What's Going on in Your Bedroom?

Ah ... the month of love is upon us.  The first thing I think about when February or Valentine's Day approaches  is "How is the energy in the bedroom and love zone flowing?". Not only am I an interior decorator but also a zone feng shui master.  After years of training and applying feng shui principles I am very sensitive to the energy of my space and others.
The bedroom is a place to sleep, relax and feel loved.  It should be uncluttered, beautiful, calming and quiet.  It should also be romantic.  There are many basic rules in feng shui that we take into account when analyzing a clients home.  The first we need to find out is what is going on in the lives of the people living in the home.  If the bedrooms energy is out of whack, it usually reflects in what is going on in their lives.  For example the client might say that they have trouble sleeping.  It could be that their bed is in the wrong position, under a window, or perhaps they have a metal headboard or worse, no headboard at all.   There could be a number of other reasons for the sleepless nights.  My job is to try to figure out what it is and suggest placements and cures.  Another common complaint of the client, if single, might be they want a romantic relationship or if they are a couple they may be having relationship issues.   Everything in the bedroom and the love and relationship zone is about love, whether it is self love or the love of someone else.  We try to place items in this area in pairs, for example, two matching nightstands and lamps, this signifies equality and balance in their relationship.

There are many other cures for the bedroom or love zone such as color, zone  elements,  placement of objects, size of bed and so on.  The mood and functionality of the bedroom can be fixed with interior decorating.

I can't think of a more perfect gift for Valentines Day.  A beautiful, balanced, romantic, restful bedroom.  If you need help creating that space contact me.  Happy Valentines Day!
