In feng shui, plants always represent health, healing, refreshing energy, and growth.
They represent the earth element and the wood element, bringing balance and cleansing energy to every space.
They are also one of the easiest ways to add life to your space!
Whether you already love plants or are just considering which ones to start with to add more healthy energy to your home, let’s go through all of the best feng shui plants for good health!
Before we discuss all of the plants that specifically carry health energy, let’s talk about the plants that carry “dangerous” energy according to feng shui.
(I say “dangerous” in quotes, because everything is energetic, and if you’re careful about placement, you can have any plant in your home.)
Dangerous feng shui plants include any plants that are pointy or sharp.
Mostly, that means cactus.
I LOVE cactus, and I definitely keep them in my home.
But if you’re really concentrating on creating good health, just don’t keep your cactus in the very center of your home.
They actually do best in the fame/reputation area of your home because that’s associated with fire energy and pointy objects.????
So if you love cacti like I do, either keep them there or at least put them in an area of your room where they aren’t “pointing at you” while you’re sitting in the room.
And don’t keep them in your bedroom because you don’t want the spiky, fire energy keeping you awake at night.
I keep mine in corners and up higher on shelves and furniture so that my family won’t accidentally brush up against them.
If you have a really large one, keep it in a corner of a room where it can be a focal point but not out in the middle where someone could trip and fall into it.
Now that that’s out of the way, let’s talk about which feng shui plants are best for attracting good health!
In general: Plants with rounded leaves. Think succulents, geraniums, and pileas.
Plants with lush foliage: like ferns, calatheas, and zz plants.
Flowering plants: like anthuriums, peace lilies, and African violets
As you can see, lots of plants can bring health and happiness into your home.
But if you’re looking for specific feng shui plants for good health, these 8 are my favorite:
8 feng shui plants for good health
Pothos:
Pothos have heart shaped leaves, lush foliage, and come in a wide variety of green colors so you’re bound to find one that you love!
They are easy to care for, and can thrive in the center of your home (the health area) where there might not be as much light as other areas.
Golden pothos are considered lucky in feng shui, so if you don’t have a preference, a golden pothos can bring good luck to your health!
Orchids:
Orchids are the symbol of fertility in feng shui, but they also represent peace, serenity, and beauty.
Placing an orchid in your health area can boost vitality and a sense of calm, harmonious energy.
Choose one with yellow blooms if you really want an extra boost of health in your home.
Calathea:
Calatheas also come in a wide range of different colors.
They have an abundance of leaves, grow in an upward growth pattern (raising the vibrations of your home) and can really change the energy of a room.
Choose one whose colors you love!
Kalanchoe:
Kalanchoes are flowering succulents that are really easy to take care of!
They thrive in a variety of lighting situations, and come in a range of colors.
Being in the succulent family they represent abundance and nurturing, supportive energy.
Rubber plant:
Rubber plants have soft, thick leaves that also represent abundance and good health!
They also grow in an upward pattern, uplifting the energy in a room.
They can also grow tall and large, which expresses wood energy and creates balance and height in a room.
Rubber plants are also easy to grow so they are great for beginners!
Peace Lily:
I love peace lilies because they droop when they need water, so they’re easy plants for someone like me who tends to overwater. ????
They flower and can grow really large, with lush, uplifting foliage.
They’re also really easy to find, so if you can’t find other plants in your area, chances are really good you can find a peace lily at the the grocery store!
Anthurium:
Anthuriums have heart shaped leaves and rounded flowers, which are perfect symbols for good health.
They come in a variety of colors too, and are really good if you want something to liven up a space.
They are low maintenance and have bright foliage that can bring more light and excitement to your home.
