How to locate your Bed in your bedroom using Fengshui

Ever wondered if there is a logic behind where you should place your bed? Why do interior designers make certain decisions? Why does your room make you feel stifled? Here is a clear visual explanation of how you should place your bed in your bedroom.
While this follows feng shui principals, there is no magic behind it, it is very much common sense, and I will explain why:)
I try to make it as short as possible, so please stay till the end!
Please feel free to ask me any questions in the comments section!
Please comment on what else you'd like to see, most of my videos are on Tiktok, but here is where I do not need to rush! :)

Really love the explication of this. I was told to think of Chi like running water. If you open your door and there’s say a window directly across that Chi rushes from the door out your window and if you put your bed or desk there your trying to do your work or sleep in a river of rapid moving chi. If you put a bed next to it and your head is too close you will always feel tired but if you put your feet close to it then less tired. I am not sure how true this is but it’s always worked for me in small rooms to imagine Chi like this.

[@fuchsfarben]

A little tip from experience: If you have a pantry with a fridge and/or a freezer inside, do NOT place the head-part of your bed close to it. Those things make noises that you usually don't register during the day when its loud and busy, but at night, oh boy... The beeping and hissing drove me nuts!

It's also important to not see your work when relaxing/ sleeping. Suggestions incl: a wall hanging that can be turned around easily. When working, you have schedule, post-it notes, stuff like that. Turn it over to reveal a calm poster that fits the frame well, as though it's not used for work on the other side. Screw in a wallpapered board to back of desk footwell (wallpaper shows on bedside). Place opened shelves on desk, velcro framed photo/art back-to-back with hanger protruding from top center & sandwiched btwn frames and suspend from bottom of shelf, shows both to desk and bed. If an opened space is in center of shelves, suspend a branch of driftwood, will calm for work and sleep. ( H H , where the H's are shelves & space btwn is for branch) Easy to make with 2"x3" boards, screws & white paint. Hardware store will cut boards for you when buying, so plan ahead.

[@hcch5799]

I would personally recommends 5:25 because you should put your bed away from the bathroom, you don't wanna hear the flush each time people use it when youre resting on your bed. You put your work desk near the window so it directs sunlight onto your desk this brings energy to you while youre working at the same time you can look out at the scenery outside when youre in stress. Your work desk is not supposed to face your bed that is very counter-productive, and easy to lose focus and constantly seeing your bed makes you procrastinate more. You shall fit in a book shelf against the bathroom wall this will help reduce the echo, at the same time, the whole working area is more conducive and helps you focus more easily.

[@bochenggu1439]

But some say you shouldn't have your desk face the window either because the view and activities outside will be a constant distraction to whatever you're trying to accomplish at the desk, thus decrease the productivity.

It’s not irrational. Some of us have military training and you would never be clearly exposed. To this day, I still would carefully examine the room prior to choose a table at a restaurant. Always with me facing the door and I always ask where the bathroom is located or kitchen is located, in case I need to make an urgent or sudden exit.

Honestly, I'd probably swap the door to swing out instead of in. I feel like a lot of designers don't consider how a door interacts (or interferes) with living movement. I can see that beyond the room is an open looking hall or room and no adjacent doors, so for me, I would definitely make the door open put instead to give the room more space. (Of course, in smaller spaces like that, pocket doors are really the best, but they're severely under utilized in the US)

[@jennieg789]

So true re: pocket doors. They are just more expensive to install. Last year, I converted all bedroom doors to sliding doors to gain more room area. Visually they are also very nice with the hardware. I intend to do pocket doors for the spare room in the basement and the pantry but that’s because we are doing full renovations and are able to build these in.

@@jennieg789 Pocket doors are definitely more expensive to install retroactively, but in new builds they are only slightly more expensive to put in. But they really would help so many small spaces.

I thought of changing the door too, but to switch the the hinge side so it opens inward on the other side. From the other side it might be a little strange to have the doorknob in the corner of the room, but it would solve most of the problems inside the bedroom.

[@forbuntut]

That's my first thought as well when I see this problem. Change the door to swing out, it's not 'bothering' anything.. since it just hits the wall.

[@MacDeece]

This is amazing. I’ve always had a natural sense for Fengshui, but I never knew what it was that I was feeling. I have no enemies or reason to fear for my life, but if I’m near a window when sleeping or sitting directly in front of a door with my back to it (especially with headphones on), I feel vulnerable and think about the most extreme possibilities, such as being crept up on, assassinated, a school shooting (so I sit in tactical positions with good views and near exits), etc. Wow.

[@dottiebaker6623]

It's my belief that we all have these self preservation concerns embedded in our DNA, coming from a time when none of us slept in beds or even in houses. It's kind of analogous to having canine teeth, or the little part of our spine that is left over from when we all had tails. Because we still have these ancient instincts for self preservation, it's a good idea to honor them and make sure we feel protected and safe. When we do, our very real and current anxiety is lessened and life is better.. It's not magic, just understanding who we are on a much deeper level.

glad i got recommended this channel tbh. I watched a few videos and realized how badly oriented some of my space was and followed the principles they teach and I've noticed an immediate dramatic improvement in not only the accessibility of my spaces but this tangible sense of energy. it feels clear, free of obstacles and already affecting my mood in a positive manner. previously I had an armchair and some storage blocking the living space from the doorway so I would have to walk 90* and 90* and 45* to access the living space which did not feel seperate from the open larder kitchen. Now my couch separates the living space from the kitchen, my desk is facing towards the open space and it feels at once protected yet spacious. When able I will definitely try to apply this to my bedroom as well.

[@mariannerichard1321]

You could also hang the door on the other side, so it opens to the right instead of to the left. The best wall becomes the one with no window nor door, the study can then be placed below the small window.

Or install a sliding door so the energy flow is even inside the room. Not directional.

[@mariannerichard1321]

@@jennieg789 Sliding doors can be tricky to install, especially in existing building. The electricity outlets can be in the way, even for a barn door type. If a door can swing to the left, it can swing to the right with minimal adaptation. But if there's no misplaced electric outlet, sliding door is a solution. Even getting rid of the door altogether can be an option. XD

[@noraramos3798]

Your example of the most difficult situation is almost exactly the layout of my master bedroom. Mine is actually worse, because the wall in your drawing that does not have windows, and is not up against the bathroom, has my closet. I also have a Dutch colonial home, so the roof is angled, causing the walls upstairs (where my bedroom is) to have a slant in the corner diagonally to the back left when entering the room through the doorway. Right now, I have my bed set up with the headboard against the window on the left wall (viewing from the entryway/door), but I have never been comfortable having my bed blocking the window behind it. Not figuring snipers into the equation lol, I just don’t like how it looks. This leaves me with the only other option of my headboard against the wall that the bathroom is behind, just like your placement in this drawing. I am going to shift my bed to that new placement, and see if it feels better. I know it is not auspicious to have the headboard of the bed against the wall abutting the bathroom, but I do think that as long as I continue to keep my bathroom very clean,(and as long as my husband continues to keep the toilet seat closed) it will be better for me than having the (not solid) headboard blocking the window the way I have it set up right now. It won’t hurt to try. Thank you for your very clear instructions; I love your videos!

[@maudeduguay9521]

For the last design for a single you can put you bed in the corner of both windows. with heavy curtains narrowing the window behind you, and the energy of the smaller window just goes above and past your bed because your right against the wall.

[@jennieg789]

If the room is big enough, you could install a track on the ceiling and then hang some curtains or curtain panels to divide the room space. This way you keep your rest bedroom space separate. My sons have smallish bedrooms and we are not interested to buy a bigger house just for that. Instead we are looking into Murphy beds. There are really well made ones. During the day the beds will be propped up and the room will function mostly as their studying or lounge space. At night, they pull the bed down and sleep. A good compromise for space.

[@ragnkja]

If there’s no window, is it even a bedroom?

[@ragnkja]

griffswa In Norway, a bedroom must have a window of a certain minimum size, and either it or a door must be able to open enough to allow a person to use it as an egress.

[@DeathMonky22]

I've always been worried about the sniper susceptibility of my bed placement, thank you for your guidance!

[@c_alaia]

In the small/complex space example that you show, I too would put the bed in the orientation where it's against the small window on the right hand side (with a sturdy solid bedhead/headboard) but I would also change the way the door swings. So, instead of swinging inwards (into the bedroom) I would unscrew hinges, fill the old marked out grooves where they once were set with wood filler, chisel required area in frame for new hinge plates and repositioned latch etc etc so that the door could swing *outwards* instead of inwards into the room. Believe me, this changes the flow wonderfully 🤤

[@PauloCoelho99]

I love these videos thank you!

[@patricialevina]

Hi this is really interesting knowledge. May I ask, how if I put my bed like the first scenario of the challenging room : from the door we see the bed and behind the door is where the study table. But in this case, you dont need to squeze to get to the table, because the width of the room is quite big, so there's enough space between the bed and the opened door to cross to the table. Is it also not desirable position? My room is so much like this, except I have the bathroom door instead on the single window on the right side (in this scenario)

[@markhorton2835]

I would change the opening direction of the door - easy and cheap to do. Then the bed can be in the most desirable location, no compromise needed :) Love these videos!

[@Breegan]

honestly when he said it matters about you feeling good - it really clicked in my head. I’m typically manic when i clean/rearrange my room, and it’s always almost the start of something new, and i’ll just go and go and go without a second thought and then like around 6:30- 6:49 i’ll have to stop and just really feel out how the rest of the stuff should be. interesting to think about.

[@mskrazie]

“so that snipers cant shoot you..” lmaooooooo

[@ghcheong]

How did you make the small furniture models? Is there a video for reference or any online resources?

[@j.t.1215]

I did it right!!!! So excited. Thank you for this Fengshui video on bedroom placement. It answered so many questions.

[@PlasmaOscillations]

I don't know how youtube knows that just today I was trying to figure out where to place my bed in my next houses bedroom. I didn't search for this, or talk about it out loud, I only thought about it while looking at the bedroom.. Then I come home to my current house, sit down for the evening, turn on youtube, and the first video it is suggesting is this one... GET OUT OF MY MIND KZbin but also thanks for the information in this video!

[@dacinzo9109]

In the last example, I would replace the small window with a wall. One big window is enough light for a small room like that

[@Dylan-rp5rb]

Good to know I setup my room perfectly without trying to

[@heathermalmal9943]

This video just validated my concerns about not being able to find a right spot for my bed. The difficult room at the end was almost like mine but if there was a door on the blank wall.

[@Yulenka-]

I feel like there are some good options if room dividers are considered. For example, place the bed in the left part of the room but put a divider to separate it from the door. This way the room will be split into a cozy bedtime corner and the workplace main part with windows and the desk. The only downside is that it may feel a bit claustrophobic in there and there is no space for bedside tables, but this is what I would personally do ☺️

[@dessa248]

2:30 will be rearranging my bed to this..thank you..

[@emmteemee]

My bedroom has 3 closets along one wall, and the wall next to that one has two doors (leading to hallway and bathroom) with only about 4 feet separating them. The other two walls each have windows. How's that for a challenge? It's actually a pretty clear choice though, because one of the windows is high on the wall and the width of a bed - clearly designed to be the bed wall. The window above the bed doesn't open. The lower window on the fourth wall does open - required by code for emergency egress.

[@Nirmadify]

Your challenging room is almost exact to my bedroom layout! Thanks you for this!!

[@scientiasitpotentia70]

I just wanna say that you have such a beautiful energy! :))

[@VanNessy97]

May I also suggest instead of a king or a queen bed, just opt for a twin? It opens up more walking around space (and here's a secret that furniture salespeople don't want you to know about: A bed is just a shelf you put your body on when you're not using it!)

[@HaroldSink]

Having it at an angle facing the door between the windows would be better because you can fill the empty space behind with something that would add to your Chi. This may not be ideal for most people but it brings the most balance to the room. I notice you did not mention about having closets in the bedroom. Here in the United States, most bedrooms have closets now.

[@jennieg789]

By definition from a real estate selling pov, a room without a closet cannot be considered a bedroom. All bedrooms need to have a closet. Good point about the closets, this will further restrict how to place the bed.

[@Bryony_Tebbutt]

The end example; re-hang the door the other way, and keep the bed against the wall and study by the small window. Now you know! :D ( love your videos) x

[@elizabethwomack4829]

The little furniture pieces are SO CUTE!

[@megamaze00]

I have a difficult room very similar to the one you made. I decided to put my bed against the window because there is dense forest right outside that window, so it doesn’t feel very vulnerable.

[@savannahseaver4852]

tbh I would be afraid that some forest monsters or something stupid would come for me through the window lmaooo

[@amberambie5840]

Our master bedroom is so weirdly laid out. Our bedroom door is at a angle where 2 normal walls are supposed to meet. Then our closet door is on 1 of those walls. The left side is where our bathroom door is.. and then we have 2 windows placed on the longest wall. So, we have our bed inbetween the 2 windows.

[@gamewrit0058]

I'd do the same with that last room, Cliff. 👍 Add a sturdy headboard, and either blackout curtains behind, or a fabric-covered foam block to snuggly fit in the window to keep drafts off my neck. There will be plenty of natural light from the adjacent wall of windows, and that source of side lighting is much more comfortable for me than looking straight into a window from the study area (direct light on my face for more than a few minutes gives me migraines).

[@aellalee4767]

This helos explain why my bed feels a little funny where it is. I might change it back to where it is, but currently it's creating a dark corner that is unpleasant. I can see how it's cutting off energy to that part of the room based off of how you explained stuff. So, thanks!

[@gepmanzano513]

In your final drawing, what if the door opens on the opposite side, what is the best position for the bed?

[@aa-tt5yy]

on the left side, up to the wall with no windows.

[@karenolson4000]

My bedroom is set up like the first version you showed. However, there is one additional concern that you didn't address. The main electrical panel, in my house is on the basement wall on the floor right below my bedroom, so I don't want to put the bed in the most logical location in the room (right above the electrical panel) given that electrical panels give off a certain amount of stray voltage.

[@RogueAPBT]

Can confirm. My old house has the main panel in the one bedroom, and at first I made the mistake of sticking my bed in that corner, the only one without windows. Ears ringing and headaches, terrible insomnia were the result, and it took me a few months to realize it was because of sleeping too close to the panel.

[@basicbrittani]

Woah, this was exactly what I needed to grasp the concept!

[@JDM-Chaser]

you make me chuckle man "you need a solid structure behind you so snipers can't shoot you while you're not noticing" the accent just tops it off for me , great vid and tips
