Cleansing, Protection and Grounding techniques

We move through life absorbing so much from our surroundings, the people we meet, and the emotions we carry day to day. Over time, this energy can settle in our aura and body, leaving us feeling heavy, unsettled, or disconnected from ourselves. These techniques are here to support you in gently returning to your centre. By cleansing, protecting and grounding your energy, you create space to reconnect with your inner calm, clarity and light. Take your time as you explore, and allow your body and intuition to guide you.

​ What Is an Aura?

​

Just like your physical body, your aura — your personal energy field — can be healthy or congested. It surrounds you whether you’re aware of it or not and reflects your emotional, physical, and spiritual well-being.

​

Your aura naturally absorbs energy from people, places, and situations. Without regular cleansing, it can become weighed down with heavy or stagnant vibrations, which can affect your mood, health, and spiritual clarity.

​

Think of your aura as a magnet that picks up the energy around you — even from your own thoughts! Negative self-talk, stress, or challenging environments can leave an imprint.

​

When we allow this energy to build up, it can create blocks that hold us back from growth, joy, and connection with our true purpose.

​

By regularly cleansing your aura, you can:

​

  • Think more clearly
     

  • Support physical and emotional well-being
     

  • Open yourself to love and connection
     

  • Experience deeper, more restful sleep
     

  • Reignite passion and purpose
     

  • Heighten your spiritual awareness and intuition
     


 

Cleansing Your Aura
​

Before you begin, set your intention.
You might say aloud or silently:

“I now release any energy, thoughts, or emotions that no longer serve my highest good.”

Intentions create the energetic foundation for all cleansing work.

​
Cleansing in the Shower.

Water is a powerful natural cleanser that can help wash away stagnant or negative energy. You can use it in many ways — such as immersing yourself in a bath, standing under a waterfall, or simply using your daily shower as a sacred energetic cleanse.

​

As you stand under the water, take a few deep breaths to relax and connect to your body. Visualise pure white light flowing through the water, washing over your head and body. See it cleansing your aura — removing any negativity or stagnant energy and sending it down the drain (or into the Earth) to be recycled into healing light by the Universe.

​

You may also imagine the white light entering through your crown chakra and filling you completely with peace and renewal. Finish by expressing gratitude for the cleansing experience and for the fresh, positive energy that now surrounds you.

​

​

White Light Cleansing, Grounding & Protection

Imagine strong roots growing from the soles of your feet deep into the Earth.
Now visualise a brilliant white light above your crown chakra.
Bring this light down through each chakra, filling your whole body with luminous energy.

See it rotating within you, dissolving anything that’s not for your highest good.
Then let it expand outward, clearing your aura of any lingering heaviness.
When the cleansing feels complete, send that energy up to the Universe to be transformed into healing light.

Finally, surround yourself with a cocoon of white light — your personal bubble of protection.
Take a moment to give thanks for this energy and feel your vibration rise.

​

​

Walking in the Rain

Rain is one of nature’s purest cleansers.
Next time it rains, go for a mindful walk and imagine each drop washing away stress, anxiety, or negativity.
Feel refreshed and renewed — but avoid walking in a thunderstorm, as lightning energy can feel too intense.

 


 

Salt Baths 

 Water and salt are classic energy cleansers.
Add a handful of Pink Himalayan salt or Celtic sea salt to your bath.
As you soak, set the intention to release all energies that no longer serve your highest good.
Visualise the salt drawing away heaviness and the water restoring your natural light and vitality.

​

​Protecting Your Aura

​

Once your aura is cleansed, protecting your energy helps you stay balanced and radiant throughout the day.

​

 Bubble of Light

Close your eyes and take a few deep breaths.
Imagine a white light above your head, flowing down and around you — forming a bubble of pure protection.
Affirm that this light keeps you safe, calm, and centred.
You can refresh this bubble anytime during your day.

​

​

 

Cloak of Protection

Visualise yourself wearing a long, sweeping cloak made of deep midnight blue fabric, with a hood you can pull up to cover your crown chakra.
The lining can be silver, pink, golden, or multicoloured.
Whenever you feel the need for protection, imagine putting on your cloak and feel yourself enveloped in peace and strength.

 

 

 

Mirror Shield

Imagine mirrors surrounding you, reflecting outward.
Set the intention that any negative energy sent your way is deflected and returned to its source — transformed into love.

​

​

​

 

 

Protective Crystals

Crystals can strengthen your aura and help maintain harmony in your energy field.

Black Tourmaline – Grounds, protects, and absorbs negativity.
Amethyst – Cleanses the aura and promotes calm, spiritual connection, and inner peace.
Hematite – Anchors your energy and reduces stress.
Black Obsidian – A powerful protector and aura cleanser.

Carry them, wear them, or place them in your home or workspace to support energetic protection.

​

​Releasing Energetic Cords & Hooks

When you interact with people, you form energetic cords — pathways through which energy flows both ways.
Over time, some cords can drain your vitality, especially when connected to stress, conflict, or worry.

To clear these cords, call on Archangel Michael, the Archangel of protection and strength.

You can simply say:

“Archangel Michael, please cut and release any cords that are no longer serving my highest good.”

Visualise him using his sword of light to gently cut the cords, freeing you from anything that weighs you down.

You can also ask him to remove any energetic “hooks” or debris from your back using his magnet of light.
Trust that the clearing is taking place, even if you can’t visualise it clearly.

​

Cleansing Your Home or Workspace

Call upon Archangel Michael and say:

“Archangel Michael, please remove any lower vibrations or negative energies from every part of my home.
Fill this space with bright healing light.
Cut away any negative cords, fears, or attachments, and send love and healing to everyone within this home.
Please stand at each corner and protect us with your light. Thank you.”

Always finish with gratitude.

​

​Grounding Yourself

Grounding balances your spiritual and physical energy, helping you feel clear, centred, and present.
When you’re grounded, you feel calm and in control.
When ungrounded, you may feel scattered, anxious, or disconnected.

Grounding helps you draw strength from the Earth, align with your vision, and bring your energy back home to yourself.

​

 

Grounding Techniques

 

Roots Visualization:
Imagine roots growing from the soles of your feet deep into Mother Earth.
Feel her nurturing energy rising through those roots, filling your body with strength and calm.

​

Sitting on the Earth:
Sit directly on the ground and imagine your roots anchoring deeply.
Breathe in Earth’s warmth and stability.

​

Walking Barefoot:
Walk barefoot on grass or sand and really feel the connection beneath your feet.
Let stress flow out through your soles and fresh energy rise up.

​

Walking in Nature:
Each step is a connection — breathe, observe, and feel yourself recharge in nature’s energy.

​

Stamp Your Feet:
If you’re feeling scattered, gently stamp your feet to call your energy back into your body — grounding yourself instantly.



 


Harnessing Crystal Energy for Daily Vitality

 

Visualise roots extending from your feet deep into the Earth, wrapping around a beautiful crystal — perhaps clear quartz or amethyst.
Feel its radiant energy rising through the roots into your body, filling you with vitality and stability.
This crystal connection keeps you balanced, calm, and energised throughout your day.

 

 

 

 

Find What Resonates

There are many ways to ground and cleanse your energy — meditation, breathwork, journaling, creative hobbies, or gentle movement.
Follow what feels right for you, and make it part of your self-care routine.

​

Your aura is a reflection of your light — your spiritual fingerprint.
When you cleanse, protect, and ground your energy regularly, you align with peace, clarity, and purpose.
Remember to honour your energy, and let your light shine brightly into the world.
