Cozy & Relaxing Living Room
Finding
a sanctuary in our modern world isn't always easy. Many of us
work at home, or take work home from the office. Lots of us share spaces with
significant others or family members, so turning down the volume of life at
home isn't always easy. To create a place to unwind, you must eliminate
the stuck energy, otherwise known as clutter, so
that your mind and body can feel at ease and fully release the stresses of the
day.
Living
rooms are considered a common space to relax and rejuvenate.
Therefore, it should be clutter-free, organized, clean and inviting. You can
easily create a place of joy, comfort, relaxation and rejuvenation by applying
these very simple and practical Feng Shui enhancements to your
living room:
1. Declutter - Clutter
is stuck energy, get rid of it! Declutter your living room to
increase and enhance the flow of positive energy, hence relaxation. Remove all
items that only take up space in your living room without adding any value, static pleasure or functionality. There is no
need for too many lamps, sofa, chairs, tables, arts, plants, etc., after all,
it’s a living room, not a furniture showroom! Plus, less is always more!
2. Find a good view - If
you have a view of your garden, trees and nature, leave your blinds or curtains
open to bring that vibrant energy inside.
3. Appeal to your senses – Choose
colors, fabrics and styles that bring you comfort, joy and happiness.
Avoid busy fabric patterns, they generates unsettling energy!
4.
Add more
nature - Nature is the ultimate relaxation nirvana. Add
plants, fresh flowers and bring nature into your living room (keep in mind that
balance is the key here, you don’t want to create a garden in your living
room). Remove dying and dead plants from your living room and
any other areas of your house too. They generate negative energy and not good
for your physical health or emotional well-being.
5.
Rearrange
your furniture – Furniture are not permanent fixtures and
can be easily rearranged. Move them around to increase the flow of positive
energy. While you are at it, get rid of cracked and broken furniture, lamps,
smelly rugs, etc.
6. Clean Your Living Room –
Make a habit to keep your living room clean and that includes windows, shades,
lamps, rugs, etc.
Put your self-love hat
on and let go of all the items that have no purpose or
benefits being in your living room whatsoever. Just because you have them, it
doesn’t mean that you have to use or keep them. Sell, recycle, donate, or gift
friends and family if they need or want them.
Lastly, have fun with the process and
make a habit of revitalizing your living room at least once or twice a year!
