Here are 5 tips to enhance the energy in your bedroom for better sleep:

Optimal Bedroom Direction: Place the bedroom in the south-west part of the house to promote health and prosperity. Avoid the north-east and south-east zones, as they can lead to health issues and relationship conflicts, respectively. Position the bed in the south-west corner with your head facing west.
