Cleansing Away the Negativity

Is your house "Clean"??

Did you know that it is pretty important to cleanse our personal living spaces? Oh, I'm not talking about the cleaning that you think I'm talking about! Yes, it's also important to maintain a CLEAN living space! But, what I am speaking of here is more the energetic cleansing that should be done. 

Have you ever noticed that sometimes the air just seems "heavier" than usual? Maybe there's been a lot of negativity in the house? The family is more argumentative? Or even when you've had family or friends over to visit and notice that after they leave, the energy seems "off" or "different"?

Hey, I didn't invite your CRUD in!!

As much as we try to live more spiritually minded lives, it is inevitable that some negativity and "crud" will seep through. When we invite people into our space, we are unwittingly inviting in their energy as well. And many people bring with them some negative baggage, in the form of anger, depression, higher energy levels akin to anxiety or restlessness and more. And when the physical person leaves, they end up leaving behind the essence of their energy. 

This is why it is so important to do a regular "cleansing" of our space! To literally change the ions in the air. Releasing and removing the ones that are less than desirable and making way for the more positive energies to move in. 

There are so many ways to do this and they are generally pretty easy, for the most part! Smudging the house with Sage is probably the most common method, but there can be drawbacks to using Sage. Some people can be sensitive to the smell or even the smoke, particularly those with asthma and other respiratory symptoms. Thankfully, there are options! Sage is not the only way to go!

What are the benefits to me???

The benefits of cleansing the negative energies from your living space are incredible! You should notice a "lightening" of the air almost immediately after you implement any one of these methods. You will experience more peace and tranquility in your home, outwardly expressed by seeing less arguing, agitation and anxiety among your family members and yourself! You will likely even notice that things just run smoother! The morning rush isn't quite so rushed. If you have pets, they will most likely appreciate the effects and feel them even before the humans do! (Animals are very perceptive to energetic changes). 

So.... here's the challenge!! Implement at least ONE of these cleansing techniques! And then share your experience!
