Place your bed as far from the front door as you possibly can and never between a window and room of the door as chi needs to move freely between window and door. Make sure there is enough circulation and fresh air in your room to help you restore and recharge. Position your bed so that you are far from the door and have a clear view of your bedroom’s door as this will give you a sense of security without being in the path of the flow of energy. Sleeping in line with the door or in the line of flow from window to door can expose you to too much chi which could also contribute to restlessness and irritability.

When sharing a bed with another person, keep the bed in the middle of the wall to allow even flow of chi to both of you. With the bed up against the wall to one side, you could make the person sleeping there feel cramped and they will be missing out on their equal share of chi.
Make sure your bed is positioned so that you have a wall or strong headboard for support. Try to sleep with your head pointing to one of your auspicious or lucky directions based on your Feng Shui Kua. For prosperity, point to your Sheng Chi direction, for personal growth especially for students – Fu Wei, for health – Tien Yi, and for relationship – Nien Yen. For young couples wishing to start a family, the best direction your headboard should be pointing to would be the husband’s Nien Yen direction.
If you also use your bedroom as an office, try moving it to another part of the house if possible. The energies from your workstation and bed are opposing energies and incompatible energies that will only clash with each other. If removing your computer from your bedroom is impossible, try using screens to separate them or placing Feng Shui crystals that absorb radiation and electronic smog.
Do not place a mirror directly across a window or door. This will only reflect and bounce the energy back with as much force. Also do not place a mirror or reflective objects such as TV facing your bed. If that can’t be avoided, use a cloth to cover it or make a built-in cabinet for your TV.
Amethyst crystal is good for the bedroom because it is a natural tranquilizer that helps one to sleep well at night. Place an Amethyst crystal ball or crystal tree on your bedside table.
Do not place your bed under a beam in the ceiling as the beam will push the flow of energy down on you and put pressure on your head, body and chest. This is known as Shar Chi or killing energy that is very harmful to one’s well being. If this cannot be avoided, hang Feng Shui flutes or Feng Shui crystal balls on the beam to reduce the ill effect.
The area at the foot of your bed should always be kept clear. This will allow our vision and inspiration to fly out into space and gather information.
