Vaastu for Better Sleep

Sleep problems are common in busy modern life. Vaastu offers simple changes to the bedroom that can support deep, restful sleep.

Sleeping direction

Sleep with your head towards the south for the deepest rest, or towards the east for clarity. Avoid sleeping with your head towards the north.

Bedroom arrangement

  • Bed against a solid wall, not under a window or beam.
  • No mirror facing the bed.
  • Keep phones, laptops and TVs out of the bedroom, or switch them off at night.
  • Avoid clutter and storage under the bed.

Colours and lighting

  • Soft, calm colours such as light blue, light green, cream and pink.
  • Dim, warm lights in the evening.
  • Dark curtains to block outside light at night.

Calming habits

A bowl of sea salt under the bed, lavender or sandalwood fragrance, and a short prayer or breathing exercise before sleep are traditional aids to restful sleep.
