Feng Shui is an ancient discipline which shifts the chi (life force energy) in your home to improve your life. Children are indeed a blessing and add joy to one's household. In ancient times, a family was regarded as incomplete without children. Many methods were utilized so that couples could be successful in their bids for children. However, like many young things, children can get out of hand sometimes.
Applying Feng Shui can help you enhance your relationship with your children, understanding their needs and so strengthening family ties. If you wish to enhance your relationship with your children, sleep with your head pointed at your Nien Yin direction. You can find this direction using your Kua number Sleeping in this position will help bring you closer to your children and strengthen family ties.
If you have been trying for children or your offspring are getting out of hand, check if there is any offending man-made structure that is sending out harmful poison arrows towards your main door. To boost up romance, play smart with lighting. Yellow, white and red lights are just appropriate to set the mood for romance.
Use soft romantic shades in your room like pink. Ideally windows should have direct natural light.
According to the 8 Life Aspirations, children and descendants are governed by West. The element of West is Small Metal and the colors are Gold, Silver and White. Metal is produced by Earth and is destroyed by Fire. Avoid having any major Fire or Water element in this section of your home.
If you wish to enhance your relationship with your children, sleep with your head pointed at your Nien Yin direction.
You can find this direction using your Kua number Sleeping in this position will help bring you closer to your children and strengthen family ties.
Add trees, plants or upward lighting to raise energy. Plants are signs of life, but they must be kept healthy, dead or dying plants or even dead leaves are bad Feng Shui, as they represent death and decay.
Clear your clutter. Not just the obvious junk lying around, but also old books/CDs/DVDs that you don't like anymore, old clothes that are too big/too small, stuff that's accumulated in random drawers/closets. Even your garage should be a tidy place to store things, not a mass of boxes and random stuff.
Don't make your house a storehouse of old useless things. Maintain cleanliness and throw away what is not required or what has become obsolete.
Its important to make way for proper ventilation so that old energy can find space to go out so as to let new fresh positive energy get in. There is a need for some relocation of furniture. Even if you move your furniture just by an inch or so, it will generate positive energy.
If the West section is missing in your home, you can install a bright light or a mirror to partially remedy this problem. You can also activate the West section of your bedroom as well.
Energize the East section of your home. East represents Health and Longevity - the colour of East is dark green and the element is wood.
If the East section of your home is located in the living room, dining room or a room that is not used as a bedroom, place some live potted plants or furniture made of real wood to activate the corner.
Water is good in the wealth areas of a home, but never in the bedroom. Add fountains to increase the flow of Yang energy or a fish tank for a double bonus of Feng Shui, water plus a living animal is excellent Feng Shui. To counter a large, imposing fireplace, place a picture of a waterfall directly above the fireplace, or put a fountain next to it.

I thought to myself that these were the best words a person could ever want to hear as a romantic Palm Springs weekend getaway is just beginning. After a hard day at work, and driving through the rainy desert evening listening to the local 80s radio station, I told myself that the skies over Palm Springs cleared for a reason. The skies allowed the hypnotic blinking lights on the massive windmills along the freeway to perpetually flash their alien Morse code saying one simple word loud and clear: R-E-L-A-X.Nestled within walking distance from the main drag in idyllic Palm Springs and very near the San Jacinto Mountains is an upscale Spanish mission that is easy to get...
