The Greater NYC Smudge Cleanse
The aura given out by a person or object is as much a part of them as their flesh. ~ Lucian Freud
After taking some advice I have decided to do a bit of research about the sort of thing dealing with auras, or rather cleansing them. You know, its a lot easier than taking your dry cleaning in, and takes less time (roughly 15 minutes or however long you wish) than it would to get a single garmet steam dried.
Here are some interesting ways to do so:
- Using your fingers as a comb, comb through the space surrounding your body from head to toe. Clean your hands with running water before and after doing this.
- Stand under a waterfall or shower.
- Walking in the rainfall.
- Run freely and playfully in the wind.
- Using a single feather or feather whisk (owl feathers for example are quite good) make sweeping motions through the space surrounding your body.
- Smudge the area surrounding your body with the smoke from sage, lavender, and/or sweet grass.
- Immerse and soak your body in an Epsom salt bath.
Also, after finding the “7 Ways to Cleanse Your Aura“ there are a few similar ways which include taking a hot bath or shower, smudging, walking in the rain, and the so called “brushing” of the aura. Also regular meditation is suggested as well as “Positive Thinking” which is in my opinion the best one, and which I like to share with you here:
6. Positive Breathing
Deep breathing is another good way of cleansing the aura. Follow these steps for your session.
- Choose a nice quiet place where you wont be disturbed.
- Seat yourself comfortably.
- Take deep breaths in through the nose and out through the mouth.
- After a couple of minutes of deep breathing, imagine that you have a ball of pure white light above your head. Imagine this light becomes brighter, and you may even start to see gold within the light.
- Imagine this light growing larger and brighter and then bring it down slowly towards your head, allowing it to penetrate the aura and feeling the brightness and lightness of this beautiful light as it works its way down your body. You may feel a little light headed as the light moves through your body. This is normal and it will pass.
- Envision the light as it continues to move down your body and out through the soles of your feet. Imagine then that you have roots beneath your feet and the negative energy is flowing down through these roots deep into the earth. The energy that has been drawn away will then be neutralised in mother earth.
- Now imagine the roots turn bright white, they may even sparkle with flecks of silver and gold. This is the pure clean energy you now imagine as it moves back up through the roots, up through the soles of your feet and into every part of your body, radiating outwards so that your whole aura is filled with this pure white light. When the light reaches the top of your head, allow it to move upwards into the aura above your head.
- Take a few more deep breaths and allow yourself to focus on the sounds all around you and the place you are sitting so that you are grounded once more back into the material world.
You should now feel totally revitalised. This exercise is like a vacuum cleaner sucking up all the dirt as it moves over the carpet. All the negativity in your energy field is sucked up as the light moves over your aura.

I think I am going to go now and emplow these techniques and try to cleanse myself. Then my next step will be to open my Chakras and try to “learn what was not taught to me. The likes of which I did not grow up immersed in. The old ways of knowing.” Because I have the gift of intuition I am told and there are some things that cannot be gained without help and a tutour. . .
