Feng Shui is the art of creating a happy living environment within the home, one that ushers in good energy and feel which is not only beneficial but positive for the occupants.

It is probably more correctly called the Chinese art of alignment due to the fact that if a space is aligned properly, the residents in that space function better. Metaphorically speaking, Feng Shui is to a house what acupuncture is to a body. When correctly applied, Feng Shui is a tool that can correct problem areas, such as ill-health, strained relationships, or difficulties with children.

Mirrors add to the depth and space of the dining area but ensure that the dining table is not too large and creates a feel of small space or cramped area as this would make the area less pleasurable.

Adapting even say a mirror above a fireplace creates a powerful focal point in the room with the reflection of the mirror providing a cooling antidote to the heat of the fire. All that you need to ensure is that the mirror reflects a beautiful view like a nice crystal chandelier or something peasant to enhance the energy and  feel of the place. 

Placing attractive candles in the foyer and even a plant in summer time in front of a mirror can be a good activator of Feng Shui as they are very powerful at expanding energy and making space look larger.

Similarly Mirrors reflecting the bed in a the bedroom are a taboo as they are said to create stress and disturbed sleep which cause illness in the long run. Lastly avoid mirrors reflecting the stove as they double the fire energy in the kitchen with the reflection.
