- Here is a clear visual explanation of the difference between good and bad chi (also known as Qi) which is the energy in a space in Feng shui. this is very very basic, and does not cover everything, but I hope it is at least helpful for the newer ones out there!
Please feel free to ask me any questions in the comments section! Please comment on what else you'd like to see, most of my videos are on Tiktok, but here is where I do not need to rush! :) - Хобби
I prefer your videos on here! The music on TikTok is distracting, and I’m actually very interested in what you discuss!
Thank you! RUclips is definitely easier to explain, and is less entertainment but info, I will work on it ,but I appreciate your comment!:)
@@DearModern Longer videos are sometimes better too
I hate tik tok
As someone with a bit of lay-knowledge of fluid dynamics, it helped me to understand good chi as being more 'turbulent' and bad chi as more 'streamlined', despite the connotations of those usually being reversed. Which makes sense, when you think about the fact that airplanes and living spaces are generally designed with opposite objectives in mind. An airplane is designed to move as many people as possible as quickly as possible while still being safe - comfort is the last priority. A home ought to be designed with as many areas as possible that you can comfortably dwell in for a while and feel safe, because the main priorities are protection and comfort.
Idk about turbulent. It's like, you don't want standing water or raging rapids or a dangerous undercurrent. You want a gentle stream
Yeah, I’d rather be enveloped in slow rolling clouds than be launched off a water fall, personally.
@@karakaaa3371 Turbulence is independent of flow rate. Slow moving fluids can still be very turbulent
I think if we think about it in fluid dynamic terms, the characterisation of the chi as good or bad would depend more on flow rate rather than level of turbulence. I propose that you want to arrange things in such a way that the flow rate is matched for a given area's purpose. Not so fast as to create anxiety but not so slow as to be lonely and dull. Or maybe flux would be a better measure? Creating turbulence would then be a means to an end, rather than the end itself.
Consider it in terms of skyscraper design - you want to avoid having strong wind forces around your skyscraper, as that can stress specific bits of the building, so you can design for turbulent flow to minimise the strength of the forces - which might align with some of the things you want to do with the energy you feel in a room
😂 i can’t!
I was watching with subtitles, and it was all about “different cheese,
creating good or bad cheese, and gucci!”
😂 the subtitles clearly know nothing about Feng Shui 😅
Lol!
“Controlling batshit”
I should not have turned the subtitles on.
@@jaslynlee4405 "controling batshit and make it positive" 😂 if only we had this power
I definitely need some Gucci by making an entrance!
Finally someone who loves feng shui as much as me!! I feel like a total nut but I can't stop thinking about how fitting parts together and getting flow right changes your life.
It doesn’t. Different lighting and different room layouts can have different effects on a person’s psyche, but Chi energy isn’t real. Feng Shui describes real psychological phenomena as a spiritual energy having these effects.
@@williamjosephwebster7860 you sound very puritan, fits with your name
@@bignog9840 bignog sounds like the name of someone who would believe in feng shui and healing crystals.
@@williamjosephwebster7860Does it matter? If it feels good, it feels good.
Love your videos. I have one request/suggestion: to make sure the rooms designs are practical and 'healthy', following feng shui principles. For example, you divided the rooms to reduce bad chi, which protects the bedroom, which is good. However, the rooms themselves would then be difficult to move through as the divider takes up a lot of space to block the chi.
I also appreciate that your designs are just models and not the reality of a real-life situation. Still, it is just a thought I have been adding recently when breaking down large spaces into separate ones that you then can create 'congestion' of chi in the areas around the dividers. :D
Let me know what you think :)
Thanks for your comment! Indeed things can definitely be improved, and I personally try to avoid partitions where I can. I plan to do longer, more thorough videos here, though I'm alittle tied up with some writing, but by April or May I will make something proper!:)
Are you writing a Feng Shui book on tips for us ? Hope so.
@@cc6861he has indeed released a book 🎉
Your videos are SO HELPFUL!!! You do such a great job of explaining & teaching us--it always make sense. I am very grateful for the time & effort you put into each video. THANK YOU!!!
Very informative. This is also very relaxing to listen to. ASMR vibes. Looking forward to more!
The furnitures are so cute🥰! You are my favorite!
I love your videos, you explain things clear.
Very helpful with your detailed explanations. Thank you.
Thanks Laura, I hope to untangle most of this!
This is really helpful! Thank you!
I’d love to know if you have info about chi in the garden/landscape planning!
That's was really helpful, thank you ! I was wondering if you do allot for adhd people. Could you d a video about how to help with depression what colors to work with, and such? Is it true to avoid dark colors, or does it depend on what they are? I appreciate your videos, and it it would be great to hear from you, Cliff😌
Places roomdivider, no space is left to get to the bedroom-part except by climbing over the furniture itself... yup THAT will break up the chi (and your ankles on a clumsy night).
You can always align it more to the wall behind.
Hi Dear modern,
Just discovered you're channel and I love it! Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
It could be fun to see you layout a Yurt.
I don't have any specifics in mind, such as how many is going to live there. Because I was just thinking the circular room could be a fun challenge.
Cheers and thanks for your videos again :)
I like how present it. Very visual
Amazing videos man! I watch every one and really am learning a lot from every video you post🥳
At some point he started talking about good and bad cheese
If i give you my house / room plan, can you arrange the sofa / bed / wardrobe etc?
You videos are so informative.. I live in a studio apartment, I’m having difficulty of laying out the furniture. I got rid of the bed and sleep on my l shaped couch.. can you please do a studio apartment layout video..? Thank you 🙏😊
I too would like to have a video on this, please!!!
Yeah.. I understand you Mr. Dearmodern
Does having bars outside the window affect things in any way? The "kitchen" window of my studio has bars on the outside of it and I don't know if I should consider that in any way.
Yes it is considered a blockage.
Thank you very much! Ever since I moved into my current place I had a distant uncomfortable feeling radiating from south. After a few odd and needless confrontational exchanges from that particular neighbor, I discovered he works for law enforcement. Interesting how you can pick up on energy yet not grasp the entire meaning until later!
😂😂😂 gotta block off those south facing windows 😂
Are the Furnitures DIY? If they are can you do a video on how to make it? I'm going to major in int design and i'm very uneducated
I can focus easier on what You are saying on RUclips. The short version on Instagram is difficult to understand. I thank You for posting here. I send a smile from Canada.
Love your vids. And now you know.
Is there something like this but region scale? like city, highways, airports, water, mountains, people flows. Could you please recommend something to read on Feng Shui. Thank you ❤
I feel like the same principles are present everywhere, even in interfaces
Supposedly the original Hong Kong Disneyland was planned and built using Feng Shui. I know it isn't a city in the traditional sense, but it might be worth looking into!
Feng Shui for Dummies by David Kennedy, Feng Shui Step by Step: How to Arrange Your Home for Health and Happiness by T. Raphael Simons, The Practical Encyclopedia of Feng Shui by Gill Hale, Feng Shui For Apartment Living by Richard Webster, Lilian Too books.
Basically any beginners book is good and read reviews and synopses of books to search for specifics you want to read like maybe exterior F.S., interior F.S., arrangements of furniture, philosophy of F. S. and so on. There are specific books for scale and such but almost any Feng Shui book has explanations for scale, geography and such.
Please can you make a video on narrow halls creating negative chi with no entryway! :)
My bedroom has a closet and bathroom door on one wall. The entry door has wall space, this is where the dresser and makeup table are. The next wall has a large window. The last wall is the only wall that does not have a door or window and that is the wall where I have the head of the bed. The entry door is opposite but not directly in front of the bed. Is this ok?
Can you do something to counteract sharp / knife chi outside. I mean if you had no choice and that was where the window was?
Hi could you help me out with my living room?
Loves your tiktok page!
Haha! The knife!
Ngl, this energy chi thing sounds fun.
Like a type of good feeling, like how it looks so much better for our "self learned" interior design.
I mean, if the home arrangements look good to you, who is it to say otherwise? Well there are professionals in architecture and interior design, but that's just an opinion which is catered to "most people"
Can you do a hostle room
The drawings are practical. The bricks however are my language.
I currently have my bed in the command position in my room, but it is right next to the window because I like to look at the stars at night. How does that affect the chi?
Noises and lights affect Chi plus the cold or heat coming in from the window is uncomfortable. Need to layer window with heavy curtains over sheers or roll up curtains that block noise and lights.
Great video! You say a room with no sunlight is bad, but what do you do if you have no choice but to sleep in one?
I hate the sun in my bedroom.
Its evil. I hate light when you're trying to sleep. My room is blackout blinded and blackout curtained.
Rest of my house is plenty light and bright.
Don't need light to sleep.
I must show you my apartment!
I saw you on tiktok...can you help me with my bedroom.... I dunno why my bedroom so weird😂 it's 17X 9 ft rectangle and 3X5 ft square 😂
Can I please show you my room? It’s so big and idk how to place everything. It feels cluttered yet spacious at the same time
If you go to his channel page and look at his video list, you will see that he has posted lots of videos about big rooms.
This guy enjoys rearranging furniture
Never had someone explain gucci to me before
Rotate the bed 90 degrees to either side, and put the closet next to it
Is Gucci a good chi?
How can i hire you for my house in france?
Yes! Make a booking on my website www.dearmodern.com or email me at cliff@dearmodern.com :)
💛💛💛
Chi shure likes cramped places.... i love rooms with "too much chi", it's called having space....
Nice Lego walls. I don’t have TikTok so I certainly prefer RUclips.
I don’t think you could style my room bc it’s so weird placed everything
2:50 all I can think of is "the difference in cheese"
I always somehow wanted to see him playing with Legoß or at Animal Crossing.
Call it whatever you want.
Fact of the matter is, the results are real.
Imagine needing to crawl over a chair past a book shelf to get to your bed
The layout of the room is the same as mine but my room is a lot smaller 230 cm x 300 cm and I have a single bed next to the window, 2 wardrobes (1 x 90 cm and 1 x 65 cm) and PC desk 150 cm on the other wall next to the door, place a 90 cm wardrobe at the end of my bed. When I enter my room I have to move the chair to get to my bed.
Imagine seeing a chair as an immovable obstacle 😂
@@Lizzifer7 imaging moving a chair around every time you go to bed
Combined bedroom and living room? Yeah thats gonna be automatic bad chi for me caused Im in a tiny cramped apt. What am I in NYC or something?
"What you need is some Gucci"==> 😜
Good chi, good chi... ya ya, da da!
Sharp buildings like skyscrapers have bad energy?!
Yes
No
@@dawndefender Yes anything with sharp points especially pointing at you are bad according to Feng Shui. People in Asia that believe in Feng Shui place mirrors outside deflecting those sharp points from their homes.

@@vaderladyl lol i don't care what feng shui says, because it's a load of bull
where's the wardrobe and chest of drawers
Good chi sounds a bit like Gucci 😅
Qi is like children running?
Chi C H I
If you strip away the "esoteric" elements from this narrative, it's just interior design concepts. Not bad at all.
The idea of someone having to look at the ugly side of a bookcase is quite offputting. I understand you're talking about limited space so I would cut back on space-taking furniture. Maybe one less chair and a screen instead of a bookcase. Chi, or moving and breathing space as I vaguely unstand, should allow more ease of passage.
I do love this, but I wish we could teach people good interior design without having to rely on mysticism.
Its a big part of human existence... but if you want to take the cultural part out of it, you could just look at "space planning" which is all function.
The auto-caption doesn't recognise the word 'chi' and it's hilarious.
Gucci 😂
Mixing Mega Bloks with LEGO? Not very fung shui
Fake Lego ;( but god video!
Idk what about this guy but this stuff is so interaning
It’s frustrating how gullible people are. It doesn’t matter how absurd and ridiculous this concept is, people believe it, they find other people they like who believe it, and that’s enough to cement this as reality in their minds.
You're free to dismiss it as much as you want, but a lot of it is basically an abstract way to explain a lot of stuff in biological psychology. The command position for chair placement and such, is designed to give you the most heads up on anyone that would intrude upon you. It's maintaining the most optimal defense position. And we intuitively prefer being in it. Several decor placement decisions use many art theory techniques to induce certain responses based on visuals (like "look towards the right" and such). It's just using flavor text to explain it rather than heavy scientific terms.
@@amandaslough125 yeah, but people honestly believe that “chi energy” exists and flows through everything. Doesn’t it seem useful to accurately describe what is real and what isn’t? At least half of feng shui is symbolic and unscientific, like the example he gave with the knife pointed at someone’s home.
Loads of people believe in incredibly dumb stuff.
This (feng shui, which just to clarify I do not believe in) isn't a harmful belief, it does no damage to anyone.
You can't control what other people think.
You can only control yourself.
Let it go.
Be happier.
But again, that's up to you and doesn't affect me if you don't want to do that.
Who hurt you as a child?
Bruh you a fool
Superstition.
Such an energy doesn't exist. Why would you put some pseudoscience to interior design?
