Cleansing Yourself

Something which magical practitioners don’t do nearly enough is cleansing their physical and energetic bodies of the negative astral sludge one can pick up on a daily basis. The more empathetic you are and become the more important this is especially if you are feeling energetically shitty.

I try to cleanse myself at least once a week. Bear Hearts Apollo Cleansing video is great but here are two methods which I currently use which work wonders:

Method 1: Spiritual detox bath (full credit to Bear Heart)

You will need:

1 white candle

Rue

Basil

Mint

Epsom bath salts

Run a hot bath which isn’t scorching but you can comfortably soak in for 20-30 minutes. Get a large cup of Epsom bath salts and a handful of each of the 3 herbs and add them to the bath just before you get in and give them a swirl.

Light the white candle and place it where you can easily see it while in the bath. Once in the bath softly gaze at the candle and pray to prime creator that this bath cleanses your physical and energetic bodies and purges you of all negative energies. I will usually listen to some relaxing pineal gland activation music on YouTube (there’s lots available to listen to). I will also perform the three treasuries breathing detailed in Bear Hearts video:

Just relax and visualize all the negative sludge seep out of your body into the bath water. Remember to completely submerge your head as well. Once you are done stay in the bath and lie there until all of the bath water has gone down the drain along with all the negative energy. You will feel totally purged and also very relaxed. You will have a lot of the herbs clinging to your body and hair so shower them off.

Additional cleansing method: clearing your head channel (full credit to Super Draco Slayer)

This is optional but great for clearing and cleansing your head channel. Once you have showered off the herbs and no longer look like the swamp thing, towel yourself off and take a cup of coconut milk and add a small amount of white rum pour it over your head and massage it in. This won’t leave a greasy residue and will be very cleansing for your head. Allow it to dry on its own.

Remember. Make sure you cleanse on a regular basis!

Enjoy!
