In order for you to wake up every morning cheerful and full of strength, you need to know the answer to the question “How should the bed be positioned in the bedroom?” About secrets correct setting we will tell you in this article.
Folk wisdom
Before placing a diagonal bed in a 12 m2 bedroom, it is worth remembering how things actually were in China, India or Korea when the canons that we are trying to follow today were formed. In cold climates, the whole family lived on an ondoli - a large couch-podium, inside which hot smoke from the stove passes. And this is not a bed. This is a living space for living and sleeping.
Asians slept not on beds, but on mats, placed on the floor or on an ondol. The bedrooms were not filled with large bulky furniture. Therefore, you can move a light mattress or mat as you please.
This trick won't work with a European bed. Because it is often simply impossible to place a bed in a small bedroom so that its head does not look out the window, but its foot faces the door.
Still, the security system that has been developed over centuries has its own meaning. Therefore, you need to listen to it and take it into account. However, you should not blindly copy recommendations that have been worked out in other climates and under other conditions. Otherwise, it will turn out that you simply do not have enough living space for this.

Bed direction according to feng shui
In addition to all the rules listed above, it is also important to take into account your personal favorable direction when choosing a place for the bed. However, what if you are married and sleep, as expected, with your spouse, which, to tell the truth, many Chinese do not do and prefer to sleep separately so as not to disturb each other’s favorable flows. It is believed that in this case the bed should be installed with the head in the direction of the wife’s personal favorable direction, while Entrance door the room should fall within the zone of the husband’s good personal direction. Try to determine what kind of energy is in your bedroom and if it is favorable for dreams, you don’t have to look the right direction, since all energies dominate personal directions.
Bed shape and color according to Feng Shui
Choosing the shape, size, color and quality of the bed according to Feng Shui is no less important than its correct placement, therefore, this issue should be approached with the utmost seriousness and carefully study all our recommendations described below.
In order for your family to always have peace, mutual understanding and love, the bed frame should cover one common mattress and there should be no divisions into separate parts, because they can lead to inevitable discord even in the strongest relationships. Based on the same considerations, two single beds cannot be moved together.
Extremely unfortunate and considered unacceptable round bed according to feng shui, In addition to poor shape, such beds often lack one or two backrests, and the backrest in this piece of furniture symbolizes the protection of the senses from prying eyes and intrusions; it must be higher than the footboard.
Feng Shui headboard
In general, the headboard of a bed can affect a lot, so its choice, as well as beds in general, should be approached very carefully. So, for example, wave-shaped backrests are well suited for people in creative professions, semicircular or oval headboards are suitable for businessmen and officials, square ones are suitable for workers. wooden backrests, and those who do not like and do not want to sleep a lot should choose a triangular backrest. Surely you have come across beds with an uneven headboard, on one side of which there is a gentle curve, and on the other, an elevation. This option in Feng Shui is called “Dragon and Phoenix” and it is intended exclusively for married couples, and the husband must necessarily sleep on the side of the elevation, and the wife, accordingly, where he is not.
The bed should be of a classic, regular shape, not too spacious, but not small, and correspond to the dimensions of the people who sleep on it.
You should also not sleep on water or air beds; all this interferes with extraneous elements in your relationship, which not only destroy the love of a married couple, but also harm sleep, rest and attracting the necessary positive energy.
The ideal material for making a bed frame is natural wood, only people born under the sign of this element can replace it with a metal one. The last two digits of your date of birth, which are the Bagu number, will help you determine your element.
Feng Shui bed, photo
If your choice nevertheless fell on a metal bed, and this is facilitated by the element “Metal,” you should place heating and electrical appliances away from it, since metal is a conductor of heat and electricity, which will simply absorb all favorable energy flows.
From the point of view of the ancient Chinese teachings of Feng Shui, antique beds with carved decoration and canopies are very favorable for sleep and relaxation, but purchasing a bed on wheels for quick movement is not recommended, as it will affect restless sleep and can lead to illnesses, because it looks a lot like a hospital bed.
The color of the beds, like all furniture in the bedroom, should not be flashy; it is better to stick to natural wood colors, as well as pastel shades.
Color bed linen according to feng shui.
As we have repeatedly noted in Feng Shui, colors play an important role; even the design has a certain power, which also applies to bed linen. We will tell you below what color it should be and what it means.
Red underwear - helps normalize blood circulation and metabolism, and also increases a person’s internal energy;
Orange underwear - fights blues, fatigue, depression, anxiety, fear and gives a restful sleep;
Green underwear - ensures rhythmic functioning of the cardiovascular system, reduces nervousness, helps to relax and rest the eyes;
Blue underwear - fights insomnia, gives a feeling of complete comfort and peace, evens out breathing, relieves tension;
Purple underwear - relieves migraines and other headaches, enhances intuition.
Sleep and dreams according to Feng Shui.
Since we are already talking about sleeping places, in conclusion I would like to talk a little about the meaning of sleep and dreams according to Feng Shui.
Sleep comes to each of us in our subconscious, while the brain is turned off and resting. The first dreams come to a person approximately ninety minutes after he has fallen soundly asleep and they last approximately five to fifteen minutes. In one night, a sleeper can see from four to six dreams, but he remembers only the plots of those that are truly important to him and those that can become a hint or help to him in real life.
Why can't we remember all our dreams? The answer is quite simple, firstly, most dreams are very short and do not have a specific meaning, and secondly, unconsciously, we quickly want to forget the bad events that happen in a dream and not bring them into reality.
Modern science has studied three types of dreams - subjective, spiritual and physical dreams. All of them are connected with our past, present and future life. It is believed that in a dream a person can very clearly and clearly see his future, recognize it and the signs present in it.
After waking up, we remember our dream and definitely want to know its meaning, regardless of whether it was good or bad, in order to understand what was told to us or what they want to protect and warn us from.
Feng Shui says if you had a dream in which you were afraid of something, beware of deception in life, terrible dreams that a sick person saw can foreshadow death, and a nightmare for a young woman can mean the love of her husband, prosperity and a quick replenishment of her life. family.
Follow the simple and accessible rules that Feng Shui encourages you to live by, and your dreams will always be only favorable, your health will be good, and your luck will never end. This is what we sincerely wish for you!

We place a bed in the bedroom according to Feng Shui
The physiological laws of the ancient traditions of the West recommend sleeping with your head to the east, that is, the head of the bed should be located in the room so that the crown of the sleeper is directed to the east, from where the sun rises. This is explained by the fact that the soul coming into the world, like all living energies aimed at growth, progress, vitality and development, makes a journey from East to West, like the daylight.
The movement of inanimate energies occurs in the opposite direction. Therefore, when determining the place and side of the headboard for the bed, you will choose for your body some qualities that it can develop more than others. For example,
- direction to the east with the head will add wisdom,
- lying with your head to the south, you will be healthier and stronger,
- those who are experiencing financial difficulties should sleep with their heads to the west,
- and according to Feng Shui, lying with your head to the north is quite allowed for those who feel overworked in order to reduce activity.
They even say that magnetic fields The Earth coincides with the flow of magnetic waves of the body (from the top of the head to the heels) during a person’s sleep, and the bioenergy channels of the Earth themselves will ensure that you constantly feel good, your rest is as effective as possible, and your muscles gain full strength. The brain, being in a state of relaxation, will receive discharge in a completely natural way.
Another point of view, which is more popular in the East, in contrast to the previous one, which is more often resorted to in the West: the one who sleeps with his head to the east, every day, together with the sun, activates all systems in the body, and if he is also a “lark”, he gets good health, spiritual balance and reason.
Secrets of planning a sleeping space - how the bed should be positioned
The driving force of progress and development of all things that are important for a person, Qi energy, surrounds everyone - this is what Orientalists say. It is believed that a person himself can organize the free flow of this energy, creating order and control in his area, or vice versa, creating obstacles to Qi, if there is often chaos around, and everything free places filled with boxes, bags, etc.
Taking into account all the rules of Eastern beliefs, care should be taken to:
- There was a space under the bed where Qi energy could circulate freely. No need to put drawers, suitcases, boxes and baskets under the bed.
- Accumulation or piling up of objects should not be allowed around the bed; bedside tables, cabinets, shelves near the bed should be kept to a minimum.
- If you live in two-story house, you need to make sure that there is no toilet or stove either above or below the bed.
- If the bedroom irregular shape, and it has an appendix, in which the corners are not visible from the side of the door, it is not recommended to place a bed in it, it is better to place a wardrobe or closet there.
- There is no need to place the bed in front of the door or window; you should not make the bed an uncomfortable island in the room if the space of the room does not allow it. If it is convenient to place an adult’s bed so that it can be approached from both sides, then a child’s bed should be adjacent to the wall in two places, stand in the corner: a feeling of security is very important at least until the age of 12 .
- There is no need to install the bed so that it is reflected either from above (if your ceiling is mirrored) or from the side (if there are mirrors on the wardrobe or a dressing table). A mirror is a complex energetic surface. And the colors of the walls in the bedroom should be pastel.
- Above the bed on the ceiling or on a sloping ceiling, especially if the headboard is located in this direction, nothing should hang over. It is not good if both the sloping ceiling (under the roof) and open beams are located above the bed, and it is equally uncomfortable if such a ceiling hangs over the head in the area of the head, or, the first thing a person sees when opening his eyes, is an inclined plane.
- There should be no sconces, shelves, massive paintings, or even a chandelier above the bed. If the room is small, the lighting problem can be solved LED lights or chandeliers in the shape of a plate or others flat shapes pressed to the ceiling.
- The bed must have a good-quality and durable headboard, or it must be adjacent to the wall with the headboard. According to Feng Shui, you do not need to place the head of the bed towards the window or in the corner with your head.
- Not only are there prejudices against sleeping with your feet towards the door, Feng Shui agrees here with the ancient Russian belief. But you cannot place the head of the bed at the entrance or door. Behind the parietal area there must be reliable wall, not a fragile partition. It should protect against noise that can disturb sleep, and protect against drafts.
- Pipelines, stove and fireplace air vents, and other systems where some kind of mass is constantly moving - water or gas - should not pass near the bed, so a bathroom or toilet behind the wall to which the bed adjoins is also a bad choice.
How to do not worth it:
In fact, even if according to Feng Shui all the rules cannot be followed for various reasons, these recommendations are conditional, although they explain a lot. But the main thing you should pay attention to in your own bedroom is comfort and cleanliness, the comfort of the mattress, right choice pillows (or lack thereof). Do not forget about the correct mode and healthy way life, then you will always feel good!
