Now that we have looked at how to Feng Shui a bedroom<\/a>, let\u2019s look at considerations to take when creating our bathroom. When it comes to designing our bathrooms, sometimes we don\u2019t put as much effort into it as we should. When you think about it, we actually spend quite a bit of time in there and as a result, we should put some time into making sure we decorate it the right way. If you want to have your bathroom be as relaxing as possible, try adhering to the guidelines of Feng Shui, the Chinese system for harmonizing everything with its environment. Here are 7 helpful tips for ensuring your bathroom\u2019s Feng Shui is as good as possible.<\/p>\n

1. Keep It Fresh<\/h2>\n

Freshness is key when it comes to the bathroom, for obvious reasons. If your bathroom is full of dirty towels and a dirty environment, it will go a long way in destroying the Feng Shui of the room. This also goes for the air in the room, so keeping a window open or a fan on can help out in a major way in the battle to keep your bathroom as fresh and as clean as possible.<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Balance The Elements<\/h2>\n

In Feng Shui, balance is the name of the game. We want to make sure that the five elements (water, earth, metal, wood, and fire) are all represented in each room. You don\u2019t want one element dominating any others, especially in a room that is as small as a bathroom. There are a lot of things in play that can help you balance the elements such as what colors you chose for the wall, the artwork, the decor and more.<\/span><\/p>\n

3. Include Plants<\/h2>\n

Purification and renewal are two of the major themes that come into play in your bathroom. What better way to reflect those two themes than to include some gorgeous live plants in your bathroom. These plants will not only purify the air and help keep your bathroom fresh, but they also look wonderful in the process. Like the bedroom, there are many who think plants in the bathroom are bad Feng Shui. However, as long as they fit with the decor and are not too plentiful, they can provide a boost to the positive energy of your bathroom. While you don\u2019t want the bathroom to be stuffed full of plants, a strategically placed plant or two can make a wonderful addition to any bathroom.<\/span><\/p>\n

4. Strategically Place a Mirror<\/h2>\n

In a bathroom, having a mirror is almost as important as having a toilet and a sink. Many of us get ready in the bathroom, which makes a mirror necessary. While most people have a mirror over top of the sink, another smart place to have a mirror is on the bathroom door to speed up and reflect energy. Under Feng Shui, this makes the bathroom \u201cdisappear.\u201d The chi from the room bounces into other rooms throughout the home. Mirrors also deflect bad energy. However, you should make sure that a large mirror isn\u2019t reflecting a toilet seat, as that is seen as a negative according to the system of Feng Shui.<\/span><\/p>\n
