Simple Feng Shui Rules For Bedrooms
The principles of Feng Shui are particularly important in the bedroom as its a room
that most of us spend more time in than any other - about a third of our lives in. And to most of us, the bedroom is also a room where we can hopefully escape from work, noisy children and the stresses of everyday life. A bedroom should be a room that is conducive to a good nights sleep, relaxation and perhaps romance. A dark, untidy and unwelcoming bedroom can create feelings of lethargy and depression, especially when you are asleep but your mind is still active.
This is the first thing you see when you enter the bedroom, the focal point of the room it could be anything from a large painting, photograph, fireplace or striking piece of furniture. As far as the decoration of your bedroom goes, try to avoid stimulating colors like red and gold on the walls instead, use relaxing colors such as pastel blue, green or yellow and Before you even enter the bedroom itself, the doorway is important in Feng Shui. It is good to have a door that opens at least 90 degrees, anything less than this is considered restrictive and symbolically may prevent good luck or good opportunities from entering your life.
The placement of furniture is important too to avoid a jarring' effect, or in Fung Shui tradition, a symbolic poison arrow pointing at you try to avoid having a sharp corner facing your bed. Mirrors should not be placed at the foot of the bed, rather to the side of the bed or at an angle. Try to not place your bed under an exposed beam this is considered a symbol of oppression and will subconsciously offset any feelings of peace or harmony your bedroom gives you.
The position of the bed itself is extremely important in creating a peaceful and uncluttered environment for your bedroom. Most people instinctively know where to place their bed, taking into account the size and shape of the room, window and door placement, other furniture, overhead lighting, etc. These decisions as to where best to place a particular thing form many of the basics of Feng Shui. Feng Shui practitioners also claim you are in the command position, meaning a feeling of confidence and power if you are able to see your bedroom door when you wake in the morning. However, it is not considered good to have your feet in direct alignment with the bedroom door the ancient Chinese considered this the death position. If you have an adjoining bathroom opening onto your bedroom, keep the bathroom door closed so nothing can subconsciously disturb your sleep.If you want your bedroom to be a place for romance, Feng Shui has some tips for you too. Apart from the usual romantic symbols such as hearts and flowers, try placing pairs of objects in your bedroom. This will increase your chances of a fulfilling romantic encounter.
Try not to have work-related items in your bedroom such as books, papers and a computer. Your mind may dwell on work and associated stress even when you are sleep. Dont store junk and odds and ends under your bed, and if you have one of those beds with drawers in it, keep only clean clothes or sheets in the drawers. Clutter on top of dressers and a wardrobe tends to subconsciously obstruct your ability to think clearly and in an organized manner, and if you see the clutter when you wake first thing in the morning, you may feel lethargic or depressed without realizing why.
