Why You Shouldn’t Sleep with Your Feet Toward the Door
In Feng Shui, placing your bed so your feet point directly toward the door is called the “coffin position.” It’s believed to let vital energy (Chi) escape while you sleep, bringing poor rest, stress, and even financial or emotional troubles.
Recommended Bed Placement
-
Place the headboard against a solid wall, away from doors and windows.
-
Avoid having your feet aligned with the door.
-
If you can’t change the bed’s position, use a screen, curtain, or plant as a barrier.
-
Keep the space under the bed clear for better Chi flow.
While there’s no scientific proof, many people report feeling more rested and balanced by following these principles. At the very least, a thoughtful bedroom layout can support comfort and peace of mind.
