How To Clean Your Energy | Life Changing Energy

by Vickie Gould

To clean your energy, start by opening a window, sprinkling salt in the corners of your space, clapping or ringing a 528Hz bowl to break up stuck energy, and brushing your aura with a selenite wand. Breathe deeply and set the intention to release what’s no longer yours.

At Life Changing Energy, we teach everyday people how to do this safely and effectively. Our heart-led, bite-sized courses help you cleanse with confidence.

No guessing. No gatekeeping.

How to Clean Energy: 12 Effective Methods

Ready to feel lighter, clearer, and more aligned? 

Here are 12 tried-and-true ways to cleanse your energy field, your space, and your tools, with no complicated rituals required.

These methods range from ancient practices to modern, intuitive techniques. You can mix and match based on your vibe, environment, and what you have on hand.

1. Physical Cleaning First

Before you reach for your crystals or oils, clean the visible clutter. Sweep the floors. Open the windows. Wipe down surfaces.

Energy stagnates where dust and disorder collect. Physical cleaning is the gateway to energetic clarity.

2. Salt Cleansing

Salt is a spiritual vacuum for heavy vibes. Sprinkle it in the corners of your rooms, add it to your bath, or place a small dish of salt near your front door.

3. Sound Healing

Sound cuts through stagnant energy like a tuning fork to fog. Use a 528Hz tuning fork, crystal singing bowl, bell, or even clapping your hands. Let the vibration break up heaviness and call in clarity.

4. Smoke Cleansing (with Cultural Respect)

Burn rosemary, cedar, or eucalyptus for a powerful, non-appropriative smoke cleanse. Fan the smoke over your body or throughout your space with intention.

Note: “Smudging” is a sacred Indigenous practice. If that is not your lineage, use the term “smoke cleansing” and approach with reverence.

5. Water Rituals

Water is a natural conductor of energy. Try a shower visualization where you imagine golden light washing over you. You can also create moon water (leave water in moonlight overnight) to rinse your face or hands before ritual work.

6. Crystal Tools

Some crystals clear energy, others amplify it. Here are your go-to cleansing stones:

  • Selenite: Cleanses tools, chakras, and other crystals.
  • Clear Quartz: Resets your energy field and intentions.
  • Black Tourmaline: Grounds and shields.

7. Sunlight or Moonlight

The sun energizes. The moon resets. Place your tools, or yourself, under direct sun or full moonlight to charge and clear. Sunlight is perfect for a midday refresh, while moonlight offers a deep emotional reset.

8. Florida Water & Oils

Florida Water, often used in spiritual practices for cleansing and protection, is a favorite in our community (you’ll even find it woven into teachings in our Oracle Course). It’s perfect for refreshing your aura, clearing tools, or wiping down sacred spaces.

Pair it with essential oils like lemongrass, frankincense, or lavender, each known for their purifying and soothing properties. Together, they support both energetic release and nervous system calm.

9. Visualization & Breathwork

Imagine brushing your aura with golden light or inhaling clarity and exhaling negativity. Pairing your breath with intention shifts your energetic state with no tools required.

10. Candles with Intention

White candles purify. Black candles absorb negativity. Dress your candle with oil, speak your intention, and let the flame transmute what no longer serves you.

11. Uncrossing Techniques

Feeling stuck? Try an uncrossing bath with herbs like rue or hyssop. Sweep your floors with coffee grounds and salt. Recite Psalm 23 or 91 as a spiritual reset. It’s a blend of folk magic and sacred scripture that works energetically and emotionally.

12. Digital Detoxing

Unplug to uncloud. EMFs and constant scrolling can weigh down your field. Try a 24-hour tech break, or cleanse your phone with sound or smoke before healing work.

You do not need to do all 12 every day. Pick the one (or two) that resonate most and let them become sacred habits in your energetic hygiene toolkit.

Frequent worries

You’re not the only one wondering how all of this actually works. 

Here are some of the most frequent worries about energetic cleansing, and the grounded, spiritually aligned answers to help you feel confident and empowered in your practice.

How do I remove evil energy from the body?

 

 

While “evil” is a strong word, heavy and hostile energy can absolutely attach itself to your field. Clear it using:

  • Salt baths to neutralize frequency.
  • 528Hz sound tools to recalibrate.
  • Candle rituals where you direct unwanted energy into the flame and let it transmute.

How do I cleanse myself spiritually?

Start with aura brushing. You can use your hands, a feather, or a selenite wand to sweep energy down and away from your body. Combine it with a spiritual bath using Epsom salt and herbs like lavender or rosemary. Deep, slow breathwork helps release energetic tension stored in the body and reset your field.

How do I check for negative energy in my body?

Use a pendulum or a weighted tuning fork to scan your chakras or energetic field. If the movement is erratic, weak, or stops entirely at certain points, that may indicate a blockage. You can also tune into your intuition. Heaviness, tingling, or even a sense of “ick” can signal stuck energy.

Does opening windows really remove negative energy?

Absolutely. Fresh air invites in life force and helps push out old vibrations, especially when paired with incense, smoke cleansing, or intentional breath. It’s one of the simplest, most powerful things you can do to shift energy quickly.

These are not cute rituals; they work. When done with presence and intention, they help you feel better, faster, and reconnect with your true, grounded self.

Why It’s Easier (and Safer) with Us

You could piece things together from YouTube videos, free PDFs, and social media reels. If you’re here, you already know your energy deserves better than guesswork.

Here’s what we often hear from people who tried to DIY their way through energetic cleansing:

  • “I didn’t know my singing bowls were holding old energy.”
  • “I thought I was doing it right, but my space still felt weird.”
  • “I was afraid I was doing it wrong or culturally appropriating something.”

And honestly, they are not alone. The spiritual world is rich and powerful, but it can be confusing, overwhelming, and even risky when done without proper knowledge.

That’s why I created this space.

We teach you how to:

  • Clean energy safely and ethically, so you’re not unintentionally creating spiritual static or disrespecting sacred traditions.
  • Use tools with confidence, no more second-guessing whether your tuning fork is helping or hurting.
  • Work through trauma with care, because energy healing without emotional safety can be damaging.
  • Get certified. Even if you’re starting out, you can earn accredited certifications that support your growth (and continuing education!).

You’ll also get:

  • Bite-sized lessons that do not require 3 hours of spare time (yes, really!).
  • A supportive community of like-minded healers, learners, and dreamers.
  • Lifetime access to your courses (because healing is not linear).
  • Energetically cleared tools. Yes, we prep your bowls and forks before they even ship out.

Whether you’re cleansing your own aura or holding space for others, you do not have to do it alone or figure it all out from scratch. We’re here to walk with you, every step of the way.

You’re Not “Too Woo” to Start

Whether you’re healing from heartbreak, recovering from burnout, feeling stuck in your life path, or simply curious about this whole “energy thing,” you’re in the right place.

Your energy matters. And you deserve to feel whole, clear, and aligned.

Cleaning your energy is about making space for the good. It’s about reconnecting with the version of you that feels grounded, powerful, and intuitive.

And the truth is: it’s not complicated. But doing it correctly and consciously? That changes everything.

If you're feeling the pull to go deeper, trust it.
