HOW TO FENG SHUI YOUR HOME

Feng shui is the Chinese principle of harmony and balance. When applied to your home, it aims to achieve balanced energy into your home and give you good health and fortune. Feng shui experts suggest that you incorporate feng shui cures when decorating your home. Here are some feng shui decorating tips that can help you on how to feng shui your home;

1. The first thing that you got to have before making feng shui decoration in your home is to purchase a feng shui tool called bagua map. It is used in determining auspicious areas and elements for decorating.

2. Sketch every area of your house including fixtures like windows, sinks, bathtubs and windows. Place the bagua map over the sketch of the rooms to identify what bagua area they fall into. This will show whether the room falls in the wealth area or relationship area. After identifying each room area in the bagua map, the interior decorator can now decorate the room according to the five elements of feng shui.

3. Use colors to enhance feng shui. Earth and fire elements are best represented with the color pink. Items that represent fire and earth elements like candles and plants are best placed in these areas as well.

4. Wood and health elements are best represented with the color brown. Flowers, plants and paintings that depict nature like forests and mountains are best for this area too. This area must be dust free and clean at all times.
