how to get rid of bad energy on your body
It’s crucial to recognize the importance of regularly cleansing our energies to prevent negative influences from settling and accumulating within us. Like impurities in a clear stream of water, negative energies can contaminate our emotional, mental, and physical well-being if we don’t take the necessary steps to eliminate them. By cleansing our energies, we maintain a vital balance, thereby preserving our overall health and fostering a more fulfilling and harmonious life.
Throughout the day, we’re exposed to a multitude of factors that can influence our energy, both positively and negatively. Among the elements that drain our energy and make it “bad,” we find:
Negative thoughts: Worries, rumination, self-judgment or judgment of others, dark thoughts, etc. These thoughts generate a flow of negative energy that affects our emotional and physical well-being.
Negative emotions: Frustrations, angers, resentments, fears, etc. These emotions disrupt our inner balance and create energetic blockages.
Environment: Being in places laden with negative histories or illnesses, associating with toxic or jealous people can influence our energy detrimentally.
Bad habits: Excessive consumption of alcohol, tobacco, drugs, unbalanced diet, lack of sleep, etc. These habits alter our physical and mental health, thus weakening our energy field.
Victimization: Adopting a victim mentality traps us in a negative spiral, preventing us from taking control of our lives and attracting positive energies.
This can lower your vibrational frequency and make you more susceptible to illness or hinder our connection with our “higher self,” that part of ourselves which holds infinite wisdom and potential.
Techniques to get rid of bad energy
Get rid of bad energy in the shower
Taking a shower can be an ideal moment to purify our energies. To begin, imagine the water flowing over you as a bright, white light, purifying everything in its path. Take deep breaths and visualize this light passing through every part of your body, eliminating all tension, negative thoughts, and stagnant energies. At the same time, allow the water to carry away anything that no longer serves you, leaving you filled with freshness and clarity. Visualize the soap or shower gel absorbing negative energies and washing them away with the flowing water.
You can also recite a positive affirmation or prayer during this process, strengthening your intention of purification. As you step out of the shower, feel light and revitalized, ready to face the rest of your day with renewed energy.
Get rid of bad energy with salt
A true protective shield, the unique crystalline structure of salt grants it remarkable power to capture and retain negative energies. When dissolved in water, it releases its purifying ions and cleanses deeply, carrying away energetic impurities. Submerge your hands in a warm mixture of saltwater and vigorously rub them, allowing the salt to act like a magnet to attract and absorb negative energies. Visualize these energies dissolving into the salt, thereby freeing your mind and body from any harmful influence. Rinse your hands thoroughly with clear water to remove any traces of captured negativity. Then, gently dry them and savor the sensation of freshness and lightness that fills your being.
Get rid of bad energy with rosemary
Light a white candle in a quiet space. Take a small amount of rosemary, known for its purifying properties, and let it burn gently over the flame of the candle. Allow the smoke to rise and fill the space around you. As you breathe deeply, imagine this purifying smoke enveloping your body, penetrating every cell to eliminate all negativity. Visualize yourself bathing in this smoke, feeling its beneficial effects on your being. Focus on the intention of purification and renewal. When you feel ready, use an appropriate tool to extinguish the candle, such as a snuffer, or your fingers (be careful not to burn yourself), and breathe deeply, experiencing the sensation of lightness and freshness that fills you.
