Do you believe in Feng Shui? Experts say these are three things you should not keep next to your bed.

Feng Shui is a traditional Chinese philosophy that emphasises the thoughtful placement of structures, furnishings, and spaces to promote balance and harmony in one’s environment.

Rooted in the idea that our surroundings affect our physical and emotional well-being, this practice seeks to optimise the flow of energy—known as "qi"—to enhance health, prosperity, and overall quality of life.

The term "Feng Shui" means "wind and water," and its principles are guided by the five natural elements (wood, fire, earth, metal, and water) along with the interplay of yin and yang to foster a harmonious energy flow.
