Ever wonder why, despite all your efforts, your kid doesn’t score well in the exams or whenever you sit down to work or study, you find it hard to concentrate? Then this may be an impact of Vastu dosha. Here’s all you need to know about it. There’s no denying that while creating a study room, we often focus on the aesthetics or lighting, but we often tend to overlook the Vastu aspects, which eventually impact focus, concentration and success. Here are some simple and practical tips to attract positive vibrations to your study room and remove distractions and boost concentration.Ideal room locationThe best place for a study room is in the northeast, east or north part of the house. These areas are said to bring in clarity and wisdom according to Vaastu. The west direction is also okay. Try to avoid the south or southeast corners, as they can make you feel restless.
Avoiding ClutterKeep your study room clean. Organize it every day as clutter can block energy and make you lose focus. Store things you do not need elsewhere and keep your room tidy. This helps you remember things better and come up with ideas.
Study table directionWhen you are studying, it is best to face east or north. This way you can get some morning sunlight. Stay sharp. Put your study table in the part of the room with a solid wall behind you for support and stability.Table and chair setupChoose a study table that’s square or rectangular and made of wood. Avoid tables with shapes. Make sure there is space in front of the table and do not push it against a wall.Colors the wallsUse light and soothing colors for the walls like white pale yellow, cream or light green. These colors make the room look bigger and help you relax. Do not use colors like black, red or grey as they can make you feel stressed.Furniture placementPut your bookshelves on the north walls. Place your computer or other electronics in the southeast or northwest part of the room. Keep the room clutter-free and make sure there are no beams hanging overhead.
Lighting and ventilationTry to get as much natural light as possible from the east or north windows. This brings in energy. Use a table lamp on the side of your table with soft yellow or white light. Good airflow is also important so open your windows every day.Decor and accessoriesHang inspiring pictures, like sunrises, waterfalls or galloping horses on the east or north wall. Add some air-purifying plants, like tulsi or bamboo, in the part of the room. Avoid putting up mirrors, water features or heavy idols, as they can distract you.
