General rules

How and where it is better to put a bed in the bedroom is not an easy question. But the answer to it can be found following the teachings of feng shui:

• Popular today, the doctrine of Feng Shui, which appeared in ancient China, says that under no circumstances should you have a sleeping place so that people lay on it with their feet toward the exit. There is a belief that in the dark time through the door to the room comes negative energy.

Important! If you do not have the opportunity to move the bed, then at least, before going to bed, close the door as tightly as possible.

• Put the bed in the bedroom so that the approach to it was on both sides. If such an arrangement is not possible, then a man must sleep under the wall, so that a woman does not take away his energy, climbing through it.
• You can protect yourself from bad energy by placing a table or a bar near the bed with a tall living plant. Also suitable is the space separating the screen. The main thing is that the height of these objects exceeds the height of your bed. It is considered that then all the negative energy will be on them, and those sleeping on the bed will be protected.
• It is undesirable for the mirror to be located on the side or opposite the bed. You should think this out beforehand so that the mirror does not reflect you in a dream.
• Make sure that the sewer or water pipes do not pass over the bed head. By Feng Shui, sewage takes away health. And in terms of comfort, this is not very good, because the noise of water in the pipes will prevent sleep.
• In the bedroom should only stand the necessary things. All objects accumulate energy, and more of it can interfere with complete relaxation.
• If the bed is double, then the mattress for it should be one, not two stacked together, otherwise - the border will separate the couple emotionally, which can cause problems.

Important! Correctly put the bed in a small bedroom is not easy. There are rules that can be ignored, but one of them must be observed: there should not be sharp corners near the bed, they should not be allowed to face the bed, because negative energies emanate from acute corners. And for a sleeping person this is extremely harmful.

Relationship between sleep, ceiling and bed

When building a sleeping room, in particular when placing a bed, people do not often attach importance to the ceiling. But in fact it is important, because if there are large items on the bed, for example, a chandelier, in a dream a person can feel a subconscious alarm. Because of this, from massive lighting devices with a large number of pendants and plafonds it is desirable to refuse.

In the bedroom area where the bed is placed, it is not recommended to equip a ceiling with exposed beams. The best option would be to make a smooth white surface. You can also make a suspended ceiling - this is a great opportunity to hide beams.

Important! According to Feng Shui, it is considered that there should be no mirrors in the bedroom above the location of the sleeper, so you need to forget about the mirror ceilings. One should not allow a person who sleeps to be reflected in a mirror surface, if only because if he suddenly wakes up and sees his reflection, he can be very frightened.

• To the south - it ensures the stability of reputation.
• To the east - sleep calmer.
• To the southeast - contributes to the achievement of goals, strengthens perseverance.
• To the north - activates the development of intuition.
• To the northeast - strengthens the thought processes.
• To the northwest - it attracts friends.
• To the west - promotes the appearance of offspring and strengthens health.

Bed in a small bedroom

The rooms in standard apartment layouts do not differ in size, but the bedroom can sometimes be very narrow. Therefore, there is often the question of how to properly place the bed in a small bedroom, where to arrange all the other necessary furniture:

• Place for relaxation should be equipped along a smaller wall. Often in small rooms make niches or alcoves, in which many arrange a bed. But in such small spaces, as a rule, air circulates badly, so a person there can feel a lack of oxygen. In view of this, it is not recommended to place a bed in the niche - it is better to install a wardrobe there.
• Sleeping furniture can be placed diagonally, with a headboard in the corner. This solution looks original and correct considering the size of the room. So, the liberated corner can be decorated with flowers.
• Furniture in bedrooms of small size should be functional, without any extra decorative elements.

Important! To visually expand the space for the walls, it will be more appropriate to choose a light finish. Dark colors and bulky furniture is not recommended - in such a bedroom you will not be able to fully relax.

Technology near the bed

Experts say that things like laptops, tablets, televisions are superfluous for a bedroom. This room is intended for sleeping and rest. And the presence of a laptop distracts and does not contribute to sleep, forcing to spend a lot of time on the network, although this time it would be more useful to spend to sleep.

Important! Studies have shown that the presence of a television near the bed contributes to a deterioration in the quality of sleep, a person sleeps much less than what is laid, because of what does not get enough sleep. In turn, the lack of a healthy sleep can lead to poor health.

Therefore, though a TV, laptop or tablet - things are modern and many necessary, it is better to remove them from the bedroom, taking care of your health.

In fact, it is not so important what rules you will be guided in solving the problem of how to correctly place a bed in the bedroom. The main thing is that you remember the common sense when organizing the space of this very important room.
