Yes, do “smudging” with a simple bowl of salt water instead of buying sage or incense and using the smoke.
Enchant the water to be extra cleansing like so:
- Dissolve any salt you have on hand in tap water, and any old bowl - it doesn’t matter which and it doesn’t have t be dedicated to only magick.
- Bring yourself into a calm state, smile, then
- hold your hand over the bowl held with your other hand underneath.
- Declare with intention, or conviction, that this water is purified and holds good energy, notice the water is between the energy emitted naturally by your hands, and it is soaked in your personal energy. You can visualise golden-white light filling to bowl if you like.
Now it is ready for use.
To use, you can follow the steps here for clearing your room or house, and for yourself, do the same - flick droplets of the cleansing water over your head and shoulders, and also to areas that are often dark - armpits, soles of feet and between the legs, as unwanted energy can stagnate there.
It takes just a minute or two and you can do this as many times a day as you like.
An energy clearing practice like qigong is also very useful, which you can use to ground extra energy when you cannot use saltwater - in a pinch, think of your feet and any unwanted feelings or energy leaving your feet and going deep into the grounds.
