🛏️ Feng Shui Remedy #2/365 – Avoid the Coffin Position(Your Feet Facing the Door)

🌙 Introduction

Have you ever wondered why you sometimes wake up feeling tired even after a full night’s sleep? In Feng Shui, your sleep quality isn’t just about your mattress — it’s about energy flow.

One of the most common yet overlooked mistakes in bedroom Feng Shui is sleeping with your feet directly facing the door.This is called the “Coffin Position”, and it’s believed to drain your life force energy (Chi) while you rest.

Let’s understand the reason behind this belief — and simple ways to fix it without moving houses!

⚰️ Why It’s Called the “Coffin Position”

In traditional Feng Shui (and ancient Chinese customs), the position where a person’s feet directly face the door resembled how a body is carried out after death — feet first. Energetically, this posture symbolizes energy flowing out of your body while you sleep, just as it flows out of the room through the door.

That constant outward pull can lead to:

• Restless sleep or vivid dreams

• Low vitality or fatigue

• Feeling ungrounded or anxious upon waking

Feng Shui interprets this as your Chi being drawn away instead of being replenished.

🛡️ The Science Behind the Symbolism

Even from a practical viewpoint, this makes sense. When your bed directly aligns with the door, your body becomes exposed to:

• Sudden light or movement from outside the room

• Direct drafts or airflow from corridors

• A subconscious feeling of vulnerability — since you can’t fully relax when your energy “faces the exit”

So whether you believe in ancient symbolism or simply want better rest, it’s worth paying attention to this alignment.

🔄 The Simple Feng Shui Fix

The goal is to see the door, but not be directly in line with it.

Here’s how to correct it easily:

✅ Reposition your bed so that it’s diagonal to the door — this gives you visibility and control (the Command Position) while staying out of the energy path.

✅ If you can’t move the bed, create a soft energetic barrier:

• Use a footboard, low bench, or rug to “slow” the Chi flow.

• You can even hang a light fabric curtain or room divider to separate your bed from the door line.

• Add furniture or plants near the door to block direct energy flow toward your bed’s feet.

✅ Keep doors closed while you sleep — especially bedroom and bathroom doors. It protects your personal Chi and promotes calm.

🌿 Bonus Feng Shui Tip for Better Sleep

Your bed should have:

• A solid wall behind the headboard (symbolizing support)

• Balanced bedside tables on each side (for stability)

• No mirrors directly facing the bed — they bounce energy and can disturb rest

• Keep the space under the bed clutter-free to allow smooth energy flow.

• Use calming colors like soft blues, greens, or neutrals.

• Ensure good ventilation and natural light during the day.

Together, these simple tweaks strengthen your protective energy bubble while you sleep.
