How To Get Rid Of Negative Energy (Part 2) – Positive Reflection Of The Week
Harnessing The Elements: Fire & Air Techniques For Energy Clearing
FIRE-BASED TECHNIQUES
Fire is sometimes an effective clearing ally. As with water, you can use fire in your energy-cleansing practises by using candles, burning objects yourself, and using visualization. It can be dangerous because it is so strong, so always, always use common sense and caution.
You’ve probably seen people write things on paper and then burn them. This is a common method of expelling negative energy. It is believed that by burning the paper, the negative energy and emotions associated with the written words are released into the flames, allowing for a sense of catharsis and renewal. This practise, known as “burning rituals,” has been used for centuries in various cultures and spiritual traditions to let go and invite positive energy into one’s life. Whether it’s a painful memory, a toxic relationship, or self-doubt, the act of burning the paper represents a powerful act of transformation and liberation.
Another way to use fire for clearing is Candle-Work. This involves putting all the energy that you want released into the candle. Once the candle is lit, visualize the energy being transformed and released into the universe as the flame burns. This method can be particularly effective for releasing emotional or spiritual blockages and inviting positive energy into your space.
AIR-BASED TECHNIQUES
Smudging, breath work, and organization are some of my favourite clearing techniques. I find smudging particularly effective, as it involves burning sacred herbs like sage or palo santo to purify the energy in a space. Additionally, practising breath work helps me release any stagnant energy and restore balance within myself. Lastly, maintaining an organized environment not only promotes a sense of clarity but also helps in keeping the energy flowing smoothly.
Burning sage not only cleanses the aura but also helps to purify the energy in the surrounding environment. This ancient practise has been used for centuries to promote a sense of calm and to remove any lingering negative energies. The space is filled with a soothing and refreshing aroma by lighting a bundle of sage and allowing the smoke to waft through the air. It is believed that as the smoke rises, it will carry away any stagnant or heavy energy, leaving behind a renewed vitality. Many cultures and spiritual traditions use sage burning to create a harmonious and positive atmosphere that invites in a sense of peace and serenity.
Incense sticks and cones can also be used to cleanse negativity. The ability of incense sticks and cones to create a calming and soothing atmosphere is well known. The fragrant smoke they emit can help cleanse negative energy, while also promoting a sense of peace and relaxation in any environment. Furthermore, many people believe that certain scents, such as lavender for stress relief or sandalwood for grounding, have specific properties, making incense sticks and cones a versatile tool for spiritual practises or simply creating a pleasant ambiance.
