Feng Shui For Kids or How to help your children grow and develop in a positive way and enhance family harmony
Did you know that there is negative stimulation in the home that affects your child‘s behaviour, his health and even his grades? This energy is invisible for the eyes, but very powerful and your child can feel it. Feng Shui, which is an ancient art and science developed over 3,000 years ago in China, comes here to help. It is based on knowledge about how to balance the energies of any given space to assure the health and good fortune for people inhabiting it.
"Feng" means "wind" and "shui" means "water". In Chinese culture gentle wind and clear water have always been associated with good harvest and good health. Feng Shui is based on the Taoist vision and understanding of nature, particularly on the idea that the land is alive and filled with Chi, or energy.
The way we decorate children's spaces and bedrooms and the way we distribute the furniture should be done by following the Feng Shui principles in order to achieve harmony and help your children feel comfortable in that space.
One first important aspect to think about when it comes to a child's room is the colours for walls and the decoration in general. According to feng shui, a child's room should be in earth colours such as light oranges, terracotta or warm yellows. These colours would make them feel safe. Another feng shui colour combination is pastel green and light violet, which will have a calming and soothing effect on your little one.
Colours that are cold, such as blue or grey shades should never predominate in a child's room, since they could bring them insecurity feelings. It is also important to remark that too bright colours are not recommended for a child's bedroom. If your child is very active, you should balance this through the colours you choose for his bedroom; they should be light and in pastel shades. On the other hand, if your child is quiet, you should choose warm orange or yellow colours which would balance his personality.
As with all bedrooms, when it comes to furniture placement, the bed position is very important... Read more
