The Feng Shui Risk of Sleeping Under a Window (And How to Fix It)
In Feng Shui, placing the head of your bed directly under a window is generally considered unfavorable. The practice emphasizes having a "solid backing" - meaning your headboard should rest against a sturdy wall. This setup symbolically brings supportive mentors into your career and life, providing a deep sense of security. Sleeping under an open window instead can lead to financial leakage and invite unwanted office politics or "backstabbing." Practically, the outside light, noise, and drafts will disrupt your sleep cycles, leading to constant fatigue and anxiety.
Best moves
The Fix: The ultimate support is to relocate your bed. If that's not an option, make sure to draw heavy blackout curtains completely closed while sleeping. You can also place a heavy, natural grounding stone or large crystal on the windowsill to act as an "artificial mountain," anchoring and protecting the energy behind you.
