For Professionals, it is the East direction which is the best side to place your head. Generally, try to place your bed in a way that the head side of the bed is placed very close to a wall, it will give stability to your life. So, the main point is that the South and east are the best sides to keep the tour head while sleeping. According to Indian Vastu Shastra, North and West Sides are not at all good for placing your head while sleeping. Try to make a separate room for prayer and Gods and not keep God’s Images or anything in the sleeping bedrooms.

It is very important to keep the main entrance of the home in the right place. The main entrance door should be ideally two doors. It should be high, wide. The thickness of the main door should be greater than all other doors of the home.
