The child is growing up, and by the age of five or six, parents will have to organizing a work area in the children's room– places for homework, storage teaching aids, office supplies. The issue is serious and is being resolved not only from the point of view of a harmonious environment and maintaining comfort in the room.
The correct approach to organizing the workplace affects the child’s formation of neatness, perseverance, and composure. But first of all, you need to decide on the location of the desk in the room, taking into account whether it will be comfortable for the child to study in this particular corner, and what factors can affect the quality of classes and even the health of the little schoolchild.
1. Isolation of the workplace from the play area— a children’s desk can be placed behind a partition, or zones can be separated using a shelving unit, a screen, or even wallpaper different color. Toys, bright and unnecessary objects should be removed from the work area, as they distract the child’s attention and interfere with concentration.
2. Sufficient lighting- preferably natural. If this possibility is excluded, fluorescent lamps are used. The light should fall from the left for a right-handed child and vice versa: from the right if the child is left-handed. When practicing at night, there must be at least two light sources - otherwise vision problems cannot be avoided.
3. Posting tutorials and office supplies in the work area so that the child himself can easily take and put in place the items he needs. The table itself should have drawers, sections, cabinets, and open niches. It is better to store books and large folders on hanging shelves or in racks or pencil cases standing near the table.
Let's consider options for placing a desk in a children's room.
Desk near the window
If the room is narrow or small, then a children's desk is often placed near the window.
Pros:
- space saving (especially if the window sill is transformed into a tabletop);
- natural lighting for most of the day is a necessity, plus savings on sources and costs of artificial lighting;
- the ability to switch attention during long exercises, as well as vision training.
Minuses:
- too bright light and glare are harmful to vision. Not too thick curtains or a special film for windows will help.
— the presence of heating radiators or, conversely, possible drafts. The problem is solved by dampers on radiators and back wall at the table, fenced off from the heat source. It is easier to deal with drafts - you need to ventilate the room when the child takes a break from classes, the rest of the time the window should be closed.
— the view from the window often distracts the baby’s attention and interferes with activities. The same blinds or curtains will help here. We also organize five minutes of rest, after which the child will be able to concentrate and complete the task without being distracted.
Children's desk near the wall
If space in the room allows, it is very convenient to place a desk against the wall. This could be a corner table or a tabletop along part of the wall.
Pros:
— the ability to place hanging shelves on the wall, lesson schedules and daily routines.
— fewer distractions have a positive effect on the learning process and promote perseverance.
Minuses:
— insufficient natural light if the table is located against the far wall. We solve the problem with the help of a table lamp and take into account the need for an additional light source in the evening.
- a certain limitation of space and a constant look at the wall. To break up this monotony, we swap the schedule and routine, make minor rearrangements on the shelves in front of the table, i.e. you need to periodically diversify this space.
Table in the work area under the loft bed
Modern trends in furniture design are based on economical and rational use space. A compact version of children's furniture is a loft bed with a desk, which is located under the sleeping place, or where shelves with a table are adjacent to its side wall.
A children's desk in this version can be either a built-in or a pull-out element of cabinet furniture.
Pros:
— compactness of the workplace, mobility;
- opportunity to organize individual space for every child in the family.
Minuses:
— as the child grows up, such a compact table may become too small. The issue can be resolved by discussing the option of transforming furniture in advance with the manufacturer or supplier. Also, this minus can become a plus if there are two children in the family - as the youngest grows up, this workplace goes to him;
- the same limited space. If the student does not like such isolation, we solve the problem through periodic changes in the design of the office and other interior elements.
Even after everything is ready, and it seems to parents that the workplace is organized perfectly, they need to observe the child and correct any inconveniences that arise during classes: be it problems with lighting or the placement of little things that the little student needs.
It is also important to remember that success in acquiring new skills and knowledge also depends on the child’s mood, motivation, and most importantly, on the participation of parents in this new and at first very difficult process for the child.

Whatever field you lead, listen to Feng Shui recommendations for organizing your workplace. The ancient teaching is based on a simple common sense, its principles are understandable to people brought up in any culture, and do not contain anything magical. Proper organization Feng Shui workplace in the office– is to ensure harmony with nature and the free flow of cosmic energy Qi, which carries vitality. Such a room has a special atmosphere in which it is easy to find mutual language with clients and subordinates.
Feng Shui cabinet color
The color scheme of the office should set the mood for work - not irritate or tire. The walls are painted depending on the location of the office in the building. To enhance the influence of the elements, choose the following shades:
- if the workroom is located on the south side - green;
- in the north – white;
- on the west - yellow;
- in the east - gray-blue.
Color is especially important for the space near the front door. In order to quickly tune in to work, hang a talisman on its handle that attracts Yang energy - any transparent stone or a piece of mahogany.
Feng Shui of the office excludes indigo, cornflower blue, cobalt and turquoise colors for walls, because they relax and lead to apathy. Cold colors are not suitable for the office - it means a stop in business, a cessation of development, but a large number of bright colors (red, pink) are also not suitable, because... they will soon lead to energy depletion.
The best Feng Shui colors for office walls are:
- green (no shades of blue);
- grey;
- pale orange;
- light beige.
The brightness of a particular shade is selected depending on the natural lighting of the room: the less it is, the lighter the walls should be.
The colors of the walls should smoothly transition from one to another; one shade or another can be used to highlight any area of the office, sector, or part of the wall. Moderation and restraint general background set off by brighter interior items.
Rules for arranging furniture
The main rule feng shui office– furniture should be arranged so that you do not sit with your back to the door. For calm, focused work, it is important to see who is entering the room and what they are doing. Otherwise, you will constantly experience tension. If there are 2 doors in the room, position your workspace so that you can see both. The layout of the furniture should resemble the outline of the Bagua octagon (“great symbol” in Feng Shui).
It is better to place the table not opposite the door, but a little away from it - against the wall, which will give confidence to the person sitting with his back to it. If the table faces east or southeast, it will attract wealth and popularity. You cannot place it in front of a window that faces west, and sit with your back to the west. If there is no other option, hang a mirror opposite the window.
To ensure that your office space complies with Feng Shui, do not purchase the following furniture:
- unusual tables or irregular shapes with a large number of sharp corners, L- or U-shaped;
- cabinets with open shelves - they carry the negative energy of “sharp arrows”;
- bulky furniture that does not correspond to the size of the office.
It is best to sit at your desk in an office chair or on a chair with a comfortable backrest, so that you can sometimes lean back and give your back a rest.
Doctor's office
It is better if the practitioner's office is located next to the entrance door to the building. The workplace is placed as described in the previous chapter: to sit with your back to the wall. The size of the table should be such that the specialist does not “get lost” behind it and does not feel cramped.
Patient chair should be comfortable, and the energy of the office is conducive to dialogue. Snow-white walls in a doctor's office will not look boring. And if you add shades of purple colors to the decoration, it will be easier for patients to relax - this color is associated with healing, meditation and introspection.
Items that are important attributes of the doctor should occupy the main places in the favorable zones of the Bagua, for example, in the health zone (to your left). In the sector of success and glory, place things that stimulate work - certificates, diplomas of competition laureates, letters of gratitude confirming high level your professionalism and stimulating upward mobility.
Arrange your office so that when you are at your workplace, the background and all the objects around you are pleasant.
The success of the entire department depends on the work of the boss. That's why Feng Shui manager's office should be comfortable and at the same time strict and personable, but its atmosphere should not be overwhelming. A favorable environment in the workplace will bring success in your career.
Location
The chief's office should have a special strong energy, therefore it is better to place it in the northern part of the building: the north helps professional growth, the northwest - the ability to lead, and the northeast - the acquisition of knowledge. The worst option is to place the office in the west and southwest. This can lead to overload and reduced performance.
The Feng Shui director's office should not be located at the very end of the corridor. And if the boss works in the same office with his subordinates, his desk should be located as far as possible from the front door, otherwise his subordinates will control him.
Cabinet shape
The best shapes are square and non-elongated rectangle. It is recommended to divide the L-shaped room into 2 parts, for example, working and guest, in order to avoid the influence of Sha on working in the office staff.
Furniture arrangement according to Feng Shui
In addition to the desk, the boss’s office may have a conference table. According to Feng Shui, they are not connected in the form of the letter T, workplace location should be located away from the meeting area. It is better if the meeting table is round, oval or octagonal. The manager's chair should not be in the corner. According to Feng Shui, the triangle is a symbol of Fire, which can destroy health, success and prosperity.
If it is not possible to place the table in accordance with the cardinal directions, as required by Feng Shui, desired effect achieved by changing the color of the furniture or walls to a lighter one, for example, replacing the countertop with a white one.
The chief's office may contain cabinets, a sofa, armchairs for visitors, a coffee table and other office furniture, which is not recommended to be placed in straight lines along the walls. Properly design an office with a hairdryer-Shui will help with the Bagua form.
If the boss and subordinates have a common office, tables are placed in rows, then during work the employees’ views will be directed in one direction, which will lead to coherence and success of the company.
Feng Shui home office
The office is placed near the front door or a separate entrance is made from the street. The home office is more closely connected with the outside world, so it has more Yang energy. When registering, you must consider the following recommendations:
- deflect the “sharp arrows” of furniture corners with the help of mirrors;
- If the table is close to the door, place a low plant on its corner to protect against negative flow.
For greater focus on your work, paint your walls in neutral tones and use layered lighting. Luck, money, positive energy to your home office will bring the following items:
- an expensive vase made of metal, stone or porcelain;
- objects that enhance the element of Water - oval, round and metal products, for example, bells, an aquarium with fish;
- flowering plants.
To implement the plans, it is necessary to stimulate the eastern sector of the cabinet.
Paintings in the office
According to the teachings of Feng Shui, most suitable for an office paintings and illustrations, depicting the following:
- sea and any bodies of water;
- waterfall, rain;
- flowering meadow;
- open green field;
- boats or ships on the water.
They are placed above the desktop, in the negotiation area. If your work desk is located so that you are sitting facing the wall, hang on it a portrait of the person from whom you are taking an example, and if your back is not protected by the wall, it is better to hang a picture with a mountain landscape in the work area.
Paintings with negative energy, for example, depicting the following, are not suitable for classrooms and offices:
- straight road;
- desert;
- bare trees.
Feng Shui cardinal directions in the office
To arrange your office harmoniously, you need to draw up a floor plan, noting which side of the world the door and window are facing. Separately, a little larger, draw a Bagua octagon, which represents 8 sectors corresponding to compass directions. Apply Bagua to your office plan and you will see how to better distribute zones. Each of them is responsible for the following areas of life:
- south - for fame, fame and reputation;
- southeast - money, wealth;
- east - pleasure;
- northeast - friends;
- north – relatives;
- northwest – children;
- West – education;
- southwest – happiness, relationships.
Chi energy enters the room with other energies, which it captures along the way from all directions. Different sides According to Feng Shui, lights are associated with animals that give Qi the following characteristics:
- south – Red Phoenix – fun and good luck;
- north – Black turtle – sleep and mystery;
- West – White Tiger – unpredictability, destructive force;
- East - Green or Golden Dragon - wisdom and culture.
Plants and flowers
The flow of Qi energy can be too fast - then it becomes destructive, carrying luck past, or too slow, which stagnates in the corners and does not have sufficient strength. The goal of Feng Shui is to fill the room with smoothly flowing energy as much as possible. Plants and flowers help regulate its flow.
The office should be dominated by plants with Yang energy - stretching upward - they accelerate the movement of positive energy, promote development, flexible solutions complex issues, success and creation, for example, such:
- fatsia;
- lyre-shaped ficus;
- philodendron;
- Dieffenbachia.
Particularly important plants for office, located in the southwestern or southeastern part of the building.
Plants with thorns and hard leaves (for example, cacti, yucca, pike tail) carry heavy energy. But they can be grown in the office to block harmful Sha energy created by furniture corners, square columns, ceiling beams and bulky wall shelves. Such plants should not be placed closer than 1 m from the workplace or relaxation area in the office.
To create a favorable climate, several female plants are needed - creeping, with rounded leaves. This is, for example, Hoya, Peperomia or Crassula (money tree), which is considered a symbol of material well-being, so a pot with Crassula is placed in the wealth zone.
Among flowering plants positive energy is inherent in:
- Chinese rose;
- amaryllis;
- whole;
- spathiphyllum;
- cyclamen.
When choosing flowers for your office according to Feng Shui, consider their color. If you are not comfortable enough in some area of the office, place it there White color OK. Negative energy changes to positive, passing, for example, through a stem of bamboo - it is placed in the corner of the office. But it should be taken into account that excessive activation of Qi can lead to unreasonable expectations. Cut or dried flowers cannot correct the flow of Qi because... there is no life in them.
Indoor plants should not be placed in a draft, in 1 row, in a straight line between the window and the door.
Every component of our living space influences us and the events in our lives. The workspace in which we spend time is no exception. most of its time. A harmonious atmosphere, which will be provided by the correct flow of favorable Qi energy, will fill with energy and help in work, bring good health and satisfaction, dispel irritability and squabbles, promote fruitful interpersonal communications, recognition and career advancement.
In order for your work to be productive, bring the desired results and opportunities for growth, it is very important to properly arrange your workplace and, in particular, correctly position your desktop, which we will talk about in this article.
As you know, in Feng Shui the principle of the dominant arrangement of priority furnishings in rooms is very common. It also exists in the office and is most favorable for success in the service. The most favorable place for a desktop should meet the following principles:
- the location of the desktop relative to the entrance door to the office is considered more important than the location in space in accordance with the cardinal directions;
- if possible, the table should be as far away from the door as possible;
- a person sitting at a table should be able to see the entire room;
- the door to the office should be clearly visible in order to control the entrance to the room;
- the desktop should not be opposite the entrance, but slightly diagonally from the door, then you will not be attacked by energy moving in a straight line, and you will be able to see everyone who enters the room.
Being in a dominant position provides an excellent overview of the entire room and especially the entrance door to the office. This arrangement symbolizes the ability to control ongoing processes and, ultimately, success. The one who has his back to the door is in a vulnerable position, which in Feng Shui symbolizes the location of the victim. This may also mean that many important things and events will happen behind your back. Positioning yourself sideways to the door is also considered unlucky, although less vulnerable.
If it is impossible to place your work desk so that you can see the door - that is, without changing your body position, or this position does not suit you, distracting you from work, you should put a small mirror on it or, even better, hang a large mirror on the opposite wall, which will allow you to It’s good to see the door and everyone entering the room. This remedy is very effective and affordable.
Also it is important to stay as far away from the door as possible- this symbolizes control over the situation in the workroom and the availability of sufficient time to react to incoming people. Compliance with this condition leads to calmness, confidence, ingenuity and, as a result, better quality work being performed.
Another desktop recommendation is maintaining freedom of access to it- this will have a beneficial effect on the work process, expand your prospects and opportunities, and on a subconscious level give you a feeling of security. Sitting at a table facing a blank wall can lead to isolation. Do not move the desktop or one of its sides towards the wall. If there is not enough space in the room to provide free space on both sides of the table, it is advisable that the passage on one side be at least 50 cm wide. You should not place furniture or stack books in this place, as this deprives its owner of the opportunity to use the passage, especially thereby weakening it energetically.
Also It is not recommended to sit down too much close with your back to the wall and put something behind the desktop. This is only permissible if you work in an office. large sizes. It is advisable that there be a distance of at least 90-100 cm between you and the wall. If the chair touches the wall from time to time, this can cause disappointment and causeless anger.
Desk location back to the window or door creates a certain vulnerability according to feng shui, although this is not a negative factor. The positive effect of this arrangement is good lighting. If a feeling of anxiety arises in this situation, it is recommended to hang a faceted crystal sphere or bells on the ceiling at a distance of about one-third of the height of the window. If the window is too large, it is recommended to hang curtains or blinds to visually reduce it.
Much more dangerous the situation is considered to be when there is a door behind the seated person. Using the recommended bells and spheres as protection here is clearly not enough. In this situation, it is better to hang one of these products above the chair at your desk. In addition, to hide the door, you can hang a curtain, tapestry or put up a screen (the most dangerous is an external door located behind your back).
Don't clutter your office heavy and large furniture- it takes up a lot of space, and this prevents the free movement of both people and energy flows in it. This may take the form of depression or fear. Remove any unused large items or replace them with smaller ones. This will solve the problem.
Success in business is a delicate thing, but as in any area of life, we can provide ourselves with some support with our own hands and attract favorable Qi energy to our aid, which will make the process more comfortable and open the doors to new opportunities and prospects.

Nevertheless, enormous influence this whole set will have an impact on the mood and well-being of the worker.
When arranging a workplace according to the laws of Feng Shui, it is necessary to place it as close as possible to the main entrance to the room. The ideal room should have a rectangular or square shape. If the room does not have four corners, then the deficiency can be compensated for with a mirror at the location of the intended corner.

- golden;
- beige;
- yellow;
- light orange;
- pale green;
- warm red tones.
The required lighting, which should not be too bright or harsh, also contributes to the attraction of creative energy Qi.
Excess is also not welcome sunlight. Dim or diffuse lighting with a source directly above the working person or on his left side is considered favorable.
According to the laws of Feng Shui, a properly designed workplace cannot contain any dirt or trash. All items in the room must be kept perfectly clean. If the room has shelves or filing cabinets, be sure to get rid of everything unnecessary.
It is recommended that places of honor be given to those attributes or objects that relate directly to the position or profession held, but only in places favorable for this. For example, a laptop, personal computer and telephone must be located in the success zone.
Workplace placement
It is impossible to properly design an office according to Feng Shui without properly designing the workplace itself. In particular, it will help to avoid many troubles correct location table.
- It is impossible for the desktop to be located in the south direction - this will provoke constant stress and overvoltage;
- a table oriented to the east will help budding businessmen;
- the north-west is always favorable to leaders;
- western direction stabilizes business;
- southeast - will attract flows of creative energy.
Placing the table under hanging structures, such as shelves, beams and air conditioning or ventilation systems, will attract failure and illness.
It is prohibited to sit with your back to a window or doorway. This arrangement promotes betrayal and deprives a person of any support. In cases where no other arrangement is possible, Negative influence The window is softened by closing it with thick curtains, and in relation to the doors, a mirror is installed on the table so that everyone entering is reflected in it.
You should never locate your workplace directly opposite the entrance doors to your office. It is better to move it diagonally, but in such a way that those entering can see the person working at the table.
In pursuit of the goal of arranging your workplace taking into account the laws of Feng Shui, you should make sure that you can freely approach your desktop from all directions. This location will help expand prospects and opportunities. It is also necessary to take into account the fact that there must be some free space around it.
A table located close to the wall or placed in a corner, as well as between cabinets, can bring a lot of difficulties.
If there is a high partition or wall directly in front of the table, you need to hang an image with open space or an image of a calm lake or flowering meadow on it, which will significantly reduce all restrictions.
It is also undesirable for any corner of office furniture to be directed towards the desktop. In this position, the person will begin to absorb maximum amount negative energy. A houseplant located opposite this corner will help neutralize this negative flow.
A person will also be negatively affected by the location of an aquarium, shelves or open cabinets behind his back.
In turn, a blank wall behind your back is considered an excellent location. It provides excellent support from influential people and is considered a wonderful support in life. You can enhance the effect by hanging a picture on it that depicts a sloping mountain.
If you want to decorate your workplace according to Feng Shui, you need to place something blue or gray in the center of the table. Even a mouse pad. Compliance this condition will contribute to the influx of creative energy and more full use your abilities.
It is desirable to have a green indoor plant in a red pot in the left corner of the table, but of a warm color to get rid of the negative energy emitted by the sharp corners of the desktop or other office furniture. Among other things, living plants tend to absorb negative energies of anxiety and stress.
An excellent solution would be to have a glass or two of drinking water on your desk. clean water, which should be located as close as possible to the worker.
Water located with right side, activates a person’s ingenuity and creative powers, and on the left side – contributes to the acquisition of new skills and knowledge. 
It is worth noting that the water in glasses should always be fresh. Otherwise, it will begin to accumulate negative energies, which, in turn, will be absorbed by the person completely unnoticed by him.
If the workplace is located in such a way that a person sits in a crowded office with his back to other people, it is necessary to hang one of the available things on the back of the chair - a scarf, sweater or jacket - to protect against the effects of negative energy.
If a person sits facing the doors, then you should try to keep them always closed, since they are half open or open doors They literally suck out creative energy.
Sometimes we want changes in the house and we begin a large-scale rearrangement of furniture and things. By doing this in accordance with the rules of Feng Shui, we will soon notice positive changes in our lives - our careers are skyrocketing, relationships with loved ones are improving, and our financial situation is improving. Arranging your workplace according to Chinese traditions will also have a positive impact on your business. If you decide to rearrange your desk or improve your office, it’s worth considering key points Feng Shui practices.
We spend a good third of our time working, so why not optimize this process? You will not be limited to an improved mood. Success, profit and career growth directly depend on the interior details you choose and their location.
- Place the table so that your back is not to the entrance to the room. From an energetic point of view, such an arrangement is dangerous and can attract betrayal into your life. Please pay Special attention at this point if the door opens into the room.
- Sit with your face, not your back, to the window. This entails difficulties in mutual understanding with work colleagues, as well as the inability to enlist the support of your boss.
- Pay attention to the Water symbols. The table should be positioned so that they are never behind you. Water symbols include aquariums, decorative fountains, paintings depicting water element etc. They attract wealth and prosperity.
- Make sure there are no structures above your head, such as shelves, large chandeliers or an air conditioner. They create pressure, interfere with thinking and creative processes, and also block the flow of positive energy.
- Try to hide all wires. When they are on visible place, then negatively affect the flow of profit and business success.
Office workspace design
In modern offices, in order to save space, workplaces are arranged very compactly: in separate cubicles or surrounded by partitions. The person feels pressure and discomfort, and the table turns out to be cluttered computer equipment and office supplies. To visually expand such a small space, hang a picture with a landscape or any symbol of Water on the wall near the table - the sea, a waterfall, a mountain river, etc.
Lighting plays an important role. It is advisable to have a lamp on the desktop. Its light should fall from the side opposite the working hand, or from above. Blinds or curtains protect against bright sun rays and help you concentrate better. However, natural light should enter the room, as it brings harmony and comfort.
Any item that delights you will help to decorate a boring, gray place, thereby brightening up routine tasks. This could be a photograph of a loved one, an original pen stand, a decorative decoration for the monitor, in general, anything that comes to your mind. Looking at this, your mood will rise and fatigue will go away.
Feng Shui of the work area requires protection for humans. Indoor plants can provide such protection. People who work on high floors or sit near a window need it most. By the way, the choice of plants should be approached responsibly. Fern will improve relationships between employees, chrysanthemum will protect you from unwanted conflicts, geranium will help with career advancement, cyclamen will help you gain self-confidence. But the cactus, which many people like to decorate their table with, should not be placed - its spines attract negativity and have a bad effect on your financial situation. Although every rule has an exception - place it in the center of the table and you will protect yourself from intrigue and betrayal.
If your office does not have windows, be sure to place an aquarium, flowerpots with plants and paintings of the natural landscape in it.
The table, according to Chinese practice, must always be tidy, clean and tidy. Try to get rid of unnecessary papers or at least diligently put them in folders. The office needs to be cleaned regularly, wet cleaned and ventilated. Cluttering things and dust prevents the circulation of energy, so that luck and money always accompany you. Keep popular items within easy reach, and keep those you rarely use in shelves, nightstands and cabinets.
If you are a subordinate and cannot choose your workplace, at least try turning the desk. By calculating the Gua number, you will know your favorable location, and towards it you should sit. As a seat the best option There will be a work chair with a straight, hard back and armrests. This support for backs and arms creates stability in the work environment. Its mobility, that is, the presence of wheels, will come in handy.
It would be wrong to place subordinates opposite each other. Employees' views overlap, causing discomfort, distraction, and hindering career development. If a superior person is sitting opposite you, you can forget about the promotion for the near future. It is best for management to be placed behind the backs of subordinates, controlling the work process and not “pressing” with their gaze. This also symbolizes their support and providing you with a strong and reliable rear.
According to Feng Shui, the boss’s desk should not only contribute to his and the company’s success, but also help achieve a friendly atmosphere in the team. It is best for him to sit with his back to the wall, symbolizing support and support. Be sure to avoid a position with your back to the door; this can lead to a weakening of authority and significant discomfort. The effect can be enhanced by placing paintings depicting mountain peaks. If the room is very small, hang pictures of lakes, meadows and other open, peaceful landscapes. Avoid sharp corners in the office, otherwise all your luck in business will evaporate without a trace. Good natural and artificial lighting in the manager’s office will charge him with positive energy and relieve stress. bad mood and depressive conditions.
Furniture must emphasize the level and status of a person and his position. Strict design made of natural furniture, plain walls in beige, light green or pale brown tones are the best helpers. The chair should fit into the overall interior, be of the correct shape and preferably made of leather.
Any metal objects activate work activity, attract positive impulses and attract strength for a successful business.
Office decoration
When choosing a place in the house for an office, make your choice in favor of a room located close to the front door. According to the teachings of Feng Shui, the room should have a regular square or rectangular shape, since each corner is responsible for one of the spheres of life. The absence of one of the corners in the room will negatively affect the area responsible for it. This can be corrected by placing a mirror in the corner. Diffused lighting and favorable colors will allow you to work with a clear mind every day.
Your office should not only be practical and in line with Chinese practices, but also reflect your character. Add a few of your favorite things to decorate it.
Clean your work area regularly. Get rid of unnecessary junk, carefully fold documents and wipe dust off your equipment. Don’t delay reading letters and other documentation, otherwise soon piles of papers will tower next to you and interfere with your work. Order is the basis of Feng Shui, remember this.
Use a metal table lamp for lighting. Place it opposite your working hand so that the light falls in the right direction and the shadow does not interfere with your work. The proximity of a window and sunlight is of course good, but too bright rays will be distracting, making it difficult to see the monitor. Use blinds or light curtains to diffuse sunlight slightly in the morning. You should not completely prevent the entry of rays and curtain the windows with thick curtains. The sun carries countless charges of positive energy necessary for thought processes.
To put yourself in the right mood for work, put up photographs that show your career success - awarding a diploma and public speaking, and hang a nice picture of nature on the wall. We do not recommend sitting facing an empty wall, but when this cannot be avoided, it is better to see fields and harvests in front of you in order to collect them in life.
Sitting at your desk, you shouldn't be able to see sharp corners other room furniture. Of course, in some apartments it is difficult to find a spacious corner for work, so brighten up sharp corners with fabric, decorations or indoor plants. The easiest option is to stretch along them wool thread so that all conflicts and troubles at work pass you by.
To ensure future opportunities and prospects, make sure you can approach the table from multiple angles.
An important decision is purchasing a desk chair. You will have to sit on it for long hours, so it should be as comfortable and convenient as possible. Adjustable soft wide chairs with straight backs and armrests will help minimize back fatigue and neck tension. Leaning back on it for a few minutes will be a real pleasure. The backrest plays an important role in protecting you from evil spirits. Upright posture characterizes a respectable business person.
There should be a minimum of furniture in the office. Choose brown and other natural tones, avoid dark shades. Black furniture will make your work completely fruitless. Avoid relaxing furnishings, such as a soft sofa. It’s not even an hour before you forget about work and lie down on the sofa to take a nap, submitting to its magic. If you want to place it, choose a hard leather sofa that promotes control and work. Leather furniture fits perfectly into the work environment - it has “yang” energy and activates brain activity. An office cannot be complete without a cabinet for documents and other professional utensils. Make sure that its doors are always closed, otherwise it will be difficult to collect your thoughts, and you will often suffer from absent-mindedness.
At the time of the birth of Feng Shui, there was no trace of technology, so its electromagnetic pulses interfere with the work process. Nowadays it’s hard to imagine working without a computer, but still try not to clutter your office with it.
Accurate table location
The teachings of Feng Shui help determine the best location for the workplace based on your own date of birth. For correct calculation, do not take into account the first two digits. Let's give an example. The lady was born in 1982, which means we take only the number 82. Subtract 4 from it, we get 78. Divide this number by 9. Subtract 8 from a hundred, we get 92. Divide by 9 again and get the number 10 - this is the desired number . A man born in 1982 first subtracts 82 from a hundred, getting 18. And then divides by 9, the resulting number 2 is his number. Pay attention only to whole numbers.
Once you have figured out your figure, all that remains is to refer to this simple explanatory table:
This will give you the optimal location for your desktop. It is worth noting that Feng Shui experts do not recommend placing it in the south side, as this contributes to conflicts and unpleasant working moments.
Desktop sectors
Chinese practice teaches us the correct placement of objects on the desktop. Let's roughly divide it into three main zones:
- The central part symbolizes good luck, a successful financial situation, and possible future victories in the professional sphere. This zone is also responsible for past victories, so for the right energy, place cups, frames with diplomas and certificates and other evidence of achievements here. If you don’t have them at all, then leave this sector empty, don’t clutter it with unnecessary things - then the path to a bright future will be clear.
- The left side is the zone of wealth. Are you looking for more profit? Then we advise you to put up a small money tree that attracts finances and success. Thus, you get 2 in 1: a plant on your desktop and an improvement in your financial situation. If for some reason you don’t want to see the tree, you can replace it with another Feng Shui talisman - a piggy bank or a frog with three legs. Place them on a red cloth and tie them with a red ribbon, because, as you know, this color attracts wealth.
- The right side is responsible for creative direction. Post here some of the results of your successful work, some projects or documentation. But don't overdo it with a bunch of things! Everything should be compact and neatly folded. Install a telephone in the right area of the table; this will help establish relationships with superiors.
- The computer desktop is also important for beneficial work. Place a relaxing photo on your screensaver, such as a landscape or, better yet, any image of water (remember the influence of water symbols). Remove all unnecessary icons, documents and folders.
Color spectrum
Feng Shui teaches that each color and each shade has its own energy, so it is important to take into account the range of the work area. Color not only improves performance and improves mood, but can also have a positive/negative effect on human health.
Modern white and black or gray office spaces are a bad solution, as they do not harmonize at all - there are literally no colors in this design. Neutral white color does not carry any energy, and black only absorbs light rays. The gray shade is just a mixture of the first two.
The presence of many motley bright tones pleases in the first minutes of being in the room, but after a few minutes it begins to tire and even irritate. Therefore, try not to overdo it with monotony and saturation, choosing harmonizing shades.
Beige, soft green, marsh, light orange, and coffee colors contribute to a relaxed and productive atmosphere.
Talismans on the table
Let's take a closer look at the useful talismans that should be placed on the table, as well as their positive impact.
The three-legged toad, which we mentioned just above, is an ancient Chinese symbol of material well-being. Choose this unusual figurine with a coin in its mouth, place it in the left area of the table and ensure yourself a stable financial position.
Any figurine in the shape of a pyramid is very strong amulet, which stimulates performance and has a positive effect on energy circulation. Place it in the right or central area of the table to help your career take off. Make your choice in favor of a crystal product.
Indian elephant god called Ganesha increases your chance of promotion wages in particular and the total income of the family as a whole. It also has a positive effect on relationships with business partners and the successful conclusion of transactions. From time to time, stroke the hands and trunk of the elephant god to activate its action. You can also put candy next to it.
A variety of pictures with hieroglyphs of wealth, success or fame will also have a beneficial effect on work. A dragon figurine helps develop your creative abilities and protects you from ill-wishers, and an old man with a bag of money Hottei is useful for attracting wealth.
Keep a lot of information in your head and constantly forget important details? Then be sure to keep crystals that have powerful energy for working at the computer.
Feng Shui above and below the table
Above your table in optimal option there should be a flat ceiling with lamps, without huge lamps, beams or other overhanging things that create tension and discomfort. Subconsciously, every person thinks that these pipes or lamps may fall on their heads, which means that working in such an atmosphere will not be productive.
The same discomfort is created by air conditioners or heaters, whose cold or warm air currents cause discomfort from time to time. If you don’t have the opportunity to change your place at work, stock up on an umbrella in advance that can block the air. It’s even easier to change the direction of the air conditioner air flow in the settings.
The space under the table needs to be given no less attention. Don't clutter it with countless "necessary" things just because no one will notice them. Get rid of boxes, tidy up wires, dust off dust, and remove lingering cobwebs from corners. The feeling of tightness will disappear and work will become easier. System unit and the necessary things under the table should be on your left side.
The correct arrangement of furniture, the position of the table and the selection of objects on it contribute to a favorable and productive work environment, attract good luck and improve financial status. Support in the form of a wall at the back, space and opportunities in front. A tidy and clean table, a comfortable chair, the presence of talismans and relaxing objects help to properly tune in to work, accumulate positive energy and achieve new heights.
