Negative energy cleansing

Ever walked into a place and felt depressed, angry or uplifted? Your response to the energies of the space are an indication of the vibrations of the area. After an argument, the energies of a room become clouded and dense. Illness can also alter the energies at home and may leave others weary with their residue. 

Regular space clearing of your home or office space helps purify and restore the balance of energies. This ancient practice followed all over the world can be done by anyone almost anytime you feel a subtle shift in the vibrations of your living space. Space clearing helps immensely before moving into a new home, after illness, loss or grieving or when you feel stuck with a situation or a problem.

Here are a few tips and techniques to help you in space clearing.

• Getting ready for space clearing should begin with decluttering. Remove the old, the unnecessary and unwanted.
• Cleanse yourself with a salt bath and meditation before you begin.
• Sound works as an effective cleanser of energies. By chanting mantras aloud or playing a CD of healing mantras, you can work to restore the harmony of the space. Ringing a bell or using singing bowls in corners help raise the vibration and dispel any negative chi that may have accumulated with time.
• Light and air work as uplifters. You may like to open your doors and windows to allow natural light to filter in, or light a diya or candle in the corners.
• Placing healing crystals in the corners of the room after the crystals have been thoroughly cleansed and energised help absorb any remnants of stale, negative energy. Clusters of clear quartz, smokey quartz and rose quartz are effective and economical.
• Essential oils and incense soothe, cleanse and purify, and can lend a nice finishing touch to your space cleansing ritual.

After space clearing, many feel greater clarity, energy and vitality. They can move forward in life with more peace especially since their home feels more balanced and energised.
