Further
size of
study table should not be too big or too small. It should be just
size that is comfortable for
working of
student. A big sized table diminishes
working capacity, whereas
small table gives rise to depression.
Bookshelves
It is a good idea to place
bookshelves on
sides rather than above
study table. Books placed above
study table tend to exert pressure and create unnecessary stress.
.The study books should be placed in
cupboard in
cabinet rather than in
open. And if
shutter of
cupboard is kept shut
flow of energy is constantly maintained.
The books in
study chamber should be kept in
east, north, Southwest, South or West direction and not in
North - East. In addition to that if
north - east direction bears heavy weight it shall pressurize
students' mind.
Lighting
The study room should be bright and lit up well. Dingy, dimly lit rooms are depressing and in conducive to a child’s education, growth and attitude.
An adequate amount of sunlight is a boon for a balanced all-round development. However if you do not get natural light due to any reason, adequate suitable artificial lighting is a must however is should be remembered that no artificial light can ever give
benefits of
natural lighting.
While studying,
shadow of
student should not fall on
books being studied.
A study lamp is another way of energizing
room in focusing on
task in hand. The light of
lamp should be bright preferably white and care should be taken that it does not fall directly on
eyes and should not be too harsh on
eyes. Table lamp should be kept in
Southeast corner of
table. Energizing Study Rooms for better concentration
·Gayatri chants early morning is a powerful tool to energies living spaces. You do not have to recite
mantra always, even a cassette has a great effect, just experiment with it.
·A television playing in a room interrupts concentration whereas music does not. A TV serial being played in next room at loud volume can cause discomfort and may result in lack of concentration.
·Playing inspirational and soothing music in
children’s room is very effective. Study and music go together well. Point to remember is that it should not cause distraction and should be predominantly be instrumental.
·Are you aware of Earth’s magnetic field and how it affects
magnetic materials. Do you know your blood contains lot of iron? Ensure that you sleep with head towards
East or South. A person becomes learned by placing his head towards
East and is troubled by distressing thoughts by lying down with his head placed in
Westward direction. By placing head in South direction you ensure good health and sound sleep.
·A pendulum watch is a must in each and every study room as it instills a sense of movement and life. Inspirational Pictures
Place an inspirational picture in
child’s room. The picture could be that of a galloping horse, a rising Sun all these are symbols of strength and inspire even
weakest.
The study room should have images of Lord Ganesha and Goddess Saraswati.
Hang framed certificates or display trophies etc won by you on
South wall. Reminding
winnings and successes of
past invariably revive
faith in your self and
fighting sprit in you.
Do not put pictures depicting any battle scenes, fights, dragons, skeletons etc as these have a negative effect and cause negative energy to flow in
room.
Remember what you become depends a lot on what you eat, what you see and what you hear. So be careful in choosing these things.
One should not have pictures depicting war scenes (even if they belong to
Epic Mahabharata or Ramayan battles). Similarly scenes depicting negativities of life like sorrow, struggle, violence (including that of wild beasts), and tragedy and have calamities.
Te color Scheme
If possible,
walls of
study room should be light orange in color as it is very auspicious and enhances
wishing power as well as supports
speedy progress of mind.
Do not use a dark color in
study room. You can use yellow, white or pink also. Your room should be vibrant and cheerful, avoid too much of black in this room.
