Sometimes a space carries more than just furniture — it holds tension or a heaviness you can't quite name. Maybe it's been a chaotic few months. Maybe something in your life has shifted, and now the energy at home feels off. You walk through the rooms and feel unsettled instead of calm. If you want your space to feel like a true refuge again, it might be time for a spiritual home cleansing to reset the atmosphere and bring a sense of clarity and peace back into your domain.

How do you begin to clear that invisible weight? Here are some effective methods for cleansing your home and inviting positive energy to flow in.

Incense cleansing

Incense has a long history of being used for purification and spiritual practices — it dates back to the sixth century in Japan, when it was central to cleansing rituals for the emperor and royal court. Even earlier, the Egyptians incorporated incense into their healing ceremonies, while the Babylonians used it during prayers to the gods.

To start, light the tip and let it burn for around ten seconds. Gently blow out the flame, leaving the end glowing, and place it in a holder. Allow the incense to burn naturally until it goes out on its own.

Salt cleansing

Salt is seen as a symbol of purity in Shinto tradition. It's often used to release emotional attachments to sentimental objects or to uplift the mood during personal rituals like bathing. To cleanse a space, simply sprinkle a pinch of salt into each corner of the room. Make sure the area is clean. Leave the salt for one to two days, then sweep or vacuum it up.

Shamanic energy medicine

While most spiritual home cleansing methods focus on clearing and balancing energy, guiding self-discovery, and helping clarify one's purpose, shamanism goes a bit further. It offers unique practices like divination, dreamwork, soul retrieval, and connecting with power animals, adding deeper layers to the healing process.

Shamanic practitioners use techniques like energy clearing, soul retrieval, and connecting with spiritual guides or power animals to remove negativity, heal past traumas, and restore life force.
