Feng Shui Warning: The Size Of Your Bed Can Hurt Your Love Life!
According to National Geographics, "Feng Shui is an ancient Chinese art of arranging buildings, objects, and space in an environment to achieve harmony and balance in a way that will bring peace and prosperity." With these words, we could conclude that it is only by placing the right objects in the right places that we could be able to balance the energy forces that affect us. However, what we are probably missing is the fact that we cannot balance these energies alone by orderly positioning things. As a matter of fact, everything around us impacts our lifestyle, so we must make sure that energy forces are able to flow freely and non-stop by also considering the colors, shapes, and sizes of the objects we surround ourselves with!
Some couples who are married or who are not married but live together wonder why their connection with their partners is falling apart despite making sure that their bedrooms are in the correct feng shui order. What they do not know is that the culprit behind this has been under their noses for a long time; the size of their bed is what’s hurting their love life. Therefore, if you are living with your significant other or if you are planning to settle together, make sure to buy the right bed size for the both of you!
Before you complain about this feng shui belief being a hassle to you, learn why getting the wrong size of bed could hurt or—worse—destroy your love life.
On Why the Size of Your Bed Matters
Even though you are still searching for love, you must make sure that your intentions of finding and settling in a happy relationship can be seen by the universe. One way is to reflect your intentions by getting a bed size suitable for couples. The majority of people are most likely thinking," Oh, I can change my bed when I already have a partner." This mindset is probably the reason they have trouble finding the right one! To attract the things you want, you must let the universe know by gradually attracting energies the moment you wish to have them.
For example, you do not just study on the day of the exam to pass it; you must work for it for what could take weeks. Thus, consider hitting the reset button now and changing to a new bed!
Which Size is the Right One?
The size of bed that is best for your love life is queen-size. A queen-size bed measures about 153 centimeters by 203 centimeters in the metric system and 5'0'' by 6'8’’ using the imperial measurement. Getting this size for your mattress will comfortably fit two people. It is neither too small nor too big; it is perfect.
Why Other Sizes Are Not Recommended
King-Size Bed
King-sized beds are usually the size you will find inside any master’s bedroom. However, feng shui warns us that using this might hurt or break our relationships. Here are a couple of reasons why:
The vastness of a king-sized bed makes you and your partner too comfortable, forgetting that you are not cuddling as much as needed to keep the love sparkling. There is a tendency for you and your partner to sleep with your backs against each other. Even though both of you want to cuddle, it would not be very comfortable to do so since most king-sized beds have a set of two box springs in the middle. It is physically uncomfortable.
With this kind of bed, it is very possible that you will have less communication with your significant other. Arguments are normal, but admit it: pride is so hard to swallow. The width of the bed makes it harder for one of the couple to take the initiative to apologize whenever there is a misunderstanding. The larger the bed, the farther you are from your partner when both of you are upset. It will get easier for both of you to ignore one another, thus discouraging conversation. However, when your bed allows you to be nearer to your partner, it will be harder for the two of you to sleep without talking it out. Consequently, a smaller size will turn out to be better for your relationship.
It is believed in feng shui that king-sized beds are so big that they can fit three people. Opting to have this bed would attract third parties into your relationship, which would lead to divorce. Avoid this from happening by not getting a bed mattress in this size.
Twin-Size Bed
A twin-size bed fits children but not adults. It is too small for partners, making them sleep so close to each other. Although it is a good thing to be close to your partner, having no space can also lead to feeling suffocated in your relationship. It can also lead to overdependence on your partner, which is not ideal for your own growth.
The Thickness of Your Bed
The thickness of your bed will depend on the height that you want it to achieve. Avoid getting a very thick mattress if your bed frame is already high. A low-rise bed has become a trend; if you have one, choose a very thick mattress to add to its height. Having a very low bed will literally hurt your back! Your bed must be at the right level so that you can easily sit down and stand up.
Other Things to Consider
Bed sizes do affect your love life, so if you already have the right size, that does not mean your bedroom is already good for your love life. There are a lot more things to consider to avoid wrecking the love you have worked so hard for. These are just a few from the list:
- Correct bed position that allows you to be in command.
- Decorate in pairs to support your love life.
- Plan ways to always keep your bedroom uncluttered.
- The right color to elevate romance.
