Why purify your home?

A house is not a place like any other. Like a real little cocoon, it protects you from the outside hubbub. The house is the place where you dream, the place where you rest, the place where you recharge your batteries, the place where you are fully yourself... Far from being just an anonymous place, the house is an integral part of your identity. In psychology, it is even said that it reveals many secrets about you...

When you don't feel at home: For some strange reasons, it happens that you don't feel at home. Often, this discomfort is difficult to explain in words. People in this situation describe a feeling of "heaviness" in the atmosphere. Sometimes, some even claim to witness supernatural phenomena. Obviously, all of this has an impact on the quality of daily life.

 

Signs of a negative environment

Concretely, what are the signs that should alert you? Here is a simple list. It is not exhaustive, but it will give you a first idea of the quality of the atmosphere in your home...

• You have difficulty concentrating. Your mind is often elsewhere. For example, it is impossible to fully immerse yourself in a book.
•You have trouble sleeping. You have difficulty falling asleep, or you wake up several times during the night. You may also feel like you wake up in the morning already tired.
• You constantly feel like you are being watched, even when you are alone. You feel like a "presence" at your side. This presence causes worry, stress, and even anxiety.
• For no reason, you feel depressed as soon as you get home. As soon as you walk through the door, you are overwhelmed by negative emotions, such as sadness, anger or weariness.
• Your home has been through some upsetting events in the past. For example, it could be a death, a serious illness, a burglary, a fire, physical violence...

 

 

 

Purification, a way to regain serenity

Not feeling good at home is not inevitable. Solutions exist to find well-being in the place where you live! Among them, we can of course find purification. Purification is a practice that has existed for thousands of years in the 4 corners of the globe.

Many people consider that a space is necessarily impacted by energies. These energies can be explained by various phenomena. They can be geobiology, memories of places, or even spirits...

By purifying a house, we drive out bad vibrations and create a protective climate. Improvements are very quickly noticeable.

Purification can also have a "back to zero" role. It erases the elements of the past, leaving all the room for the future. For example, when you move into a new home, it is always advisable to perform a cleansing. It is a way of freeing the place of the energies of the former inhabitants to let it fully impregnate itself with yours.

In Western countries, we are still not very open to the realities of the invisible world. Yet, whether we believe it or not, purifying one's home is a simple and effective way to finally feel better at home. Let's admit it, it would be a shame not to try it!

 

 

Purification with sage: instructions for use

It is decided, you will purify your house. Good initiative! Don't worry, there's nothing complicated about it. We will even guide you step by step...

1 - How to choose your sage

To begin with, it is important to find the right ingredients. Don't choose just any sage. The sage suitable for this practice is only white sage. Also known as "sacred sage", it comes straight from California. It is recognizable, among other things, by its brown, fibrous root and its rough, pointed leaves. The latter have the particularity of being covered with a kind of down.

Not all sage is the same. Depending on where they come from, some are of lower quality than others. For an effective purification, it is recommended to opt for the most natural sage possible.

It will also be necessary to buy your sage in stick form. It is easy to find a lot of them on the web, or in various specialized stores.

2 - Prepare the sage purification ritual

Before starting the famous purification ritual, make sure to open all the windows of the house. Indeed, it is preferable that the place is well ventilated. This allows not only smoke to escape, but also bad energy!

You should also have a non-flammable receptacle. For example, you can choose abalone shells, a material known to have excellent heat resistance.

3 - The purification process

The principle is simple. It's about letting the smoke invade every room. According to legends, smell is a sense directly linked to emotions. The effectiveness of the ritual is therefore mainly due to the smell of the smoke.

First of all, the sage stick must be carefully lit with the help of a match. This step must take place above the receptacle. Let the first leaves burn for a few seconds. Then extinguish the fire by blowing gently on it.

Now you just have to go around the entire housing, spreading the smoke into every nook and cranny. When you enter a room, proceed in an anti-clockwise direction. You must also make a loop: the starting point is also the end point.

It is believed that as long as the stick is still burning, there is always energy to purify. The ideal is therefore not to extinguish the sage, but to wait for it to die out spontaneously. If you still want to extinguish the stick, do it by crushing it in sand.

Throughout the process, the psychological aspect plays a major role. It is necessary to concentrate and express a positive intention. Depending on your preferences, you can perform a prayer, repeat benevolent affirmations, or sing. Allow yourself to be fully invaded by pleasant feelings, such as joy, love, or peace. The most important thing is to be sincere and comfortable in your approach. Your words must come from the heart!

 

 

4 - Precautions to be taken

Sage, like any other plant, has certain contraindications. It is important to know them. First of all, breathing sage is not recommended for children and pregnant women. The ritual should therefore not be performed in their presence. Attention also to people with hormonal problems.

In rare cases, sage can also cause side effects. They are not serious, but unpleasant. They can, for example, be nausea, palpitations or dizziness.

Throughout the purification ritual, be extremely vigilant. Accidents happen quickly! Burnt sage leaves can easily fly away and cause a fire. It is therefore important to follow all safety rules to the letter.

5 - The other virtues of sage

Note that sage also benefits from medicinal properties. This plant has been used for centuries to cure various diseases. It is known, among other things, to soothe gastrointestinal disorders, mild depression or mouth ailments.

Using sage in your home may even have some unsuspected physical benefits...
