How do I lessen activity in my home?
Lessening activity in your home can be done with the following techniques:
​
- Tidying up often
- Rearranging when the energy feels stagnant
- Using associated herbs for cleansing purposes (Be mindful of pets)
- Placing four Quartz crystals at every corner of the room you're trying to cleanse
- Putting salt on a lemon and letting it sit out of reach for a few days (again, be wary of pets.) This will absorb negative energy in the room.
- Using bells or other forms of noise for a sound cleanse to move the stagnant energy around (open a window to release)
- Putting Moon water in a spray bottle and spray around the home
- Putting a line of salt in window sills or doorways to keep negative energy out
If activity continues following a cleanse, more forces could be at play. It is then when a medium, witch, reiki master, or exorcist should get involved.
