Sleeping With Feet Facing The Door Is Unhealthy?
As kids, we were never allowed to do anything against the wishes, rather superstitions, of our elders. We were told and cautioned to do the right thing at all times.
Most of you would be familiar with the saying, "Don't shake your legs while sitting." or "Never keep an open vessel upside down," etc.
You would have also come across elders deciding which is the right position to sleep in and where the bed should be placed in the bedroom. Though this may sound really silly, it is true that placing the bed in the wrong direction is not good for your health.
According to religious beliefs, it is all the more unhealthy when one sleeps with his/her feet facing the entrance door or, for a matter of fact, any door in the bedroom.
According to ancient beliefs, sleeping with your feet facing the door only attracted death! Yes, scriptures state that when you sleep with your feet facing any of the doors in the bedroom, it could make you fall ill.
It is also linked to the way the dead sleep, which makes this belief all the more stronger for you to believe it to be true.
If you are sleeping with your feet facing the door, here is what you need to do to safeguard your health.
Where
Should
You
Position
The
Bed?
To
stay
healthy,
the
bed
should
be
positioned
away
from
the
door
and
your
feet
should
be
facing
elsewhere.
Why
Is
It
Unhealthy?
While
sleeping,
the
body
releases
positive
'chi'
allover
your
body
that
heals
you
both
from
the
inside
and
outside;
so
when
the
feet
is
facing
the
door,
all
the
'chi'
power
or
vibration
would
rush
out
of
the
room,
thus
making
you
fall
ill
often.
What
Is
Chi?
A
body's
positive
'Chi'
is
most
vulnerable
to
the
evil
'Chi'
when
they
have
an
easy
access.
With
your
feet
facing
the
door,
your
body
becomes
the
softest
target
for
an
evil
'chi';
which
can
be
fatal
to
an
extent.
What
Happens
To
The
Soul
In
The
Body?
It
is
believed
that
one's
soul
becomes
a
defenseless
target
to
the
negative
'chi',
which
attracts
them
to
slide
away
from
the
body
when
the
body
is
resting
or
in
a
state
of
deep
sleep.
So,
sleeping
with
your
feet
facing
the
door
will
only
make
your
body
feel
all
the
more
defenseless.
Which
Should
Be
The
Correct
Placement
Of
Your
Bed?
Be
it
a
bathroom
door
or
a
verandah
door,
a
person
should
avoid
sleeping
with
the
feet
facing
the
doors.
In
case
of
construction
restraints,
make
sure
to
place
the
bed
and
permanently
shut
the
door;
blocking
any
kind
of
'Chi'
from
entering
the
room.
By
following
this
superstition,
you
will
be
able
to
live
a
healthier
and
a
better
lifestyle.
What
Health
Issue
Can
This
Superstition
Prevent?
If
you
follow
this
superstition
or
Feng
Shui
of
not
sleeping
with
your
feet
facing
the
door,
never
again
will
you
witness
any
pain
in
your
body.
You
will
soon
be
relieved
from
headaches
and
body
aches
too.
