Shame the angry and rude person who criticised your article, hadn’t read it in FULL, as they would have then realised how silly, childish, and embarrassing they portray themselves with their completely inaccurate accusation. As soon as I’d read their first line of vitriol, I couldn’t stop laughing, as I’m sure everyone else could clearly see that the complainant was showing themselves to be a greater fool with every word they wrote! 🤣 And they didn’t have the courage to apologise for their cringeworthy rhetoric, either!

Hi Karl,
I don’t know much about ZZ plant, but I would definitely suggest that you try it out. At the same time, please take note on whether your windows are open or closed.

Great article and very informative! Would you be so kind to advise on ZZ plants ? Would you recommend having a small one in a bedroom? I just bought one and was contemplating on putting it in my bedroom. Do you think this plant will affect my quality of sleep? Kindly please advise. Thank you so much!

Kind regards,
Karl

Hi Mae,
Thanks for the comment! I hope you read the section “Plants that Release Oxygen at Night” and watched the embedded 4-minute TED talk about bedroom plants that helped the speaker with respiratory problems, as well as all the science reports that I linked out in this article.
You definitely pointed out a big flaw about the “energy” part when you mentioned all the home electronics.
Upon more understanding about Feng Shui, many practitioners today misuse the word “energy”, as I laid out in the article about crystals and Feng Shui: https://fengshuinexus.com/feng-shui-science/can-crystalshelp-with-feng-shui/. But aside from that, the reasoning behind why Feng Shui says plants should be avoided should be traced back to its historical context. People from probably 100 years ago and more all did not know about oxygen and CO2, and which plants produce which. This could be just another of the “cultural Feng Shui” practice that’s passed down, but modern practitioners still apply them without understanding why they’re not applicable in today’s living environment (city) and standards. One example is why restrooms are not bad Feng Shui by default (anymore), but many practitioners still say they are: https://fengshuinexus.com/blog/truth-about-bathrooms-bad-feng-shui/
Again, thanks for sharing your experience and the context!

Yeah, you read that right. THERE ARE PLANTS THAT RELEASES O2 AT NIGHT, AND ACTUALLY IMPROVES YOUR QUALITY OF SLEEP.

I sleep with Peace Lilies, Orchids and Chinese Evergreens in my bedroom. My bedroom has never been more fresher and my sleep quality improves A LOT. Before i put these God given plants, I could not sleep well. Afterwards, my room is so fresh i sleep like a baby and wake up smiling.

Forget these kinds of stupid articles. Plants and fengshui. Plants releasing energy at night bla bla bla. What idiot. Why not remove all TVs, cellphones, laptops, even the lights from ur bedroom too? Aren’t they producing energy? You can sleep with ur cellphone on or off and charging beside ur bed but u can’t sleep with A PLANT because it produces energy? LOL.

Do your research properly.

Plants actually HELPS YOU SLEEP BETTER!

GET PLANTS THAT RELEASES OXYGEN AT NIGHT, AND ONE OR TWO PLANTS THAT RELEASES OXYGEN AT DAYTIME. CLOSE YOUR BEDROOM DOOR AND FEEL THE DIFFERENCE BY YOURSELF.

Why mixing the plants (one that releases O2 at night and O2 in daytime)? That way your room is fresh all day long.

I live in a tropical country called Indonesia. We have 25-33 degrees celcius everyday. In other words, it’s HOT. But after i put several plants in my room, the air in my room becomes fresh and cool, I can actually turn off the aircon at night. I breathe better. Sleep better. Feels calmer. (Yes plants can give you calming effects, that’s why in hospitals when people are sick, they receive flowers (plants), not fengshui books.) There is a proven scientific research based on plants and human’s psychology. Do your research!

We “city people” often forgot how plants can affect our psychology. We live surrounded by metals, brick walls, plastic chairs, stones, and papers. We forgot that we are humans not robots. We need plants near us to feel good. We need pets near us to feel good.

Don’t believe me? TRY.

Buy yourself a peace lily. Even NASA confirmed its ability in cleaning the air from dangerous chemicals. Put in your bedroom. Depending on the size of your bedroom, you may need more than one plant.

Then close the door. Go to work. Come home. Sleep.

Thank me later.

Hi Amanda,
Returning bamboo gift is not unlucky. But yes, it can be rude for some people…

Hi Vaishali,
Keeping a few bamboo plant in your bedroom should be ok. However, I would rather place it in my work area rather than your bedroom. Why not take it to work? The bamboo is likely filled with water, so it is important that you replace with clean water regularly. If you don’t like it, feel free to gift it to someone else.
