Over three thousand years ago the Chinese developed Feng Shui with good harvests and prosperity in mind. Feng means wind and Shui means water, both of which were necessary for a fruitful harvest time. Modern interior design uses the mysterious art to redress any imbalances in our own lives. Feng Shui should be used in the bedroom, especially in our choice of duvet cover because of its importance with our health and wellbeing. How we go to sleep and wake up affects us throughout the night and day, this is why it is so vital.

You should focus on your bed above all else as this will be your cocoon of relaxation and healing. Also look at the colours in your bedroom, the walls and any windows or views you have in the room.

Yin and Yang colours are the two types used in Feng Shui. Yin colours promote relaxation and clam. Yang colours on the other hand inspire passion and enthusiasm, a burst of energy.
