Location According to Vastu Shastra, peace and harmony reigns only in a properly located bedroom. Ideally, the Master Bedroom should be located in the south-west part of the house with all other bedrooms either in the North or East of it. Master Bedroom should preferably be occupied by the head of the family and a west sided bedroom is considered best for the kids.
When it comes to the placement of the bed, it is good if you place it in the North. Take care that it does not face the entry door, is clutter free beneath and is not placed under beams. All these things create negative energy and cause mental stress.

Décor Subtle décor is advisable for this part of your house and you should strictly avoid items that promote a sense of clutter. If you want to adorn the walls with paintings then make sure that they don't display any sign of war, cruelty or sadness. In addition don't put the pictures of single birds or wild animals; instead use pictures that add and exudes a sense of happiness such as those of flowers, flowing water, pair of birds etc. When it comes to the choice of bedding and cushions, you can mix and match but try to use smooth and light colored fabrics.
