In my home, as you enter the house, there is a brick wall entranceway that is positioned directly in front of you. While the brick is a beautiful color, I found the foyer and entranceway to be rather depressing when I entered my home. As a result, I made a point to always enter the house through the garage so as to avoid this negative effect of the front bricked area.

Then I discovered Feng Shui techniques in home decorating. Using Feng Shui, I have transformed various areas of my home into an oasis of relaxation and serenity. While the entranceway is a challenge, I found some useful techniques to bring out the feeling of relaxation and, now, enter my home through the front door.

The entranceway into my home is brick and leads into a sunken living room. This brick wall entranceway is actually the same wall of the fireplace, located in the living room. So, to remove this brick walled entranceway would be impossible. Instead, to create the Feng Shui connection to my front door and entranceway, I began by placing a full length mirror on the brick wall, directly in front of the entry door to the home. In doing this, I found it boosted energy levels as I entered the door.

In addition to the hung mirror, I placed recessed lighting in the entranceway to ensure the area is well lit and does not appear dreary and dark. The entry table that was once located in the brick entranceway is now removed. As a result, I now have a front brick entranceway without clutter, without furniture and full of lighting. As you enter the door, there is a sense of openness and welcome.

Without these transformations of Feng Shui into my brick entranceway, I learned my home was a breeding ground for health complications including headaches and neck pain coupled with a sense of confusion and inhibited assertiveness. Since these changes occurred, I feel an overwhelming sense of calmness and, must admit, my migraine headache pain has been relieved, to some extent.
