As the festive season approaches, many people look forward to decorating their homes and offices. Yet the symbols of Christmas need not carry religious connotations: universal values such as generosity, belonging, renewal, joy and stewardship resonate across cultures. Feng shui – the Chinese art of aligning spaces with natural energy flows – offers a framework for expressing these values without superstition. Modern research shows that well‑designed environments influence mood, cognition and health. Exposure to natural elements can reduce stress and improve physical health, while cluttered spaces increase cortisol levels and hamper concentration. Designers are also integrating neuroscience, biophilic design and circadian lighting to create brain‑friendly buildings. This article draws on these findings and the latest design trends to present a practical guide for Christmas 2025. It translates evidence‑based principles into actionable tips for homes and workplaces of different sizes, emphasising low‑cost adjustments, sustainability, inclusive hosting and a mindful post‑holiday reset.
