One aim of feng shui is to create harmony between the house and the energy of the earth. In this article, you will be given tips on how to use feng shui on your bathroom in order to achieve a smooth flow of energy.
Feng shui helps create a smooth flow of energy in the entire house. It also helps maintain positive energy flowing and keeps negative energy away. Feng shui makes use of the different energy around us to attract luck, wealth, success and love. Everything in feng shui matters — the color, size, material and position of the rooms, doors, windows and even furniture. In a typical house, there are four major areas namely: kitchen, bathroom, bedroom and dining room. In this article, we will discuss how to manage the energy flow in the dining room or the house.
The bathroom should not also be located in the middle of the house because the house is associated with earth and earth destroys water (bathroom) by absorbing it. If it is already in the middle of the house, skylights or mirrors must be installed. In addition, bathroom should not be next to the kitchen, since kitchen represents fire and water destroys fire. If it is next to the kitchen, hang mirror outside the bathroom\’s door to deflect the negative energy.
The kitchen is the area where you can find two major elements fire (yang) and water (yin) hence it is important that there\’s balance between the two elements in the said part of the house. The kitchen must be airy, light and clutter-free. The surfaces in the kitchen must be smooth and must also have light shades. Be sure to keep the kitchen clean. Placing indoor plants in the kitchen or little shrubs outside the window of the kitchen will help in keeping the area cool and breezy. The stove must not also be placed near the kitchen door or opposite the kitchen door because it\’s the place where the energy is disturbed. It is best to position your stove diagonally across the door where the assembled energy is located.
Now you are aware how to feng shui your own kitchen. Try to remember the tips above and check the position of the things in your kitchen. If you noticed that some things are not properly placed or are located in areas that make the energy flow in the room difficult then transfer them. Notice how this can help improve the feeling in your kitchen
