The 氣 Qi, the life-giving energy in Feng shui, is crucial for a healthier life. To ensure this, it's essential to allow the Qi to flow freely, with as little or no obstruction as possible. The following tips, when followed, can significantly improve your well-being and energy flow.
Clutter, if it obstructs the movement of the occupants in the house, can do similar things to the Qi. Even for those who don't believe in the chi the way Feng shui believers do, clutter poses dangers that could lead to serious issues in the home.
The entrances to the home, like main doorways, screens, and gates, must be free and clear. Regularly cleaning the screens and keeping the entranceways free from shoes, slippers, and dirt is essential. The Qi, which rides with the wind into the house, must be clean to positively impact your living environment.
The Qi rests in the water. So it is reasonable to advise having an open fixture in the house that holds it, like fish tanks and water fountains. If the Qi that gets into the home does not find water from which it can stay, it will only continue riding and be dispersed by the wind. When positioned in a favourable location, water fountains could attract good energy and be vehicles that could provide you with the things you want out of life. Aquariums also do the same, though when placed in an unfavourable direction, they could work the opposite way, resulting in problems and discord. Try the age-old observation practice when you want a fish tank in your house but cannot consult a Feng shui expert. If you find that the luck you are getting is not too favourable, adjust and reposition the fish tank or the water fountain every four months or so until you get the desired results. However, I do not advise you to do this way.
Children should not be allowed to sleep on mattresses on the floor if possible. Sleeping on beds with spaces beneath where the air could freely circulate and opening those windows will always be healthier. Do not worry too much about the dust coming whenever you can endure it. Stale air inside the bedroom also produces a stagnant Qi that translates into stagnant energy. It will be far more than your time's worth to sweep the room of dust than to keep stagnant energy locked inside your bedroom.
Never have double beds. In most cases, the child sleeping on the lower deck is sicklier than the one on top. This is because the child sleeping above will always have a better and fresher amount of fresh air, while the one sleeping below gets stale air. If a child falls ill, try transferring the child to another bedroom.
Television inside the bedroom should be avoided if it can't, and the TV should be covered with materials made of plastic, not cloth. Never face water and fire-related fixtures opposite each other for typical cases. For example, a sink should never be placed opposite a stove. They are ruled by opposing elements, believed to contribute to the discord that the household members could suffer. However, exceptional cases depend on the direction of the stove.
By now, you would have noticed that most Feng shui practices are purely common sense. That is what Feng shui is. Common sense. However, being involved in it will give you a deeper understanding of why things happen the way they do. Often, things and ideas you already know only need to be verbalised to recognize better. Though many feng shui principles are deeply rooted, it would take years of studying with experts without consulting them.
