Your Whole Human Energy System & How to Clean It
We are energetic beings living in an energetic world. We are constantly interacting with and exchanging energy as a process of life. Everything we attract and exchange with is an extension of the energy we embody in form. We turn inwards to explore the energy we hold in our whole human energy system,
Whole Human Energy System:
Every part of our being is energy. But to simplify things, we can break it down into four core components: the energy of our soul, the energy in the mind, the energy in the physical body, and the energy in the energy field (extension of body).
The energy of the soul - the soul is energy, it represents our natural, divine intelligence. We want to excavate it and reconnect it to the whole system.
The energy in the mind - the mind is a tool that processes energy and converts into thought or action. A build up of too much unprocesssed energy in the mind can be felt as mind racing, stress, anxiety, noise, disturbances, chaos, confusion, etc. This is usually a result from taking in too many external inputs from the surrounding environment, society, people, tv, media/content, etc. An inbalance and excess of energy in the mind can also be auto-generated by the mind’s existing operating system or program, auto-creating patterns, defenses, reactions, thoughts, etc.
The energy in the body - the body is a tool that carries our human fucntioning and action, and pocesses subtle energies in the environment for internal feedback. It is also where unprocessed emotional energies are stored if repressed from the energy field.
The energy in the energy field - the energy field is an extension of your human energy system and body. It is a first line defense and signal receiver for energy interactions in your environment. Energy fields are meant to be space for emotional energy and energy exchange to come and go but not to live. Most people will remain unconscious as to what exists in their energy fields (and minds and bodies), and will usually accumulate and store all sorts of energies there.
How to Clean Your Energy
Energy cleaning is a layered approach, from the surface-level to the deep.
Surface-level: Environmental and Physical
Cleansing and removing physical waste from your body.
Cleaning and removing physical waste from your home and immediate environment.
Eliminate clutter and things you don’t need or don’t serve you.
Surround yourself and home with nature and trees. Plant a garden, plant flowers. Create a natural safe ecosystem for birds, butterflies, and animals to enjoy. Fill your home with healthy plants.
Fill your home with natural sunlight and circulated fresh air from the outdoors.
Utilize energy cleansing tools for environmental energy cleaning:
Sage or Copal: used for deep cleaning of energy in your space. Sweep across the room clockwise, giving special attention to corners, dark spaces, and closets. Run through the space until the smoke runs clear. If the smoke is dark, keep cleaning. Make sure to keep a window open to let the smoke out.
Water & Sea Salt: used for deep cleaning of energy in your space as well. Clean by putting jars of water and sea salt in each corner of the room.
Incense: used for light, daily maintenance.
Palo Santo: used to purify the energy and to give an uplifting energy to the space.
Tingsha Bell: used to clear and reset the energy. 3xs in each corner of the room (clockwise): resets and clears the energy. If you want, you can say a little prayer while doing this and set an intention for the space.
Black Tourmaline: used to absorb and protect from negative energies, energy from wifi and electronic devices.
Himalayan Salt Lamp: used to release negative ions for boost in energy, air purification, neutralize pollutants.
Surface-level: Mental
Do an audit of everything you give your attention to. The habits and behaviors you have. The conversations you have. The content you read. Etc.
Consider where you may be feeding and participating in the energies of fear, hopelessness, apathy, judgement, complaining, negativity, gossip, revenge, pettiness, passive-aggressiveness, hate, blaming, exploitation, victimhood, etc. It could be activities such as participating in conversations that fuels those energies, reading the news or content that perpetuate those energies, or particpating in experiences or events that generate those energies. Consider for your self what energies you wish to invite into your life, and be open to considering how you may be embodying those very same energies inside.
Deeper-Level: Emotional, Spiritual
Feel all of your emotions. Do not repress, stop, control the emotion, allow it to surface and be felt in your whole being. Once the wave passes, let it go, and do not identify with it. Consider what it may be telling you or showing you.
Cultivate a (energy) meditation practice to excavate old energy within, and cleanse energy in the mind, body and energy field.
Excavate deeper fears, traumas, wounds, unresolved experiences that require learning and releasing.
Explore existing operating system, programming, and beliefs that predetermine your inclinations, decisions, and patterns.
