With so many of us downsizing and moving into smaller spaces, here are nine Feng Shui tips to help you in your small spaces.
1. Use The Front Door:
The front door is the entryway to bring in good chi (life energy), balance and harmony. Make sure the area is clutter free. Place a well-maintained doormat at the front door welcoming the chi. Make sure this area is well lit and honor this space by using the front door every day.
2. Declutter:
Small spaces can develop clutter quickly. Be mindful of any objects on the floor that do not belong such as boxes or books, these objects will stagnant the energy flow. Closets represent hidden areas in your life so clean those out in order to bring clarity to all aspects of your life.
3. Clean Under the Bed:
To ensure a restful sleep clear out anything that is under your bed. Storing items under the bed will block the energy flow and can represent blocks in your relationships.
4. Live Plants:
Bring in healthy, live plants into your small space. These plants enhance the wood element and symbolize new beginnings and enhance family relationships.
5. Clean and Replace Light Bulbs:
Light blubs represent passion, the fire element so make sure they are clean and working. Turing on light bulbs can light the way for love or new business opportunities.
6. Use the Burners on Your Stove Daily:
No matter how small your kitchen might be it represents health and abundance. The preparation of food is a sacred act and the stove represents life force and nourishment, but it is also an energy generator. Use all the burners every day. Only using one or two burners may suggest that you are not activating the full potential of abundance available to you.
7. Place a Bowl of Nine Oranges in Your Kitchen:
Oranges stimulate the mind and improve your mood. Symbolically the orange represents gold and will improve your cash flow.
8. Move Nine Objects Around:
Nine is an auspicious number in Feng Shui, so moving nine objects in your small space will stir up the chi in your home. There is not an object too small or big to move, and just moving an object slightly will make a difference.
9. Space Clearing:
The air in small spaces tends to become stagnant. Open up all the windows and doors and burn incense or sage throughout the house. The fresh air will clear out any stress and negativity.
