Feng shui for your desktop and studying




Choose the right screen saver:
It should be directly related to the work you would like to be doing. If your business is founded on trust and nurturing, such as nursing, choose a screen saver that conveys warmth and reliability, like a family photo or a picture of your pet.
You can always change your screen saver to nurture your professional goals such as choosing a screen saver with bright colors like red, orange, or pink when you need to make a public presentation. To sharpen your thinking choose a screen saver with lots of grey, white, or pastel colors. Need to gain trust a persons trust, choose an image with lots of earth tones like brown, yellow, and tan. An image with lots of bright energizing colors like green and purple is good when you need ideas for a project. If you feel you need self confidence, choose a screen saver that has lots of dark colors like black, blue, and charcoal. These colors also help develop intuition.

Screen arrangement
Personal files
Keep personal files in a folder at the top right hand corner of your screen. This area governs relationships on your screen. Placing your personal folder here will remind you to keep a balance between your personal and professional lives.

Place your address book in the lower right corner of your desktop. This area represents helpful people. Keeping your business contacts up to date will help you create a pool of reliable, talented people upon whom you can rely. This is also a good spot to place your customer or patient profiles.

Resource materials
Files that you use on a daily basis should be placed in a folder in the center portion of the bottom of your desktop. This spot represents your self esteem. Drawing from this file on a daily basis will bolster your confidence and make it easier to face challenges.

Dreaded projects
Any projects/products that you dread should be placed on the lower left side of your desktop. This area governs wisdom. By treating these projects/products as learning experiences, they can strengthen your performance rather than inhibit it.

Clear your clutter
Keeping your desktop tidy and organized is the best Feng Shui cure of all. A little upkeep can make a big difference in your school/work performance. Go through your files and trash the ones you no longer need and back up the ones you do. Periodically move things around according to priority.

In Feng shui, your environment mirrors who you really are and what you think about yourself. It is best to apply Feng shui to the places and spaces where you spend the most time.
Your study area/ home office
Have have this area as far away from your bedroom as possible.

Try to incorporate a comfortable amount of natural light and fresh air.
Place your desk in a command position. This means you do not have your back facing a door, and not facing a wall when you sit at it. If you must face a wall, have an inspiring feng shui piece of art hung on it.
Sit facing your Fu Wei direction whenever possible. When pursuing educational endeavors, it is best to sleep with your head pointed toward your Fu Wei or Sheng Chi direction. This will help you feel energized and highly motivated. It will also help you attract the attention of the teacher or mentor. Try to sit where you are able to see the door from where sitting. Remove sharp objects from your desk such as cactus plants.
It is better to be to have your back to someone than to be positioned facing another person directly, because facing someone constantly will cause confrontational energies to build up between you and that person.

Placing a pagoda in the northeast corner of your study room or desk will help you sort out priorities and keeps you from being distracted.
In chinese culture, wearing gold jewelry is believed to bring good luck, and when the piece of jewelry is fashioned into an auspicious symbol, the luck is amplified. A gold amulet featuring the four implements required for successful study (a scroll or book, a chess set/piece or an abacus, a musical instrument, and an art brush or art symbol) would be very good luck for a student.
Placing a dragon on the right hand side of your desk facing the window or door is good for prosperity. Wind chimes symbolize money and good chi (healthy energy).
