Five Steps To A Perfect Feng Shui Bedroom

Feng Shui considers your bedroom, and especially your bed, to be the most important place in your home.

It’s where you live your innermost life – resting, dreaming, romancing.

But the Master Bedroom often gets shortchanged, becoming an afterthought or a haven for clutter because it’s in the back of your home or otherwise “out of sight.”

A bedroom with good Feng Shui.
A bedroom with good Feng Shui.

Here are five steps you can take right away to create a bedroom with great Feng Shui, a room that serves your deepest needs.

Step 1. Ask yourself, “What is the purpose of my Master Bedroom?” This may seem like a strange question to be asking in your bedroom, but think about it: do you use it solely for sleeping and relaxing, or has it taken on the characteristics of some other activity – as an office, exercise area or playroom, perhaps?

The Primary Purpose of your bedroom is always rest, relaxation and rejuvenation.  Anything that doesn’t serve this purpose should be eliminated first!

Step 2. Arrange your bed in the Feng Shui Command Position, placing it where you can easily see the door.

Step 3. Declutter! When you clear the clutter from your bedroom you eliminate the psychic noise that comes with disorderly stuff and give yourself the gift of a calming environment.

Don’t forget to clear out and organize things in your closets and bureau drawers; remove books and kids’ stuff to the greatest extent possible.

Step 4. Assess your art and accessories. A bedroom needs particularly soothing and uplifting images, so surround yourself with art that makes you feel great.  Mirrors create stress in your bedroom; if you’re having a hard time relaxing, move them to another spot in your home.

A TV in the bedroom also disturbs the peace, bringing unwelcome electromagnetic energy into your sanctuary. The best option is to remove it altogether, but if this is impossible cover it up whenever it’s off.

Step 5. Make it personal! Set up warm lighting, perhaps a small music system, and bring in sensuous colors and luxurious textures. If you’re sharing this space with a partner, make sure you each have space for your personality.

Taking these five steps to a good Feng Shui bedroom enhances your love life, helps you stay in balance, and keeps good Chi energy flowing in the rest of your life.

    Very good ideas. I love the question “what is the purpose of my master bedroom”?. This is a question we should ask ourselves about every room in the house, and then keep only those things in the room that support the purpose.
    If we asked ourselves this question more often, we would eliminate much of the clutter we have in our spaces!
    Love your postings. Always so educational!

      Hi Cindy,

      Thanks so much for the comment — I’m really glad you liked that question, especially. You’re right — really we DO need to be asking ourselves about the purpose of every room in our homes (and offices!). Once we’ve decided what the room is about, everything else can fall into place so much more easily.

    Hi Ann!

    I just found your website and I love it. I am moving into my first apartment and I just realized that my bedroom door is right in the spot of attraction/relationships and self esteem. What can I do to nurture these when a door is smack in the middle?

      Hi Samantha, thanks for stopping by the blog. It sounds like your door might be in the perfect spot for “welcoming in” a healthy relationship and self-esteem. I suggest painting it a beautiful, rich and sensuous color to attract the love you desire!

    I just discovered your site an am really enjoying it!  There’s so much great info here, and some info I haven’t found anywhere else.  In another article you said a metal bed is not good feng shui, which makes sense. However, I can’t change out my bed.  It’s a beautiful black metal frame with lots of curvy scrolls (headboard and footboard), and it has a simple black metal canopy. I had always wanted this bed and have really enjoyed having it. I use blue sheets and comforter. But what can I do to soften the metal effect and make it nicer, feng shui-wise? (BTW my marriage intimacy is dead – from my side, not his.) I hope you can offer me some simple cures for this! Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge here!!
