The Lazy & Fast Way to Create Your own Feng Shui Living RoomWhat will you say if you can have a good feng shui living room that improves social life and family relation? How do you like the idea? What will you say if you know that it can be done easily yourself….even if you are not an expert? Interested? Join me then… Before the details, it’s important to know that this is the room where family or group takes priority consideration over individual. Family members and guests should feel welcomed and cozy here. This is a highly-used gathering room for fostering communication and interactive activities. Avoid arrangement where the television set is the focal point of the living room. Don’t know what I mean? Check out the diagram below to understand what bad & good feng shui living room layout is about...
Balancing the Feng Shui Elements Avoid using Metal or Water elements as the dominant element….Fire…well if you intent to create a high energy room. My recommedation is to go for Earth element. Earth is especially good for distressing and creates a supportive environment. That said, you should still balance this common space with the rest of the 4 feng shui elements. Introduce the rest of the elements appropriately in this space.
If you follow my recommendation for feng shui element, you should consider using yellow, beige, tan, yellow or orange for this room.
Well, every room should have a focal point. The focal point helps people feel centered and grounded. Now, the sofa is the most commonly used focal point for the living room...so we will put a little more emphasize on this piece of furniture. Place the sofa against a solid wall to give a good support. If it is not possible then create a “wall” using screen, tall plants or shelving. Place sofa at comfortable angle to each other to induce conversation.
"Will You be Interested to Create Abundance Wealth in Your House?" If you study the Ba Gua Map (See feng shui in the home), the top left corner is the wealth spot. Now, if I am you, I will put Citrine crystals in that corner. :)
Citrine enumerates strong wealth energy. Placing it in this corner amplify the wealth energy within your house. Ok…don’t get carried away for the moment.. ;) Let’s look at how other crystals can help to incorporate and blend into this room to create your DIY feng shui living room. Now if you are using your living room for group discussion and idea generation. Probably you want to have an atmosphere filled with enthusiasm. Position clear quartz crystals at the window and invite chi into the room can help in this area. Now here’s a little trick if you are expecting a perky guest…. Hang a large carnelian crystal by the window. This arrangement helps to clam the atmosphere and prevent the guest from dominating the gathering session. Try this out to create a relaxing and enjoyable gathering with plenty of interaction among all parties.
That's right! Use aroma to aid in the creation of a feng shui living room. A word of caution though. Scents is a very personal thing and everyone responds differently to them. For me, I find orange refreshing but I have friends who find the smell choking and overwhelming. So be aware of the presence of other members when using scents to evoke emotions. I recommend a maximum of half hour if you are keen to evoke emotion using scent. Any longer than that, desensitize one from its effect. So what scents to use? If you are looking for rejuvenating and uplifting scents, go for lemon or orange. On the other hand, apple and cinnamon evoke a feeling of warmth and comfort.
