Feng shui is a traditional Chinese practice that focuses on the layout to influence wellbeing. The method recognises if there’s good or bad energy in a room and looks at ways to boost the flow of good energy or take away any negative energy. There are lots of things you can do to increase your feng shui. Things such as the layout of your furniture, the colours in your room, to your accessories – all can have an impact.
All rooms can benefit from Feng Shui but have you ever thought about how you could Feng Shui your bathroom?
Can you think of a better way to start your day than in having some me-time in your little bathroom haven? If you want to work on the feng shui of your bathroom it doesn’t mean you have to redecorate. Let’s go through some really simple steps you can take to update your bathroom.
Warm colours
Colours can influence your mood more than you probably realise. They can encourage creativity and soothe the mind. As I mentioned before, you don’t have to redecorate to incorporate a new colour into your bathroom, you could change up your towels and accessories instead. Choose warm colours like soft blues or yellows. These colours are closely related to water and sunshine which enhances peace and cheer, therefore they are likely to trigger similar emotions in you.
Of course, if you do want to redecorate your bathroom, there is absolutely no reason why you can’t use these colours on the walls too.
Add plants
Plants can enhance your body and your mind. They keep the air clean by consuming toxin this can have some surprising benefits on your health. Plants can also help you sleep better and reduce levels of fatigue thus reducing stress levels.
Adding a lavender plant to your window sill or propping it in a spot that gets the most sunlight will maximise its benefits – a stress and anxiety reliever.
Peace lilies are ideal for the bathroom. Not only are they extremely low maintenance but they are great for keeping your air clean by absorbing the compounds in the air.
Choose your accessories
Think about the accessories you could have in your bathroom – think candles and sumptuous rugs. Creative pictures or art frames can keep your space open and your mind happy.
Clean regularly
It sounds like a bit of a no brainer but by keeping your bathroom clean it can have lasting positive impacts on you and your family. Be sure to get rid of any bathroom products that you haven’t used in over 6 months. Declutter the space and move products off the window sill and into organised drawers. Small steps like this can have a big impact.
Feng shui doesn’t have to be a hard process. By trying these simple tips they could have a monumental effect on your life. Have I convinced you?
