Feel scattered? Blame Your Headboard

August 6, 2019 by @elioverbey

Do you ever feel scattered? Shaky? Powerless? Or ungrounded? It could have something to do with the headboard on your bed. The feelings you have are related to your surroundings. That may sound crazy to you right now, stick with me and find out why.

Purpose of the headboard

The purpose of having a headboard is to create stability, personal power, and a feeling of being grounded in the world.

The headboard should be attached to the bed and placed against the wall. I have seen headboards away from the wall from a few inches to several feet creating a feeling of being scattered and having trouble being organized for the person who sleeps there.

What kind of headboard is best?

A solid wooden headboard is best to support stability, personal power, and a feeling of being grounded in the world. That means no headboards with slats or open spaces that allow you to see the wall behind the headboard.

Slats or open spaces that allow you to see the wall behind the headboard do not give you the energetic strength you need to rejuvenate yourself as you sleep.

A metal headboard is weaker than a wooden headboard and does not support the qualities you need from your headboard.

Creative headboards

You can make a wooden headboard for your bed and add design by carving shapes into it, painting it a color to match your decor, or cover it with fabric. All these headboards mentioned have a solid wood foundation, which is what you need.

A bookcase headboard is possible to use if it meets the criteria mentioned above:

  • It is made of wood  
  • Attached to the bed
  • Against the wall. If it is heavy is should be attached to the wall also.
  • No open spaces to see the wall. If the bookcase has a solid back it could work.
  • You can use the bookcase to showcase a few things of importance to you. Be careful not to fill it up with too much stuff or you will defeat the purpose of having a headboard.

A headboard is important to help you create the energy of stability, personal power, and feeling grounded in the world.

Will Feng Shui In A Bedroom Help Cure Insomnia?

June 17, 2019 by @elioverbey

Margie was an emergency room nurse. She knew she was making a difference, like the time she held a woman’s hand that was terrified because she was traveling, away from home and came into the emergency room hemorrhaging. Margie was calm, held the woman’s hand, wiped away her tears, and talked with the woman until she was calm.

Margie called me for help. She had was not sleeping through the night. Often, she would wake up to go to the bathroom, get back in bed only to toss and turn. Her sleeplessness was beginning to cause health problems.

sleep at last

There are many factors that contribute to insomnia and the design of your surroundings is one of the contributors. If you get everything else taken care of and you do not address the energy of your surroundings you will still have insomnia problems.

The goal of Feng Shui is to keep the energy flowing through your surroundings. When that happens you are healthy, happy, and prosperous.

There are many design details in a bedroom that impact sleep. These are 3 levels of design to watch for:

Clutter

If your room has too much furniture or the furniture is too big for the space the energy cannot flow and the result is clutter, slow moving energy which can lead to sleep problems.

Is the room disorganized, your stuff is everywhere – on top of the dresser, on the floor, drawers are crammed full, the closet is stuffed, the nightstand is messy, and books are stacked on the floor waiting to be read. This in some

Are there clothes scattered around your bedroom? These fit into the clutter category and can impact your ability to get a good night’s sleep.

Color

Bedroom colors should be soothing to the soul. Soothing colors are subtle shades of green, blue, tan, and pink which help to calm the nervous system, helping to reduce insomnia.

 Reds, oranges, and yellows excite the nervous system and make sleep more difficult. 

You could paint your bedroom a neutral color and add soothing accents as pillows, bedspread, and artwork.

Design Details

Where the bedroom located in the home, visible beams, placement of the bed, and storage under the bed all impact insomnia.

A bedroom towards the back of the house, away from the street is the quietest and most relaxing for your nervous system.

Many bedrooms have visible beams on the ceiling as design features. Energetically, the beam puts heavy pressure on whatever is beneath it. If your bed is under a beam, you may find it difficult to sleep through the night.

The ideal placement of the bed is to have the head of the bed against a wall that is facing the door and furthest from the door, allowing you to see the door while lying in bed. This allows your nervous system to completely relax, making it easier to fall asleep and stay asleep.

The goal of Feng Shui is to keep the energy flowing through your space. Energy flows around your surroundings even while you sleep. It is best to have nothing under your bed so the energy can flow freely and help rejuvenate you as you sleep.

I have worked with people that have incorporated these 3 levels of design to find they got a full night’s sleep.

Margie had a beam in her bedroom above her bed. The pressure of the beam was across the middle of her body, causing discomfort and adding to her insomnia. She did not have her bed in the ideal placement either, another design detail that can contribute to sleeplessness. When she moved her bed to the ideal placement she was no longer under the beam. She called to tell me after those Feng Shui adjustments she was sleeping through the night.

5 Feng Shui Bedroom Tips to Improve Rest, Relaxation and Romance

October 31, 2017 by @elioverbey

Recently, I was working on a Feng Shui consultation with a client.  As I entered the clients home, I was taken aback. The entry to the home was clean, well-lit with flourishing greenery. As we walked around the home I was entranced by the beauty in each room. The décor was stunning, from the wall and accessory colors, the finely crafted furniture to the gorgeous art. Sculptures, paintings and plants where strategically placed throughout the house.  Up to that point the home had great flow, yet the client seemed uneasy and nervous. I had no idea what I would find as we entered the master bedroom.

Everything was revealed the moment we set foot into the master. As I entered I noticed this room was the opposite of the rest of the house. No window coverings, no color, no art and no plants. It was barren. We went from stunning beauty to emptiness.  Two walls had large windows and no window coverings, the top of the dresser was empty, the walls, carpet and bed were white, no art or décor to be found anywhere. There was no flow in this room. A part of her life was not in flow and this is where it showed up. There was a dog cushion in one corner of the room which proved to be the missing clue to her situation. [Read more…]

How DoesYour Bed Effect Your Health?

March 26, 2013 by @elioverbey

Question:

Does where I place my bed in my bedroom have anything to do with my health?

Answer:

Yes, the placement of your bed affects your health in many ways. If your bed is improperly placed you may experience one or more of these symptoms:

  • Headaches including migraines
  • Anger orange bedroom
  • Restless sleep
  • Anxiety
  • Heart trouble
  • Illness along the midline of the body, digestion, nose, mouth, reproductive organs etc.
  • Accident prone
  • Trouble maintaining intimacy
  • Narrow point of view
  • Chronic illness

I worked with a client once that had her bed on the same wall as the door and she had trouble sleeping through the night. She tossed and turned all night long.  She could not relax enough because she was too close to the door and her body could not fully rest. It was always on alert which caused her to be a light sleeper at best.

The best placement of the bed in a bedroom for good health is:

  • the furthest from the door without being in direct line with the door, called command position
  • facing the door so you can see the door while you are in bed
  • any other bed placement will be problematic to your health, like a bed on the same wall as the door, a bed in direct line with the door, or a bed that does not have at least the head or one side against a wall.

Here are other bed tips that will ensure good health in body, mind and spirit:   

  1. Make sure to keep the space under your bed clear, yes, nothing stored under there. The air needs to flow around your bed to rejuvenate you as you sleep. Stuff under the bed slows that process down and can rob you of your vitality.
  2. Do not use electric blankets because they create electromagnetic fields that can be harmful to your health. The blankets send electromagnetic current through even when they are turned off. They need to be unplugged or better, removed from the bed. Have a Feng Shui practitioner use their gauss meter to give you  a reading, you will be surprised.
  3. Make sure the headboard is solidly attached to the bed and against the wall. This creates a foundation for support while you sleep and is symbolic for support in the rest of your life too.
  4. All parts of the bed should be in good condition.The frame, the box springs, and the mattress. Don't forget all the bedding too. The pillows, blankets, sheets, mattress cover, and comforter.
  5. Water beds and air beds do not have the strong foundation and support for the individual. There could be problems with stability and ability to take action. A traditional mattress is best.

Take a moment to reflect on the health of your mind, body and spirit. Next look at your bed and determine what needs repair, cleaning or moving and make an action plan. Remember your bed is one key to your good health and if you place it right and take care of it, it will take care of you.
