Study Shows the Health Benefits of Following the Interior Building Design of Indian Vastu

Vastu is an Indian philosophy of interior home design to promote well-being. Consider it like Chinese Feng Shui.

MAHARISHI INTERNATIONAL UNIVERSITY recently released a study that analyzed outstanding research on Vastu going back forty years. Some of the finding were,

• Sleeping with one’s head to the east or south is associated with positive health outcomes, such as lower heart rate, blood pressure, and serum cholesterol levels.
• Homes with south entrances are associated with poorer mental health and more financial problems.
• Facing east while working is associated with greater brain coherence and faster task completion.
• Occupants of Maharishi Vastu architecture homes or office buildings show higher creativity and report improved health and quality of life.

The study also confirmed other studies that found interior design can help reduce stress.

Vastu incorporates the following principles,

The building’s main entrance is oriented to the east or north.

The building’s walls align with the cardinal directions.

The floor plan assigns key functions to specific locations within the building.

The floor plan enables occupants to face the most ideal directions during work and sleep.

The architectural plans must adhere to consistent and precise guidelines.

In keeping with the idea of providing a healthy environment, the system emphasizes non-toxic, natural materials, increased fresh air, and reduced electromagnetic radiation.

I would emphasize that EMF's have become one of the most important variables that influences health and well-being. So reduce technology and electrical devices in your home. Technology Kills.

My methodology of space sees the consciousness of a space trumping interior design. My work has consistently found that loving, healing and positive thoughts and actions promote well-being and spiritual development. Just think of how you feel in a toxic environment where violent actions have taken place, or a place where our Mother/Nature has violated, or polluted. No matter how savvy you are with your interior design it will be seriously challenged to overcome a space with negative consciousness,

My view of space places emphasis on the consciousness (is it loving, or is it violent?). A extremely positive vibe will always trump any interior design miscues. That is because as the Hindu and Hermetic traditions say, ENERGY FOLLOWS THOUGHT. Consciousness equates to thought, material objects such as your home and furniture are energy.

Vastu can certainly help tweak your home. Ultimately it is what is in your heart that matters. I have been in many homes that were well designed, pleasing to the eye and had lovely furniture; yet I felt like I was in a refrigerator--cold as hell even if it was sizzling outside. So if you want to improve your home space meditate and pray regularly in all of your homes rooms and on property outside; and build an altar

Remember, IT'S ALL ABOUT THE VIBE!
