Arrange Bedroom Energy

Arrange your bedroom furniture to allow energy to flow through the room.


The placement and arrangement of your furniture and accessories can alter the energy, or chi, in your bedroom according to the ancient practice of feng shui, which is the centuries-old Chinese art of furniture arrangement. Follow a few simple guidelines to allow the energy in your bedroom to flow in a positive manner, which is said to increase the positive energy in various areas of your life, including health, wealth and love.


Instructions


1. Remove clutter and unnecessary items from your bedroom, including things that remind you of work. Move your computer, exercise equipment and storage items to another room in your home if possible. Designate a space for everything and keep it there so you don't see clutter in the room, including papers and laundry.


2. Position your bed against a solid wall where you have a clear view of the door, but not directly in front of the door. This position is also called a king's position. Avoid placing the bed in front of a window or against a wall that has a bathroom on the other side if possible, as the running water can drain energy. Use a solid headboard if possible.


3. Place two nightstands or small tables on either side of the bed. They don't have to match exactly, though they should be of similar size and style to create balance and harmony. Each table should hold a lamp that is also similar to, or the same as, the lamp on the opposite side of the bed.


4. Cover your mirror at night, especially if it faces the bed, if you aren't willing to remove it.








5. Include softness in the room, such as a soft rug, luxurious linens, and light and airy window treatments that allow natural sunlight into the room during the day.


6. Accessorize the room with earth elements, such as candles and a pair of flowers in a crystal vase. Include images of things or people that make you feel at ease, such as loved ones. Opt for photos of pairs and couples if you want to attract a partner into your life, or create positive energy between you and your partner.
