5. Cleansing

1. Grounding - Heart Connection

In order to maintain a clear and healthy energy body we need to stay centred and grounded. Use this simple practice to return to centre and connect to your heart. When we lead with the heart, what we need energetically is very clear and therefore our needs are more easily met. Doing this practice daily will help build a strong energetic foundation for heart-centred consciousness.

• Stand comfortably with feet rooted on the ground, arms relaxed by your side.
• Connect to your heart by breathing into the centre of your chest. Envision this area glowing with beautiful light.
• As you exhale, sense the energy of your heart flowing down through your body, anchoring like roots and extending through the floor, the dirt, the rocks, the roots, the groundwater, etc, all the way until it reaches the centre of the earth.
• Once you’ve reached the heart of the earth connect it to your heart by drawing the energy up on an inhale, back through all the layers of the earth until it lands in your heart.
• Continue cycling the energy between your heart and the earth until you feel calm, centred and grounded. 

2. Accountability - Fill Your Cup

There’s an old saying that goes something like “ you are responsible for 100% of your 50% in a relationship.” What this is alluding to is the personal responsibility each individual has in a relationship. This includes romance, friendship, with plants, the unseen world, and even strangers. The goal here is to take care of ourselves as we need so we fill our own cup so much that our divinity and best selves overflow. When we are centred and nourished, we have the ability to give and share from an authentic place that isn’t depleting.

What nourishes your body? Your mind? Your spirit? Make a list of these things and prioritize one of them for the next moon cycle.

3. Get Clear - Know Your Boundaries

How can we maintain strong boundaries if we don't know what they are? Have you taken the time to think or write about what feels like an enthusiastic yes and what feels like a no? 

Getting clear on your boundaries is a process, an evolution; you are an organism that ebbs and flows and your boundaries will too. Spending time alone and cultivating your personal practice is an excellent tool. This allows you to regularly maintain and become aware of your own energetic field;  and uses your grounded heart perception as a guiding force. Knowing what is nourishing to you and what is depleting is a good sign of what your boundaries are. The more you get to know yourself, the clearer your boundaries become and the easier they are to maintain.

4. Protection Mist - Calling Upon Your Plant Allies

Despite our best efforts to maintain strong boundaries, there are moments in life when we need external support. That is why we created the Protection Mist. If you are a very sensitive person, you likely have experienced a sense of overwhelm from picking up on other energies around you. We created this spray especially to help sensitive people maintain clear energetic boundaries so you can feel clear, open and safe in your vessel. 

Some of our greatest allies in the realm of protection are Yarrow & Devil’s Club. We have formulated them here with a few other potent friends to keep you feeling safe enough to fully thrive.
