Most of us have the ingrained habit of holding onto things way past their shelf date.
We hold on to so many things that cause us a great deal of pain, stress and suffering. Instead of allowing ourselves to be stress free and happy we cling to the old and familiar ways of doing and being.
I'll never forget this statement I heard at a 12-Step meeting, it so reflected my own insistence on hanging onto everything, even if it didn't serve me:
“Anything I ever let go of has claw marks on it!”
Not anymore. Today is the day to give up on all those things that no longer serve you, and embrace change. Ready?
Energy Clearing Exercise
Here's a quick and easy way to clear up the negative energy that crops up when you're going through a BIG Shift. This exercise will clear out old energy and make way for the new:
1. Close your eyes and bring your attention to your breath. Bring the focus of your awareness to the source of your breath and notice how easily you can direct it or witness it.
2. Imagine a huge white screen in your inner field of vision. Feel your body relax, release and open to the flow of infinite energy moving through you on every inhale and exhale. Feel yourself as the vital flow of life.
3. Practice the Infinite Breath. This is really easy. Allow your breath to deepen and lengthen. Imagine that your in breath begins to draw the first half of an infinity sign. Pause at the juncture where the lines cross and feel yourself as the physical embodiment of the intersection of matter and infinite energy. Exhale as you complete the infinity sign. Do 4 cycles of breathing, or continue breathing until you feel the outside world dim and your inner world come front and center.
4. Direct the flow of the energy. Chances are you're good to go. If there's still some lingering energies that you'd like to shift focus your attention and direct the flow energy to where you're feeling the density. Allow each energy charged breath to clear and free it. Feel the lightness. Notice how peaceful and pleasant it feels.
This exercise works on several levels. It induces a state of relaxation. In this restorative space your energetic template gets realigned to its original brilliance. The image of the white screen creates a state of witnessing, while the deep breathing clears your emotions.
Use this whenever you feel negative energy. Focusing on the energy that detracts from your being will only attract more negative energy. To avoid being affected by it, clear it with the above exercise. Invoking expansive states of being instantly shifts your energy and what's possible.
How do YOU quickly clear low vibe energy? Post below.
clapping is one way to clear a space and lift the vibration;
I also like to regularly put up 4 columns or pillars of white light, invoking the Archangels and flood the space. A slower and heftier method is deeeeeeeep cleaning and clutter clearing.
SWEEPING has become a physical favourite for shifting energy. It cleans a space and uplifts and encourages the spirit. It’s particularly lovely if you can get into a rhythm and have a lovely broom – I prefer witchy twig brooms ( smile)
