In literal translation, the word "feng shui" means "wind and water".It is believed that it is these elements that control our lives, affect our health, and also on certain events. Feng Shui is the oldest Chinese science, whose goal is to master the natural elements and direct their energies in the right direction.
Children are most affected by natural elements. They are in constant growth, and the energy surrounding them can help them grow, develop physically, spiritually and intellectually, or on the contrary, slow down these processes. Of course, all parents want their children to be in harmony with the outside world, but for this it is necessary to create a favorable environment for them. Children's room for Feng Shui will help the baby feel confident and free, so that he can quickly form as a person. On how to properly organize feng shui in the nursery, today, "House of Dreams" and tell his readers.
The location of the children's room in an apartment or house according to the feng shui
Each sector of the apartment is governed by one or another energy. Children's zone for feng shui in the apartment should not be located in the center, otherwise the child will develop excessive egocentrism, desire to manage and manipulate people. Also, do not equip the children's room opposite the front door and opposite the parents' room. In the first case, the energy that promotes child growth will be dissipated outside, and in the second, this energy will be suppressed by parental influence. It is better to arrange a children's room in the eastern sector of the apartment, becauseThe East symbolizes dawn, growth and development. It is very good if the children's room is bordered by the parent's bedroom. In this case, the baby will feel protected, but, at the same time, free.
It is important to pay attention to the shape of the children's room. Ideally, it should be spacious, broad and high. However, do not place the baby in a room in which there are more than two windows, becausethe energy flows will dissipate outward. It is undesirable that the child's room is attended by various partitions, ledges or columns, because any obstacles cause a stagnation of positive energy, because of which the baby can often be capricious and moping.
Arrangement of the children's room for feng shui
It is known that the most active children grow in a dream, so parents need to pay close attention to the location of the child's bed. According to the rules of feng shui, the head of the bed should be directed to the wall, where there are no windows or doors. In addition, it is desirable that the bed is not closely pushed to the wall and is not in front of the door. Do not place any lockers or shelves above the bed, becausethey will interfere with the movement of favorable energy, because of what the baby can not fully rest during sleep. Now very popular is a compact multifunctional furniture that combines a bed and an educational or playing area. However, mixing different zones will cause a confusion of energy, which makes it difficult for the child to concentrate while studying and relax during sleep. Also, children under 12 years of age are not recommended to sleep in a bunk bed, since in this case the energy of the child sleeping below will be suppressed, and the energy of the child sleeping at the top will dissipate.
The child's training area should be installed in the north-east of the room in the knowledge sector. While studying how to properly arrange furniture in the children's room for Feng Shui, note that sitting at the table, the kid does not need to see his bed, otherwise it will be difficult for him to concentrate on studying. It is also not advisable that the desk is in front of the door. Since this sector is controlled by the active energy of Yan, you need to back it up with additional symbols. In order for the child to feel more interest in knowledge, you can equip a beautiful shelf with books in the training area, put a globe or hang a card. A good help in this area will be a statuette or an owl toy that symbolizes knowledge and wisdom.
Feng Shui of a children's room also includes a play area. In the process of playing, the child not only fills his leisure time, but also knows the world around him, learning to interact with other people, so the playing zone should be arranged in the southwest of the room responsible for communication and friendship. As the game is controlled by the most active energies, this zone can be installed near the door or near the window.
The eastern sector of the room is responsible for health. To keep the baby well and not sick, this area should be free and clean. It is not necessary to install on its territory any functional furniture or cabinets for storing a lot of things. Best of all, if there is something alive in the eastern sector of the room - a plant, an aquarium, a cage with a parrot, or at least posters depicting animals and plants. However, in the eastern part of the room you can not have artificial ponds or fountains, becausecurrent water will "take away" the health of the child.
Color design of a child by the principles of feng shui
The children are controlled by the active energy Yan, who loves everything bright, juicy and colored. However, bright colors in the child's room should be diluted with soft pastel shades.
In the recreation area, Yin energy dominates, so it is desirable to decorate it in light, calm tones. The training zone should be neutral, and the zone for playing or playing sports can be highlighted with the brightest shades.
The general color design in the children's room is often selected depending on the sex of the child. However, according to Feng Shui, colors are not divided according to gender, but according to the temperament of the baby. For example, the color scheme of curtains in the children's room of a hyperactive child should be soft and muffled, and curtains of bright and juicy tones can help overcome the shyness of excessively modest children. By the same principle, colors and other accessories are selected in the children's room.
Decorating the abode of the child, it's important to remember that the children's room byFeng Shui is not only the proper arrangement of furniture and the appropriate color design, but also the creation of the most favorable atmosphere. As decorations, choose only happy images in pictures and posters, avoiding complex works of art and dark tones. In addition, feng shui does not tolerate chaos, so it is necessary to teach the child to maintain order independently.
