Feng Shui Desk Placement

Where your desk faces shapes how your body holds focus. Feng Shui treats this as a practical question, not a mystical one: nothing dramatic, just less friction over the course of a day.

The command position

1. You should be able to see the door without facing it directly.
2. Your back should face a solid wall, never a window.
3. Your screen should not be silhouetted against bright daylight.

Direction matters less than you think

Many guides spend pages debating "which compass direction is best for me". The bigger gains usually come from the items above plus reasonable lighting. If you want a personalised direction tied to your chart, our lucky direction calculator will cover it.

What clutters focus, fast

• Visible cables.
• Open notifications in your peripheral vision.
• A chair that forces you to lean forward.
• A second monitor pointing at a wall instead of your eyes.
