1. Check for the Bedroom Arrangements: A bedroom is a place, where moments filled with warmth are nurtured through positive energy in space. But, a bedroom with irregular shapes, awkward corner arrangement or improper placement of mirror or television can turn the table upside down. This imbalance can lead to disturbance in sleep, along with constant disagreement between couples leading to #immature catfights.

Management of clutter and disorganized living spaces can create a sense of disharmony between couples. The best tip to correct this vastu challenge will be to keep your home, specifically your bedroom clutter-free and thoroughly organized to improve the positive energy flow.
3. Unbalanced Elements: The main significance of Vastu is to balance the energy through balancing the five elements. These elements include balancing the chakras and bring in harmonious vibes. This can be best put in place by clearing the negative energy flow things such as cramped spaced, cluttered surroundings and more. Negative energy stagnation in certain areas may force in stress and when the clutter is spread around the bedroom then the couple aura turns negative and fights accumulate in routine.
4. Wrong Selection of light: There has been trend to have dim lighting in a couple’s room on the name of romance, however according to vastu when the house position is thoroughly done and inadequate lightening ruins the spot. Inadequate lightning specially in bedroom of a couple leads to health issues and potential disagreements between partners.

Negative artefacts: It is often believed that the home exhibit the taste of homeowner, but sometime the interest of the landlord is exhibited in the form of Decorative items, artwork, or symbols with negative associations which will inadvertently create an atmosphere of tension and dissatisfaction at home. I generally advise people to depict positive energy paintings such as of holiday photographs to be framed and placed in East of North East (ENE). To strengthen the bond between couples it should be placed in South West. To ignite intimacy in relationship place in North of North West (NNW)

Vastu has been an occult science which has aimed to improve the lifestyle and changed the conflicts into positive relations. It is essential to approach vastu experts with the prominent issues and improve the understanding and concerns as you work together to cultivate through a supportive atmosphere at home.

1. Place a Shiva Ling in the north-east direction of the house on Mahashivratri.

2. Keep the house clean and decorate it with lights, flowers, and rangoli.

3. Offer prayers to Lord Shiva and chant Maha Mrityunjaya Mantra.

4. Donate clothes, food and other items to the needy.

5. Wear all white clothes and smear your forehead with vibhuti.

6. Fast for the entire day and break it at night.

According to Vastu Shastra, the best direction to sleep is South, followed by East. Sleeping in the South direction is believed to bring in wealth and success, while sleeping in the East direction helps in achieving mental peace and fulfills desires.

Are you facing repeated setbacks in your career?

Are you working hard but not getting the kind of progress you desire?

Do you often come across hurdles despite being efficient and proactive at work?

Do you often fall prey to office politics and loose good opportunities?

If you are repeatedly facing these situations in life and career, then it is time to take a look at some of the vastu defects which may be disturbing the energy flow of your home and hence creating troubles at work, whether in job or business.

The following vastu doshas may be hampering your progress at work:

1. Yellow Color in North
One of the single biggest reasons for people who get stuck in their careers and businesses and hence not able to scale up the operations is the presence of yellow colour in the North. There are five elements in nature which form the basis of the creation in the universe. The house is also a combination of five elements. Yellow represents earth element and North is direction of water element which invites money and opportunities of growth into your life. Presence of yellow blocks the flow of vital energies in the North, stopping growth and progress at work.

2. Entrance in South West
An entrance in the South West direction of the house is a strict no, as it is considered to be one of the biggest vastu dosha. Earth element is present in South West direction and hence a symbol of solidity and stability. Thus South West governs financial stability, mental stability and stability in relationships as well as health. An entrance in this direction marks instability as also the energy of Rahu is highly fluctuating in this direction.
3. Toilet in West
Being the direction of profits, gains, motivation as well as expansion, a toilet in this direction causes multiple hurdles in business and other work areas. If you often reach close to the last step of success but then fail to achieve it, a toilet in the west could be one of the reasons.

4. Store in East
East being the direction of the rising sun, it calls for the rays of the sun to illuminate the entire earth, and so do the energies of the East direction which brighten your career and business. A study room in this direction is highly suitable, but not a store room which blocks the energy flow. Powerful connections and strong network is essential for getting ahead in career and hence any energy block in this direction causes one to lose reputation with peers and seniors.

5. Septic Tank in North West
If your boss, employers and colleagues do not support you, your growth will be minimal. The major vastu dosha in North West is presence of septic tank and hence as per the rules, you may never find the support necessary from the right people. In business, this direction helps in getting support from the banks, financial institutions, and financiers.

We all have seen the common sculpture of the laughing buddha in almost every Indian household. But did you know that the custom of keeping this sculpture that symbolizes wisdom and intellect actually belongs to an ancient Chinese practice called feng shui. Slowly and subtly Feng Shui has taken a grip over our Indian culture. Laughing Buddha has replaced our deva of intellect and wisdom- Lord Ganesha, Chinese title immersed in water has replaced out TURTLE which is one of the Avatars of Lord Vishnu, Chinese Wind Chimes has replaced Puja Bell, which produces positive frequencies and vibration and many more.

Over the years, the Chinese culture did not only replace our ancient beliefs but has also made the people vulnerable and easy targets. For example people are oblivious of the fact that another common statue of the Three Legged Frog with a coin can directly affect brain chemistry and contribute to mental instability or the Chinese Dragon Sculpture can have adverse effect like It can cause self-confidence to dwindle. Many great learned people has been warning the world about Feng Shui! By busting myths such as how Chinese coins attract wealth, luck and prosperity, to challenging common beliefs. Remember how once upon a time, people used to stop on the way of a CAT, that CAT crossing the path was considered inauspicious. And now thanks to Feng Shui people pray to the golden effigy of the same cat in the house. It is estimated that only in India, Chinese products has a turnover of more than 10,000 crore rupees and encouraging this foreign practice only acts like a weapon against our own economy.

One must stop and question-why we as Indians who belong to the land of many ancient cultural teaching and have a rich heritage, allow ourselves to fall victims to these foreign cultures. We must take pride in our own beliefs and faith. Therefore, let us all pledge “NOT TO SACRIFICE” our Indian VALUES in the hands of any foreign land. Come join us in our CAMPAIGN to extinguish this Chinese tradition and enlighten our people with the solution called VASTU SHASTRA

It means after a death we all become ONE. One to our creation itself known as ‘Brahma’. This text is written in our various ancient Hindu Veda. Because in our Hindu culture it is always believed that bodies are like clothes which we wear for some time until our energies decay and once death arrives, our soul is finally liberated from the cycles of life & death.

In India, you might have heard stories or even your daadi or naani chanting “Om Shanti” or “Mukti” or “Moksha” on a daily basis because our older generations always knew that we are bound by Karma & Maya in our life and we all will be free to our final liberation that is ‘Jivan Mukti’.

But as the times are changing and English education is becoming a source of learning, we are also adjusting to the westernized culture. That’s why saying “RIP” to someone after their death became a habit in many modern cities. Even many of us are saying without even knowing where it comes from.

So now let’s understand why Hindus should say “Om Shanti” than Rest In Peace after someone dies.

Because in many religions like Christianity people use to say ‘Rest in Peace’ after anyone dies because they believe that after death their souls will wait until ‘Judgement Day arrives. So that’s why they believe the soul must rest in peace until judgment day comes.

But in Hinduism, we always believed in karma & Moksha. That’s why even our last rites that go on for like 13 days are focused to destroy the present life karma and we pray to god to guide the soul (jiva atma) to a better next life in its next birth.

So having such core teachings of life & death, our Hinduism culture always believed that in realizing the true nature of jiva atma & parmatma , our liberation is assured. That’s why we Hindus always say “Om Shanti” which means may this soul attains liberation. Om here means the presence of creator itself & ‘Shanti’ is said for ‘atma’ (soul) to calm down the soul that gets disturbed by the trauma of leaving the body.

Our Hinduism is the oldest culture present on this planet right now so when you are a part of such an old heritage of spiritual and religious teachings, it’s our responsibility to have clarity in our legacy (amaanat) given as culture to us & also teach our children about it.

colors for kitchen as per Vastu serve a dual objective in the overall vastu design of a house.

Firstly they add a dash of elegance and class to your kitchen.

And secondly, if chosen well, kitchen color as per Vastu can really boost the Agni tattva or the fire element in your house.

They are one of the most important aspects when it comes to designing a completely Vastu compliant kitchen.

If you’re designing a new kitchen or are revamping an old one, you’ll find everything related in this article. We’ll cover it all here.

So why should you choose kitchen color as per Vastu?
Choosing the right kitchen color as per Vastu as well as the right bedroom colors as per vastu can help you overcome a lot of life’s challenges and bless your house with health and prosperity.

Here’s how!

In the Hindu culture, the worship and offering of food is highly praised. It is considered to be a divine blessing from Maa Annapurna– the Goddess of food and nourishment. It is believed that she blesses a house with never ending abundance. And therefore, it is of utmost importance that the place where the food is cooked follows the divine laws of nature.

The kitchen in a house is a mini representation of the cosmic fire or Agni. And we all know- as long as the fire keeps burning within us, life exists.

Thus, the way you design your kitchen and the Vastu colors for kitchen you choose will decide whether you kindle the fire of creation or destruction.

Just like it is important to design your bedroom as per vastu, it is equally important to follow proper guidelines while designing your kitchen.

And this is why the importance of kitchen color as per Vastu is much emphasized in Vastu Shastra.

How does wrong kitchen color as per Vastu create problems?
We all know that the entire universe is made up of the five elements. And each element is represented by a particular color and governs a particular direction.

For example, the fire element is indicated by the red and orange color and is the ruler of the South and South East directions. The water element is represented by blue color ruling the North direction and so on.

Now imagine what happens if you paint your South East kitchen blue!

It’s like pouring blue water over red fire.

It will extinguish. Right!

Thus, in order to maintain a proper balance of the five elements, we need to use the correct kitchen color as per Vastu depending on the direction of our kitchen placement.

Vastu colors for kitchen cabinets
Choosing the right Vastu colors for kitchen cabinets is a challenging task.

While doing the vastu for flats, we have observed that people choose the kitchen cabinets depending on what looks good to them. They give no proper thought to the placement of the kitchen.

This is one of the biggest reasons why even a correctly placed kitchen gives bad results. You must select the right kitchen color as per Vastu for the cabinets. This must be done on the basis of the direction and placement of the kitchen. You must also consider the colors of the five elements of nature.

Another rule which you must follow while choosing the Vastu colors for kitchen cabinets is to use natural colors instead of synthetic paints.

And this is the same rule you must follow while choosing the Vastu colors for kitchen walls or kitchen tiles as well.

Natural colors have a high vibrational frequency as compared to synthetic paints which has none.In fact, the use of synthetic Vastu colors for your house is a big Vastu dosha.

Thus, the ideal Vastu colors for kitchen cabinets are the ones which have a balancing effect on different zones and not always the ones which look good to the eyes.

This we realise at the end of every single month when the bank balance is in a dire need of our next pay check and the youngsters who have just started earning, stop going out and the good old ramen packets come to the rescue. So, I am going to tell you a handful of easy tips that anyone can practice to save money.

 For starters try keeping the home locker or the place where you keep money in the north because according to Vaastu, the northern direction is known as the direction of wealth and stability. It also is said to inhabit kuber, lord of wealth and prosperity. However, all the cheque books, passbooks and petty cash should be kept in the west-south west direction as it is recognised for encouraging gain and the practice of saving. Next, make sure that no water taps are leaking as it is direct indication of draining of money and if there is any, it should be replaced or repaired as soon as possible. This way you are not only saving money but also saving water and reducing water wastage which is always a bonus. Moving on, have you ever caught yourself just taking the paper receipt for your recent purchase and just shoving it in your purse along with the change without thinking twice or is there a designated pocket in your handbag that is infamous for having all kinds of bills and random papers dating back a decade ! Its hard to admit but majority of the time this is quite the case, but what people don’t know is that keeping these kinds of torn paper and bills inside the purse attracts unwanted expenses which directly affect your hard work. So start cleaning your purses and wallets on a regular bases and avoid keeping pieces of unwanted receipts. Finally coming to the interiors of the home, not a lot of changes are needed in terms of saving money. It is advised to keep your entrance door decorated in order to attract the prosperity and wealth in your life without any hurdles. The similar principle is behind the practice of decorating the front of the house during Diwali as it is said that goddess Laxmi visits the house and bring wealth and prosperity. Lastly, keeping an owl in the west will insure you will spend your money productively as the owl is revered for its guardianship, and its abundance, which promotes personal development and financial success.

We are all living in a world of struggle and need. In a constant chase for hope and healing, the lives we lived before the pandemic seems like a distant dream. Work from home and online meeting have become the new norm. While everyone is looking for the a physical cure, many don’t even realize to give attention to our mental being. Studies have shown an increase in the number of mental health cases during the span of the Covid pandemic. So, in this article I want to talk about something that should have been addressed a long time ago- mental well being during the pandemic. 

Working from home not only keeps you confide indoors but also brings the stress and pressure of work right at your doorstep. To cope up with this try facing towards the eastern direction while working a sit is known to have a more positive resonance. Also keeping your workplace clean and tidy helps with anxiety and makes you feel at peace. With an untidy work place, the mind comprehends chaos and confusion which is not what you want while trying to meet important deadlines. This will work better if your work space faces the north east direction which according to Vaastu is known as the direction of clarity of mind. Now, we all can agree that working from home has a lot of distraction. From kids running around to the kitchen blender being used and if you live alone, just the pull of our Netflix addiction can easily reduce our productivity. So to increase concentration keep a water source in the north east direction as it is the home of the element water and bring positivity and reduces the chance of loss of focus. If this is not possible you can also keep a glass of water near you while working to gain the same results. Finally, at the end of a long hard working day, one needs to make sure to have a relaxed mind and dispose off any stress before calling it a night. Sleeping with your head towards east or south east is said to be optimal as both these directions stands for a rested, relaxed and refreshed mind. To go an extra mile, you can also have a yellow colour dustbin where you work as it is the colour of disposal.

These are hard times, people have lost their jobs, their livelihood, many have lost their health and many have also lost their loved ones. Living in isolation, helpless and scared is hard and it is natural for our minds to take a hit. Thus these tips can easily be applied by anyone who is currently battling anxiety and stress. It is time to heal not just for our bodies but for our minds too.
