The essence of a good Feng Shui is also related to a positive energy flow, the most beneficial flows slow, meandering, while non auspicious and aggressive energy behaves as fast and sharp.

The position of the furniture, the doors and the windows, whether it’s small or big, carry energy to the space so try to reduce this speed by deflecting slowly but positively.

Make sure that the energy inside a space stays alive and vibrant, we notice that when a room is closed and empty for a long time, even the smell of the space becomes harmful, opening the windows and cleaning spaces create a new vibrant energy.

So pay attention how energy moves around, just like smoke, and rearrange your space in order to have a free and subtle environment.

For this ancient practice, the bedroom is really important when it comes to achieving a beneficial and harmonious environment, this is because while we are sleeping we absorb all kinds of energy and for long hours, not just for shorter periods of time, as in most rooms of the house.

So, as we recognize that this space needs more care and attention, let’s check some quick easy tips for bringing good energy to your bedroom, and consequently, to your life:

• Start by opening the windows and if it’s possible, clean them also outside, bringing more light to the space;
• If you have curtains, wash them if you haven’t done so recently, they’re a great filter of energy in general;

When applying this way of living, not all of us have the same conditions to achieve the best ecological environment around us.

Nevertheless, our effort and consciousness about this issue is certainly the way to go forward, as we all live in different homes and locations, but how we behave inside our space is what really makes the difference.

A great way to reestablish your balance is with the help of your outdoor space, no matter how small it may be.

When we move to a new home or apartment, usually the first concerns are the number of bedrooms, the size of the kitchen, closet space and in some cases garage. It’s not common to choose a home in the cities because it has a garden or a patio,unless we have pets or a passion for outdoor space, most of us don’t think of that as a priority.

Everyday we are dragged into work and money issues, media information all the time, shopping and planning, all of these things take some of our mental and physical balance. A great way to slow down and find inner peace, could be to create for ourselves, a quiet and cosy corner in our outdoor space. There are several studies about the benefits of green spaces, especially in the cities where is most needed and the levels of stress and yang energy are higher.

So even a small outdoor space could offer you a shelter for daily modern life, and at the same time learning to connect with nature even inside the home, bringing a good Feng Shui around you.

As mentioned in several articles, for Feng Shui practice, the kitchen is very important for the overall energy that circulates inside our homes.

So the refrigerator is also something we should pay attention, as an appliance used to cool food, this process presents water element, as food in general presents metal element (by its components) which when combined stimulate each other and could increase good wealth.

For achieving the best energy, the most important aspect to consider is the expiration date or when you notice that the outlook of the food is getting old, with smells, molds and fungi, all loaded with unbeneficial energy.

Even when you forget or can’t avoid because of having other inhabitants in the house, remember to make a conscious effort by:
– Not to keep food out of date;
– Arrange the food in the fridge so that you can see and access it easily;
– Avoid having it full, not only consumes more power but you will problaby end up having more waste;
– Clean it regularly with natural ingredients, such as vinegar and baking soda to eliminate odors;
– Try to avoid the most, alcoholic drinks, processed foods, high fat foods and prefer genuine and organic food, promoting your health is also fundamental for achieving wealth itself.
