Follow these Vaastu tips to create a harmonious and conducive work environment that supports productivity, creativity, and well-being in your office workstation.
1. Position of Workstation
Place your workstation in the western or southern part of the office. Avoid sitting directly under a beam. Ensure you face either north or east while working, as these are considered auspicious directions.
2. Desk Arrangement
Keep your desk clean, clutter-free, and organised to allow smooth energy flow around your workspace. Avoid having sharp edges or corners of furniture pointing towards you.
3. Chair Placement
Sit in a high-back chair for support and stability. The back of the chair should be solid and preferably made of wood.
4. Use of Colors
Choose calming and neutral colors for your workstation, like white, cream, light blue, or light green. Avoid using dark and aggressive colors which may induce stress.
5. Lighting
Ensure there is ample natural light in the office. Natural light promotes positivity and energy. Use soft and indirect lighting to avoid glare on your computer screen.
6. Decor and Plants
Decorate your workspace with positive symbols, inspirational quotes, or images that promote productivity. Place indoor plants like money plant, peace lily, or bamboo plant to purify the air and enhance positive energy.
7. Electronics and Wiring
Keep electronic gadgets and wires well-organised to avoid clutter and confusion. Ensure that all electronic equipment is in good working condition to prevent interruptions.
8. Personal Items
Keep personal items like family photos or small decorative pieces that bring joy and motivation. Avoid keeping items that hold negative memories or emotions.
9. Feng Shui Enhancements
Incorporate Feng Shui elements like a small water fountain (symbolizing prosperity) or a crystal (for clarity and focus). Place a laughing Buddha figurine facing the entrance to attract positive energy.
10. Personal Well-being
Take short breaks and stretch regularly to maintain good health and energy levels. Stay hydrated and keep healthy snacks nearby to stay refreshed throughout the day.
