Simple Ways to Use Feng Shui for a Happier Home

Feng shui factors in the chi, or energy, of a room.

1. Clear away clutter. Excessive clutter can impede the flow of energy in your home.

2. Open up the traffic flow. Choose furniture arrangements that allow for open pathways into and around rooms. 

3. Design a welcoming entryway. The reaction that you have when entering your house is the energy you're going to bring into the rest of the home

4. Bring in plants. Plants provide a literal connection to nature within our homes, lending energy and freshness. 

5. Utilize the command position. The command position refers to where a piece of furniture is located in relation to the door.

6. Create balance with color. Depending on the shade, color can ground or uplift a room. Keep darker colors lower to the floor to provide a solid foundation. Then apply light colors on walls and ceilings for a balanced, open effect.
