How your ideal kitchen should be according to Feng Shui

For Feng Shui, the kitchen is one of the most important places in the house, since food is prepared there and if it is not imbued with good energy, it will affect the health of all the inhabitants of the house.

For this reason, experts in this ancient Chinese art have pointed out the ideal conditions for good energy to flow in your kitchen and favor everyone.

Water and fire don’t get along

In Feng Shui the balance of energy is based on the five elements: wood, fire, earth, metal and water. As you can imagine, water and fire repel each other and it is precisely these two elements that prevail in our kitchens and when they are very close or head-on, the energy consequences are not the best.

If your kitchen has the stove or stove next to or in front of the dishwasher or sink, you have two very strong energies facing each other. The solution is to balance them with the wood element, place a plant or wooden decorative elements between the dishwasher and the stove.

color is very important

As you know, in the kitchen there are two very strong elements that do not get along with each other. For this reason, if you are thinking of remodeling your kitchen, lean towards the color green, since it balances water and fire and also represents growth, which will especially favor you if there are children and adolescents in your home.

Burn the heart of the house

This expression refers to kitchens that have their stove or burners in the center (on an island) and this has negative effects on the couple’s relationship and the material prosperity of the family.

The ideal would be not to have the fires in the center, but if your house is like this and you do not plan to remodel soon, place ceramic, clay or stone decorative elements next to the burners and thus be able to balance this sector.

The beams crush you

Many houses have their ceilings with exposed beams and this is considered by Feng Shui to be an overwhelming energy.

If there are beams in your kitchen, try to hang mobiles or faceted spheres from them so that this energy does not end up in your food.

Don’t scare the cook

Tradition states that the cook should not turn his back on the entrance to the kitchen, since if he gets scared while preparing food, this energy of uneasiness will remain in them and could make the diners sick.

If when you stand at your stove to cook you turn your back to the door, place some reflective surface so you can see who is approaching and not be taken by surprise (not only is it good energy, but it can also prevent accidents).

You don’t have to show so much

For Feng Shui, the ideal kitchen is one in which its countertops are as clear as possible, as this helps the energy to move properly and calmly throughout the kitchen.

So, try to store as many things as possible (appliances, pots, etc.) and allow the energy to benefit you through food.

Do you really think you don’t deserve better?

We all have our favorite mug, it’s true. But what if the cup is already chipped and old? Don’t you think you’re telling the universe that you settle for something damaged?

So take a moment and make room in your shelves and drawers, take out everything that is old, broken or damaged and make room for new and better things in your life.

Since the kitchen is such an important sector for energy, energies known as flying stars that favor or harm the energy of all the inhabitants of the house can converge in it, for this reason it is better to have an advanced study of Feng Shui elaborated by an expert.
