Don't worry, there are easy and fashionable ways to get your Qi back on track. First, fix any leaks or drips in your bathroom and consider keeping the toilet lid down. If you have the space, you can also invest in a chic partition or curtain to place between the toilet and the rest of the bathroom to prohibit energy from being sucked down the drain, like this bathroom featured on Tapja. Next, give your bathroom a good cleaning as grim and clutter can block Qi. Plus, who wants to use a messy bathroom???
Earth and wood elements like house plants, natural stones, and fresh cut flowers will liven up your bathroom decor and add balance to your Qi. Wood accents especially will help draw your energy up towards the sky instead of down through the pipes! Floating wooden shelves like the ones above from EncircleDesign Build help balance your energy and psychologically create a larger bathroom space by drawing your eye up towards the ceiling. Wooden mirror frames are another great (and easy!) way to incorporate wood into your bathroom, like these from Southern Living via A Refocused Life above and Home and Garden below.
Adding extra mirrors to your bathroom is very trendy right now but also helps circulate energy. Just make sure they do not reflect the toilet! Feng shui-ers believe that reflected energy will just end up right down the drain. The bathrooms below from Kasey Buick and House look beautiful and balanced.
