If there’s one room in your home that will benefit from feng shui, it’s the bedroom. Feng shui, the traditional Chinese practice of creating balance and harmony in the home, has been employed for thousands of years. And while you may be skeptical towards its claims to bring you wealth, luck, and happiness, there’s no denying that arranging your home according to its tenets can make it look better, more functional, and cohesive. Here are a few basic feng shui tips that you can easily incorporate into your bedroom today:
Put your bed in a command position
In feng shui, the command or commanding position refers to a space in the room where you feel most empowered. From that place, you have a clear view of the entire room, as well as the door. It’s said that placing your bed in the command position can make you feel more secure while in it, and thus be able to rest better.
While you should have a clear view of the door, though, you should never place your bed in such a way that your feet point directly out of it. This is known as the “coffin position”, which resembles how the dead are carried through open doors. Beds placed in this position can feel more vulnerable.
Arrange everything in pairs
Bedrooms are spaces where love and companionship are meant to blossom. In feng shui, pairs represent intimacy and togetherness. Even if you aren’t in a relationship, you can attract love into your life by presenting pairs in your bedroom. If you are, those feelings can also be amplified by having two of everything in the bedroom.

You should also outfit your bed as though two people will be sleeping in it instead of one. Endeavor to have 2 sets of pillows, even if you’re sleeping alone. It makes the bed look more complete and you’ll find yourself more comfortable in it.
Add meaningful accents that evoke all the senses
Feng shui also makes use of certain colors, textures, and scents to amplify certain energies and feelings. In a bedroom, you can pull these energies in with meaningful accents thoughtfully placed around the room.
Some of the best colors to use in a bedroom according to feng shui include off-white and white-adjacent shades, earthy and neutral tones similar to wood or skin, as well as hues that call nature to mind, such as blue, teal, and green.
When choosing fabrics and materials for your bedroom, go for ones that are soft, inviting, and sensual. Egyptian cotton, satin, and velvet are all great choices. These are comfortable to the touch and can add a bit of texture to the room, making it feel warmer and cozier.
Scents can also help dictate the room’s mood. Scented candles and essential oil diffusers can make your bedroom smell wonderful; here, you can employ aromatherapy and choose lavender for better sleep, rose, jasmine, and ylang-ylang for romance, or white tea, eucalyptus, pine for calmness and serenity.
