The position of the bed should always be in front of a wall in order to represent power and stability. If there is a compelling situation, it is recommended to leave a space between the bed and the window by placing a chair or an object between them.
According to Feng Shui, it is emphasized that the mirrors used in the bedrooms are not compatible with the resting environment. For this reason, if you are going to use a mirror in your room, it is recommended to use a single mirror that is not on the bedside, which may be on your wardrobe door.
