Feng Shui is an ancient Chinese art of living followed for centuries to enable happiness, harmony, and peace inside a home. According to Feng Shui, a bedroom is the most important place in a home. “Feng” means wind and “Shui” means water in Chinese. The philosophy of Feng Shui revolves around the free flow of energy or life in your space. The concept promotes incorporating positive energy into your life and deflecting negative energy. Adapting Feng Shui in the bedroom will help to enhance your environment, utilise your space, and bring balance to your life, creating a happy space where you can relax and rest without interruptions or negative thoughts.

Let’s dive into the Feng Shui way of arranging a bedroom for a better living. 

  1. Bed positioning
    According to Feng Shui, the bed should be placed in a ‘commanding position’. This means that when you are in bed, you must be able to see the door without the door being in the direct line of the bed. The idea behind this is to face the opportunities that come your way, eliminating the surprise factor thus giving you an upper hand in what’s coming to your life. The best way to place your bed in your bedroom is diagonal. The right bed positioning helps in boosting relaxation and harmony.
    The beds should always have a strong and solid headboard. Although the idea is to offer maximum comfort when you sit up, in feng shui terms it also means bringing stability to your life.  
  2. Choosing the right colours
    Feng Shui suggests soothing or pastel shades on walls to bring peace and sensuality into the bedroom. The small objects can have peach or pink shades in the right amount. Make sure not to overdo peaches as it can attract more romantic partners into your bedroom. Bringing in bold colours like red, blue, and green can enhance passion, vitality, and rejuvenation in your bedroom. 
  3. Decluttering
    To start with, clear the clutter under your bed. According to Feng Shui, keeping unwanted things under your bed can negatively affect your health and sleep quality. It is an unwanted block in your way of free-flowing energy. It is also not recommended to include storage under your bed and if you do so too, make sure to limit it to linens, blankets, and pillows.
  4. Symmetry
    By creating symmetry inside your bedroom you are bringing balance to your life. Feng Shui encourages keeping all bedroom accessories in pairs. It is highly recommended to keep bedside tables on either side of the bed. This concept is based on the idea of creating equal space and room for both parties in a relationship. 
  5. Invest in a Mattress
    Feng Shui promotes living in harmony with everyone. The size of the mattress depicts your willingness to share your space with people. If you are planning to start a family or invite a partner over, make sure the bedroom has enough space for both of you. If your room is big enough like the spacious rooms in Advaitha Aksha, one of the top-notch luxury flats in Koramangala, it is suggested to invest in king-sized mattresses to achieve harmony and serenity in the bedroom and life. 
  6. Limit Electronic devices and mirrors
    Feng Shui believes that mirrors can drive away positive energy in the opposite direction. Minimize the number of mirrors, preferably to zero, inside the bedroom. However, if unavoidable, make sure the mirrors are not kept in line with the bed. 

Similarly, electronic items are a big no to a bedroom. The blue light can disrupt your sleep. Try to avoid electronic gadgets like television, computers, and smartphones in the bedroom. Although good for entertainment, these won’t align with your circadian rhythm. 
A home is all about comfort, serenity, and relaxation. Feng Shui is a method to promote these feelings to enhance your living standards. A clean and uncluttered room is a sign of free life with happy thoughts. Make your rooms Feng Shui-friendly and invite positive energy effortlessly.
