Is it true that a painting, as well as a chandelier above the bed, can be bad?
Everything in your bedroom affects your love life, therefore any objects that affect the flow of energy must be avoided. A chandelier, as well as any light fixture placed directly above the bed, is never a good idea. This rule applies only to a chandelier placed directly above the bed, not generally to a chandelier in the bedroom.

As for a painting, it can have a negative influence only if it carries negative or inappropriate energy for a bedroom (example: lonely images, aggressive, or sad, very dark color combinations,… etc).

What are electric and magnetic fields?
Electric and magnetic fields (EMFs) are invisible lines of force that surround any electrical device, such as power lines or the electrical cables in your home. They are created whenever electricity flows through a wire.

Where do EMFs come from?
Most EMFs are produced by human activities, but some occur naturally. The most common natural source is the magnetic field of the earth itself. Another source of natural electric fields is high voltage lightning flashes during thunderstorms and electrical storms. Televisions, radios, computers, mobile cellular phones, microwave ovens, and high voltage power lines also produce EMFs.

What is the difference between an electric field and a magnetic field?
Electric fields are formed whenever a wire is plugged into an outlet and remain present even when an appliance is not turned on. The higher the voltage, the greater the electric field. Magnetic fields are formed by the flow of current through wires or electrical devices. The greater the current, the higher the magnetic field.

How can I determine if there are EMFs present?
EMFs are present everywhere there is electricity. On a daily basis, we are exposed to EMFs generated by household wiring and any electrical appliance that plugs into the wall. Electric fields exist whenever equipment is plugged in, but magnetic fields exist only when equipment is turned on. Both types of fields get weaker with distance from their source.

What will I get from having my Feng Shui analysed?
Having you Feng Shui analysed hasmany benefits including better health, finances, increased mental clarity and peace of mind.
