Feng Shui. It's talked about a lot, but so few people really understand it's true meaning. But whether you're a skeptic or a fan, the practical foundation of feng shui is just good, old-fashioned, practical common sense. And when you can approach it from this down-to-earth way, your results can truly be outstanding!

Feng shui is manifesting at it's best. It's a way of inspiring our minds to think more about what we DO want, and less about what we don't. When we create a bedroom that's already built for our perfect partner, we're more likely to bring that person into our life. Here are 10 quick feng shui tips to help add a spark to your current relationship, or help bring in the partner of your dreams.

1. REMOVE ALL LONELY, SOLITARY OR DEPRESSING ARTWORK

Objects that remind us of being alone can keep us stuck in solitary relationship patterns.

2. INCORPORATE SETS OF TWO'S

By placing objects together in sets of two, it inspires thoughts of partnership and togetherness.

3. ADD ROMANTIC IMAGERY

Bringing in sculptures, artwork, photos or objects that inspire thoughts of love and romance can bring a sizzling spark to an otherwise loveless space.

4. CREATE A ROMANTIC ENVIRONMENT

Adding things like candles, soft fabrics, tactile surfaces, warm, sensual scents, soothing sounds and mood lighting can heat up a cold environment.

5. INTRODUCE SENSUAL COLORS

Using warmer skin tones or fiery colors into your space, especially your bedroom, can add warmth and inspire sensuality and intimacy.

6. REMOVE DISTRACTIONS

Keep televisions and exercise equipment out of the bedroom or keep them covered behind screens or in cabinets. These things can distract you from the business at hand: ROMANCE!

7. FRESHEN UP THE ENERGY

Try replacing your bedding each year to keep the bedroom energy fresh and alive. Another great rule of thumb: replace your mattress after every major relationship so the energy of your past doesn't end up haunting your future relationships!

8. REMOVE ALL THE BLOCKS

Remove any blocks that you may have unconsciously placed into your home. Look for clutter behind doors, cabinets or dressers placed in tight hallways, or furniture arranged awkwardly so that it's difficult to maneuver. All these things can unconsciously sabotage relationship efforts.

9. LET GO OF THE OLD TO MAKE WAY FOR THE NEW

Holding onto old, depressing love letters or sad memorabilia and nick-knacks locks stagnant or negative energy into our home and life. By releasing these, and only surrounding ourselves with things that inspire us forward into our ideal future, we can easy manifest the partner of our dreams.

10. BUILD A ROOM FOR TWO

As they say, "If you build it, they will come". Same goes for bedrooms. Make sure the room is built for two: equal space on either side of the bed, two nightstands, two lamps, and a nice sturdy headboard to support a relationship.
