Natural Tips for All Bedrooms

All three Asian systems agree on these key points.

■ Bedrooms should be clean, tidy, fresh and clutter-free.

■ Keep the television out of the bedroom. Electrical radiation and stimulating subject matter are not conducive to a restful space.

■ Natural, nontoxic incense creates an atmosphere of spirituality, richness and sensory pleasure.

■ Make the bedroom a work-free zone. If there’s no other place for your desk and computer, hide it with a beautiful screen or a sumptuous piece of fabric when not in use.

■ Place something you truly love across from your bed so that you see it when you first open your eyes in the morning. This can be a tapestry, painting, photograph or a window with a view of nature.
