Children Zone – A Vastu guidelines
Everyone in the house needs a sense of support and connection in their private space, but this is particularly important for growing young minds and hearts. A children room should support him or her both within the context of the family and as an individual. Children are more in touch with their feelings and also more sensitive to their environment
Here are few simple tips you may want to keep in mind, while designing/rearranging your child room:-
Pay attention to the pictures or paintings on the walls, you might be surprised by its significance in affecting your child’s behavior on a subconscious level. It’s important to evaluate the message the paintings may be sending. Is it inspiring, encouraging, creative or positive? Or is it sending the wrong message. Some scenes like crying child or child in sad mood may actually drain energy from a room.
Plant are a symbol of growth. Place some live plants in their room. It is important that the plants are well cared for and that they remain healthy and vibrant.
Children loves the nature. Colour is an easy way to bring the essence of nature inside the room. Use of natural shades like green for life, orange for growth, yellow for stability and blue for vision are highly recommended in the children zone. Grey should be avoided as this will make a children depressed & becomes lethargic.
Most important, children room should be clutter free. Old clothings, old toys & unusable stationeries forms major clutter in the children room. Make sure that you remove these frequently to make a space for new vibrant energy necessary for the growth of the child. Room should have feeling of freshness and positive energy.
East is a source of positive energy. Place a bed of children in such a way that his/her head is on the east side. Sleeping position at any other direction affects the child’s quality of sleep.
Mirrors in the children bed room should be placed carefully. Bed reflecting in the mirror can cause a problem of bad dream for the childrens.
Dispalying the future goal & showcasing their achievement can inspire them to work harder.
Computer, mobile , television and other elctronics gadgets created a electrostress in the room making children moodiness and anger in nature. Limit the exposure to such devices in the children bed room
It is righly said that there are no bad children, only bad behavior and our environment affects our behavior.
