Your bedroom is intended to be your haven of tranquility, a place where you can escape your stress and truly relax. There are ways in which you can structure your bedroom to receive positive and calming energy. To achieve the perfect bedroom Feng Shui, you must make certain adjustments to the room. These include changing colours, repositioning your French Bed and adding or removing certain items that will have a calming effect on your soul. Here are some Feng Shui bedroom tips for you to take home.
Feng Shui is definitely not a new trend in bedroom re-arrangement. It is an ancient spiritual activity that helps your internal harmony function in coherence with your external surroundings. This is because, in Feng Shui, Chi flows through physical objects in an area. Energy falls into two categories: Ying and Yang. Because you spend a considerable amount of your life in your bedroom, it is important that your bedroom has a balanced amount of Ying and Yang and lets your Chi flow freely.
Firstly, the layout and design affects bedroom Feng Shui. It is essential that your bed is placed in the right area so as to let the Chi flow freely in the space. This position is known as the Command Position. A good place to place your bed is in line with your bedroom door, but Feng Shui suggests that it not be directly in front of it. Make sure that your double bed is easily approachable from both sides and that it has a bedside table on either side for balance. It is also important that you have a firm mattress, a dominant headboard and high quality sheets, which will contribute to harmonious sleep.
Secondly, remove any computers, televisions, exercise equipment, work desks and similar items. These destroy the good energy you’re trying to achieve with your Feng Shui bedroom. Rather replace these items with flowers or inspiring artwork. Light and air are important aspects of obtaining harmony in your bedroom. Make sure that you constantly open your windows and use an air purifier in order to have the continuous movement of air throughout the area. Lighting should never be too harsh and, where appropriate, candles should be used. The choice of colours should also be considered. Opt for more neutral, earthy hues with a touch of colour.
Finally, there are some objects that you can include in your bedroom Feng Shui design that will help you attract what you desire into your life:
- Books and a bookcase for knowledge
- Creativity enrichment in the form of art supplies
- Paired objects to enhance romance
- Mirrors for a blossoming career
