If you keep any images on the wall or on dressing table, it should not be some sad or lonely image. Preferably keep pictures of loving couples. The ideal photograph would be the one with you and your spouse. Also choose images of things you want to see happening in your life. It is strongly believed that images seen just before going to sleep and immediately after getting up in the morning stay in the subconscious mind and they soon turn into reality.

Mugdha Patki, a Feng Shui master says, “It is best to avoid mirrors in the bedroom especially if it reflects the bed.” Experts declare that if one has a mirror in the bed room and it is not possible to move it away due to various reasons, then, it is best to cover the mirror with a curtain or a drape. Even television glass or any other highly polished surface that reflects the couple in bed can hamper a blissful, harmonious life and sexual relationship.
8. It is better to keep the windows open (unless you have an air-conditioner) and count yourself lucky if you get enough breeze flowing into your bedroom. Use a good quality air-purifier to keep the air fresh and full of oxygen. Stale, polluted or bad quality of air can destroy good Feng shui energy.
