NEW AGE ARTIST:Feng shui is a system of aesthetics which was developed in China over three thousand years ago. By understanding the theories of feng shui, you can design a home which is balanced and which brings health and good fortune to its inhabitants. The most fundamental concept of feng shui is 'chi'. Chi is energy. It's the energy which can be found in everything: inside your body, inside and outside buildings, everywhere.
NEW AGE ARTIST1:By following the ideas of feng shui, you can create a good flow of chi in your home, which in turn can create a good flow of chi in your body. Here are some tips for using feng shui principles as you design the rooms in your home. The living room is where people come together to communicate and relax. It should be comfortable and inviting so inhabitants feel happy and at ease. Chairs and couches should face the door so people have a clear view of newly arriving family members and guests.
NEW AGE ARTIST2:Also, don't design the living room so it's centered around the television; a feng shui living room should encourage conversation. Colors of the living room should be warm and welcoming. Earth tones such as light yellow and beige will help create stability, nourishment and protection for all your relationships. You can also incorporate one bold, lively color. A bold color sparks conversation, which is great when you are hosting guests.
NEW AGE ARTIST3:The kitchen is the heart of the home; it is where food is prepared and where family members get together to chat. It should be designed so cooking can happen efficiently and with ease, so make sure that chairs, tables, and cabinets are placed in a way which allows for easy movement around the kitchen. The stove should be positioned so a person using it doesn't have their back facing a doorway. The chef needs to be able to focus and not be surprised. Avoid clutter; clutter interferes with the flow of chi in your home and brings its energy levels down.
NEW AGE ARTIST4:Counter tops should be clear of appliances, even the toaster. Have a place to put these things when they are not in use. Color is important. This is the room for cooking, so fire colors such as red, pink, or bright yellow work best. The bedroom should be planned so that it promotes sleep, relaxation, and love.
NEW AGE ARTIST5:Do not put too many pieces of furniture or extra items in the bedroom, as it is the place to relax and the place to escape from the world. It is not a place for work or living, so televisions and computers are more appropriate in other rooms. The bed is the most important piece of furniture, so carefully plan its location and colors. It is good for part of the bed to be touching the wall because this promotes stability and security, but the bed should be accessible from both sides so that chi can easily flow above and below. Finally, since the bedroom is a personal space, the colors should reflect your inner personality.
NEW AGE ARTIST6:But since the bedroom is the place of sleep, tranquil and relaxing colors are recommended. Bluish shades or light green colors are best. Or a soft version of your favorite color. Vibrant colors can be distracting in a room that is meant to be relaxing. Remember, everything in a feng shui home should be designed to promote a smooth flow of chi throughout the home.
NEW AGE ARTIST7:A smooth flow of chi inside your home will nourish and support a good flow of chi in your body... so you live a healthier, wealthier, happier fortunate life.
