Tabletop Fountains – Why Do You Need Them?

by Amy C. on August 29, 2009

I’ve had a nice bamboo tabletop fountain on my desk for over 3 years now.  Every morning, as soon as I turn on my pc, I plug in the fountain.  It has become a routine for me.  I guess I cannot work in front of a computer without a nice water fountain on my desk.

Principles of feng shui state that flowing water attracts chi, the life-force, the one energy of consciousness.  A well-designed tabletop fountain attracts positive energy to homes and offices.

Tabletop fountains act as natural humidifiers.  Indoor heating and cooling systems tend to make your indoors a dry environment by sucking the moisture from the air.  A well placed tabletop fountain adds natural water vapor to the air that surrounds you, creating a well balanced, clean, and naturally soothing environment for indoors.

A tabletop fountain acts as a well designed noise filter.  Trickling sounds of a tabletop fountain water helps in filtering out the humming noise of your computer or other electronic appliances.  Some pumps have inbuilt feature that allows you to control the water flow in your tabletop fountain.  This allows you to adjust the flow of water, and thereby, the volume of trickling sounds of water to meet your specific sound needs.

A mist tabletop fountain can help you create a visually stimulating environment with its LED lights and enchanting fog.

You may also add few drops of essential oils to the water of misting fountain to create an aromatherapy effect.  I usually add few drops of eucalyptus oil to a misting fountain to entice my sense of smell and rejuvenate my mind.  As per aromatherapy, 3 to 5 drops of Eucalyptus oil tends to refresh body, invigorate mind, and purify spirit.  In addition 5 drops of eucalyptus oil, add 5 drops of peppermint oil, and 8 drops of grapefruit oil in a mist fountain to create an invigorating mist – My personal favorite.

That’s about it.  Although a tabletop fountain may not totally transform your life, but it certainly brings a little something to refresh your mind, body, and spirit.

When I am stressed, tired, or bored, I just look at the flowing water.  My stress simply melts away as I experience the soft splashing sound and the random water streams that are created every time flowing water splashes on shiny river stones.  It relieves my eyes, and more importantly, my mind, and my soul.

Btw, don’ forget to leave your comments…

Cheers!
