The five elements are a Taoist system that uses the cycles of nature to inform and balance our health and well-being. The five elements are earth, metal, water, wood, and fire. 

An easy way to bring good feng shui into your living room is to include something from each of the five elements in your space.

• Fire is fiery, red colors, and triangular shapes.
