There’s something magical that happens when you step into a space that just feels good. The air feels lighter, your mind calms down, and suddenly everything seems to flow more easily. That’s the power of feng shui. For thousands of years, this ancient practice has been used to arrange homes and environments in a way that balances energy, attracts abundance, and supports harmony in every area of life.
But if you’ve ever googled “feng shui tips,” you know it can feel a little overwhelming. That’s why I always recommend starting with books. Feng shui books give you not just quick tips, but the deeper why behind the practice — making it easier to apply in a way that actually sticks. Whether you’re curious about boosting wealth energy, finding peace at home, or designing a space that feels like pure spiritual glamour, the right book can completely shift your perspective.
Over the years, I’ve read dozens of books on feng shui, and today I’m sharing the ones that have made the biggest difference in my own home and life. These are the best feng shui books for beginners and beyond — books that are practical, inspiring, and easy to implement no matter where you are on your journey.
So if you’re ready to create a high-vibe home that feels aligned with your soul, here are the feng shui books you’ll want to add to your reading list.
The Best Feng Shui Books to Transform Your Home’s Energy
1. The Inner Beauty Bible by Laurey Simmons.
I am currently in love with this book. Full of beautiful photos and gorgeous rituals you can do at home, its the perfect start to getting your Feng Shui & chi on the right track.
I am a big believer in creating a sacred space, setting up altars and practicing beautiful rituals. This book will really help to inspire you to do just that. Enjoy!
2. Houseplants for a Healthy Home by Jon VanZile.
This book really is SUCH a help and so much fun to read. The illustrations are pretty and this really explains the world of plants for those of us who really just don't get it. Sort of like plants for dummies. This can be very helpful when setting your home up for good Feng Shui. ( Image via @gritandglamour )
3. Move your stuff, Change your life by Karen Rauch Carter
This is probably one of the most popular feng shui books out there — and for good reason. It’s fun, easy to read, and packed with actionable tips you can start using today. Carter has a playful, no-nonsense writing style that makes feng shui feel approachable, even if you’ve never heard of the Bagua map before. If you want a book that simplifies feng shui while still being powerful, this is it.
Best for: Beginners who want feng shui explained in a simple, fun, and practical way.
4. The Holistic Home by Laura Benko
This book is so beautiful and is right along with my mindset and way of living. If you love pretty design and Feng Shui, this will be a fun read for you.
5. Feng Shui Personal Paradise Cards by Terah Katheryn Collins
If you aren't much of a reader, I always suggest trying cards. It helps to keep these simple. I love this author, too. She has an array of fantastic books on Feng Shui.
6. Feng Shui for the Soul by Denise Linn
If you’re drawn to the spiritual and energetic side of feng shui, this book is pure magic. Denise Linn goes beyond just furniture placement and teaches you how to create a home that nourishes your soul. She emphasizes the importance of energy clearing, intention-setting, and designing a sacred space that feels deeply aligned with your personal journey. Every time I pick up this book, I’m reminded that feng shui isn’t just about decorating — it’s about cultivating a lifestyle of harmony and peace.
Best for: Anyone craving a more soulful, spiritual connection to their home.
7. Feng Shui Your Life by Jayme Barrett
This book is all about bringing feng shui into your modern lifestyle. Barrett writes in such a relatable way and covers how to use feng shui not just in your home, but in your career, relationships, and overall wellness. It’s inspiring, practical, and full of gorgeous photography. Every chapter feels like a little lifestyle guide, making it easy to see how feng shui can touch every part of your daily life.
Best for: Anyone who wants to blend feng shui with modern wellness and lifestyle design.
Feng shui isn’t just about where you place your furniture — it’s about creating a home that supports your dreams, nourishes your energy, and reflects who you are becoming. These books are some of the best resources to help you dive deeper into the practice, whether you’re brand new to feng shui or ready to take your knowledge to the next level.
Each author brings a unique perspective, so don’t feel like you need to read them all at once. Start with the book that resonates most with your current season of life — maybe that’s clearing clutter, inviting more abundance, or designing a soulful sanctuary — and let the wisdom guide you.
Your home is a mirror of your life. By shifting your space, you shift your energy, and by shifting your energy, you open the door to more balance, flow, and abundance in every area.
