Mantra bed – designed to provide you good Feng Shui while you sleep!

Mantra bed is designed by Mauro Bertame for FEG furniture. The base of the bed is very low and the canopy has soft round contours. The mantra bed is covered in a special textile which mitigates the effects of electromagnetic fields.

The high arc canopy gives the comfort of a warm embrace. Those of you compelled to involve the Feng Shui principles into your bedroom may want to start with this beautiful piece.

You may have a peaceful rest, with the protection of the canopy; The high head board is also a symbol of great mountain / turtle, meaning you are gaining support  & divine help in your daily pursuit.

Chinese adore the colour red. It a very Yang colour in terms of Feng Shui. Indeed, it is so auspicious that most of the Forbidden City is painted in red!

Red is a very vibrant colour, it is very stimulating visually and subconciously.

Red is a very dominant colour and is best used in moderation; Feng Shui always emphasizes on balance & moderation. Red decors are best placed in the south, northeast & southwest  sections of one environment ( according to the 8 mansion school ).

However, one needs to be careful not to use the colour red when a particular section is afflicted by bad annual stars, namely  the 5 yellow & 2 black ( flying star feng Shui )

I personally like to use red in the living room or kitchen/dining room as these are the areas for socializing and would much benefit from a dose of Yang Chi boosting.

I prefer to use red decor moderately in my personal space, as a scarlet furniture/ornament will automatically be the centre of attention / attraction. Abundant yang energy is great for public area but one could be overstimulated / overwhelmed  if this strong colour is saturating ones personal space

In the practice of Feng Shui, red can also be used to energize an object ( cinnabar ink, red knots, red packet, even red stickie ). I activate my Feng Shui objects by sticking red stickies underneath or decorating them with red ribbons.
