What kind of images do you exhibit in your space?

According to the practice of Feng Shui, we can use images to increase energy in a certain corner or direction of our home or business.

Of course, a plant or a light can have a stronger impact, but still, images also influence human brains, as art-loving beings.

Once we decide where and what image to exhibit, details such as size, material, colors and especially what it represents are fundamental to a balanced and beneficial environment.

It’s best to avoid paintings, pictures, or any other images that show or represent violence, agression, sadness or any negative impression.

Try to incorporate beautiful art, a natural landscape, people or animals in harmony, bringing a pleasant and relaxed feeling of contemplation inside your space, this way you will be inviting a good Feng Shui.

How to position furniture in your living room?

The essence of a good Feng Shui is always related to a positive energy flow.

Once we understand how energy circulates and moves around the space, we are able to apply some principles concerning the layout and the placement of furniture.

So generally, in order to achieve a more balanced environment in your living room, try following these recommendations: 

– Place your sofa with a solid wall behind your back, this way you will be getting support and protection;

– If that’s not possible, you can place a strong piece of furniture behind the sofa for improving a bit the back support;

– Always try to have a good visibility to the door, watching clearly as people enter this space;

– Avoid sitting with your back to a door or window, this might cause situations of being caught off guard and exposed to air blasts;

– A more open living room with less obstacles, brings a positive sense of space and luminosity;

– Place your furniture with special attention to the circulation so that the energy flows without haste as if to meander the space;

– Finally, watch closely if where you are seated, has something sharped pointing at you and keep away from this harmful energy.
