The bedroom should be a place of rest, romance, and relaxationand nothing else.
Before getting started, I recommend aquick declutteringandenergy clearingto bust through any negativity in the air.
Consider burning sage, palo santo, or cedar tocleanse the space of negative energy.
Now, let’s go over the most effective feng shui tweaks for your bedroom.
A general rule of thumb is to opt for skin tones or muted shades you’d find in nature.
Here are a few:
One word of caution: Don’t overdo it on the peach!
Consider instead using peach as an accent tone on pillows, throws, and small objects.
Crisp white walls should also be avoided because at night they can become too activating.
Stark white is a color of the metal element, which is mentally stimulating and not conducive to rest.
Speaking of beds, they should always have a headboard.
In feng shui, headboards provide a feeling of support in life.
When choosing a headboard, go for one that has soft edges whenever possible.
Instead, opt for ones that are made of fabric, as they provide a soft, inviting feel.
Leave a little extra room in your dresser and nightstand, and present everything in pairs.
So why not make your bedroom one completely tech-free sanctuary?
(This may seem like common sense, but it’s something a lot of us forget about!)
Instead, hang a light, flowing tapestry with an inviting pattern.
Nightstands with sharp corners
Nightstands should be sturdy but not overpowering or threatening.
They should be discreet, ideally rounded, and lower and away from the sleepers' heads.
You don’t want anything sharp pointed at your face as you’re sleeping!
Water
Keeping water features in the bedroom is a major feng shui taboo.
No fountains and no pictures or paintings of boats on the ocean, rivers, harbors.
