Feng Shui for Bedroom (An Overview)

1. Feng Shui is about using the environment to improve your life.

2. The bedroom is the ideal place – you spend at least 8 hours a day in rest.

3. This is the ideal opportunity to get the improvements from the environment.

4. What do you need? With a good sleep, your body is rested and you are prepared for the next day.

5. However, if you do not have a good sleep, you do not wake up refreshed – changes in your mood, not able to go through the day smoothly, lack of good sleep can affect your health and your relationships.

6. Lighting. The lighting in the bedroom has to fit a number of different requirements. Hence, it is better that there is a dimmer so that this can be carried out.

7. Some Rules for the application of Feng Shui – Do’s and Don’ts

8. Feng Shui is about balance. You should not go for very dark colours – black (too yin) or too bright - like red (too yang). The amount of decoration should be reasonable. It is not going to be a showroom. It is your private room.

In Feng Shui, one room has one purpose.

The bedroom is meant for sleeping.

To discourage these activities

• The bedroom is not to be used as a place for work or exercise. These activities are considered yang or active and is not compatible to a yin environment.
• Ideally, there should be no TV in the bedroom but it is now considered an essential.
• Secondly, I have seen this practise carried in a number of bedroom where the ashes of a relative (usually mother) or their favourite pet is in the bedroom. This is too Yin for the bedroom and the casket with the ashes should be put in the appropriate location outside the property.
