There comes a time in everybody’s life when everything seems to be distraught and negative. In those times, positive energy has a vital influence on how we think and react. It is important to surround yourself with positive energy at the time of crisis and Vastu Shastra has been designed specifically for that. 

Vastu Shastra has been an ancient and one of the salient parts of the Indian system for centuries. Its principles aim at creating positive energy of vibration around us and at our homes. The guidelines include making changes in our attitude, renewing or rebooting the energy at our homes, maintaining distance from certain people, and more. 

Since our home is the place where we spend most of our time, it is necessary to create such energy which helps us relax, rest, and rejuvenate. Following Vastu tips for positive energy could help in removing the negativity from our homes, offices, and around us. These tips can help eliminate financial, career, emotional and personal life-related problems. Here are a few Vastu tricks that you should keep up your sleeve such as reorganizing the space, changing colour, and more. 

Salt Therapy

• Salt, apart from all its essential uses, can also be used to remove negative energy from your surrounding space. It acts as a cleanser and removes negativity from around you. Keep a bowl of sea salt in dark nooks and corners of your room or where there is no direct natural light. Keep it for at least 48 hours before you discard the salt as it would have absorbed the negative energy. 
• Use a pinch of sea salt while mopping the floor (except on Thursday). This tip is used to wipe off any negative energy in the house or place of work. 
• One way to keep evil eyes away is to take a pinch of salt and move it over the head of the affected person thrice. Throw away the salt outside after use. 
• Another way to use salt is to place it in a red cloth and hang the cloth in the office. It is believed that it keeps the evil eyes away and helps the office or home overcome poverty by increasing the sale number over a period of time. 

Rearranging

Whenever we feel that a room or space has negative energy we think of replacing the things kept in that room but sometimes all we need to do is rearrange the setting. Professionals recommend that rearranging your furniture or things in a room in a way that does not block the energy could be useful. Rearrange the furniture in your room to allow a better flow of positive energy in the home. 

Clean Entrance

• This is considered to be one of the most important tips. Cleaning the entrance of your house does not only remove negative energy but also creates a good first impression on your guests. To make your entrance look more welcoming you can add small plants, flowers, and accessories. 
• Use a mixture of white vinegar, lemon juice, and salt to wipe the windows and door knobs. 
• Your house’s entrance is the place from where the energy flows into the rest of the house. Decorate your entrance to attract positive vibes. 

Use Wind Chimes

It is believed that the use of wind chimes helps in keeping the negative energy away from the house or office premises. So, when the wind chimes tinkles it breaks the flow of negative energy, promoting the flow of positivity. 

Increase the Air Circulation

It is important to maintain a circulation of air and let the fresh air indoors. You should do this religiously even for a short period of time. Do this even in winters when the air is cold. Allow the natural sunlight to enter your house and room by opening the windows and drawing the curtains. Since they are God’s gift and natural, sunlight and fresh air are the best way to bring in positive energy at home. 

Use of Lemons

Keep lemon in a jar full of water to keep the negative energy away from your room or house. You should replace the water every Saturday to ensure that this trick gives results. 

Pictures, Symbols, and Idols

Crystals and Colours

Colours play an important role in the energies that exist within a room. According to Vastu Shastra, there are some colours that have a greater impact on inviting positive vibrations at home. Each colour has a role to play in each direction of the house. For example, dark blue is the ideal colour for the West. However, if your house is painted with anti-colour it is bound to attract negativity. 

Do not Clutter

It is not considered ideal to collect a lot of things, especially the ones we don’t need at all. A tranquil home attracts positive vibrations and is one that is clean, neat, and well organized. So, if you have fewer things to organize, your space will be positive and you will be able to maintain positive vibrations in the house. 

Add a Touch of Nature

Plants are believed to carry a lot of positive energy. So add this touch of nature to your home and see the difference for yourself. Plant small plants or flowers in the outdoors. You can also go for indoor plants that do not require much maintenance or water. Choose the plants that are easy to take care of. Fresh and beautiful plants will attract positive energy. 

Mirrors as a Decor

Apart from making a room look bigger and brighter, a mirror is also used as a Vastu Shastra tool to remove any defect from a particular area. Mirrors reflect positive energy and absorb negative energy as well. Make sure that you consult with a professional before deciding the place for your mirror. According to Vastu, it is suggested not to place the mirror while it faces the main entrance or in the bedroom spot where it reflects the bed. 

Fragrant Air

If you have been experiencing negative vibes in your house then you need to fill the air with fragrant aromas which are refreshing. You can also use aromatic oil diffusers or fresh flower arrangements to increase the good energy in the room. 

Clean and Clear

It is very important to clean your house thoroughly and regularly which helps in removing the negative energy. Not only will the cleaners clear the dust and germs but the fragrances of the cleaners will fill the room with aromas making it refreshing. 

Burn Agarbattis and Sage

• Light Dhoop and Agarbatti (incense sticks) to amplify the positive vibrations in the room. If you take the dhoop/agarbatti to every corner of the room, twice a day, it will help in the reduction of the negative energies and also help in promoting an energetic lifestyle. 
• Burn sage or smudge sticks and spread its smoke in every direction in an anti-clockwise direction to remove negative energy from the room. 

Vastu for Bedroom

• If the relationship between a wife and husband is on the rocks and everything is not well in paradise then keeping a piece of rock salt in the corner of the bed will be helpful. This could help resolve mental disturbances and conflicts. 
• The position and direction of the bed affect your sleep and the relaxation you get. Make sure that your bed is placed in such a way that your head is not pointing towards the North. According to Vastu, ideally, the headboard should be in the East direction so that when you lie down your feet points toward the West.
