According to bedroom Feng Shui, properly arranging the space can enhance sleep quality, boost positive energy, and attract good fortune. On the other hand, improper arrangement may obstruct the flow of energy, discrupting balance in life. So, how can you set up a bedroom according to Feng Shui principles? Let’s explore with URHOUSE in the following content! 

Bedroom location

Do not place the bedroom door directly facing the main door

In Feng Shui, the main door is the passage for energy flow, welcoming both positive and negative energies into the house. If the bedroom door is directly aligned with the main door, the energy will flow straight into the room, disrupting balance, reducing privacy, and directly affecting the homeowner’s sleep quality. 

To remedy this situation, you can apply the following solutions:

• Place a partition or curtain: To reduce the direct impact of airflow from the main door into the bedroom.
• Use a folding screen or decorative shelf: To create a gentle separation between the two spaces.
• Adjust the bed direction: Avoid placing the bed in line with the bedroom door to minimize negative effects on health and well-being.

Do not place two bedroom doors directly facing each other

Placing two bedroom doors directly facing each other, also known as “door-to-door”, is considered a Feng Shui taboo. This phenomenon not only occurs between the main door and secondary doors but can also appear between rooms within the same house. Since ancient times, it has been believed that “windows are the eyes, and the main door is the mouth of a house. When doors are aligned in straight line, the energy flow moves too quickly, potentially causing instability within the family. 

Therefore, when designing a house, homeowners should consider adjusting the door positions appropriately to create balance and bring warmth and harmony to the family.

Bed direction and placement in bedroom feng shui

The bed direction follows the principle of “auspicious position, auspicious direction”. This means placing it in a favorable lacation and orienting it towards a beneficial direction based on the homeowner’s age. It is essential to avoid the folowing situations: 

• Avoid placing the bed facing a chimney. as in bedroom feng shui, this can negatively affect reproductive health. 
• Do not place the bed directly facing the bathroom, especially in townhouses. Bathrooms contain a lot of impure energy, which can affect the air quality in the bedroom, create, discomfort, and reduce positive energy.
