Pink and red are the colors of romance, and wearing them in the bedroom can increase the romance in our relationships.
# 2 The position of your bed
In Feng Shui, the “dominant position” of the bed is as far away as possible from the bedroom door, but in a place that still allows you to keep an eye on the entrance to the room. “This gives you a feeling of security and protection while you rest.”
Try not to place your bed under the lower angle of a gabled roof, a ceiling fan or a heavy beam.
Avoid positioning your bed under a window You will not be supported by a solid wall for protection and can lead to erratic sleep with energy going in and out through the window.
Solid headboards, it can be made of wood, are considered good feng shui as they provide additional resistance and support behind the head.

# 3 Go for curves, not corners
If you are about to acquire a new nightstand or other furniture for your bedroom, try to choose pieces with smooth lines and curvilinear shapes. “Square corners have too much energy at the tips and can create a ‘sharp’ vibe.”
Right-angled “poison arrows” are thought to direct negative energy directly into your sleep, which can cause a feeling of discomfort, experts say.
# 4 Clean up clutter
From a Feng Shui perspective, clutter symbolizes unfinished business and impedes forward progress in life. Even clutter under the bed has its own energy, which can disturb sleep.
“Less is more” also applies to the wardrobe. According to experts, clutter behind closed doors can be just as ozone as clutter outside. Keep in mind you should also get rid of old memories and objects (even under the mattress) associated with a negative moment in your life, a health problem in the past, or a previous relationship.
# 5 Isolate yourself from the world
The bedroom should be a place of rest, contemplation and privacy. It is not recommended to have exercise machines or stereos in the bedroom. Exercise machines, telephones, a television or computer or a desk, a stack of bills or documents, emit and absorb a great deal of energy, say Feng Shui practitioners. They also distract you from rest and romance. “The bedroom is a place where you have to release the tensions of the day.”
# 6 Create a space for couples
In Feng Shui, whether you are alone or in company, you should consider building a “sanctuary of love” in your room. “Having only one nightstand or space on one side of the bed is symbolic of loneliness.” So singles should also have the accessories and works of art on both sides of the bed as if they lived as a couple; a couple of candles, flowers or bushes, two bedside tables, lamps for the tables, etc.
# 7 Open your eyes to beauty
A common strategy is Feng Shui is to choose art and other objects that represent things that you would like to see or have in your life; success, love or inner peace. In the bedroom, professionals suggest that you hang your favorite piece of art on the wall opposite the bed. “It will be the first thing you will see when you go to bed and wake up.” That is not photos of your relatives, but should focus on your partner.
Remember not to place a mirror in front of, or on the side or on top of the bed. It will bring too much energy bounce into the room and will not let you have a good rest, these reflective surfaces are believed to magnify problems and concerns
# 8 Right Light
When it comes to bedroom lighting, Feng Shui experts say flexibility is key: Ideal is natural light during the day, soft light at night, and darkness while sleeping.
# 9 Create a sensual atmosphere
Light scented candles or use a lavender essential oil diffuser (induces relaxation, and jasmine, rose, and geranium are associated with love).
Invest in good bed sheets – made from pure Egyptian cotton, soft silk, soft velvet and cozy cashmere.
Play relaxing music or sounds of nature, or hang a wind chime outside your bedroom window to fill the space with soothing sounds.
Enjoy a good glass of wine or a plate of chocolate covered strawberries in bed, or wake up your partner with some delicious flavors of hot, fresh tea, butter croissants for two.
