Self Clearing and Healing

Over the years I have practiced many self-healing and clearing techniques. I think it’s natural that as you become quieter inside, and especially as the heart begins to open, you will inevitably become more sensitive to your surroundings. At least I know that to be true for myself. So here are some techniques that I have found to be really helpful for either self-healing or for clearing energies that may not belong to you.

Basic Clearing Practice:

To begin you will want to start with the Unity Meditation. This will connect you to the heart of Mother Gaia and Father Sun. In fact, the Unity Meditation on it’s own has a very potent healing quality to it. If you are not familiar with this meditation you can find it here: Unity Meditation.

Now that you have connected to the heart of the Earth and Sun begin to send a prayer to Holy Earth Mother. Mine goes something like this, “Holy Mother, I ask your permission to open up a clearing session with you now”. In my case She has always granted me this opportunity. This communication always comes through the heart. If you are having a hard time getting clear communication you may benefit from reading the Heart Chakra Exercises section in the Meditations page. Within that write up are some pointers for receiving Divine guidance.

Now, begin to connect deep into the Earth. Visualize a thread of energy spanning out from your feet, diving deep into the Earth and connecting to Her fiery depths where the transmutation will occur. Mother Gaia has tremendous transmutative powers and we will be connecting to these during the session. Visualize a spinning vortex of energy that runs through the thread of energy connecting you deep into the Earth. Take a deep breath, and as you do, feel your whole body fill with light. As you exhale you can say a prayer that goes something like this, “I am now sending anything that is not in service to the Divine that I may be holding onto into the transmutative center of the Earth to be healed, cleared, balanced or transmuted.” As you finish the exhale feel anything that may be dense or heavy in your energy field to exit through your feet into the vortex connecting you the the Earth.

You can do as many breaths as you like, each inhale filling your body with light, as you exhale feel any density or heaviness exit through your feet and into the vortex. If there is a particularly sticky area in your energy field you can visualize a vacuum hose that connects to the vortex at your feet and in your imagination go over this area of your energy body with the vacuum hose. This usually does the trick. When you feel the clearing session has been completed you may close the session with another prayer. Something like, “Thank you Holy Mother Gaia for this opportunity to work with you in this clearing session. I now close this clearing session”.

This exercise works particularly well on energies that don’t belong to you, that you may have picked up from somewhere out in the world, though it can at times work on your own energies as well. For deeper clearing work on your own energies it will be helpful to become familiar with somatic work. For more information on somatic work click here: Somatic Practice.

Self-Healing Session:

Begin by finding a comfortable position to either sit or lie down. If you have any quartz crystals you can arrange them around yourself. Quartz crystal amplifies energy and they are inherently great healers by themselves. Once you are situated begin to feel into the heart chakra. If you are having a hard time accessing the heart chakra head on over here: Heart Chakra Exercises.

As you settle into the heart center you can visualize a blazing sun in the center of your chest. Feel love and gratitude in your heart and allow this to pull you deeper into the heart center, deeper into that blazing sun in the center of your chest. When you feel that you have settled into the heart then say a prayer that goes something like this, “Holy Father, Holy Mother, Holy Spirit, I ask that you now open up a healing session for myself. May your Divine healing energies spread up, in, through, and all around me, filling me with Divine healing light. May whatever you want to accomplish in this healing session be accomplished. Amen.”

The Divine activity of your own Self will now carry out the healing session. All you have to do is rest and relax. When you feel the energies begin to wane you know the session is coming to a close soon. As the energies come to a stop you can then say a closing prayer, “Thank you Holy Father, Holy Mother, Holy Spirit for this opportunity to work with you in this way. I ask that this healing session now come to a close. Thank you for everything that has been accomplished here in this session”. Take your time in reorienting back into the flow of your day. You may want to drink extra water or tea. Go for a little walk in nature or do a little physical activity to help ground yourself after you feel that you have fully come out of the session.
