Feng Shui feminine side of the bed
Lately, my world has been all about balance. Learning the art of balancing my feminine side as well as my masculine side and everything in between. I've recently taken on daily balancing my chakras for alignment and healing in the body. It has had such an impact on my life, I've been feeling the call to balance all areas of my life.
Feng Shui is always a great guide for understanding how to balance the masculine and feminine energy in the home, especially in the bedroom.
Balancing feminine and masculine energy in the bedroom is key to creating a harmonious and inviting space that nurtures love and intimacy. Your bedroom should reflect a blend of softness and strength—a place where both energies coexist beautifully.
Feminine energy is all about warmth, comfort, and creativity, which can be incorporated with plush textures, soft lighting, and personal touches like fresh flowers or sentimental decor. Masculine energy brings structure and stability, achieved through clean lines, organized spaces, and grounding elements like earthy tones or wooden accents. Together, these energies create a balanced environment that fosters connection and passion.
Interestingly, even the side of the bed you sleep on can play a role in love energy. In feng shui, the left side of the bed is considered the "masculine side," representing action, giving, and strength, while the right side is the "feminine side," embodying receiving, intuition, and nurturing.
What side of the bed should you sleep on to attract harmony in love?
If you’re a woman seeking to attract love, consider sleeping on the right side to embrace your feminine energy. For men, sleeping on the left side can align with their masculine essence. Regardless, maintaining balance in your bedroom design and sleeping arrangement sets the stage for deeper love and harmony in your relationships.
I spent some time this weekend shopping at Round Top Antique Show. Every time I go to Round Top, I come home with an appreciation for antiques, ruffles, wood, fabrics, etc. It's like my modern glamour taste just leaves me and a more rustic glamour fills my mind. It led me to really think about decorating with balance. Thinking of ways to incorporate more of the rustic country vibe to an otherwise modern home.
As I have been working on balancing my masculine and feminine energy in my life, my business and my body, I also feel the need to update my sanctuary with balance. If the bedroom isn't in harmony, we may be lacking in one area or another. Feminine aspects: sleep, romance, bliss, rest, beauty. Masculine: confidence, organization, meditation and clarity are fundamental essentials for living your best.
Is your bedroom balanced in a way that supports all of these life functions?
If not, you may want to try and add some of these enhancements to your bedroom and see if they help to harmonize your sanctuary.
FEMININE ENHANCEMENTS: soft pillows, luxurious bedding and sheets, candles, soft lighting, flowers.
MASCULINE ENHANCEMENTS: plenty of storage, sitting area, black out drapes, clean tabletops, mirrors and artwork.
