Your house holds the energy of your daily experiences, moods, family gatherings and interactions. Over time, stagnant or heavy energy can accumulate, leaving your space feeling weighed down and energetically cluttered. Just as you clean your home physically, an energetic cleanse can help refresh and revitalize your environment.
Start by standing at the entrance of your home and close your eyes, taking a few deep breaths. Set the intention to clear out any lingering negativity and to welcome in peace, light and positivity. Begin the cleanse by burning sage or palo santo. Allow the smoke to flow through each room, making sure to hit each corner and focus on releasing old energy. Sound can shift the energy in a space as well. Walk through your home ringing a bell or playing calming music, allowing the vibrations to break up any stagnant energy.
An energetic cleanse doesn’t take long, but the effects can be profound. By setting aside time for this practice, you’re helping create a sanctuary that energetically feels harmonious and clear.
