In China, the position in which a person’s feet directly face the door, is considered a death position. In fact, dead bodies are kept in this position, which is considered good for them. But at the same time, it is an extremely harmful position for the living.

While sleeping it is necessary to make sure that neither a person’s head, nor his feet, are directly in front of the door. This is a yin position, and can have extremely bad effects on the person. It is best to place the bed either to the right or left of the door.
