We might not see energy flowing, but if we pay close attention, our instincts are able to tell us which parts of our home we like the most.

Of course that with a Feng Shui study, we can accurate information on the best placement or orientation for each inhabitant, for example a Fire element person can feel great at South corner direction.

But still, if you already know where do you feel best in your home, try to create a cozy space where you can relax, read or even take a nap.

Illuminate this space with adjustable lamps, not forcing your eyesight and avoiding wasted energy.

For preventing allergies and feeling of discomfort, try using organic and ecological materials in pillows and blankets, such as responsibly produced cotton, fabrics made from bamboo, hemp or linen.

Surround this environment with things you love, like plants, your favorite magazines, a soft blanket, aromatic candles,etc.

Having your own personal corner can help you find the peace you need while gaining energy and strength to beat life’s daily challenges.

Front doors are one of the most important aspects of a Feng Shui study.

Not only because they represent the “mouth” of the home, where most of the energy enters, but also because they separate the outside world from our inside universe.

While visiting Dublin city I took this picture and noticed most of the front doors are made of solid wood and each one with its own color, red, blue, yellow, black, pink, you name it, this is mostly for habitants to identify more easily their homes.

A red door like this for example, could be great for a South front house and adding this 2 plants on each side helps even more to bring balance to the front door.

So in order to welcome a positive energy to your front door:

• Have a clear path, free from obstacles;
• Guests should find your home easily;
• The door should open smoothly with no difficulty;
• Everything should be functioning properly, like the door bell, the lock, etc.

Check this general recommendations about your front door and always work with a professional Feng Shui consultant for better results.

Do you love fresh flowers at home?

Placing fresh flowers to bring your home a reinvigorating environment, is a great way to shift quickly the energy flow.

Fresh flowers are considered Yang energy, so most of the times they should be placed in more active rooms, such as dining, living rooms and entry halls.

Avoid them in the bedrooms where the energy should be calmer,unless somebody is convalescent or sick, in this case it will be great to elevate that person’s condition.

One important aspect of the flowers is that as soon as they start to wither, we should throw them out immediately, just like dry leaves, they represent stagnant and lifeless energy.

When choosing types and colors, choose according to your personal taste or with the direction in which it will be placed, like this example of yellow flowers at Northeast, one of the colors of the Earth element.

Most of the times, it can be quite difficult that every home and room have a perfect Feng Shui.

So the first things we should do, even before upgrading to advanced studies, is to improve the bedroom energy with this quick and easy advice:

• Bedrooms should be simple, too much color and decor will ruin a peaceful environment;
• Always try to place the bed diagonally in relation to the door;
• The bed should be against a solid wall and keeping a good distance from the windows;
• Refresh the air of your bedroom every morning by opening the windows;
• Never sleep with your head or feet directly pointed at the door:
• Avoid placing the bed under an exposed beam from the ceiling;
• The rectangular or square forms are the best for bedrooms;
• Clean white sheets and a well made bed will make you feel just like in a hotel;
• Prefer natural fabrics in your textiles, such as cotton or linen;
• Finally but not less important, love your bedroom and treat it like a sanctuary because a great part of our life is spent there.

One of the most popular Classic Feng Shui Schools is San Yuan, generally speaking, this school uses this important instrument, the Luo Pan, to give us another layer of information about a house or a building.

Only professionals and masters of this ancient method can give a precise and accurate measure, combining valuable information like form, direction and time.

The place where the measure should take place is always outside the front door of the house, meaning that if we live in an apartment, it would be the door of the building.

Also placing the Luo Pan leaning against the door and at the level of our energetic centre, is the proper way for measurement.

Magnetic interference can cause difficulties in finding the magnetic North, which is the starting point when doing this type of study, so when the needle is stable and aligned it’s called, correct needle.

If you want to know more information about the home you live or your workplace, this method is very efficient and is able to provide us much of the energetic matrix of any space.
