placed so that the head or foot of the person doesn’t face the door. You should
try not to sleep under a window.
FENG SHUI en the living room:
The
living room should be near the front door. The sofa must not be in the middle
of the room back to the door. The centre table should not be in the centre of
the room, but in sideways. The windows have to be large to allow the entrance
to the sunlight and also the curtains. The television must be in the worst
place of the room, away from the sofa and the armchairs. And when it is not in
use must turn it off to avoid radiation.
