September is back to school month!  It is a time for change and growth as kids learn new things, acquire new skills, and make new friends. During this time, it is important that kids are surrounded by supportive, strong and positive energy.

This month and next months I will share some basic Feng Shui tips which will help you create an empowering environment that will help your kids thrive.

Bed Position

The position of the bed is very important in Feng Shui because the bed is the place where they sleep, rests and recharge their energy.

Ideally, we want to place the bed in the Commanding Position by;

  • Placing the bed as far away as possible from the entrance door.
  • Having a good view of the door while lying in bed (this symbolizes that you feel prepared to deal with whatever is coming into your life).
  • Putting the headboard against a solid wall and not under a window (this supports the creation of strong, supportive energy).
  • Avoiding the alignment of the bed with the entrance door as the energy coming into the room moves straight and too powerful towards the bed.

In some cases, the layout of the room will not allow you to place the bed in the perfect position.  If this is the case try your best and experiment with the different options you may have.  You will quickly find what position is the most soothing for your kid.  I, myself, experienced some challenges with my daughter’s bedroom and had to test many different options before I was able to find the most favorable position for her.
