The advancement of technology has brought about many changes in the modern lifestyle. And with it, the desire for something better grows on. Earlier what was considered a necessity is now a statement of luxury and class. And modern day bathrooms are also not untouched from this. This is because our bathrooms offer a private sanctuary where we can be alone with our thoughts, relax and unburden all the negativity.
But did you know that there are certain elements that contribute to that perfect bathroom experience? A proper Feng Shui bathroom encourages both the purification and renewal of the body, and is a wonderful place to release all that is unwanted in your life. With a few careful tips, you can easily transform your bathroom into a symbol of vitality that will help you in letting go of everything that no longer serves you. Here are some helpful tips:
The goal of Feng Shui is to invite into our front door Chi (Energy) and encourage it to spread evenly around the home. Drains and openings are the areas from where the Chi can escape, and bathrooms have lots of them. Keeping the bathroom door closed and toilet seat down minimizes the loss of energy. To further minimize the loss of energy, make the toilet as inconspicuous as possible. In fact, the best solution is to have the toilet separate from the bathroom.
Mirrors are highly recommended as they speed up and circulate energy. However, to avoid multiplying the dirty energy, make sure that a large mirror is not reflecting the toilet.
To energize the bathrooms; invite fresh air and sunlight in with windows and skylight. The fresh air helps dry out the bathroom, which tends to become damp and musty. If you do not have a window, open the bathroom door for a few minutes to air it out. Also, make sure that the toilet seat is down.

Lush green plants help freshen up the air and your spirit, and suppress the bad energy.

By following these simple recommendations, you can make your personal space into a personal sanctuary where you can unwind after a long day at work.
