Practices to cleanse your energy

With big energy moving, swirling, and dancing, don't forget to cleanse. The energy you hold, exchange, and carry, can get blocked and stuck and we need to cleanse so that new energy - fizzy and bright - can flow.

Three quick ways to cleanse -

Shake it out 

Stick Florence and the Machine on (or similar) and move. Shake the hands, the arms, the legs, everything you can - hey, a twerk wouldn't be totally inappropriate here - to let anything stagnant go and cleanse your energy. The key is moving, it doesn't matter how it looks and it is ALL about how it feels to move, release, and create space for new.

The Water cure

Get into water, possibly not the river - ideally a shower, but even drinking water or washing your hands can give the same effect. Water is a powerful tool for energy clearing, and we don’t use it nearly enough. Imagine the water giving new energy and new life to yourself, your ideas, your environment. Magic.

Wipe it away 

Bring your palms together and either clap three times, or practice the act of 'dusting off' your hands - like the done and dusted move you'd see a cowboy do, yeah, that one. 

Cleanse the space

With sage or incense, use the smoke as a smudging practice to carry away any stagnant, negative, or unwanted energy. Just set the intention in your mind and let the smoke capture it and send it away. Choose an incense that has qualities or values you’d like to evoke or conjure, to make it that bit more magic.

Happy Cleansing.
