The title just says it all. Lowe’s Home Improvement Warehouse, offers how-to articles on their website. Clicking through one day in search of an article on replacing a rusty fixture…there it was. Feng Shui in the Bathroom, a handy guide to those who want to increase their chi while sitting on the toilet.
A few simple highlighted instructions…
- Close the door and toilet lid to prevent your chi(positive energy)…and the smell from escaping.
- Mirrors reflect chi and keep it moving around the room and the house. And yet…we close the door to keep it trapped in the bathroom.
- Don’t allow your faucet to drip. It is a sign of wasting money…and a high water bill.
- To prevent opportunity and prosperity from being flushed away, keep a bowl of pebbles or fresh flowers on the toilet tank or on a shelf above it. This is an element of earth and will counteract the water.
- A black or red rug at the base of the toilet will protect against loss of wealth. Good color schemes for a bathroom are light grays, cream colors, and pale blues. If it is at the center of your house, paint it red so the fire element will counteract the drain on wealth.
For those of you planning new homes, don’t put the bathroom across from the front door…otherwise opportunities could go down the drain right after they flow in.
