was...?
Ticking off a TedX talk off her achievement list!
I need my 11 minutes back please.
You're advertising
I mean yeah, ur comments are not wrong!
But let's not be this harsh on her
No takeaway from this talk.
Interesting.
She doesn't explain Feng Shui simply because it is bunk.
what was this??
It’s all about me, me me …
Was she forced to do this presentation and did someone else name it for her?
Useless talk. She spent 4 mins reading her biography. And the rest promoting her company
Nobody cares why is this in youtube...omg 😒
I didn’t learn anything
throw away 50%
Doooo not watch. Nothing to do with feng shui at all AT ALL!
Why?
Video not worth watching
What a terrible talk. Don't waste your time.
I, I, I,I,I I and I and nothing to learn
This is total bs...omg, cut me a freaking break! I feel sorry for her because this presentation is so pathetic. Yeah, there is nothing here to learn about feng shui. I'm surprised that there isn't a review committee for these presentations. This video should simply have been rejected.
The personality of a paper bag.
Lololol
What's this about? A personal resume China style? Too much wind, too little water dear!
XD
Unfortunately this is much more about that young lady and her business than Feng Shui 🤷🏻♀️
Let me guess, she's an only child?
Hahahahaha
I can't get her point and I do réalisé it happen often to me while relating to chinese 🇨🇳 ppl
i dont usually leave comments, but this isnt great
Ugh this was painful to watch. Terrible presentation. Way below Ted standards.
zero info, life flex??
💩!
Presentation childlike 😀😃Studying start and nature bla bla bla
If you don't know what pseudo science meas then I understand why you believe in this product.
lmao... ok then.
Feng Shui's rules are total BS. Better learn to be energy sensitive and follow its rules. And this speech was a complete time waste.
Is this video about her or feng shui? Her significance driven presentation style makes it hard to follow. She sounds unrehearsed and unprepared. Pretty disappointing for a TedX talk.
So bad on so many levels!
She talks gibberish. And she's all over the place. She didn't explain anything about Feng Shui.
Waste of time. Don't watch
boring, better to delete this.
Waste of time
that was terrible
10 mins of my life wasted
This sucks
Yawn 🥱
It's the worst TedX that I have seen.
