∆Cleansing Yourself Masterpost∆
There are many, almost endless ways to cleanse yourself spiritually. For some, there will be ways that are the most comfortable for them personally, and this is perfectly fine!! Others may even adapt to creating their own and/or mixing more than one technique together. These listed here are some that I’ve personally created, came across or been told about by either friends or guides. I hope they can help or inspire!! \(^.^)/
Sage/Smoke: Typically one of the most common ways to cleanse yourself is to burn some sage or insence and allow the smoke to wash over you, cleaning out and restoring your personal energies.
Salt and Water wash: This wash is fairly well known to my knowledge, simply mixing salt, (sometimes sea salt, depending on your preference) and as pure of water as you can get your hands on. If pure water is not readily available, you can use rainwater, or bless and charge normal water, either with energy, Reiki, the moon, the sun or a blessing spell. (NOTE- you can charge or bless the water anyway, but it may bring peace of mind to those who don’t have access to pure water.)
Milk, Honey and Lavender Bath: Another fairly known one as far as I know, but the ingredients are decently obtainable and isn’t only great for cleansing, but relaxing and replenishing. The portions can be any which parts you prefer, but I personally would tend to use- ½ cup Milk, 1 Tablespoon honey and ½ cup Lavender buds/ or 2 drops Lavender essential oil.
Rose Water: A pretty popular cleansing technique. Buying or making your own rose water to bathe in is very calming, cleansing and serene. Just a cup or two of this water should work, depending on your personal preference.
Blessed Bath or Shower: You can bless or charge the water before getting in, or as it’s flowing over yourself. This can be achieved through energy work, affirmations or spellwork. It’s a nice touch and in this case very helpful if you charge some candles and let them burn as you bathe, the candles constantly charging and sending cleansing energy to the water as they burn.
Exploding Energy Roses: This is a wonderful way of cleansing oneself of negativity and energy clutter. Simply get into a comfortable position and allow yourself to slip into a meditative state, once there, imagine and visualize each of your stresses, worries and energetic clutter that has clung to you, see them form into roses, becoming something manageable and force them to surrender their power over you, give them colors, detail, and texture. When you’re satisfied with your roses, focus on each one and explode it, let go of the negativity that it had once been and release every thought and emotion tied to it.
Energy Comb: Get into a comfortable position and slowly allow yourself to achieve a meditative state, imagine the energy in any way most comfortable for you. An actual comb shape, energy hands, tendrils, energetic water washing over you or a sheet of energy, whatever you visualize, see it scan and filter through your metaphysical body, getting rid of negativity and energy clutter from your day and life.
Reiki Cleansing: For this cleansing, some knowledge of the use of Reiki is required. If you are familiar with the workings of Reiki, simply activate your hands using the power symbol and hover your palms over your body, starting from your head and moving down to your feet in a brushing or soothing motion. Trust in yourself and open up to the universal energy as a conductor of it, allow it to work it’s way into your energetic body, sorting through the negative energy clutter and filling in any holes that may have been created or left behind by the negativity.
Angel Vacuum: Getting into a comfortable position, either sitting up or lying down, slowly slip into a meditative state as you focus on your breathing. Once your body and mind have relaxed, call upon Archangel Micheal and Archangel Jophiel. Ask them to assist you in cleaning out the energetic clutter in your life and metaphysical body. Visualize Micheal either placing his hands on the top of your head (at your crown chakra) or imagine him linking a vacuum tube to it. Either way you visualize it, relax yourself and allow Micheal to clean your energy as Jophiel comes behind each cleansed space and refills the holes left behind by the negativity with light and love. Once they have finished, thank them for their help and continue to relax and embrace your cleansed energy until you are ready to come back to the present moment. (NOTE: you can ask if they would leave the vacuum, so for example if you do this in the morning, you could ask if they’d leave it throughout your day. This can significantly decreases the onslaught of energy clutter that you’d normally gather over the course of your day)
