Essential Feng Shui® observes that your master bedroom holds your rest, rejuvenation, and romance in place.
-
Encourage Relaxation – Let the bed rule the room. Make your bed the king or queen so that the only thing to “do” in the bedroom is relax and connect with your partner.Ideally, everything about your bedroom, from the bed to the soft lighting and quiet atmosphere, offers a restful haven for your body, mind, and spirit. Large master bedroom suites often include space for additional lounging areas.A chaise lounge by a window, two upholstered chairs beside a fireplace, or a cozy reading nook can enhance your bedroom’s tranquil mood. Call-to-action items such as computers, televisions, and exercise equipment are not invited into the bedroom, as they break the mood. Anything that inhibits total unplugging from worldly activities belongs elsewhere.
-
Improve Sleep – Treat mirrors like windows.The same mirrors that brighten a master bedroom during the day may interfere with getting a good night’s sleep.The bigger the mirror and the closer it is to the bed, the more it has a “wide open window” effect that can cause restlessness and insomnia. Because removing mirrored closet doors is often impractical or undesirable, it can be curtained like a window, while a bureau mirror may be draped at night.
-
Enhance Romance – Move everyone else out. As important as photographs of the kids, friends, and family are, they don’t belong near the bed. All those eyes watching from bureaus and nightstands can destroy the romantic mood. Art depicting people can be just as disconcerting near the bed.Assure a complete sense of privacy by displaying art and photos of people elsewhere, and choose serene or sensual art for your bedroom.
-
Cultivate Sensuality – Make your bedroom magnificent. The master bedroom is the place for romantic lighting and music, sensual fabrics, and favorite fragrances. Skin positively glows against the many delicious colors found in drinks and desserts like brandy, chocolate, caramel, champagne, cinnamon, mocha, peaches, raspberries, and vanilla. Cool colors like pure white, black, gray, and some blues and greens are best used only as accents in your bedroom.
-
Honor Balance – Let equality prevail. A master bedroom typically has two masters. To symbolize a couple’s equality, it’s ideal to have bedside lighting and furnishings that are equal. They don’t have to be identical, simply equal in size and quality. When space is limited, scale down the furniture and lighting on both sides of the bed accordingly.
-
Invite Harmony – Create a great view.What a couple sees from the bed symbolizes the harmony—or lack thereof—in their relationship. Couples who share the same beautiful view from the bed also tend to share the same positive viewpoints in life.When a bathroom or closet provide the primary view from the bed, pull the curtain, close the door, and enhance the view by displaying a favorite painting or other beautiful items that both partners find very appealing.
According to Essential Feng Shui®, the master bedroom is the sanctuary in your home. It is meant to provide you with a nurturing tranquil atmosphere where you can intimately connect with your partner and be fully restored. Enjoy looking through your Feng Shui eyes to see how you can bring more balance and harmony into your bedroom.

A couple’s master bedroom is often an accurate reflection of their relationship. Many couples don’t realize that their bedroom can strengthen and nourish, or dampen and weaken, their marital happiness.
