The principles of Feng Shui are all based on positive and negative energies and how to utilize these energies to benefit in life. There are ways to approach Feng Shui clutter clearing in order to relieve the area of negative or stagnant energies that may have accumulated there.

It is quite unsightly as well as energy draining to keep looking at the same mess over and over again without knowing what to do with it. The main problem, however, is actually getting started and actually taking the effort to do something about it.

Clearing clutter is time consuming and it takes a lot of emotion in order to find the actual will and energy to do it. However, the clearing process in itself can be therapeutic and somewhat relieving once it is done using the principles of Feng Shui.

The first area to start with when it comes to clearing and cleaning is the place where one should be more relaxed and comfortable, the bedroom. This is the place where energies have to be free flowing as this is the place for winding down, relaxing, and healing. The area under the bed would be a good place to start clearing things up.

Energy can also be blocked when there are many distractions inside the bedroom, so it is advisable to remove the electronic and exercise equipment that can just add to stress instead of being in a place to relax and recharge. Also, the balance and harmony depends upon the placement of the bed inside the room as this can maintain the balance of energies when a person is asleep.

The kitchen is the place of overall health, and this should be the next step in cleaning and clearing of negative influences. Cleaning out the drawers of unnecessary items that just clutter them up is a good place to start. Then cleaning all the cooking utensils, pots and pans, and stove can encourage positive flow of energies in this area, and this is important to keep away possible diseases.

The receiving area of a home is also very important as this is also the first place that energies enter a home in order to find their flow within your home. If the entrance door is blocked by potted plants or any other pieces of furniture, this may block the flow of energies. It is best to keep this clear as well as the hallway closet in order to allow for free flow of Chi.

There is really no negotiation of items that “might be useful in the future” in home clearing, because this defeats the purpose of keeping the area cleared for the positive energy to flow through. Any thoughts of keeping something because it might have use someday is just a way of not letting go of the past and moving forward which is the one main point of feng shui. One must always maintain current items within the home that can greatly influence positive change.

The clutter that is found in a home can really have bad effects on the overall flow of energies in a home that would otherwise be positive. Many continuously successful people prefer to have spacious, well organized homes, which is something to keep in mind when attacking that pile of unwanted clutter.
