Eight Feng Shui Bedroom Tips - Location of the Bed

The bed is where the person rests after a busy day. The location of the bed within the bedroom is as important as the bed itself.

1. Position the bed against wall:

The head of the bed should be located next to the wall with the headboard positioned against the wall. It is not correct for the bed to be "floating" in the middle of the room. Secondly, try not to position the head of the bed next to a window.

2. Away from Door:

In a bedroom, there is usually at least one "natural" position for the bed to be located. This is usually the most suitable place but of course, there are exceptions. The bed should not be placed with the person's feet pointing to the door. In this position, there is just too much energy "hitting" the sleeping body. This can make sleep uncomfortable.

3. Space on both sides of the bed:

Make sure there is space on both sides of the bed, anybody can get on the bed from either side. This essentially is for the energy to flow around the body. Hence the placement of bedside cabinets on both side of the bed to maintain this space. Also, try avoid placing the long side of the bed is against the wall.

4. Check the position of the WC(water closet or toilet):

Make sure that the WC is not on the other side of the wall of the bed. Also, it is not in the room above or below the bedroom. When the WC flushes the water, it is removing energy from the house and also, disrupting the equilibrium of the energy. Therefore, it is best not to have the WC too near the bed.

5. Check the position of the Cooker or the Stove:

The cooker produces heat for the cooking. It disrupts the energy in the home. Therefore, make sure that the cooker is not on the other side of the wall from the bed, or the cooker is above or below the bed.

6. Windows, air conditioners or radiators:

Avoid placing the bed near or next to these items. They affect the flow of energy in the room. Just position the bed some distance from them when you can.

7. Flat and even ceilings:

Position the bed where the ceiling is flat and even. Avoid places where there are beams or protruding coving (for lighting). This alters the energy flow.

8. Overhanging cupboards:

Do avoid fitting cupboard above the head position of the bed. It is quite commonly done as a convenient storage location. As stated previously, it affects the energy flow and hence, the quality of sleep.

Conclusion: The bed is the place for the person to rest. Why not, get the bed in the most suitable location for the best possible environment for the person to rest. This is the place for the body to prepare for the next day.

Feng shui is a Chinese system of land management which developed with rise of Chinese civilisation, more than 40 centuries ago. It is about using the natural energies in the living environment (homes, buildings, towns and cities). This is to make the living space conducive for people to have the appropriate behaviours to attain better health, wealth and happiness.
