Relationships and Feng Shui

Another thing that some people feel they are lacking in is relationships, whether it’s a marriage, friendship, or relationship with your children, siblings, parents or other relatives. How does this work in the equation? Well, having positive relationships can provide you with more energy. People want to feel that someone cares about their well-being. Maintaining any kind of relationship takes work and it doesn’t happen overnight. There are some that are healthy, and others are just falling by the wayside. In regard to your home, there are some ways that can help you to keep your relationships fresh and positive:

Change the format of your furniture. If you have enough room, move it around to another angle or another wall. Don’t keep any furniture, such as a couch, bed, table or chairs in the same format every year. It starts to become monotonous. Moving your furniture around can help provide more energy in that area.

Whatever area of your house it is, focus on providing additional energy that is positive. You can do that by having fresh fruits, fresh flowers, or anything that is fresh and stands out.

Your bedrooms, bathrooms and closets should be clutter free. They should be areas that people wouldn’t mind looking at if you were showing your house to someone.
Having a television in your bedroom is not necessarily a good idea. It can be a distraction from your actual purpose.

Have pictures of you and your loved ones in a positive format.

Don’t crowd people and don’t allow them to crowd you. Everyone needs space and time for themselves.

Listen to music that is relaxing and soothes the soul. Certain types of music can provide great energy in the right environment.
