Children & Feng Shui

If there is a problem with energy in a hose, the first people to be affected by it will usually be young children. Children are connected to space more then we are. They feel and see many things that adults cannot, and because of their high sensitivity they relate directly to the energy of places.

In China, practitioner of the Taoistic Feng Shui would often come to a consultation with a helper, a small boy under the age of seven. He will observe child's reactions and behaviour in order to detect any negative energy. According to a Taoist belief, the Qi of small boys is almost 100% Yang, which makes them especially sensitive to detect harmful Yin energy.
                           
How to read the energy of your child bedroom?
                        
Connect energetically with the child you were long time ago. Feel as 4 or 12 year old would. Do you remember the world not as a solid, static world of grownups but a mystery of perception? Recollect; see a place from your childhood, any place that comes to your mind… Go to your child's bedroom and look around, see what your child's eyes see. Listen for any insights that may come, notice how you feel in your body, notice images that comes to your mind.
See what kind of child you are in this room, what is your gender etc. Spend a night in children's bedroom.

Unsupportive space affects your child's well being.

When I was little I shared bedroom with my twin brother. He would fall asleep as soon as the lights were out, but I had problem falling asleep. My bed was facing directly a glass door and lights from a hallway. The head of my bed was partially against the window, with a street light behind and the side of my bed was alongside French door to my parent’s bedroom, covered with a curtain ala Pollock, I remember steering at this curtain and seeing all kinds of monsters coming out. At night I felt like in an aquarium "pulled” into whatever was out there, behind those doors. I would toss and turn, get in and out of bed, call my mom several times at night – I was a pain. My mother took me to various doctors who prescribed light meals, herbal tinctures, and warm baths, this and that, which she had faithfully administered. However, she had never considered something in my bedroom could be corrected to help me sleep, and she never tried to see how it felt to be in my bed at night. Later I came up with a solution to use available blankets, weaving them into a metal frame of my bed, thus making a tent that separated me from that entire shadow world around me.
