Feng Shui Tips To Get Creative!

interior ideas for home

One of the first interior ideas for home is to do vacuum cleaning and dusting. The energy that is created by clutter blocks the Feng Shui energy flow, thus draining energy from you. De-clutter and clear up your home to make it spick and span.

Clean your home workstation. Keep the main desk surface always clean. Keep only the stationery needed on a daily basis in close proximity. Remove dust and disinfect the surfaces thoroughly.

Doors are important in Feng Shui as they work as portals for energy. Allow energy to flow freely and make sure that doors can open and close at least 90 degrees. Remove any obstacles such as unwanted furniture or clutter that block doorways. Don’t forget to keep your windows clean as they bring both sunlight and opportunity.

Create an inspirational space. Your space should inspire! It can be through anything, be it a painting from your favourite artist or photos from a vacation you took solo or with friends or family. Set up your music collection in the living room for easy listening. You can even create vision boards as a visualisation technique to set your goals and dreams. Make sure your home includes the things that spark creativity.

Set the tone with colour. Colour is considered powerful and has played a vital role in Feng Shui since decades. Make use of appropriate colour choices to make the most of your living space. The use of colour in Feng Shui relates to the five elements, with colours that inspire different moods:

Wood: Uplifting greens and browns

Fire: Daring reds, yellows and oranges

Earth: Grounding pale yellow and light brown

Metal: Whites and greys

Water: Blues and black

Fragrances are a powerful part of Feng Shui as they promote harmony and balance. You can burn some sage and incense to cleanse the living space.

Reiki and Mental Health

With people spending months hunkered down in their homes due to the lockdown extensions to combat COVID, this could take a collective toll on their mental health. This is why it would be a good idea to leverage the power of Reiki.

To practice Reiki at the home, perform each hand positions given below for about 20 minutes, focusing on each for about 2 minutes.

Hand Position 1: Place your hands together in a prayer position in the middle of your chest, just below your chin. Focus your attention on your inhalation and exhalation in this position.

Hand Position 2: Gently place both hands on top of the head while inhaling deep and relaxed breaths. Focus your attention on your hands on the top of your head.

Hand Position 3: Gently place both hands over your eyes while inhaling deep and relaxed breaths. Focus your attention on your hands over your eyes.

Hand Position 4: Gently place your right hand over your throat and the left hand over your heart while continuing the inhalation. Focus your attention on your throat and heart.

Hand Position 5: Gently place your hands just below the chest line with continued inhalation. The middle fingers should touch each other. Focus your attention on the area under your chest.

Hand Position 6: Move your hands one hand-width down from your chest line, gently placing them over the upper stomach and in the solar plexus area without stopping the inhalation practice. Focus your attention on this area of the body now.

Hand Position 7: Place your hands over the stomach and navel area and focus on these areas next while inhaling deeply.

Hand Position 8: Gently place both hands on the shoulder muscles and focus on these areas while inhaling.

Hand Position 9: Place your hands above the waist line, on the kidney area with continued inhalation.

Hand Position 10: Gently place your hands on the soles of your feet. Cross your left leg over your right knee to reach your left foot and right leg over your left knee to reach your right foot. Remember not to exert yourself.

However, do remember that Reiki is not a substitute for any severe mental health treatment. It can only be considered as a complementary form of healing along with the conventional medical treatment.

Vaastu Tips While Buying a New Home

Choose a minimum of three options when it comes to your dream home.

People often get confused when it comes to which direction the house is facing. Stand at the entrance of the home as if you are going inside. Check the direction you are facing using a compass while in that position. The direction that you get when you stand in that particular position is the direction in which the house faces. So when you come out of the house, if you are facing North, it becomes a North-facing house.

Always opt for the main entrance in the East, North or North-East.

It is wise to prefer a home that has a lot of open space in the North to East region.

The morning sun rays should fall inside your home but not the evening light.

The master bedroom should be located in South-west, kitchen in South-East and children’s room in North-West.

The prayer corner should be in the North to East region.

It is risky to trust the directions mentioned on floor plan as it can be wrong so it is advised that you go and check the layout and directions first-hand in person.

According to Vaastu, every premise should be a square or a rectangular.

If you have taken fancy to a particular house while house hunting but it is not Vaastu-compliant, you need not worry. It is best to get a Vaastu expert on board to evaluate all aspects of the house and take corrective measures to tackle it. Traditional methods include wall painting according to Vaastu colours, adding mirrors and special metallic wires, depending upon the individual case. You could demolish and reconstructs a particular area properly if it does not adhere to the Vaastu guidelines.

The secret of a happy home is the house itself, its location and interior plan layout. All the best!
