1. Laying the right foundation: Worshipping the land on which one is going to build his/her house is considered to be the first step towards making your home Vaastu-friendly. It is recommended to have a “Bhoomi Pujan” ceremony before commencing construction.

2. Entrance: The entrance to your home is one of the most important factors that determine the channelization of negative or positive energies into your home. In order to usher in energy and liveliness into your household, the entrance door to the home should ideally be facing the east. While doors facing northwards to east also drive positivity into the homes, those facing south are discouraged as they carry in energies of misfortune, illness and anger.

3. Kitchen: In order to maximize the inflow of positive energies into your home and promote a sense of well-being within the household, the kitchen should ideally be located towards the south east corner of the home. It is also important to be facing towards the east when cooking food in the kitchen, and therefore the placement of equipment should be done accordingly.

4. Bedroom: As a general rule, the doors of the bedroom should open 90 degrees or more; this is to allow maximum passage of positive energy into the bedroom. The mirrors in the bedroom should not be facing the bed directly on the north side, as it will lead to reflection of worrying thoughts back onto you. It is also important that the bedroom should have enough open space and be free from any clutter as an unorganized bedroom magnetizes negative vibes.

5. Living Room: As the living room is frequented not only by the members of the house but also other folks visiting the home, it brings a lot of outside energy into the household. Hence, it is important to ward off any potential negativity that may enter the home. As a general rule, face towards the north or east while guests are in your living room, who should in turn be seated facing towards the south or west.
