Removing Negative Energy and Adding Protection to Your Home with a Salt Bowl
Did you ever notice how your entire being feels when you are at the beach. The amazing energy, how clean and fresh the air is. How it helps you to breathe, relax, and see things so much more clearly. For thousands of years people from all over the world, salt has been considered not only a protective but a cleansing agent, both physically and metaphysically. Not only can a salt bowl in your home energetically cleanse and protect it, but it can absorb water, emitions, and kill bacteria.
The Purpose of a Cleansing Salt Bowl.
Tell me:
Do you ever return home feeling oppressed, weighed down by negative energy?
Do you long for a simple way to remove and shed that burden before you cross that threshold?
Do you wish you could remove everyone else’s negative energy before they cross your threshold?
Do you wish to keep negative/evil entities and spirits outside your home, and block them from coming in?
Well, I have just thing!
Think of the salt bowl for your home to be just like a salt bath you do for yourself. We will be using very similar ingredients and intentions for both recipes. The only difference is that you can do this effortlessly with instantaneous results just by passing by or touching the bowl with intention!
Here is how you will create your own Salt Bowl:
What You Will Need:
- Choose Your Bowl: Any Bowl of your choice. It can be as plain or as decorative as you desire. Remember that salt will cause metal to rust and will absorb into substances such as wood.
- Salt: ritual coarse selt , dead sea salt, Himalayan pink salt, volcanic salt, even Celtic.
- Herbs: pine, cedar tips, juniper berries, clove buds, rosemary, bay leaves, rue, etc. You could even cut a lemon or lime.
- Essential Oils: frankincense, myrrh, amber, lemon, sweet orange, lavender, white sage, thieves, etc…..
- Crystals: amethyst, clear and smokey quartz, labradorite, and shungite.
Here Is Your How To:
- See, feel, and hold your intention within your mind and your spirit as you collect your supplies.
- Cleanse and purify your space using your preferred method.
- Be sure to charge and infuse all of the supplies with your Intention.
- Spread a layer of your salt into the bottom of your bowl.
- Place your herbs on top of your salt layer.
- Now sprinkle on your oils, only a few drops!
- Time to place your crystals on top of the layer of herbs – (Be aware that not all crystals will react well to prolonged exposure to salt. know your crystals and do your research)
- Set your intentions to clearly to the Universe and Spirit. This will help to ensure that the salt bowl, you, and the universe are all in agreeance and vibrating on the same frequency. I am pretty hands on with my work, so I do like to mix everything together with my fingers and speak my intention out loud. Example for what you might say: “May this salt cleanse the energy of my home and protect me and all who live here from negativity.” If you can can focus and go into spirit during this process do so. As you do feel yourself becoming free from the oppression, weightless, cleansed, and align your energy with the purpose of the salt bowl.
- Place your bowl in a safe place that feels right to you, this can be in the kitchen, n ear a main door, your living room, bedroom, etc. You can use more than one bowl; if you like (the bowls can be small) and they can be out in the open or somewhere less obvious. You can place salt bowls in the corners of a room. This can create a very magical-feeling space! If you want to try this out, but don’t want to commit to four salt bowls, sprinkle salt from your main bowl into the corners of your room. You can also sprinkle salt on your windowsills, as long as a pet won’t jump up there, and as long as the windowsills are not metal, which is susceptible to rusting in salty conditions. You can also sprinkle a little bit of your salt over the carpet and let it absorb for an hour or so before vacuuming it up. It really does change the energy of the room!
- When you pass by the bowl touch your fingers or just simply visualize pushing negative energies into it to be cleansed and transmuted into loving and healing energy. Use it as a cleanser of your energy. Touch the salt with your hands to ground any errant energy.
- When the bowl stops feeling clean or feels “full” simply refresh the contents
Warning:
DO NOT, I say again, DO NOT eat the salt. You created it with the specific intent to absorb negativity, so it’s not a smart idea to consume it now is it?!
Do not leave it out in a place where your pets will come into contact with it.
When the energy of the bowl doesn’t feel cleansing anymore, it’s time to get rid of it. You can either tip it into the trash, or toss it outside someplace where you wish to prevent plants from sprouting (like the cracks between concrete).
Happy Cleansing,
