Feng Shui Lavendar Scent
From LoveToKnow Feng-Shui
A feng shui lavendar scent (you may also search "feng shui lavender scent" because both spellings are popular on Google) works splendidly in a room designed for calm and relaxation. Lavender is common in aromatherapy to promote mental health and calm. Used in conjunction with a room that takes the ideas of feng shui and sets them in motion, lavender scents can be even more powerful.
What Does Lavender Do?
Most sources will tell you that lavender scents tend to have calming or relaxing effect. Some, though, will state that they serve to energize and uplift. Lavender can be both relaxing and energizing. Choose a desired effect (either calming or energzing) and apply other feng shui principles in conjunction with the lavender to get the total effect for the room.
Feng shui lavendar scent combinations are quite varied, so even if you simply enjoy the floral scent, you can find a way to incorporate it into your home or office. The fresh, floral scent will make you feel better. This happens because it increases the chi flow of the room. In addition, it increases your personal chi if you specifically love the scent; in turn, that raises the energy levels of the room.
Working with a Feng Shui Lavendar Scent
The simplest way to use lavender for relaxation is to burn a candle in a softly lit room and either meditate or ask your significant other to give you a massage. For true feng shui to really take effect, you'll need to incorporate aspects of furniture design, positioning, and more.
For Calm and Relaxation
A good room to choose for the usage of lavender and feng shui is a bedroom. This is where you wind down after a long day, rest and collect your thoughts. You can use a lavender eye pillow like those found at Feng Shui Emporium, a candle, or essential oils to introduce the scent to the bedroom.
In addition to the scent, color is important. Just as lavender the scent is important, so is lavender as a color. If you're interested in painting your bedroom a relaxing shade, consider this one.
To Energize and Uplift
Using candles or oils, you can release the lavender scent into a room you wish to feel energized in, such as an office. In addition to that, consider:
- Organizing well to relieve yourself of clutter. A lavender candle burning right there on the desk is sure to energize you, and if your desk is devoid of clutter, there is less of a risk for fires, knocking over the candle, or forgetting it's there and that you need to put it out.
- Lavender scent thrown your way directly from a fresh lavender plant is a great way to liven up your office; you'll have the scent plus the additional energizing benefits of fresh flowers.
Products That Mix Feng Shui and Lavender Scents
Fresh lavender is ideal when it comes to mixing feng shui and a lavender scent, especially in an office. For home, you may want to try storing lavender sachets with your bed sheets (especially if those sheets are lavender, blue, or green, so the smell and color combination will take you directly into sleep. Lavender is a versatile scent when it comes to aromatherapy and feng shui principles. Make sure all the elements in a room are cohesive.
