One of the most important things in life is health and maintaining good health is always a priority for everyone. Vastu Shastra, an ancient Indian wisdom, recommends aligning the energy of your home with that of nature to promote health, prosperity and well-being.
According to Vastu, the positioning of rooms, the space of furniture and the alignment of specific elements highly influence physical and mental well-being. In this article, we will discuss about the best Vastu directions for healing and how you can apply these Vastu principles of healing energies in your home.
Significance of Vastu on Health in Life
With Vastu Shastra’s five fundamental elements: earth, water, fire, air and space, find the correct balance and these elements will create an environment conducive to the health of the mind, body and spirit. When these three aspects do not align, we can experience health concerns, anxiety and unease. It helps keep a balanced energy flow within the house through options.
1. Northeast (The Zone of Healing): Highly beneficial for health and healing, the northeast direction, associated with the water element, is ruled by the water climate. It guides the peace of mind, the declension of the mind and the clarity of the thoughts.
2. East (Direction of Vitality): East is ruled by the Sun and governs health, energy and vitality. Proper alignment with the east direction improves immunity and well-being.
3. South (Stability & Strength): It is related to longevity and physical strength. On the contrary, the wrong positioning of rooms or things in this direction can cause health problems.
4. West (Rest & Recovery): The West is associated with comfort and respite. In this zone, the energy must be balanced properly for better recovery from illnesses.
5. North (Improves Immunity): Prosperity, health and energy are represented in the North direction. Ruled by the water element, it is a major player in detoxifying and maintaining immune health.
Vastu Tips for a Healthy Home
1. Sleeping Position for Better Health
• Always sleep with your head facing south for good health and sound sleep.
• Don’t sleep with your head facing north, as this may lead to restlessness and health problems.
• Sleeping on cotton or linen bedding is good for sleep and energy balance.
• Metal furniture is a source of electromagnetic distractions. So, if your bed is wood, it is the best and lightest one.
2. Mirrors: Don’t place a mirror in front of the bed, as it can cause disturbed sleep and anxiety.
3. Kitchen
• Ideally, the kitchen should be in the southeast direction (the direction of the fire element).
• When preparing food, always face East, so that you absorb the Sun’s positive energy.
• Don’t face the kitchen directly at the main entrance or next to the bathroom.
• A small rock salt bowl placed in the kitchen absorbs negative energy.
• Place the refrigerator in the Southwest or Northwest direction.
4. Bathroom
• The bathroom should be in the north-west, west or south of the house.
• Don’t build a bathroom in the northeast, as it can create a problem related to health.
• To keep energy from draining, make sure that toilet lids are down and drains are always covered.
• Also, use air-purifying plants in the bathroom, which help in absorbing the toxins.
By balancing your living environment with the natural forces surrounding it, Vastu Shastra holds a simple yet potent key to health and wellness. Implementing Vastu principles can promote good physical health, mental clarity and total happiness.
