I love all forms of insanity.

Turning my couch upside down and standing on my head while answering the backwards door makes me calm. And you've spelt Feng sway wrong but i'll let the grammar nazis in for that.

I do think the environment and aesthetics influence us all though.

So my living in a smoke filled black room might explain my irrational hatred of people ? You may have something there.

Cool, I'll bring the XL Rizlas. We'll also need popcorn and pizza. Some rice for the feng sweng theme too.

It's Feng SHUI to be sure though. :-)

Why not just choose to believe it and thereby make it real?

Penn & Teller did a great episode of Bullsht on this. They got three practitioners into a house one after the other and each one of them rearranged the furniture differently. The lads didn't even reset after each visit so the FS people were coming in and saying how bad the energy flow was, not knowing that another FS guy had put the furniture like that not an hour earlier.

It's just insanity with a label. Give any ridiculous belief system a name and people will assume authenticity and subscribe to it. It's usually, of course, the feeble minded and ignorant who subscribe the fastest.

A bank manager once told me that he based his decision on granting someone a loan, on the state of their garden and surrounds of their house.

He would drive by their house at the weekend without letting them know, and have a quick look at the property.. his logic was tidy house = tidy mind = tidy business.

If it was a shambles, he would turn down the loan application.

if they want energy to flow freely in their home they should invest in good quality electrical wiring

Good story but Feng Shui is something completely different.

He should be looking for beds in the bathroom!

While I don't believe in feng shui, I do believe that taking some time to consider the layout and aesthetics of your home can have positive implications for your quality of life.

I moved our table closer to a full floor window in the apartment. I now have breakfast overlooking the city. It's a beautiful sight and it motivates me before I even leave for work.

I refuse to allow a television in the bedroom. The bedroom should be a place of calm and tranquillity and having unneeded light pollution isn't good for getting to sleep, or for the quality of sleep once you do nod off. I purchased a light that simulates the rising of the sun and can now wake feeling refreshed and invigorated after 5 hours sleep. It's not the only contributory factor - diet, exercise and meditation practice also contribute to this.

I'm also a believer in decluttering. Not minimalism, but clean lines, space and order are good for the mind.

Why don't just switch the TV off before going to sleep, (including at the plug, no standby mode) and then your light pollution is sorted.

I moved my table to the wall because it was easier to sweep up the rabbit's poo.

Very zen.

I don't think watching television immediately before bed is good for the quality of your sleep. Good quality sleep is extremely important for overall mental and physical health.

Television should be watched in a room outside the bedroom. Reading a book and/or listening to some gentle music are far better ways of preparing the mind and body for high-quality restorative sleep. You'll feel the benefits within days. The same goes for laptop/tablet/smartphone usage. Avoiding using them in the hour before sleep really helps.

My two cents.

Yonks ago I got a feng shui booklet thing free with a glossy magazine. While pre-drinking in the house, flatmates and I decided to feng shui the place for a laugh. I dont remember much of the 'rules' but you were supposed to put something red in your 'love' corner of your bedroom so us single ones did that, and in one of the girls rooms the bin was in her money corner. According to feng shui this meant she was throwing her money away.

Went out a few hours after this and 3 of us who'd been chronically single, all pulled. The one with the bin in her money corner found a decent amount of cash on the way home - I think it was about £70 at the time, which was huge when you are on a crap wage. It was a bit of a laugh and very coincidental. But I'm not very woo anyway.

I remember you are supposed to keep the loo lid down, and if you have a fish tank and one of them dies, it's supposedly absorbed bad luck intended for the owner.

I pratice feng sway in the bathroom, i sit but mainly due to having my manhood hanging very far forward in an elephant's trunk kind of arc.

This is common sense, no mystical energy involved

Feng Shui me hole. Your surroundings do have an effect on your mood though, but that's obvious.
