Does your house feel heavy? Do this and feel the change instantly
There are days when everything seems fine, but upon entering our homes we feel something we can’t explain: a dense, oppressive atmosphere, as if the very energy were stagnant. This feeling of heaviness in the home is more common than we imagine, and it’s not always related to clutter or stress.
From a spiritual perspective, our home absorbs and retains vibrations that can affect our mood, our rest, and even our emotional health. That’s why today we’re sharing what you can do to renew the energy of your home and feel the change immediately.
Why do we feel heaviness in our house?
From a spiritual perspective, spaces hold memories. The walls, objects, and every corner of the home can retain the emotions we experience daily: arguments, anxieties, fears, and tensions. Visits with negative energy or certain habits can also contribute to stagnant energy.
Furthermore, if you go through a difficult period (such as a loss, illness, or conflict), it’s very likely that this energy will permeate your environment. And this generates the familiar “heaviness”: fatigue, insomnia, bad mood, and a constant feeling of discomfort.
How to cleanse the energy of your home
Ventilate and let in the light
First and foremost: open all the windows. Let the air circulate, let the old energy move and escape. Sunlight also has a very powerful purifying effect. Do this at least once a day, even if it’s just for half an hour.
Light a white candle
The white candle represents peace, purity, and harmony. Light it with a clear intention: that the light may cleanse and raise the vibration of the space. You can accompany it with a prayer, a positive thought, or an affirmation such as: “My home is filled with light and good energy.”
Use salt to absorb negativity
Salt is one of the most commonly used elements in energy cleansing. Place small containers of coarse salt in the corners of rooms for 24 hours. Then flush the salt down the toilet or throw it away from your house. You can also sprinkle some salt in the corners before sweeping.
Sounds that unlock
Sound has enormous power to move stagnant energy. You can use bells, Tibetan singing bowls, or even clap loudly in the corners of each room. This helps to “awaken” the energy and set it in motion.
Cleanse with herbs
Burning herbs like rosemary, rue, bay leaves, or palo santo helps eliminate negative energy. Waft the smoke throughout your home, especially into corners, behind doors, and near windows. Always do this with a clear intention of cleansing and protection.
How to smudge your house to remove bad energy
Smudging is an ancient practice used in many cultures to cleanse and protect spaces. It involves burning dried herbs or resins so that the smoke acts as a spiritual purifier. It is ideal for removing negative energy, attracting peace, and renewing the energy of the home.
What do you need to smudge?
- A heat-resistant container (such as a clay incense burner or an abalone shell)
- Charcoal or self-igniting
- Dried herbs such as:
- Rosemary (cleansing and strength)
- Rue (protection and cutting off envy)
- Laurel (abundance and clarity)
- Palo santo or copal (harmonization)
- Lavender (peace and relaxation)
- A lighter or matches
Step by step to smudge your house
- Prepare the space.
Open windows and doors so that negative energy can leave. Make sure to do this at a quiet time, without interruptions. - Light the charcoal.
Place it in the container and wait until it glows red hot. - Add the herbs.
Once the charcoal is ready, place your chosen herbs or resins on top of it. The smoke will begin to rise. - Walk through your home with intention.
Slowly walk through each room carrying the incense burner. Focus especially on the corners, behind doors, and near windows. As you do this, think about what you want to release and what you wish to attract. You can say aloud phrases like:
“I cleanse this space of all negative energy and fill it with light, peace, and protection.” - Let the smoke dissipate.
Once the tour is over, let the charcoal burn completely in a safe place. Do not extinguish it with water. - Close the ritual with gratitude.
Give thanks for the cleansing, for the new cycle that begins in your home, and close the ritual with a feeling of renewal.
Additional tips for maintaining good energy
- Organize and get rid of what you don’t use: accumulated and unused objects create stagnation.
- Avoid arguments in common areas: the power of words is very strong.
- Play soft music or mantras: the harmonic sound raises the frequency of the place.
- Spray water with lemon or white vinegar: it cleanses and neutralizes bad vibes.
- Place protective quartz or stones: such as amethyst, white quartz, or black tourmaline.
Feeling that our home breathes and embraces us with a light and harmonious energy is priceless. Do it with awareness, dedication, and good intentions. The change isn’t just noticeable… it’s felt.
