Feng Shui is an ancient Chinese philosophy and system designed to help you live more harmoniously with your environment. The feng shui is translated into feng shui and is believed to improve our lives by bringing us positive qi [gas] or energy. We can use more positive energy in our lives.
When I was looking for the best [that is, the simplest + cheapest] way to add a bit of Feng Shui style to my home, I found three basic ways to find harmony.
1] De-Clutter. from
This is the easiest of the three steps and the most significant and immediate step. Less confusion is equal to reducing stress. Get rid of anything you don't need, use or love. [Better, donate it to a good business.]
Try to avoid overuse of overhead lighting and any sharp corners when deciding what to keep in your space. The overall goal is to create a balanced space, such as in the yin and yang. Different rooms in your home should make you feel relaxed, irritated or energetic without feeling drowsy, depressed or anxious.
2] Define your space - Make at least one space a recreation area. from
According to Ken Lauer, a feng shui expert at Zimbio.com, "As a barrier between home and the outside world, you want to use feng shui to bring a little natural world to your living room."
3] Introduce the five basic elements of Feng Shui to your home. from
There are five basic elements in Feng Shui design - wood, fire, metal, earth and water. Each element has different benefits and is represented by the corresponding color, shape, position and symbol in the home. The directions in the figure below indicate the good position of the general harmonious element.

When you start decorating, you start small, so no elements become unstoppable. The elements you introduce should "get along" with other aspects of your home and be represented in every area of your home to get the full benefit.
In order to have the greatest impact, first focus on color, second attention material, and third attention material. Placing elements in different locations in your home will result in different effects. A good way to start is to simply add a statue of Buddha that always brings good energy to your home.
