Feng Shui
Tips For Health
East is the direction to focus on when improvement in health
is desired. Wood is the element.
1) The most important first
step to realizing the benefits of Feng Shui is to perform
a Space Clearing procedure. Every environment has accumulated
negative energy, or "sha chi", that needs to be
eliminated. This procedure will make all other cures more
effective.

2) The most basic rule regarding
health is to make sure that your home is healthy. Keeping
it clean, organized and beautiful is the best way to attract
positive, healthy 'chi' into your space. The energy in your
home needs to be free-flowing and smooth like a river.
3) Keep your home/workplace
in good, functioning condition. Do not allow anything to linger
in a state of disrepair. Replace anything that is old, broken
or faded. Repair peeling paint, cracked walls and ceilings
and leaky faucets. Be sure that all windows are in good working
condition.
4) The Wu Lu gourd is a powerful
symbol of good health, longevity, and harmony in life. Placed
on a bedside table or in clear view in the eastern sector
of the work area, it will serve as a subconscious reminder
that perfect health is your chosen condition. A brass Wu Lu
makes a striking and functional paperweight.
5) Keeping a green or earth
element candle burning in the east as often as possible is
an excellent way to energize healing energy. Candles also
create an atmosphere of serenity and help to sooth and calm
the emotions.
6) Eliminate all things in
your home or workplace that you no longer use. Pass things
along to friends or donate them to charity.
7) Work towards eliminating
all clutter from your life. Begin to look honestly at why
you tend to accumulate so much un-needed stuff.
8) In the study of Feng Shui,
toilets are a huge concern. Always keep toilets and bathrooms
exceptionally clean. Keep the lid on the toilet closed at
all times when not in use, and keep the bathroom door closed
at all times.
9) The bedroom is an especially
important room when it comes to health, since this is where
we regenerate and heal during sleep. Keep the bedroom clean
and uncluttered, with a simple decor. Do not bring work into
the bedroom. Laptops, phones and exercise equipment are not
welcome here.
10) Electronic devices such
as TVs, clock radios, answering machines, and electric blankets
emit electromagnetic fields that can harm your health. If
you must keep any of these in the bedroom, be sure they are
at least six feet away from your body, or twelve feet, in
the case of a TV. Always cover the TV with a cloth when it
is not in use, especially while you sleep.
11) Never place your bed on
a wall that has a toilet on the other side. This is considered
a health hazard in Feng Shui.
12) In the bedroom, avoid
sleeping under sloping ceilings and bookcases or shelves.
All of these are oppressive and can aggravate problems such
as headaches, restlessness and insomnia. If this type of architecture
is unavoidable, a windchime with a horizontal bamboo mounting
can help to redirect this oppressive force.
13) Do not sleep directly
under a beam. If this is unavoidable, hang a pair of bamboo
flutes or a bamboo windchime with hollow tubes from the beam.
14) Beware of poison arrows
that point at you while you sleep. Hang faceted crystals in
front of protruding corners to disperse negative 'chi'.
15) Do not place a fountain
in the bedroom. Fountains are too yang and are considered
to be a deterrent to good health in this area. The same rule
holds true for potted plants. If you really enjoy a plant
in the bedroom, choose one that is relatively small and has
gentle, round shaped leaves.
16) Energize the wood sector
(east) of your home with lush green accents, such as pillows,
rugs, or window treatment. If the east sector is the living
room, dining room or any room other than a bedroom, this is
a great location for a beautiful potted plant. (Live plants
are considered too yang for the bedroom ). In an eastern bedroom,
use solid wood furniture as well as green accent colors.
