Would you like to enhance your love life with Feng Shui? Perhaps you’re planning a romantic at-home rendezvous this Valentine’s Day, and you’d like to create the best atmosphere for intimacy. You can use Feng Shui to turn your bedroom into a hot spot more luxurious than a four-star romantic getaway hotel.
1. Set the mood with the right colors. Red accents add fire to a room, ensuring a passionate ambiance. Just be sure not to overdue the red in the bedroom as it can lead to arguments.
2. Let the air (and chi) circulate. The moment you enter your bedroom sanctuary, you should begin to feel relaxed and romantic. Clear away clutter and open windows (if weather permits) or use an air purifier to keep the air clear. Consider placing a bowl of fresh fruit, such as grapes and strawberries, near the bed.
3. Use scents. You may want to employ some aphrodisiac scents in the air. Fragrances should be subtle, not overpowering. Pure essential oils work best. Some aphrodisiacs for both men and women include:
- Licorice
- Sandalwood
- Cucumber
- Jasmine
- Vanilla
4. Appropriate lightingYour bedroom lights should be on a dimmer switch, permitting you to set the mood. Better yet, a few natural, non-toxic candles (such as those made from soy or beeswax) create the perfect lighting for a romantic mood.
