According to the followers of the ancient art of Feng Shui, the kitchen is the place in the house where well-being is concentrated. That is why it is so important to create a harmonious atmosphere in this room. After all, how warm and cozy the interior of the kitchen will be, all family members can become so happy and prosperous.
It is known that feng shui (or the ancient science of harmony) affects all spheres of human activity. How else? From how harmoniously the space around a person is planned and arranged, how healthy (both physically and spiritually), happy and successful he will eventually be. And if you want to attract wealth to your home, then by all means start with the kitchen, where, according to the followers of ancient art, the epicenter of well-being is concentrated. And in order to do everything right and not miss anything, you just need to follow the simple advice of Woman`s Day.
1. First, keep in mind that the entrance to the kitchen should not be located opposite the entrance doors to the house itself. Why? This can lead to the fact that all the negative energy from strangers (who may not even want to) will flow into the kitchen area and upset the balance and harmony.
2. Who would have thought, but various podiums, ledges and steps also negatively affect the general atmosphere in general and all family members in particular. Even if you planned to divide the kitchen space into zones (in order, for example, to allocate a separate place for cooking and a separate dining room), then we advise you to refuse this. According to Feng Shui followers, the floor should be smooth and of the same level. The only thing we can advise is to separate the kitchen from the dining room using color schemes (different shades of laminate, parquet, tiles, etc.).
3. Speaking of color. It is undesirable to use bright colors in the kitchen area. It is better to give preference to muted green, yellow, brown, orange shades. Or use white as the main color.
4. Also, according to experts, in the kitchen there should be no contradictions between the elements of fire and water. And everything should be based on the so-called triangle, the vertices of which will be the refrigerator, sink and stove. In other words, a stove, microwave oven, multicooker should not stand next to a dishwasher, freezer, refrigerator or sink. Otherwise, it can cause everyday scandals and strife in the family.
5. Another important point. It is very important to ensure that the taps in the kitchen are always in perfect order. It is believed that with dripping water, welfare can also leak out of the house. Therefore, when choosing a sink mixer, pay attention not so much to its design as to its strength and durability.
6. It will not be superfluous to also remind that the stove (and the kitchen itself!) Must always be kept clean. For example, try cleaning your stove and you will see how much more welcoming your family environment will be.
7. Also make sure that all sharp-edged objects are stored exclusively in closed boxes. Even knives left on the table or in the sink can lead to quarrels and scandals.
8. But in order to reduce the presence of unfavorable energy sha, it is enough to move all bulk products into round containers. Yes, yes, if, for example, your grandmother gave you a tin can that has a rectangular or square shape, do not store tea, salt, sugar and cereals in it. Better to use it for something else.
9. To add positive emotions, place symbols of the harvest in the kitchen. It does not have to be, say, a haystack or a sheaf of wheat, it is enough to cover the table with a tablecloth depicting vegetables or fruits, and also use various fruit motifs on the wallpaper, kitchen apron or dishes.
10. By the way, not many people use mirrors in kitchen design. And in vain. Mirrored surfaces can not only visually enlarge the room, but can also improve the atmosphere in the house. For example, try placing a mirrored surface next to your stove and you will see your wellbeing begin to improve.
