Basic Feng Shui principles for homes, health, wealth, happiness, and relationships.

1. Front Door

  • The front door should be well-maintained, welcoming, and easily accessible. It should be able to open fully without obstruction so positive energy (chi) can enter your home. Keep the area around the front door well-lit and clutter-free.

2. Kitchen

  • The kitchen is considered the heart of the home in Feng Shui. Keep it clean, organized, and well-lit to encourage health and abundance. Avoid placing the stove directly opposite the sink or refrigerator, as this can create conflicting energies.

3. Bed Placement

  • Position your bed so that it has a solid wall behind it for support and a clear view of the door (without being directly in line with it). Avoid placing the bed under a window or exposed beams because the excess energy can cause sleep disruption.

4. Colors

  • Choose colors mindfully to create the desired atmosphere in each room. Use the Bagua map to determine which colors are best suited for each area of your home based on their corresponding elements and life aspects.

5. Art and Décor

  • Display artwork and decor that uplift and inspire you. Choose pieces that evoke positive emotions and reflect your personal style. Avoid displaying artwork depicting negative or stagnant themes.

6. Mirrors

  • Use mirrors strategically to enhance energy flow and expand space. Place mirrors to reflect beautiful views, natural light, or positive energy into your home. Avoid placing mirrors directly facing the bed or reflecting clutter.

7. Bathroom

  • Keep your bathroom clean, well-lit, and properly ventilated to prevent the accumulation of stagnant energy. Keep toilet lids closed when not in use to prevent chi from being flushed away.

8. Home Office

  • Create a supportive environment in your home office by positioning your desk to have a clear view of the door and incorporating elements of inspiration and productivity. Keep the space clutter-free and well-organized to promote focus and efficiency.

9. Plants

  • Introduce plants to purify the air, add vitality, and connect with nature. 

10. Personal Space

  • Dedicate a space in your home for quiet reflection, meditation, or personal hobbies. This space should feel nurturing and supportive, allowing you to recharge and reconnect with yourself.
