House Plants In Winter

PEACE LILLY

Houseplants are vital for keeping our health and at this time of the year when we are locked in doors with all doors and windows closed for most part of the day because of the winter months.

Healthy green plants with round or succulent leaves are great feng shui enhancements for different parts of the home. They give out oxygen as part of their growing process, making the atmosphere feel more clean, clear and relaxed. Many familiar houseplants like the rubber tree plant and gerbera are excellent at absorbing and neutralizing common indoor pollutants in the air. As energizers they can be placed in dark, corners to increase the energy flow there.

Placing houseplants like peace lilies, peperomias and goosefoot plants near electrical equipment will help to balance the effects of the electromagnetic fields (EMFs) that they emit.

A jade plant or money tree can help to increase your fortunes when you put it in your Wealth and Prosperity space in the southeast of your rooms. Watch how it grows, as it supposed to mirror your fortunes.

To enhance the Wood element in your home or office, put plants in the east, your Family and Health space, and in the southeast, your Wealth and Prosperity area. They can also boost the energy in your Recognition and Fame space in the south as Wood feeds Fire in the Productive element cycle.

Remember Wood is one of the five elements of feng shui and is very important for harmony and balance in the home.
