15 Golden Fengshui Tips for
the Home
"Master Lynn Yap's written

01) There should be no shoes or
slippers lying around outside the main door of every house. Remove
it if you can. Allow that space at the main door to be free and
clear. Now, allow me to tell you why. The chi (energy) rides with
the wind and will collect all the smell of those shoes and slippers
into your house causing sickness. These chi then travels about in
your house looking for water to stay but if there are no water
fountains or fish tanks, then the chi will be disperse by
wind.
02) There should be no television sets
in your bedrooms: If you cannot get rid of that habit then after
watching the televison programmes, cover it with a plastic table
cloth. Remember it has to be plastic and not simply
cloth.
03) There should be no mirrors
opposite your bed or at the side of your bed. Mirrors opposite the
bed can attract a third party to the relationship. Therefore, do
not place mirrors anywhere you like and especially in your
bedroom.
04) There should not be a dinning
table opposite your altar table. Some people are still not aware of
this concept and still have that in their dinning room. Shift the
dinning table.
05) If you have a fish tank in your
house, be careful. A fish tank placed correctly can bring about
greater fortune as you will tap on the "Divine Water Dragon's Den".
But if you tap wrongly, it can cause you to have lawsuits,
bankrupcy, work pressure, troubles and problems. If you noticed any
of these after placing the fish tank for approximately four months,
shift your fish tank to another location. For more details, buy my
101 Fengshui Book.
06) In your kitchen, ensure that
opposite your stove there is no refrigerator, washing machine, wash
basin and toilet. The fire and water crash causing family members
to have disagreements. The fengshui solution ? Remove one of
them.
07) Try not to allow children to
sleep on mattresses on the floor. Yes, this allows young children
not to fall off beds but it also causes young children to fall sick
frequently. The reason is: chi is not able to flow underneath the
bed. Ideally, chi should circulate around the mattress where our
children sleeps to allow them to be healthy.
08 ) For young children, try to have
their back to the wall when they write. It is important there
should be a solid wall behind a children's writing table. This
allows the child to have support so that he can sit there and study
longer rather than for only half an hour and then they tend to move
about because there is no solid wall behind their back. Adjust your
writing table.
09) Do not allow children to sleep
on double decker beds even if it means saving space. The child
sleeping underneath the double decker bed will not have "fresh chi"
and so his health might be weak. But if due to space constraints,
then monitor your child's health if not add in a metal 6 rods
windchime to break up the "stale chi" around his bed.
10) Your bed should always have a
solid wall behind you. This is important if you wish to have a good
rest. A solid wall simply means that you can go into deeper sleep
and therefore enabling you to have good rest so that when you wake
up in the morning, you will feel fresh and well rested. This also
allows you to be able to concentrate on your work
better.
11) There should be no beam on top
of your bed, your stove, your sofa sets or the altar table. The
beam above causes chi to be pressured thus enabling you to have
pressures in life. Therefore, don't place furnitures underneath it
or alternatively level the beam. But make sure if you choose the
latter, it is important that you have enough height for that
space.
12) If you have a lot of work
pressure, maybe it's the marble table that you have in your dinning
room that causes you to have those problems. Remove that marble
table and change to a wooden one or alternatively live with that
work pressure !
13) If your child usually falls sick
in that bedroom: Then either change them to another bedroom or
simply hang a six rod metal windchime as the metal element will
break all the earth energies in that room. After hanging, if the
wind could not do the job for you then you will have to "chime" it
yourself and then watch for the good results.
14) Do not use a red sofa set: The
colour red represent the element of fire. And for fengshui, some
places simply cannot have the colour red in that sector. For
example : the wealth area or some other sectors which without a
fengshui check would be unable to tell you where it is. A red sofa
sets gives rise to heavy work pressure, troubles and obstacles.
Most people simply accept that life is like that without realising
that THAT is caused by the bad fengshui of that red sofa ! Fengshui
Solution ? Change the colour of your sofa.
15) Always open your bedroom windows
at least once 20 minutes a day to allow fresh chi to come in - Why
should we do it ? We do this so that it allows fresh new chi from
outside to come into your bedroom, if not you will be sleeping with
stale chi every night. And if that happens, then how can you expect
your life to bring in more good fortune to come to you ? So open
that window and never mind if dusts comes in ! The great good
fortune that you can have will far exceeds the time you take to
clean off the dust ! Trust me.
