Effective Feng Shui bedroom design isn’t just reserved for the expert designers. Here are some suggestions on how to balance your chi and preserve the tranquility in your bedroom.
Lighting
The light from ordinary fluorescent lighting is too harsh. Install dimmers so you can control the intensity. Candles may be used to add ambience and atmosphere. Make sure there is nothing blocking the windows so sunshine and chi can get in. During the evenings however, the curtains should be closed down.
Fresh Air
Adding an air purifier will consistently produce fresh air and prevent staleness. Plants can perform the same function; however Feng Shui principles state that only small plants should be used.
Decors
Always display figurines and collectibles in pairs. A solitary figure is not conducive to good chi. Displaying items in pairs is particularly good for those who are seeking romance. Display artwork, paintings and pictures that bring happy memories and infuse good cheer.
Colors
No aspect of Feng Shui bedroom design will be complete without discussing colors. Light hues like yellow, violet, blue, white and green work best. Light colors make the room seem spacious. Other colors you can use are light red, orange and bits of gray.
Positioning the Bed
The ideal bed position is at a diagonal at the room’s opposite end from the door. Make certain the bed can be reached at either side. Do not position the bed against the wall. This is symbolic of a closed opportunity or relationship.
Don’t put the bed opposite the door. The feet should not be opposite the door either. Beams over the bed are also not recommended. If this cannot be avoided, place a fabric over the beam.
Other Tips
The bedroom should be used for sleeping and resting. Do not let it double as a TV room or study room. If space limitations do not allow it, keep them in another part of the room away from the bed.
Don’t use the space below the bed for storage. Allow air to flow under the bed. This will generate good chi and lead to good sleep. Put the mirrors next to the bed, not opposite it. Soft drapes are also recommended.
One of the things you have to remember with Feng Shui bedroom design is that arched or octagonal windows work best. Also, the lampshades can be placed close to the bed, but make sure the light is subdued.
