Essential Feng Shui Tips: The Royal Bed
Make your bed “the King or Queen” of your bedroom. Although a multipurpose bedroom may be practical, it is not the slightest bit romantic. To attract a partner, make room for romance by putting your exercise equipment, television, desk, and computer in other rooms.

Q&A: Which Bedroom Color is Best?
Q: Good morning, I’ve been reading The Western Guide to Feng Shui Room by Room. Wonderful and very interesting. I’ve actually recommended it to about 10 friends.

Replace the colors of bright reds, blues, and yellows with warm pastels and deep rich tones that wrap children in a cozy, tranquil embrace. Bring in serene or happy art that isn’t flying, falling, driving or running around the room.

Ask what your partner is feeling and what would make him or her happy. Having a heart-to-heart talk is often the quickest way to reawaken the romantic feelings that brought you together.
