feng shui advice?

I want to rearrange my bedroom according to feng shui but I can’t figure it out! Please, if you can help me, I can provide pictures of my room so you can see my problem. I really need help, as the current arrangement is causing me to sleep badly.

You’ll probably need to find a good book or two on feng shui practices, or find someone who really knows what they are doing and can help you, if you are planning to change your entire bedroom/sleeping area accordingly. There are some very simple things you can do, though, that will increase good energy flow and are part of feng shui practices. The link below should help get you started. Some of the suggestions I’ve read say your bed should not face the door, you should avoid mirrors or too many mirrors, you should open the door or a window for at least 20-30 minutes a day to allow good energy to flow through, eliminate any and all clutter, if you have a television take it out or cover or hide it when not in use, have things with soft edges in your room, etc. Hope this helped and good luck to you!

Feng Shui Home Decorating Tips : Feng Shui for the Master Bedroom

Dorm Room Feng Shui $4.48 We’ve Feng Shui-ed the home and the office. Now it’s time for this ancient Chinese art of spatial arrangement and orientation to take on the greatest challenge of all — the dorm room. Fifteen million kids go off to college each fall, laden down with bedding, wall hangings, computer, books, clothes, stereo, mini-fridge, photos, etc. — and they are determined to cram it all into one very small dorm room. The problem is compounded when the roommate shows up with an equal pile of stuff. How do you make a dorm room comfortable and conducive to everything from sleeping to studying to socializing? When confronted with this dilemma in her own tiny, first-year dorm room, author Katherine Olaksen called for help — and feng shui answered. In Dorm Room Feng Shui, Olaksen presents quick, cheap, and innovative feng shui fixes designed to cure any student’s troubles. A nine-second quiz helps zero in on the life issues that need the most attention, from roommate relationships to career choices, and the corresponding areas of the dorm room to focus on.
