Feng Shui is essentially Chinese philosophy coupled with space planning and it is believed to bring fortune, wealth, & prosperity. Even if you are a non-believer, these tips are easy and practical ways to make your space feel homey and organised.

Feng Shui is all about harmony, good vibes, and positivity, all coveted features for a home. While Feng Shui evolves based on season, there are consistent and practical tips that will work wonders for your home.

Try some of these Feng Shui-approved tips to formulate a stylish and functional interior.

1 Focus on Your Front

The main entrance of your home plays a major role in determining the overall vibe of your space. According to experts, main entrances with prominent colours, lighting, and plants attract positive energy into the home. An added bonus is that attractive entrances almost always help increase the resale value of your home!

2 Let Go of the Unnecessary

Getting rid of redundant objects and belongings or ones that hold bad memories is a way of cleaning up your space of bad energy while making sure your home isn’t cluttered. Cleaning up your home also allows for more space for good Feng Shui, or if you’re a non-believer, good looking furniture and decor!

3 Find Your Roots

We’ve said it countless times, and we’ll say it again: invest in indoor plants! From cooling down your space to reducing stress and providing fresh air, plants are beneficial for the home. They are also known to promote good Feng Shui in any space, so head on out and bring some greenery home.

4 Keep Your Foyer Clear

The foyer is the entrance of your home so it needs to be clear and unobstructed for a positive energy flow, and to prevent stubbed toes! So, avoid leaving piles of shoes, bills, and jackets at the entrance. Instead, organise your foyer by incorporating essential storage spaces. This will not only bring in good energy, but keep the entrance of your home clean and organised.

5 Cosy it Up

Who knew making your home cosy is a good way to bring in good Feng Shui? Turn your home into a warm and inviting escape by adding softer and warmer elements like rugs, throws, warm hues, and comfortable chairs amongst harder elements like steel, metallic, and sharp edges. What this does is give the space a more nurturing vibe that is cosy and comfortable.

6 Leave Some Breathing Space

An important rule when it comes to decorating and Feng Shui is to not over-decorate or clutter your home. Always ensure that there is space to manoeuvre around your rooms, don’t block doors and entryways, and make sure to allow natural light in. This is vital in ensuring that your home allows energy flow (and light!) while making sure that your space is airy and inviting.

7 Make Memories and Flaunt It

Your home is your personal space, so make it seem like one and not like an Ikea showroom. Introduce décor and pictures that are personal to you and that reflect good memories. This encourages positive energy because who doesn’t want to look at photos and memorabilia from positive experiences?
