Clear your energy and make room for change

With only a couple of months left of 2009, now is the perfect time to clear your energy, as well as your physical, mental and emotional space, to invite change and new beginnings for 2010.

Throughout my psychic readings this year, it’s become apparent that 2009 has been a trying time for most. In some way or another, people have been hitting brick walls, experiencing setbacks and generally finding there is a tiny invisible set of reigns holding them back, willing them to wait.

The good news is, this feeling of resistance is beginning to lift and life should be more free-flowing in the New Year.  At an individual level, you can take advantage of this shift by following these simple steps to help remove negative energies which may have accumulated throughout the year.

These exercises will leave you feeling lighter, brighter and more open to receiving the new.

1.    Realise and release  

An effective way to realise the negative energies you’ve been carrying, or to recognise where your energy is blocked, is to write it out. Set aside some quiet time when you won’t be interrupted and purge your feelings and emotions on to paper. Style, spelling and grammar are not important. Simply allow old ideas, emotions and attachments which are no longer working for you rise to the surface and be released to the paper. When you’ve finished, don’t read back what you’ve written as you’ll only take it all back on board. Burn it. Tear it to shreds. Bury it in the backyard.

If writing is not for you, venting to a voice recorder or a stuffed toy may also work as the principle is the same. It’s a good idea to practice this exercise a couple of times to ensure you release the deeper, harder-to-get-to stored emotions.

2.    Clear the clutter

Once you’ve cleansed your energy, it’s important to also refresh the energy of the space around you. Empty out your wardrobe, cosmetics cases, the kitchen cupboards, the filing cabinet and anywhere else in your home or office which hasn’t been reviewed in the last six to twelve months. Ensure the doors and windows are open as you do this to allow old energy to flow out. Physically clearing your space will shift the energy stored in those outdated items and sends a powerful message that you are ready and willing to accept the new.

3.    Change the vibrational frequency

Energy can become stagnant in a room, making it feel stale and stodgy. Sound is a great way to alter the energetic vibrations. Simple sounds, like clapping or using Tibetan drums, can work well to break stagnant energy to get it flowing through your work or living space. You might also like to lighten the energy of your environment by listening to a refreshing and restoring piece of music, or use wind chimes, which will also help heighten your own energy’s vibration.  Lighting incense or placing crystals throughout your space can also have a balancing and restorative effect. Remember to keep windows and doors open while you do this.

Practice these simple steps whenever you feel stuck or blocked in your life. From this renewed and revitalised energetic viewpoint, it will be easier to manifest what you want and live your life with greater clarity.
