Feng Shui is an ancient Chinese art that claims that the configuration of buildings, objects, and spaces can affect your everyday life.
Those who practice the tradition follow specific configuration guidelines to achieve balance and harmony in their lives.
“Three things I will never allow in my bedroom as a feng shui professional,” Gemma said as she shared her guide to TikTok.
The first object she told her followers to get rid of is a television, stating that the energy radiated from the screen can cause health problems, sleep disorders and intimacy problems.

“The screen acts like a mirror, bouncing energy around the room at night, leading to poor sleep quality and health issues, and it can also cause intimacy issues between a couple,” she said.
Jemma also advised against having plants in the bedroom because they “just have too much yang energy.”
Feng Shui focuses on the balance between yin and yang energy, yin is passive and calm while yang is active.
“A bedroom is meant to be a calm, soothing tranquil yin environment. So if you’re not sleeping well, that could be the reason,” she said.
The last thing she said you should never have is an aquarium or fish tank.
“They might look cool, but there’s way too much yang energy in them, too,” she explained.
Three things you should never have in your room:
1. Television – the energy radiated from the screen can cause health problems, sleep disorders and intimacy problems.
2. Plants – they have too much active yang energy.
3. Aquariums or open water sources – they have yang energy, and open water sources can activate negative energy.
Jemma added that even without yang energy, open water sources can “activate negative energy.”
“Not that I have a mirror, a TV, and plants around my bed,” said one woman, echoing the thoughts of many others who admitted they owned at least one of the items.
“Me with three aquariums in my room,” said another.
Several people have complained that it’s “impossible” to feng shui your bedroom if you live in a studio.
Many people disagreed with Jemma’s claim that plants are bad for you.
“I don’t agree with the plants…I started sleeping better after adding a ton of plants to my room,” said one woman.
