Essential Feng Shui Tips: Single Men’s Bedrooms
Feng Shui Definitions
These suggestions are for men who want to attract romance into their lives:
- Is your bedroom a multipurpose room where you work out, watch TV, surf the Net, write proposals, and (supposedly) rest? Although this arrangement may be practical, it is not the slightest bit romantic. To attract a partner, make room for romance. Put your active equipment, TV, and computer in other rooms. If any of these items need to stay in your bedroom, screen or cover them when they’re not in use. Let your bed command your bedroom, and keep your bed linens clean and welcoming.
- Check your art. Introduce artistic elements that suggest sensuality and serenity, and move “single guy” art such as cars, centerfolds, or basketball stars to another location.
Essential Feng Shui Tips: Single Women’s Bedrooms
Feng Shui Definitions
These suggestions are for single women who want romance in their lives:
- Stuffed animals and dolls on the bed “whisper” to a new lover that the bed is already taken. Make room for romance by giving them a home somewhere else.
- Romantic spontaneity is hampered by a wall of pillows on the bed. Cull the pillow herd, especially “fussy” pillows that need special care. Design a sensuous, unencumbered bed that you can fall into without a “single” care.
- Change art portraying companionless figures, solitary flowers, and other “onesome” subjects to “twosome” art: two people, animals, flowers, or two of anything that inspires you.
- Place pairs of items, such as candlesticks, vases, and books in the Love and Marriage area of your home and your bedroom (see Bagua Map).
- Act as if you already have a partner! Put inviting nightstands and lamps on both sides of your bed.
- Set the stage for receiving your new love by giving yourself the same loving care that you would a lover. Your loving relationship with yourself will strengthen your Ch’i and make you more attractive as a partner. Create a romantic atmosphere for yourself. Enjoy your own company, and find out what it’s like to really love you.
Essential Feng Shui Tips: Crystals
Feng Shui Definitions
Round, faceted leaded glass crystals are used in Feng Shui to balance and moderate extremes in Ch’i flow. Crystals are considered transcendental “cures,” meaning that they carry the strength of your intention to balance Ch’i that’s moving too quickly or slowly through your home. Their small size makes them easy to use where there is no room for any other enhancement. They are available at most gift shops, and range in size from 15 to 50 millimeters (mm), with 25 mm (one inch) being the most popular size for Feng Shui purposes.

Essential Feng Shui Tips: Children’s Bedrooms
Feng Shui Definitions
- Unlike the master bedroom, it’s a good idea to have family photos in children’s bedrooms. Photographs of parents and grandparents make children feel secure and “watched over” at night.
- Many “hyperactive” children are sleeping in bedrooms with bright red sheets and walls full of action figures. Calm their bedrooms down! Replace 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.
- Children are often very sensitive to mirrors. If they are not sleeping well, be sure to curtain, cover, or remove mirrors from their bedroom.
- Pets living in children’s bedrooms, such as hamsters, turtles, and fish, should be well taken care of. A neglected pet actually drains the vital Ch’i in a youngster’s bedroom.
- When children share a bedroom, give each child a distinct place to call his or her own, such as a table, closet, or shelf. This keeps each child’s Ch’i individually defined, and helps them learn to respect one another’s space.
Essential Feng Shui Tips: Master Bedroom
Feng Shui Definition
- Make your master bedroom a sensual place, meaning a place where all your senses are celebrated. Add romantic music and sensuous fabrics, include scented oils and candles, drink something delicious in bed, and choose art and colors that visually wrap you in their warm embrace.
- No matter how big your master bedroom is, make it cozy and romantic. Most people like to feel nestled into their bedrooms, completely secure and sheltered from the world. If your bedroom is large, create two or more cozy places to enjoy.
- Move photographs of children and family to another location. Your romantic life will improve if photos of your kids and parents aren’t staring at you in bed.
- Couples who share the same view from their bed also tend to share the same point of view in life. Make the view from your bed absolutely wonderful, with art or other features that both partners find very pleasing.
- Make sure there’s adequate space, nightstands, and lamps on both sides of the bed.
- Be diligent about locating a master bedroom television behind closed doors. In most cases, when TV viewing increases in the bedroom, lovemaking decreases.
Essential Feng Shui Tips: All Bedrooms
Feng Shui Definitions
Because our Western culture puts little importance on rest, our bedrooms are frequently not conducive to a good night’s sleep. Ideally, our bedrooms are a perfect combination of cozy nest, rejuvenating oasis, and romantic hideaway—a sensual embrace where we go to completely recharge our batteries.
