Bedroom Feng Shui: Decorating Ideas and Suggestions

 

If you are thinking about creating a more welcoming bedroom that promotes peace, good sleep and beautiful personal moments, then you should definitely rely on the principles of feng shui!

This ancient Chinese tradition is based on the incorporation of balance, organization and healthy practices in your home, which can ultimately help you improve your daily lifestyle.

Bedroom Feng Shui: Create a serene environment 

Regardless of your decorating style, the goal is to create a serene bedroom. Feng shui focuses on how a place really makes you feel. A bedroom with good feng shui makes you feel comfortable, refreshing and supportive. Remember that your environment has a huge impact on your well-being, both physically and psychologically.

Do not place your bed next to a door

According to bedroom feng shui, when you lie on your bed, you should be able to see the door but not be in a direct line with it. You do not want your feet or head to be opposite to the door.

Choose a bed with a sturdy headboard 

Choose a bedroom set with a headboard that is not perforated, and make sure it fits snugly on the bed. According to feng shui experts, the headboard can help you connect with your partner. Avoid metal headboards, as their design often gives off a feeling of imprisonment. Always prefer upholstered beds and solid wood beds that are fitted with a headboard.

Do not place a TV in your bedroom 

The decision whether to include a TV in your bedroom depends on your personal lifestyle. However, if you have difficulty sleeping, it would be a good idea to just leave the TV out of your bedroom or hide it in a wooden, or fabric, cabinet. We live in an age where we receive radiation through electronic devices, so think of clever ways to hide your TV in your bedroom if you do not want to remove it completely, so as not to distract you from a restful sleep.

Choose the correct plants

Surrounded by nature is always a relaxing aspect of interior decor. However, not all plants adhere to the feng shui philosophy of bedroom decor. Prefer plants with soft, rounded edges, such as heart-shaped succulents, or snake plants, such as Sansevieria, which are known to emit more oxygen at night, making your sleep even more relaxing.

Invest in an “Organic Bed”

 

Always choose organic cotton bedding and anatomical mattresses. A “biological bed” is the best choice for a bedroom that complies with the principles of feng shui, as the process and materials of production of an object are intertwined with the energy it exudes. Experts therefore suggest that you should always buy the least toxic and synthetic materials, produced in the most environmentally friendly way.

In terms of colors, white almost monopolizes when it comes to beds, as it works like a blank canvas that is ready to receive different decorative touches, such as pillows. However, when it comes to bedding, select pink shades if you want to approach a new partner or red shades if you want to increase the passion between you and your loved one.

Incorporate Your Favorite Colors

Most people believe that a neutral color palette is the key to a successful bedroom decor. However, according to experts, you should always decorate with shades that resonate with your character. Neutral colors tend to be more natural and represent the earth, i.e. support stability and care. So if these aspects appeal to you, then neutral colors are a fantastic choice. In any case, it is always a matter of “taste” and personal needs.

Aim for balance 

If you want to attract a partner, or you are already in a relationship, the principle of balance is very important in a bedroom. Having space on both sides of the bed and the placement of bedside tables are just a few examples. The goal is to create enough space for you and your partner and let its balance offer you more freedom.

Lighting is the key

Light brings clarity, radiance and “life” to many areas of our house. Proper lighting is key in feng shui, especially if one is having depressed feelings. Candles can offer a new level of intimacy that can not be achieved with other traditional lighting options.
