Design Your Own Feng Shui Bedroom

Whether you are looking for a way to add physical and mental energy to your life or to have peaceful and relaxed surroundings, using the ancient art of feng shui to accomplish either one can be done. If it is energy or relaxation there are natural ways to accomplish this. Using a few pointers will allow you to have the feng shui bedroom to fit the mood you want to set.

Feng Shui Bedroom Tip #1

Before you do anything to change your bedroom, figure out what mood you are trying to set. Do you want your own cozy haven to relax in at the end of a busy day? A bedroom that is conducive to rest and sleep or a room charged with physical energy can be yours. It all depends on what you have in mind for your bedroom.

When making up your mind on which changes would be appropriate to make your room into a feng shui bedroom, you need to decide exactly what the room needs and what you need yourself. These two atmospheres are polar opposites of one another and you don’t want to add vibrancy and spice to a room where you just want to get a good night’s sleep and wake up feeling refreshed. Nor do you want to create a relaxing, soothing atmosphere in a room where you want more sexual passion and energy to happen.

Feng Shui Bedroom Tip 2

The next step you want to take when creating a feng shui bedroom is to de-clutter the room completely. The bedroom is not an exercise room, its not a laundry room, its not an office. Whether you want the room to be peaceful and relaxing or you want some energy in this room, clutter is going to keep you from achieving either one.

Take a look at any picture of any decorating magazine, and notice their rooms. How many are cluttered with all these excessive things? Obviously the answer is none of them.

Feng Shui Bedroom Tip #3

Color is very important in all aspects of feng shui and the same applies to the bedroom. Dark, warm colors will be relaxing and bold, bright colors will attract energy.

Depending on your decision about what kind of atmosphere you want to create in your bedroom, you might want to choose a soothing color like dark green or brown to relax you or you might prefer purple or red tones to create tension and energy. Don’t go overboard once you have made your decision. Don’t paint every single wall red and match the bedding, ornaments and furniture. There is nothing so depressing or draining than feeling overwhelmed by one single color when you enter a room. You might want to use one main color and have accents instead, or combine two or three relaxing or energizing colors.

If you can apply these three easy tips, you will be able to create a true feng shui bedroom which will either introduce some energy and spice into your life or soothe and calm you, promoting a good night’s sleep.
