2. Let there be Light:  The living room should be bright, stimulated with uplifting energies of natural light and layered lighting. If unfortunately, your home is so designed that natural light is missing, this is the place to light it with full-spectrum light bulbs. Nowadays you find energy efficient natural light bulbs which one should use. Keep this light turned on during the day. Light is also associated with the fire element; one of five elements that should be represented in the room for harmony and balance. To improve positive space energies in the living room, try to illuminate dark corners and shadows.

3. Sit in a commanding position: Since the living room is the first room of the home, you should be sitting such that you know what is happening at the front door. Never sit with the main door, behind your back or from where the front door is not visible. While the name “commanding position” is from feng shui it makes you mentally comfortable so is equally applicable in vastu.

4. Diffuse Fragrances: A regular use of aromas can go a long way in creating the mood you desire in the living room. A lot of research has been performed on essential oils and their effects on human mind. For example, the lemon oil helps in enhancing positive mood, wild orange lifts the spirits and boosts the energy. Depending on your requirements diffuse the suitable oil in the living room.

5. Create Balance: Vastu is all about harmony and balance. When decorating your living room ensure that there is no one element overpowering everything else in the room. For example, if you have too much of metal in the furniture try blending it with plants, fluffy pillows, throws to soften the metal.
