By following the principles of Feng Shui, you will create a pleasant and comfortable space in your bedroom, where you will be able to sleep and rest well. This ancient Chinese philosophy teaches us how individuals are in harmony with their surrounding environment.
1. The proportions of the furniture should match the size of your bedroom
If you have problems sleeping in your bedroom, one of the reasons may be disproportionate furniture that does not fit well into the space. This creates a feeling of discomfort and anxiety. All furniture items such as bed, bedside tables and lamps should be carefully selected and correspond in size to each other and to the room. The symmetrical design also adds harmony to the space and is essential in bedrooms because it helps our minds relax and calm down.
2. Do not place the bed in front of the door
Never place the bed directly in front of a door. This will create a feeling of insecurity which will prevent you from relaxing well in the room. It is better to place it deeper in the room, on a diagonal line with the door.
3. Avoid mirrors
Seeing your reflection from bed is not the best idea according to Feng Shui. It is best to place it in corners, where you will not see yourself while in bed, or even inside closets.
4. Use a soothing color scheme
Save the vibrant colors for other rooms, and bedrooms should be decorated in soothing, soothing colors such as pastels, off-white, earth tones, blue or green. These colors help relax the body and mind, setting your mood in a comfortable position.
5. Pay attention to lighting
Access to natural light is crucial in the bedroom, as windows allow the sun’s energy into the room. Make sure you have heavy curtains or curtains to prevent sunlight from waking you up in the morning. Windows also provide access to fresh air, and opening the door during the night creates a draft of air and therefore energy. Regarding electric lighting, make sure to choose bulbs that provide soft, soothing light.
6. Keep your bedroom clean and tidy
A clean, organized space within your bedroom helps create circulation of vital energy according to Feng Shui. Dust prevents energy from flowing freely throughout the room and makes you feel uncomfortable and tired. Make sure to get rid of all broken and unnecessary things, the same energy principle applies to them.
