Feng Shui Tips For Important Areas

The Bedroom:
Sleep with the headboard or pillow side of bed against a solid wall.
Sleep away from the entrance door to the room, not aligned with it directly.
Avoid sleeping under exposed beams; use a canopy bed or create a false ceiling.
Do not sleep under/near low windows.
Cover big mirrors in the bedroom for sounder sleep.
Avoid sleeping against a wall with electronics on the other side of the wall.
Avoid sleeping against a wall with kitchen appliances directly on the other side.

The Office:
In a commercial setting, place your desk so you have a direct or side view of the door.
Do not sit directly aligned with the door.
Sit in between overhead beams or unfinished ceilings that have air ducts or plumbing overhead.
If the room is windowless, have pictures of landscapes to give depth to the space.
If the room is windowless, have sufficient full spectrum lighting.
Keep the room relatively organized and free of clutter.
If the room is small with low ceilings, place the pictures higher on the wall to give the illusion of more space.
If the ceilings are too high, place pictures on the wall lower so that it drops the line of sight down.
If a structural pillar/column protrudes in your office, try to place something in front of the corner edge of the column to soften it, such as a plant. Making file cabinets flush with the corner edge can also help remove the "poison arrow" affect.
Any bad views from a window should be blocked with plants, a partition screen or frosted windows.

Entrance:
Maintain a bright, cheerful entrance. If it is dark, then you may need to keep a light on or do some remodeling to add a window or skylight.
If there is a staircase directly aligned with the entrance, flank the stairs with a water fountain or a live plant to help slow down the direct path of chi.
If there is a front door aligned directly with a back door, add a live plant or water feature in between those two points.
If there is a direct view of the kitchen when entering, visually block it.
If there is a direct view of a bathroom when entering, keep the door closed.
If there is a wall very close to the entrance, that feels halting, cover it with a mirror to create the visual illusion of more space.
