The bed area in the bedroom.

For Feng Shui practice how and where we sleep has a big influence on our general well being.

So to find the best orientation or location to the bed, is different for each one of us and only advance studies could give that information with more detail, so no need to go and change your bed to the North just because you read it somewhere, start with what you can do by yourself and for better results always consider having a professional Feng Shui guidance.

Nevertheless, and accordingly to most of the experts in this matter, there are some things we can do to improve the energy of the bedroom:

▫️It’s not recommended to have something heavy above the bed, like shelves or a big heavy piece of art, this might create an unstable energy that can disturb a proper sleep;

▫️Also beneath the bed you might check if the energy is flowing in a way that is possible to clean all the dust that is usually there;

▫️If you keep objects under the bed, only bed clothing is preferable, keeping it properly organized and clean;

▫️Mirrors reflecting the bed are also not recommended;

▫️Finally, too much clutter and synthetic linens will also ruin the Feng Shui of the bedroom, most of all it should be a great place to rest and sleep, where we can recharge our energy everyday.

Spring is just outside.

Springtime and just like the flowers, we couldn’t wait to get outside again.

Outdoor spaces and gardens are also very important for Feng Shui practice, even though people often care more about the house itself.

All transformations can be observed in life, inside or outside our spaces, but the strength of the energy of the sun is more powerful than the light of a lamp.

So as fire, earth, metal, water and tree elements are always around us, we should look for them also outside and benefit from this source of energy in a more natural state.

If you have the chance of having an outdoor space, even if it’s small, don’t discard this opportunity
to find a greater balance between nature and ourselves.

Now it’s time to enjoy what this corner can do for you with these small tips:

  • A sunny area, but with some shadow so that doesn’t become too hot;
  • A rest area with comfortable pillows and seating;
  • Plants, a vegetable garden that could be grown even in pots, vertical gardens in walls are also a great solution for those who have lack of space;
  • Finally, prefer natural and recycled materials as much as possible having a more sustainable and respectful attitude towards the environment.

Bathrooms and Feng Shui.

Bathrooms could be quite challenging in terms of Feng Shui, especially if they are located right at the center of the home, which is very common in most apartments.

The water element is obviously the predominant energy inside bathrooms, meaning that in here water dominates the entire space, nevertheless, balancing with the other elements is essential for a more harmonious environment.

Generally, the best directions to place a bathroom are North, East and Southeast but having a professional Feng Shui guidance could accurate the best location.

In terms of decor, we should try not to use too many objects, prefer a simple, clean and spa sensation where we can feel relaxed and reinvigorated.

One of the most common problems bathrooms have are dripping taps, clogged pipes, infiltrations and water waste. This issues should be fixed rapidly because water’s movement, or lack of it, may replicate the flow of energy in our lives.

Once you achieve a flowing energy in this space, you might experience water energy guiding you with fluidity and wisdom as its natural ability.

Home collections and Feng Shui .

Collections used to be considered as an important part of a home, ultimately reflected how prosperous a family was, from paintings to sculptures, rugs and pottery, books, stamps, tea cups, cutlery, home textiles and so much more.

Most of us live in such a different way nowadays, but how do we care about our collections is a great indicator whether they are just clutter or not, so if your collections are closed and forgotten in some storage then maybe this stagnant energy isn’t bringing anything good to your home.

By other hand, if they are properly exposed in some part of a room where you and others can admire them, this turns out to be a great energy enhancer and will surely make you feel great about it.
