Vastu Tips That Anyone Can Use
Increasing Abundance
Add a fountain in the Northeast area of your home or office to enhance success. Circulating water stimulates the flow of money in your life.
Reducing Clutter
Reduce clutter to decrease stress in your life. In Vastu, it is very important to be clutter-free. Clutter acts like stagnating pools that collect and store negative energy, preventing you from moving forward in your life. Clutter makes you feel tired and clouds your thinking; it prevents the joy of free and easy movement. Clutter has the effect of stopping success in your life, as the mind responds to a cluttered environment with disorganized thinking and poor decisions.

Ancient Wisdom for a Modern Wired World

Balancing the Five Elements

The precious knowledge of Vastu can benefit our lives in innumerable ways. Our modern stressful society can truly benefit from the awareness and implementation of this ancient art and science.

When you enter a building and feel uneasy, it means one or more of the five elements, fire, earth, air, water, or space, are out of balance. People may move into environments that are beautiful in appearance, with exquisite architectural details and design but if one of these elements is out of balance, they may end up with chronic health issues or divorce. Their lives change very rapidly in the new environment. The ancient art and science of Vastu addresses the causes of these problems, the directional imbalances, and misalignments in a building, and will correct these imbalances for a more balanced and harmonious life.

We are affected by our environment, which can be stressful or harmonious. The basic principles of Vastu create a situation where the elements are in balance. For example, in nature there is much life force energy, prana, whereas in crowded urban areas, there is less natural light and fresh air, causing stress. The more high-tech your life, the more you need Mother Nature.

Vastu is a science that addresses why we may feel uneasy in a space if one or more of the elements are out of balance, and how to balance these elements. The principles are the same all over the world, no matter where you are on the planet. The principles are based on how we are affected by two energies, magnetic energy from the north and positive solar energy from the east.

These are universal energies and set up an electro-magnetic field that covers the surface of the earth, in latitudinal and longitudinal lines, creating a grid system that radiates energy that comes from the center of the earth and illuminates energy from the moon, sun, and stellar constellations. If we align our buildings and physical bodies to this earthly grid system, we gain the support of nature. We align ourselves with the forces of nature so that we can thrive.

Vastu and Sleep

Vastu and Sleep

The rising Sun is nourishing and beneficial for our health. The Sun is the most powerful influence on our planet.

Sleeping with your head to the East, the direction of the 
Sun, is the best direction for calming, restorative sleep. The direction East is symbolic of the life force,new beginnings, healing, and Enlightenment.

Sleeping South is very good and recommended for recovery from illness or surgery.

Sleeping West is not beneficial and sleeping North is not advised.

The neurons of the thalamus, deep within the brain, are direction sensitive and transmit at different rates when we face different directions.

In a study done by a neurophysician at a University, lab animals were put in narrow cages to sleep. Half of the animals were sleeping with their heads to the North, the other half sleeping with their heads to the East.

In the morning, he took blood samples from them to measure stress hormones secreted by the limbic system which is controlled by the thalamus. Stress hormones make the body work harder and can cause it to fail in time.

Animals sleeping East had reduced levels of stress hormone in their blood stream, animals sleeping in the North had elevated levels of stress hormones in their blood.

It was observed that the animals who slept with heads to the East were peaceful and the animals made to sleep to the North fought with each other.

A physician heard about this study and decided to do a survey of her patients. She discovered that the patients who slept North had the worst mental health, the most depression and anxiety. The patients who slept East were sleeping better, were more relaxed and alert during the day.

Sleeping with your head in the East is a very easy way to improve your life, and gain the benefits of the energies from the East. Please try this and experience a positive shift from this one simple change in your environment.

Vastu is a great gift and blessing from the ancient Rishi’s of India. I truly believe that implementing the principles of Vastu in our lives and environments will benefit everyone in living a more peaceful, harmonious and fulfilling way.
