Feng Shui Bed Rules

The main idea of ​​the decor created in accordance with the ancient Chinese teachings of Feng Shui is to arrange interior items so that the energy flows that circulate in space positively affect the development, well-being and success of the apartment owner:

• To feel protected, it is important to put the bed headboard against the wall or create support artificially: using a screen or wardrobe.
• It is not recommended to sleep opposite the mirror: the harmful energy that the sleeping person gets rid of should not come back to him through reflective surfaces.
• Feng Shui masters do not advise placing the bed under sharp beams or voluminous hanging chandeliers: they may unconsciously seem like a threat.
• It is undesirable to put a bed with the foot of the door to avoid the influx of negative energy. If there are no other options, it is better to keep the door closed at night.

How to arrange in the bedroom on the cardinal points?

Choosing the right place to sleep, many rely on the signals of their body and intuition, and someone closer to the recommendations of the ancient Indian teachings of Vastu. His supporters believe that the state of the sleeping person depends on the chosen direction, and they prescribe to sleep head east: so energy will recover faster.

Chinese philosophers believe that it is right to turn the head of the head to the north, especially for people prone to frequent diseases. There are several more recommendations:

• the northeast is suitable for anxious people, will help to cope with insomnia;
• the east will give the energy of the sun;
• the southeast will fix psychological problems, relieve nightmares:
• the south will improve its material situation and attract wealth;
• the northwest will develop leadership;
• the west will add love and passion to life;
• the southwest will help in the acquisition of wisdom and harmony.

Consider the arrangement of furniture in terms of religion. How to put a bed in a Christian way? Orthodoxy calls not to believe signs and to have a bed as convenient: the main thing is that the thoughts when falling asleep are clean. The Muslim religion of Islam prescribes to sleep with your head to the main shrine - Mecca, and forbids you to go to bed at the entrance.

What rules should be guided, and which should not be taken seriously, depends on one's well-being during sleep.

Door placement recommendations

In one, the experts nevertheless agree unanimously - the most correct way is to put the bed diagonally to the door. This is explained by the psychological point: this is how you can see incoming people and control the situation.

Do not put furniture on a straight line between the window and the door - the reason for this is drafts that will not add comfort during relaxation. You can arrange furniture next to the aisle - the main thing is that the sounds from the corridor do not interfere with sleep.

The farther the bed is from the door, the more comfortable the sleeping person feels.The arrangement of a berth in a niche creates an atmosphere of privacy and comfort.

How to put relative to the window?

Experts do not recommend placing the bed head to the window, especially if the glazing in the bedroom is panoramic: this is uncomfortable, because the body perceives this position of the body too open and dangerous in the most vulnerable period. A good option is to put a bed between two window openings.

If you put furniture for sleeping close to the window, then in winter you will have to put up with a hot battery and dry air, which will negatively affect your well-being. It is best to arrange the bed in the center of the bedroom, moving the head to the wall or placing the foot to the window.

This rule does not work in the summer when the radiators are off. In the warm season, you can rearrange the bedroom and, waking up, enjoy the morning rays.

Layout Tips for Different Shapes and Sizes of the Bedroom

The location of the bed largely depends on the size of the bedroom and its features.

Rectangular room. In an elongated room, the most advantageous option for installing a bed is across the room. With its help, a long bedroom will be divided into zones, and there will be more useful space.

In the photo there is a rectangular bedroom in the neoclassical style, where the sleeping area is located across the room.

If the window opening is on the side, then the bed should be placed along the wall with the headboard in the corner. An unusual option is the diagonal arrangement. Whether it is comfortable - everyone decides for himself.

Small. In a narrow or cramped bedroom, the question of the location of furniture is particularly acute. An excellent exit - a podium bed or a design with wardrobes. This design will save space and add coziness.

Children bedroom. To correctly put the bed in the children's bedroom, it is worth considering the arrangement of other furniture: a play area, a wardrobe and a table. There is a workplace near the window opening, and it is recommended to put the bed in a corner: in addition to the comfort and security of the child, this also increases the usable space.

Room with balcony. Furnishing a bedroom here is a great solution for those who barely wake up, like to go out to breathe fresh air or carefully ventilate the room before going to bed. But the loggia attached to the room is an even better idea from the point of view of ergonomics, because this is how additional space appears. This is especially true for small Khrushchev.

In the photo there is a wide double bed, which was enough space due to the expansion of the room due to the balcony.

With bay window. A non-standard window opening is very rarely used as a place to sleep: it is neither convenient nor practical. Traditionally, apartment owners turn the bay window into an additional recreation area or workplace.

Location options for different beds

When arranging a room, it is worth considering the convenience of households.

• It is correct to put a double bed so that both spouses can freely approach it.
• Single furniture for bachelors or teenagers takes up less space and has more layout options. It can be placed along the line of the wall, along the windowsill, diagonally.
• A bed with a high headboard makes it possible to equip a more comfortable sleeping place: even if the product is standing by the window, a soft back protects against drafts.

If there is a place for two beds in the bedroom, it is more correct to place them along opposite walls. And the crib should be equidistant from the entrance and the window: this way the baby will be protected from extraneous noise, working batteries and bright light.

How to put a bed - the most common mistakes

Each owner of the apartment independently decides how to equip his bedroom. But there are options that are often unacceptable:

• A bed in the middle of the room, not adjacent to anything. Most people feel in such a position as on an island in the middle of the ocean - it is unsafe.
• Among the bookshelves.From the outside it looks very comfortable, but books actively accumulate dust, and sleeping among them is simply unhealthy.
• Kicking the wall or closet. Sometimes - this is inevitable due to the modest size of the room, but if it is possible to put the bed differently, it is better to use it.

All people are different, and each has its own living conditions and ideas about comfort. In the end, it is only up to the owner of the bedroom to decide how to put the furniture: if in the morning he feels awake and full of energy, then the bed is located correctly.
