The time has come! The long awaited transition from "womb to room" is one you have anxiously anticipated and revered at the same time. Likely you are rushing to complete the final preparations for the nursery, completing projects and stocking up on essentials. The advent of your new arrival definitely ups the vibration in your home and necessitates thinking of ways to bring balance to your life at this exciting time.
The 3,000 year-old Chinese art of feng shui is all about harmony and balance. Paramount to feng shui is the flow of chi or energy and its affects on the environment and the people living there.

The following nine tips will help you create a sacred place and healing space:
1- Location
Choose which room you will use for a nursery wisely. To provide a solid foundation for your baby, do not choose a room located over a garage or a storage area or a room that shares a wall with a bathroom or storage closet. Do choose a room with a window for adequate natural light and chi movement.
2- Preparation
Providing an energetically clear room is essential for your baby. You can accomplish this prior to the baby's arrival by opening windows, spritzing therapeutic grade essential oils around the room, and wiping surfaces with water imbued with citrus oils.
3- Color
Contrary to the Western decor trends of primary colors in a nursery, feng shui suggests the use of pastels. Paint the walls a soft green, blue or pink and keep the ceiling white. When the walls and ceiling are painted the same color, the energy gets "boxed in" and doesn't flow.
Choose non-toxic paints and natural materials to improve the air quality in the nursery.
4 - Themes & Motifs
Avoid patterns and graphics with ferocious looking animals and those containing points such as arrows, crosses, triangles or diamonds. Choose "green" or natural bedding, linens and disposable products when available. Overall, babies benefit from soft surfaces and pleasing, subtle patterns.
5 - Furnishings
Keep the furniture light in weight and color. Ensure that there are no sharp points or pointed objects in the room or on the corners of the furniture. Be mindful of furniture used by others. Think about the situation - is the furniture a hand-me-down from a happy person or not? In any event clear the energies of the furniture by wiping it with citrus oil water.
Do place a rocker or comfortable chair in a cozy corner of the nursery to provide the feeling of safety and protection while nurturing your baby.
6 - Lighting
As Goldilocks may have wanted her room--not too bright, not to dim, but just right, soft lighting is beneficial to creating a gentle, stimulating room for your baby.
7 - Sound
Eliminating electrical magnetic fields (EMF's) by banning electronic items in the nursery creates a soothing environment. Although you may not notice the subtle "hum" of electronics it exists and is known to disturb the energy in the room.
8 - Movement
Mobiles do have their place in the nursery as they provide stimulation for your baby. An auspicious placement is key however to maintaining a restful environment, so do place the mobile over the changing table and not over the crib.
9 - Clutter-free
I saved the number one rule of feng shui for last. Why is a clutter-free environment the "big buzz" you may ask? Clutter creates a chaotic environment, collects dust and causes the energy to become stagnant and negative. Besides if not before the new baby arrives, when will you get your stuff under control?
Overall, remember that bringing your new child home is a holistic event that involves baby, parents and siblings. Practice the ways of feng shui to ease the transition from "womb to room," and, your home will be blessed with balance and harmony. So breath and "be" the happiness that you want for your new baby.
Energy Increasing Tips (or Nesting, Resting & Living Tips):
For Mom: Store all unfinished projects out of sight so you can devote your time and energy to your new baby and family without the nagging reminder of "should do's."
For Dad: Make a check list of tasks that you can help with to keep things running smoothly and place it on the refrigerator for easy review. Having the list ready and visible helps to eliminate the pressure of repeatedly asking how you can help and minimizes the chat about what needs to be done.
For Siblings: Include siblings in the nesting preparations by helping them organize their rooms before the baby's arrival.
Remember...keep your chi rising! Yarrow
