The direction your bed faces could be making you sick!

Could all the feng shui fans actually be onto something? That’s where the configuration of your furniture and home supposedly affect you in strange, mystical ways.

A new “study” found that the way your bed is facing could be affecting your health. It claims that if your head is facing east or south, you’re more likely to have a healthy resting heart rate, low cholesterol, and low blood pressure.

It also found that if your front door faces south, you’re more likely to have mental health issues and money problems. And if your desk faces east, you’ll work faster and have an easier time concentrating.

The study was done at a college founded by the Maharishi though, and run by people who are very into this stuff. So it’s interesting, but maybe take it with a grain of salt.
