Feng Shui at home for furniture placement
Feng Shui for furniture placement is becoming more and more popular in the Western world as people seek to balance their hectic and modern lives. Feng Shui involves placing objects such as furniture in a space to allow good energy to circulate freely. When decorating your home and placing furniture, you can follow some of the basic principles of Feng Shui to capture positive energy and distance negative energy.
In every room of your home, you can follow rules to make sure that furniture and other items are placed in prime locations. First of all, you must position the furniture according to your comfort and convenience, ensuring that no objects block the outer and inner doors (symbol of blocked opportunities). When organizing a room, keep busy areas open and clear.
The most common rule of Feng Shui, with regard to furniture placement, is to place the main rooms, such as bedroom furniture or desks, in command position. It's just the space facing the door and the side. Without knowing anything about Feng Shui, most people have an innate sense of the good energy of this position. At a meeting, for example, most people try to grab seats in this part of the room.
Placing important furniture in command position has many advantages. If you put your desk and chair in this position, your career prospects will improve and your productivity will increase. For those who work for themselves, the flow of quality energy can lead to increased phone calls from customers (and therefore business), more respect for the industry of your choice and chances for continued success. As long as your chair does not return to a window, the command position is one of the first things to take into account when applying the basic principles of Feng Shui to your own home.
Because sleep is a very important aspect of our lives and contributes to good health, placing your bed in a commanding position is crucial. Keep in mind that the worst place for the bed is right outside the door, feet facing it. The position of the coffin is labeled, because the dead tend to be moved first, placing your bed in such a way as to favor the wrong kind of energy. Also keep the head of the bed away from a window, as this would allow a personal energy (chi) to escape to the outside.
Feng Shui is applicable in all rooms of the house, including the kitchen. It can be difficult to move existing appliances to fit Feng Shui positions, but if you are thinking of rethinking your kitchen, keep in mind some of these tips:
The stove should be placed so that anyone using the stove does not have their back to the kitchen door. If you really can not rearrange the location of your stove, there is one trick: put a mirror behind the stove. A convenient way to deal with this problem, a mirror over the stove also allows the cook to see who enters the kitchen, without having to turn away from the food. The mirror also doubles, symbolically, the number of burners on the stove, which represents prosperity.
If you can, make sure the refrigerator and sink are not next to the stove. As water appliances, they should not be placed directly next to a fire appliance. As you can guess, the water extinguishes the flames, so separating the two will only serve the health, happiness and prosperity of our family.
In addition to using furniture placement to promote good chi in your home, it can also be used as a way to redirect the flow of chi. In family lounges and lounges, especially larger ones, use space by creating conversation spaces with furniture. This will help steer the flow of energy smoothly throughout the space, rather than letting it enter the front of the house and rush through and out the back. Think of this energy as the air that circulates in your home and cultivates good vibrations. Another way to encourage this type of energy flow is to install screens and dividers to avoid any direct path between doors and windows.
In homes where the living room and dining room blend into a single L-shaped space, the large area can be difficult to tame. Guests and family members feel less comfortable and have difficulty enjoying intimate conversations in such an environment. As mentioned above, the best way to handle such a situation is to group the furniture together to create smaller conversation areas, but you can also divide the area into two separate rooms to provide more privacy and comfort. in each space.
In a dining room, which usually has a double door entrance facing a window, it is quite difficult to keep the energy flowing. It is not surprising that these rooms are rarely used. What you can do to make guests feel more comfortable when using this room is to try to place each seat so that it faces the wall and protects the seated people.
Keeping spaces clear of clutter is also key to a good chi. Although comfortable spaces are necessary to maintain a good flow of energy, a home that is too padded will only foster a sense of chaos and confusion. Do not use too much furniture - just enough, without emptying the entire room of open spaces. The breathing room allows positive energy to flow through each space in the room, without facing obstacles. To prevent the chi from settling in the corners, you can place furniture in the corners of the room.
