Feng
Shui in your Bedroom
 3.
Try this neat trick today while lying in bed.
Look
up! See anything unusual? Maybe an intrusive looking beam
staring right back at you?
As
long as the beam hangs above you (it doesnŐt matter exactly
where), itŐs going to be placing pressure on you. Imagine
trying to get some sleep with a 200 pound dwarf sitting on
your chest. DoesnŐt really paint the picture of a peaceful
nap, does it?
 Most
of us hardly have the luxury of moving the offending beam,
so the next best thing would be to move your bed. If like
me, you find this a little difficult due to space constraints,
try these tips. A well-known writer friend once tried and
now swears by crystals.
Many
other practitioners have also advocated using metal elements
tied in red string. The idea here being that the beam is symbolic
of wood and the red string burns the wood, while the metal
(coins) cuts the beam. This is a concept borrowed from the
productive and destructive cycle of the elements.
 When
you explore the Form School theories you will find that they
recommend an armchair like position. The high back of the
armchair acts as an instrument of support in theory.
In
similar fashion, a bed with a window behind it is said to
be unsupported. This could superimpose upon your everyday
life eventually. You may feel like youŐre not getting the
necessary backing, either from family, spouse or colleagues.
Many
have recommended simply closing the windows all together by
just drawing the curtains. Not only do I find this makes for
a very yin environment (what with no sunlight), it doesnŐt
REALLY work either.
 As
with the previous recommendations, the best solution would
of course be to move your bed. Ensure that there is a solid
wall behind the back of your bed now. However, where you find
that you just cannot move the bed, these tried and true tips
might help. Hang a symbolic picture of some mountains and
rolling hills behind your bed. This will increase the support
for your sleeping position. Another method would be to place
a Black Turtle figurine just behind your headboard.
