It matters.<\/p>\n<p>You may not be conscious of it but the orientation and disposition of your desk in a room affects you. I changed mine a year ago and I noticed a big difference! I feel more centred and inspired.<\/p>\n<p>So, in this post, I will explain you what&#8217;s the best direction to work in the north and south hemisphere so you can orientate your desk accordingly to be more productive.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-26374\" src=\"https:\/\/alluring-brown-iguana.178-211-133-14.cpanel.site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/best-direction-to-work-in-both-hemispheres.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"1198\" srcset=\"https:\/\/alluring-brown-iguana.178-211-133-14.cpanel.site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/best-direction-to-work-in-both-hemispheres.jpg 800w, https:\/\/alluring-brown-iguana.178-211-133-14.cpanel.site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/best-direction-to-work-in-both-hemispheres-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/alluring-brown-iguana.178-211-133-14.cpanel.site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/best-direction-to-work-in-both-hemispheres-684x1024.jpg 684w, https:\/\/alluring-brown-iguana.178-211-133-14.cpanel.site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/best-direction-to-work-in-both-hemispheres-768x1150.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In yoga, it\u2019s recommended to meditate facing East or North for a better practice and, Vastu Shastra also recommends the same orientation to work more effectively. It helps to be more inspired and focused so your productivity improves.<\/p>\n<p>However, due to the magnetic polarity of the Earth, the best direction to work changes depending on the hemisphere where you are located.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The best orientation to work in both hemispheres is to sit facing East<\/strong>. You get the benefits of energy movement of the Earth as it turns towards East around its axis. Facing East also aligns the frontal energy axis of your body so this orientation will help you to be more centred in your higher Self.<\/p>\n<p>Facing North is also good if you\u2019re in the Northern Hemisphere and, South if you\u2019re in the Southern Hemisphere.<\/p>\n<p>If you are a visual person like me, you will enjoy the diagram bellow:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-26375\" src=\"https:\/\/alluring-brown-iguana.178-211-133-14.cpanel.site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/best-orientation-to-work-in-both-hemispheres.jpg\" alt=\"best direction to work\" width=\"800\" height=\"1198\" srcset=\"https:\/\/alluring-brown-iguana.178-211-133-14.cpanel.site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/best-orientation-to-work-in-both-hemispheres.jpg 800w, https:\/\/alluring-brown-iguana.178-211-133-14.cpanel.site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/best-orientation-to-work-in-both-hemispheres-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/alluring-brown-iguana.178-211-133-14.cpanel.site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/best-orientation-to-work-in-both-hemispheres-684x1024.jpg 684w, https:\/\/alluring-brown-iguana.178-211-133-14.cpanel.site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/best-orientation-to-work-in-both-hemispheres-768x1150.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>By the way, I noticed that people have the tendency to place their desk towards the wall. Is that your case? That reminds me when teachers at school used to punish children when they were naughty, facing the wall. Giving their back to the rest of the class\u2026<\/p>\n<p>I understand that is done for practical reasons to optimize the space but, in terms of energy, it\u2019s not a good practice to do.<\/p>\n<p>Why?<\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"color: #000000;\">*A tip you should consider:<\/span><\/h4>\n<p>You should cover your back. That\u2019s an instinct practice humans need to have to be more at ease and, it\u2019s also applicable to the space where you work too!<\/p>\n<p>The ideal is to be able to see the door entrance where you are and have a wall, shelf or cupboard behind you. That will make you feel more protected. Nobody will watch from behind what you have in your screen and you will feel safe in the middle of a conference call.<\/p>\n<p>For example, do you remember what happened to that journalist when he was in the middle of an interview with the BBC? (If you don\u2019t, have a look <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Mh4f9AYRCZY\">here<\/a> (It\u2019s veeeery funny to watch but I wouldn\u2019t like to be in his shoes\u2026would you?)<\/p>\n<p>Every space has different peculiarities and it\u2019s not always easy to follow the recommendations I may give you but do your best. Use your common sense to arrange the space in a way that works for you: it should be practical, comfortable and make you feel good!<\/p>\n<p>I hope that this post was helpful and\u2026have you ever noticed how the orientation affects you? I will be happy to hear from you in the comments bellow!<\/p>\n<p>Sending you lots of love,<\/p>\n<p>Julia<\/p>\n<p>*By the way, <a href=\"https:\/\/mailchi.mp\/3ed4a990ad9f\/blog_subscription\">subscribe here<\/a> to don&#8217;t miss my next posts.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Image: <a href=\"https:\/\/thefancythings.com\/2016\/08\/chic-office-essentials\/\">Thefancythings<\/a> via Pinterest<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Have you ever wondered how much the direction of your desk is affecting your productivity and well-being at work?
