To continue with our series on Space Clearing, this week we will discuss Connecting with the Spirit of Air as a Healing Tool.How often do we stop to acknowledge the quality of the air around us? Imagine (or remember) what it feels like to step into a space that has been closed up for a while. The air feels not only still but stagnant. It may smell musty and feel either cold and damp or warm and sticky on your skin. Now, think of your favorite space, either in your home or somewhere else. What is the quality of the air in that space?

Take a deep breath and recall what it feels like to be in your favorite space from your past.How did that space make you feel? What did it look and smell like? Once you have a clear picture of what that space was like, recall the emotion that is most prevalent when you think of that favorite space. Is it Joy? Love? Contentment? Peace? Or, something else?

Now, think of your home. When you walk through the door into your home, what is the first feeling that comes forth? Is it Joy? Love? Or, is it more like Frustration? Sadness? Overwhelm? If the primary feeling in your home is not one that you desire, one way that you can shift it is with a space clearing. Continue reading “Space Clearing 101: What’s Important in Clearing a Space?”
