In this blog post i am going to share with you three areas in your home to apply Feng Shui to. These 3 areas make a huge impact on the energy in your home. If you are someone that doesn’t have time to put in all the effort to Feng Shui your home, start with these 3 areas

I recently had a conversation with someone about the top three areas of the home to Feng Shui when you don’t have time to do the whole thing.

The three areas in this blog post will actually help get Chi moving and start to create a different energy in your home. When energy starts to shift and change, life also starts to shift and change.

A lot of people believe that in order to Feng Shui their homes, they need to spend thousands on a professional consultation, and they should redesign their entire homes. This is simply not the truth. In fact, if you are new to Feng Shui, or you have always wanted to Feng Shui your home, there are three areas that completely change the energy in your home, almost immediately.

These are:

  • The coffee table

  • Your night stands

  • The kitchen

These small but powerful spaces act like energetic magnets. When styled intentionally, they can help your home feel calmer, wealthier, brighter, and more aligned.

From my experience, Feng Shui starts in the little spaces that we often overlook and don’t think about.

One of the biggest mistakes beginners make is thinking Feng Shui has to be overwhelming. You do not need to buy expensive furniture, paint every wall, or turn your house into a minimalist showroom. Good Feng Shui is all about good intentions, and actually working with what you already have.

If a Feng Shui consultant tells you you need to fill your home with trinkets and decor you hate… run!

Think of these areas as a '“Feng Shui starter pack” for good energy.

How to style your coffee table for good Chi

The coffee table is the energetic center of the living room.

First off, it is very important that your living room has a coffee table. When a living room doesn’t have a coffee table, energy flows in and rushes around the room too quickly. When Chi moves to fast through a room, the energy will feel rushed and it will not be a very good room to relax in.

The Best Feng Shui Coffee Table Styling Formula

The real secret is balance.

Here is a simple formula:

1. Add Something Natural

Nature instantly softens energy and brings life into the room. It also helps to ground energy.

Ideas:

  • A small plant

  • Fresh flowers

  • A bowl of natural crystals

  • Branches or greenery

Plants symbolize growth and fresh opportunities, making them especially powerful for abundance energy.

2. Include a Candle

Candles activate the fire element, which brings warmth, passion, visibility, and movement into your home.

Choose scents that feel grounding and luxurious:

  • Vanilla

  • Sandalwood

  • Amber

  • Rose

  • Cedarwood

Bonus Feng Shui tip: keep the candle clean and dust free. Burned out candles can symbolize depleted energy.

3. Use Beautiful Coffee Table Books

Coffee table books create layered, elevated energy and make your space feel intentional.

Choose books that reflect:

  • Beauty

  • Travel

  • Fashion

  • Architecture

  • Wellness

  • Dream lifestyles

In Feng Shui, imagery matters. Your environment quietly programs your subconscious every single day.

Make sure that you choose books that represent you and your interests.

4. Add Crystals for High Vibes

Crystals are one of the easiest ways to elevate the energy of your home, plus they are so pretty!

Some beginner-friendly choices:

  • Rose quartz for softness and love

  • Citrine for wealth energy

  • Clear quartz for clarity

  • Amethyst for peace

A crystal bowl or tray instantly creates a more intentional and elevated aesthetic.

5. Leave Empty Space

This is where many people go wrong.

Every inch does not need to be decorated.

Empty space allows Chi to move freely. A crowded table creates visual stress and energetic heaviness.

Luxury spaces almost always feel airy.

Coffee Table Feng Shui Mistakes to Avoid

Avoid:

  • Stacks of random mail

  • Too many remote controls

  • Broken decor

  • Dead plants

  • Sharp or aggressive decor

  • Excess clutter

Your coffee table should feel calming, grounded, and welcoming.

Feng Shui Your Nightstands for Better Sleep & Feminine Energy

I feel like i say this a lot, but your night stands are one of the most important areas in your bedroom.

We spend a lot of out time sleeping throughout our lives, and what is closest to us when we sleep, affects us the most.

If your bedroom doesn’t have any night stands or bed side tables, or if your room only has one, it is important that you get some and that you have two. They must be equal size and height, matching is preferred.

The Ideal Feng Shui Nightstand Setup

As i mentioned above, everything is about balance in the bedroom. So two night stands, even if you are single, is important. This symbolizes openness to partnership, balance, and receiving support.

Remove Emotional Clutter

Your nightstand should not become a dumping ground.

Avoid:

  • Old receipts

  • Empty water bottles

  • Random cords

  • Work papers

  • Excess skincare clutter

Keep Meaningful Items Nearby

Choose items that support the energy you want to cultivate.

Ideas:

  • A calming crystal

  • A beautiful book

  • A silk sleep mask

  • Fresh flowers

  • A gratitude journal

  • A candle

Your nightstand should feel peaceful when you look at it.

Feng Shui Your Kitchen for Wealth & Abundance

According to Feng Shui, the kitchen is connected to prosperity, nourishment, and financial prosperity.

It also represents how supported you feel in life. The smallest changes in the kitchen can make the biggest of impacts.

Easy Kitchen Feng Shui Tips for Beginners

Keep Your Counters Clear

Cluttered counters create stress and chaotic energy.

You do not need empty counters, but they should feel functional and clean.

Keep only beautiful or useful items visible. This will make you want to cook more!

Focus on Freshness

Fresh energy equals active abundance.

Ideas:

  • Fresh fruit in a bowl

  • Herbs by the window

  • Clean dish towels

  • Fresh flowers

  • Organized pantry shelves

Stale or expired food symbolizes stagnant energy.

Clean Your Fridge Regularly

This is one of the most underrated Feng Shui tips.

Your refrigerator symbolizes stored abundance.

A neglected fridge can energetically reflect overwhelm, scarcity, or depletion.

Even spending 15 minutes cleaning it can create an instant energetic reset.

Use Warm, Inviting Energy

The kitchen should feel nourishing and alive.

Simple upgrades:

  • Warm lighting

  • Wooden accents

  • Natural textures

  • Soft neutral colors

  • Pleasant scents

People are naturally drawn to kitchens with good energy. You will also want to be there more!
