Life is full of various energies that we encounter from different sources, such as people, spirits, places, and situations. These energies can sometimes make us feel drained or overwhelmed. Whether you are a spiritual seeker, an empath, or simply trying to navigate complex human interactions, it is essential to have tools to help you disconnect and restore balance within yourself. Here are a few of my favorite techniques that anyone can use to sever unwanted connections and regain their sense of inner peace and harmony:

1. “Crystals for Clarity”: Selenite is a crystal well-known for its high frequency and ability to eliminate negative energy and promote tranquility. Selenite wands are excellent tools for purifying your energy and balancing any imbalances. To use them, move the wand through your aura while visualizing it, absorbing and transmuting any negative or stagnant energy. After each pass, you should feel lighter and more centered as unwanted vibrations are lifted away. The ethereal glow of selenite only adds to the experience.
2. “Cutting Ties and Removing Connections”: Imagine energetic cords or attachments between you and unwanted energies of people, places, spirits, or situations. Visualize yourself severing these cords or attachments by swiftly and decisively wiping your body with your hands and moving away from your body. By releasing these connections, you can feel a sense of liberation and empowerment washing over you, allowing you to reclaim your space and autonomy.
3. “Candle Ritual”: Extinguishing a candle can serve as a powerful ritual that symbolizes closure and release. It can be done at the end of a mediumship reading, meditation session, or a challenging day. When you blow out the flame, visualize any lingering energies disperse into the air and return to their source. Take a deep breath and feel a sense of relief and renewal, knowing you have respected the process and restored balance.
4. “Gratitude & Affirmations” is a technique that can help you disconnect from negative energies. Instead of focusing on the negative aspects of a situation, this technique involves using positive language to express gratitude for the lessons learned and opportunities for growth. By affirming your sovereignty and resilience with statements like “I am thankful for the messages of peace from Spirit. Please guide them where they are needed” or “I let go of all that no longer serves me with gratitude and grace,” you can shift your vibration and repel unwanted energies while inviting positivity into your life.
5. “Protective Bubble Meditation”: To start with, close your eyes and visualize a column of light coming from your higher power and pouring into the crown of your head. Visualize this light filling your body and expanding beyond yourself, creating a shimmering bubble of protective light. This bubble should extend several feet in all directions around you. As you inhale, draw in pure and revitalizing energy from the universe. And as you exhale, release any unwanted energies outside your protective bubble. You should feel the strength of your energetic boundaries fortifying and shielding you from external influences.

By incorporating specific techniques into your daily routine, such as the ones mentioned above or the commonly used smudging ritual, you can develop the ability to manage the ups and downs of life with grace and resilience. These practices can create a calm and clear space amidst the continuous fluctuations of life’s energies, whether you encounter challenges in your relationships, work, or personal growth. Always remember that you have the power to shape your energetic environment and reclaim your sense of balance and inner peace, regardless of the obstacles.
