Be sure your bed is in a commanding position. This means that when you are in your bed, you’re facing the door, but you should not be directly in line with the door. You don’t want any doors to open up directly in line with the bed. Especially avoid the “coffin position” where your feet point out the door. Place your headboard against a solid wall where there is not a door.

Be sure to fasten your headboard securely to the bed so you can feel the most support and strength in your life. Letters from ex-partners may keep you stuck in your current relationship status. Shoes can keep you feeling like you’re moving rather than resting. Luggage might keep you on the go and never feeling quite at home. It’s time to clear out the space under your bed. If possible, it’s recommended to have no storage at all under the bed. Then, the qi (life force energy) can flow freely all around and rejuvenate you while you’re sleeping. If you must utilize it for some kind of storage, stick to soft, sleep-related items like linens, blankets, and pillows. They don’t have to match, but rather they should be complementary and balanced. It helps create space and harmony for you and your relationship. Most importantly, sense and pay attention to what colors you’re attracted to. Sometimes we know exactly what we need if we just listen. Keep the book you’re currently reading on your nightstand. But you need to clear the stacks of books on the floor or bookshelf in the bedroom. Books contain active energy and stimulate the mind. For a more restful night’s sleep, try moving the books out of the space. If you don’t have the space elsewhere in your home to create a dedicated office, do your best to create some separation within your bedroom with a curtain, folding screen, or bookshelf. If you don’t have room for that either, try covering your desk at the end of each day with a beautiful piece of cloth. There is such a thing as too big of a bed, though. King-sized beds generally require a box spring that comes in two separate pieces, which disrupts the connection and harmony between two partners. Look for a bed that doesn’t need a split box spring or opt for a platform bed. Plants invite restorative energy and growth in all areas of your life. Be sure to choose a plant that works with the available light in the room. Also if you’re new to plants, try one that’s easy to care for, like a pothos, so any greenery in your bedroom doesn’t look sickly if you forget to tend to it. Choose the color of your bed linens based on what you would like to invite into your life—remember red for passion and soothing neutrals for relaxation.

Don’t put your bed where it will face a mirror or the reflection could disturb your sleep.Don’t place your headboard against a wall that has a toilet on the other side or your good fortune could be flushed away.Don’t place your bed under any low beams, soffits, or sloped ceilings or you will feel pressure.Don’t place water fountains, water features, or images of water in your bedroom or good fortune and love could wash away.Don’t push the side of your bed up against a wall. Make sure your bed is positioned on a wall where you have space available on three sides of the bed (left, right, and foot) so that energy is not trapped.Don’t hang a chandelier over your bed because it may cause harsh light and feelings of unease if something is dangling above you at night.
