How to Arrange Your Environment to Maximize the Best Organic Energy Flow for Your Newborn
During a cold rainy day, there is no such pleasure greater than being cozy at home in a warm environment. In the last two days, I have been enjoying the rapture of preparing for my son's future, devoting time in front of my sewing machine. I had already cut up an organic cotton flannel twin-size flat bed sheet into multiple squares of cloths. The process is quite exhilarating as I put my creative arts skills to use for something so practical. The green baby or green nursery movement is well under way. Feng shui has much to do with this explosion of interest in such a field. Oftentimes, we see feng shui for adults: career, finances, home improvement, interior decorating, relationships. You name it. The feng shui of the future is a place for creativity, projects, children, reflection and more. By the time you finish reading this article, you will walk away with practical tips that is a marriage between feng shui and the eco baby movement.
The feng shui direction linked to creativity, children, and the future is the West. Much of the spearheading for green products have originated in the West. To the west of China, the motherland of feng shui, is Tibet. The Chinese call Tibet the “Treasure of the West.” Treasures consist of precious metals. Metal often has a reflective surface. That is why the West is also a place of reflection. In fact, even Tibet has been renown for its reflective meditative practices around the world. Even more West of Tibet is of course Europe and the United States, which is already spearheading a lot of green products and regulations. With the advent of green parents of course brings the green or eco baby movement and products. The West is also related to the future, because that is the direction where the sun heads toward each day. So of course, when we think of the future, we also think about who is going to be around and nowadays we also think of what is going to be around us. The future of our planet may very well lay in the hands of our green movement or “green revolution.”
To bring this more local, look immediately in your own home and nursery. Identify which part of your home and which part of your nursery is West. Use a compass to identify the sector of your home or nursery that falls within these coordinates. Ideally, it would be best for the westernmost part of your home to be where you design your nursery. West is not as cold as the north, nor as sunny as the south, and definitely out of the rising sun in the east. West is definitely a good place to go internal and rest. Sleep is what babies need a lot of in the first couple of years. So placing your green nursery in the west part of your home is a good idea.
The westernmost part of your green nursery can be where your baby sleeps. Ensure that you have the most baby-gentle products in the nursery. Nowadays, you can access natural ecological paints, eco-friendly carpets, and non-stained wooden blinds. You have much from which to choose. Even so, adhere to the baby-safe standards of keeping your crib away from the windows. Lending from feng shui, a solid headboard and footboard for the baby will also help the baby feel secure and supported. Keep the crib in view of the open door. To stem energy flow rushing in from the door, place a decorating carpet on the floor and hang a feng shui crystal from the ceiling between the crib and the door. This will help slow down and redistribute the energy flow.
Of course, finding a place in your home and in your nursery for your baby is just the first step.
