Don’t have clutter
Our homes have precise energy centers according to feng shui. These energy centers are connected to our lives. A lot of clutter and objects in the house will interfere with these energies and prevent them from reaching us.

Anything that is not useful should be removed from the house to allow the flow of positive feng shui energy.
Don’t keep disempowering artwork in your home
Instead, replace it with art or paintings that uplift and empower you to greatness.

Plants, water, and even animals all contain vibrant positive energy that can enliven your home. Add items from nature to your home including plants, fabrics, textures, objects, and colors or paintings that represent it.
Don’t sleep, work, or sit in a disempowered position
-
Map out the commanding position in your office and home and arrange your furniture and bed according to the position. You need to seat or sleep in a manner that you can see the path or the door, but not directly aligned with it.
Don’t have unfriendly objects in your home
-
This includes furniture, and weapons, and should be removed or kept far from the vicinity. For example, kitchen knives should be out of sight, while sharp-edged furniture should be swapped with round-edged ones.
