Negative energy can build up in both physical spaces and our personal energetic fields. It makes us feel drained, overwhelmed, or just generally "off." Clearing this dense energy is essential for maintaining balance and well-being. When ignored over time, it also limits our ability to move forward joyfully in life.
Luckily, many techniques exist for releasing negativity from spaces and people. Different tools work better depending on the specific situation. Tune into your intuition to sense which approach feels most needed in the moment. With regular clearing practices established, you'll feel refreshed and refocused on a day-to-day basis.
Here are some common symptoms of negative energy buildup in your personal energy field or environment:
Personal Energy Field Symptoms
Feeling suddenly exhausted, drained, or excessively sleepy
Experiencing unexplained body aches and pains
Feeling unusually emotional or moody
Having persistent negative thoughts
Feeling "stuck," unable to progress forward
Loss of motivation and drive
Withdrawing from life or normal activities
Lacking inspiration or joy
Environmental Energy Symptoms
Tension, arguments, or discord among people
Electronics glitching unexpectedly
Lights flickering without reason
Unpleasant smells emerging without cause
Room feels stuffy or stale
Pets acting anxious or agitated
Difficulty concentrating or thinking clearly
Psychic Attack Symptoms
Waking suddenly from sleep feeling afraid
Hearing voices, noises, or your name called out
Feeling sudden sharp pains with no physical cause
Having bad dreams or nightmares
Thoughts seeming unusually hostile or cruel
Extreme fatigue after being in public places
Feeling nauseous without physical cause
Tingling, vibration, or crawling sensations under skin
Pay attention to any strong negative energetic shifts in yourself or the environment. Trust your intuition if something feels amiss. Then you can address it by clearing dense energy contributing to the symptoms. Consistent mind/body/space energetic hygiene helps to keep things balanced.
The Value of Regular Clearing Rituals
It's valuable to incorporate regular clearing rituals rather than just doing occasional deep cleanses. This ensures you don't accumulate too much density before addressing it.
When negative emotional, psychic or environmental energy accumulates unchecked, it clogs up spaces energetically. The denser vibes weigh us down over time, depleting vitality, clouding perspective and blocking flow.
That's why consistent mind/body/space maintenance is key. Think of it like cleaning out closet clutter before it avalanches or doing quick surface tidying versus deep spring cleans.
The more often you gently sweep away smaller amounts of negative energy through quick clearing rituals, the less often you'll need intensive energetic haul-outs.
Tuning Into Your Energetic Needs
Pay attention to signs your personal energy fields or spaces around you seem compromised. Once aware of how negative energy uniquely manifests for you, you can address it right away rather than letting it pile up.
Over time you'll intuitively know what clearing approach works best for your specific needs in any given moment. Certain heavier energies require more invasive techniques like burning herbs or rattling drums to fully shake loose, whereas lighter vibrational sludginess lifts away through music or diffusing a bright scent.
Trust that you'll sustain the highest clarity and positivity for yourself and spaces by listening to inner guidance on appropriate clearing methods. Consistent energetic hygiene ensures you always operate from a clear, conscious state where intuition flows freely again.
Here are a few simple yet highly effective ways to remove stagnant or negative energy from energetic fields and physical environments:
Burn Dried Herbs
Burning cleansing plants like white sage or palo santo is one of the most common methods for energetically purifying spaces. As the herbs smolder they release smoke that deeply penetrates the environment, attaching itself to dense energy and lifting it away.
How to know when to use it: You'll benefit from saging your home when you generally feel off in the space for no apparent reason. You might sense lingering imprints from heated arguments, tense guests, or your own negative thought patterns. It's also ideal to sage a new home before moving your belongings in so you begin fresh in the space.
Make smudging motions in front of you with your dominant hand (or both) to "wave away" dense energy from your aura. Consciously brush away unwanted energy from the sides of your body as well out in front of your solar plexus.
Use hand smudging after being around groups where you pick up collective energy, when entering new spaces, and even to start and end your workday by waving off stagnant work energy.
Clear with Sound
Bells, gongs, chimes, drumming, clapping, or chanting vocally generates waves of healing sound that disrupt negative energies. The steady vibrations shake up the energetic environment, breaking up stuck pockets of density and stagnation to restore smooth flow.
The pure tones of chimes or crystal singing bowls wash density away with gentle penetrating sound vibrations. Allow the notes to journey as far as possible through the energy field. Repeat a few times for resonance.
Use sound healing tools when clashing energies need rebalancing – especially between people, or when one area of your home or aura specifically feels heavy, blocked or unwell. Bells invoke cleansing energies of water and wind elements.
The sacred instruments physically reverberate at a higher frequency to dissolve lower vibrating energies. Definitely employ sound after heated conflicts or perceived psychic attacks.
Use 528Hz Gregorian Chanting
Gregorian chants sung by monks utilize the 528Hz "love" frequency. This key vibration structurally reorganizes water molecules in our bodies and environments to heal at the quantum level.
528Hz frequencies purge impurities, lift consciousness, and awaken intuition. Gregorian 528Hz chants specifically hold space for the Holy Spirit to permeate and recalibrate dense spaces. As these holy tones shift energy into symmetry, divine unity overrides discord. Play these 528Hz-tuned Gregorian healing chants to powerfully transmute lower realm influences seeking to distort your energy.
St. Benedict’s prayer, the Chaplet of Divine Mercy, and Verdi’s Dies Irae all feature 528Hz tones. Chanting them returns integrity to the bioelectric flow through bodies and buildings. Crystal bowls can also be tuned to project 528Hz for protecting spaces. Surround yourself with these miraculous 528Hz Gregorian melodies to keep your home and soul temple consecrated as a sacred refuge from negativity.
Ho'oponopono for Self-Clearing
Ho'oponopono is the ancient Hawaiian art of correcting errors within oneself through taking full responsibility, repentance, and amendment. Practitioners use a mental cleansing mantra to clear negativity:
"I'm sorry, please forgive me, thank you, I love you."
You can say this aloud or silently to transmute blocked energies causing distress. The mindful words shift internal vibrations from lower states back into alignment and flow.
Benefits include reduced anxiety, peaceful resolution of trapped emotional pain, and healing relationships as you take accountability for co-creating past hurts. It helps you move forward unfettered by residual burdens.
Ho’oponopono works well when recurring problems reappear for releasing attachment to being right. It also complements other cleansing methods by ensuring leftover debris doesn’t stick around inside after external space clearing.
Correct errors and restore harmony internally and out by taking 100% responsibility for your reality with this humble, honest mantra. Continuous ho'oponopono practice keeps destructive programming from looping so positive energy can fill the void.
Space Clearing Plants
Houseplants like snake plant, aloe vera, ferns, peace lily, orchids, bamboo and English ivy absorb negativity from the air while transpiring oxygen. Keep them in rooms prone to tense energies. Their mere presence gently clears space without much effort.
Place plants anywhere that could use extra purification without harsher methods. Foyers, bedrooms, and home office spaces benefit in particular. Rotate plants outside to recharge in the fresh air when their energies feel depleted.
Sea Salt Sprays
Mix sea salt in water and load it into a spray bottle to mist around energy-congested rooms. Salt crystals have a purifying and protective quality that cuts through lower vibrations. Spritzing salt water essentially scrubs the air energetically. It also instantly raises the vibration.
Use a salt spray after having visitors over who may have brought heavy energies, or when shared living spaces feel compromised. Spray around the perimeter of a room or your property outdoors for added security against lower energies accumulating again.
Spiritual Cleansing Baths
Taking a spiritual bath can wash away negative energies, uplift your vibration, and recharge your personal energy field. Infusing water with healing ingredients energetically cleanses your aura, clears blocked chakras, and restores inner harmony.
Begin with a cleansing base of epsom or sea salts, which help extract built-up vibrational debris from your energy body. Then add essential oils like sage, frankincense, rose, or lavender for powerful purification effects based on your needs. You can further amplify benefits by incorporating color-charged crystals.
When soaking in your infused bath water, consciously release stuck emotions, limiting beliefs, traumas, attachments, or patterns causing distress. Visualize the water extracting dense energies to leave you renewed. Affirm sacred space for positive intentions to manifest.
Spiritual bathing works wonderfully after overexertion, psychic attack recovery, or whenever you feel weighed down emotionally. It aligns your full being - body, mind, and spirit - with your highest potential so you emerge ready for pivotal change.
Open Doors and Windows
Sometimes your home needs to air out physically as well. Open doors throughout the house to allow stuck energy to flow outside. Letting fresh air and sunlight in raises the vibration, inviting positive energy back in.
Do this first thing when you wake up and before bed, or when your home feels stuffy, tense, or stagnant. Think of it as a feng shui oxygenating treatment. Windows open on either side of a room allows cross breezes to sweep density away.
Diffuse Organic Food Grade Essential Oils
Diffusing cleansing scents like lemon, pine, sage, frankincense, lavender, or tea tree can instantly shift the energy. The tiny aromatic molecules penetrate the air to lift its quality.
Use essential oils when you feel specifically called to experience a scent for its healing properties. Each one works uniquely for different circumstances. For example, lemon boosts mood, sage removes negativity, and lavender aids relaxation. Follow your intuition on which essence to diffuse.

Visualization Techniques
Imagining dense energy draining away from a space as golden light fills it instead can manifest actual energetic shifts and flow. Visualize the golden light flooding in from outside windows to push stagnation out. Or picture a vortex funneling dense energy downwards out of each room and the building.
Use visualization when you simply need a quick on-the-spot clearing without physically doing anything at all. It works well after tense encounters or when you feel overloaded by too many priorities, responsibilities, etc., swirling around you energetically.
Laughing and Singing
Increasing joy, delight, and self-expression instantly begins to clear heaviness as you raise your vibration from fear-based emotions into enthusiasm, passion, and lightness. Open yourself to receive inspiration then sing your unique song or simply laugh for no reason at all!
Laughter and singing dissolve tension and seriousness, making way for new possibilities to unfold. Use it when your mood sinks too low or you forget to have fun. It's wonderful medicine for lifting the energy all around you.
Rattle or Drum
Shaking a rattle or banging a drum builds sacred sound energy to cut through denser vibrations clogging a space. Allow the reverberations to permeate walls, floors, and ceilings as you journey around the room. Rattles are also excellent for personal aura clearing.
Use a rattle after arguments, when your living environment seems unusually chaotic, or you feel internally off from stress, grief, or carrying other's emotional burdens. Rattling brings your energy back to center so you don't pick up on environmental energy.
Clear Clutter
Clutter easily traps negative energy, and cleaning it out lifts the vibration instantly. Remove clutter from countertops, pile-up areas, crammed closets or under beds. Donate unused items, organize files, and categorize possessions you do keep.
Physically clearing your environment of disorder directly parallels clearing out stagnation energetically. It also minimizes energetic overstimulation that drains you. Use this approach whenever mess has piled up and your energy sinks as a result.
Protective Crystals
Black tourmaline, obsidian, labradorite, pyrite and selenite crystals ward off unwanted energy entering a space. They also prevent density you clear out from returning right away. Place them by entrances or in grid formations around the perimeter of a room or home.
Use protective crystals when you feel vulnerable to outside influences coming into your home or aura causing you distress. For example, arguments with a spouse impact the whole space. Crystals act as energy guards, shielding you from taking on disputes or the energy of others.
Dissolve Astral Cords
Cords of attachment form between people and places whenever significant exchanges of energy occur. Visualize cords tied to your heart retracting back with each breath as you reclaim your power after lengthy relationships, time spent in intense spaces, or unhealthy exchanges.
Additionally, use the spiritual sword or golden scissors visualization to cut all cords feeding fear, drama and negativity to transmute experiences. Or see them dissolving in violet flame. Release others with love and forgiveness. Now residual energy can't find you.
Surrender and Let Go Ritual
Writing down what you wish to release on paper and burning it breaks energetic and emotional ties to what holds you back. Write and burn away fears, limiting beliefs, stuck thoughts or heavy emotions. Cry if emotions arise while you let go. When finished place the ashes in moving water.
Do this ritual as often as you feel the need to purge emotional density that builds up internally, or combine it with external space clearing so you don't invite stagnation back in right away unconsciously. It complements other techniques.
The Power of Mindful Energetic Hygiene
Clearing environments and ourselves of negative energy is pivotal for our well-being. When dense vibrations accumulate, they drain vitality over time and disrupt flow.
Which approach works best depends on the unique situation. With mindful tuning into the subtle energetic field around you, it becomes easier to sense when cleansing would help reset alignment. Consistent clearing practices keep energy moving smoothly again.
The more aware you become of your innate power to transmute lower vibrations into positive flow, the more empowered, peaceful and purposeful life feels. Committing to ongoing energetic hygiene ensures you can progress unhampered by negativity dragging you off course.
By consciously curating higher vibrational environments around you, while also shifting internal thought patterns up the frequency scale, you directly impact rhizomatic consciousness too. Each small choice to clear dense energy makes way for more uplifting energy overall.
You’ve really packed in some great advice for clearing negativity. It’s sometimes a battle in me to send it completely away after it’s entered your space. It comes into your life from many directions. In the past when negative it he creeps up I focus on joyful activities. This seems to clear some of the air but not all of it. I see there are more steps I can take.
One thing I did though and it suggestion of a friend is a through away objects which I believe has an attached to negativity. For instance I knew this lady who lives in to Antonella very tight Satanism. She often gave me gifts. And to make a long story short she ended up being a very very bad person in my life. At the suggestion of a friend from Hawaii who is spiritually enlightened from her cultural perspective I threw away all of her gifts and much of that negativity vanished. It was very difficult for me to throw her things out because I wanted to keep them. I had become attached to them. For instance a real cute Mickey Mouse T-shirt I just loved…. Into the trash it went! And maybe it was just me? But I felt that immediate release over the next weeks of some thing in the air just disappearing.
Thank you so much, your advice completes the steps I need to do to banish that energy from my life. Sending you love and much gratitude! ✨💜💫✨💜🤗
I missed playing the piano last week because of the hitting my head incident, so they didn't have a pianist. I was back this week and I told them thank you for the cards and the flowers and their thoughts "As long as they were good" - I got a nice laugh out of that. I was dead serious :) Haha. I have been fending off judgements and incorrect depictions of me. It's weird, when you decide that you no longer want anyone's thoughts unless they are loving and kind, suddenly it's like you KNOW. You can TELL whether their thoughts are loving and kind or judgmental and ill intended. I have a bubble around me full of green healing for energy, surrounded by pink love and there is a translucent layer which is a protective layer that can keep me from being seen by those who would wish me ill will. When I produce something negative into my own space (the bubble) from my mind, and realize that I have contaminated it myself, I imagine picking up one side of the bubble and sweeping that idea out. It's working for me. Another good way to clear negative energy on a regular basis is to have people in your life that understand that it is a REAL THING! THANKS to you, Demi. Thanks to you.
