How Clean Is Your Space?
Sometimes people are called to learning about Reiki because they want to make changes in their personal life. Sometimes they might want to help others change and heal so that is their driving force behind learning Reiki. Often what happens through the help of Reiki is that the person experiences a huge shift in energy in their life. The old stagnant, heavy, negative energy leaves while a new loving energy comes in and helps to soothe and heal.
Most people tend to overlook something simple which is how clean your space is. This includes your work space, your home environment and even your vehicle. Clutter of any kind, boxes, pictures with less than positive memories attached, old clothes, trash, old paperwork, broken appliances, unused furniture, disorganization and mess of any kind tends to pull in dark stagnant energy. This stagnant energy works in opposition with any healing work you might be doing with Reiki and limits the results from Reiki.
An easy visualization would be planting flowers in your garden. The flowers represent your Reiki work inside your home environment and the bugs and pests are the stagnant energy constantly there. You plant your beautiful flowers, water them and care for them and wait for them to grow. Instead of it being an easy situation, you notice that each day you are continually fighting off bugs, animals and other critters to keep them from destroying your beautiful flowers. It becomes a daily chore. When harvest time comes, your flowers haven’t grown the way you had hoped.
Fortunately, there is a very easy fix for this surprising Reiki block. Simply clean your space. I’m not just talking about doing a little cleaning here and there, I’m talking about getting real with yourself and letting go of anything that is not actively adding positivity to your space. This is true of your home, car, workplace, and anywhere that you spend time daily.
How to Get Real and Clean Your Space:
- Take a look around your space. Is it light, free flowing and open? Or are there things that you keep telling yourself you have to hang onto that are actually creating blocks? Do you need that 2 year old b’day card from your friend Debbie? No, you do not. Do you need the magazine from last year that has a paint color in it you might want to use someday? No! Do you need to keep clothes that you think might come back in style one day? No. You get the idea. Create 3 piles in the middle of your space. 1=items to keep. 2=Donations. 3=Trash.
- Get real with yourself. If you need a friend there with you to help don’t feel bad. Positive support from someone is always good. This cleansing experience is going to change your life and help to raise your vibration. Get rid of anything in your space that is not being used and/or actively adding positivity on a daily basis. Just let everything go.
- Once your space is clean, send Reiki to it. Sit in the middle of the space. Picture a large white ball of healing, loving, cleansing energy. Make a large Master or Power Symbol over the ball. Imagine that it grows larger and larger until it pushes all that is negative out of the space and you have nothing but love and light left. Ground yourself and give thanks. Your space is now ready to take you to higher levels than ever before!
While you can repeatedly cleanse your space with all of the clutter and stagnant stuff in it, you will find that the cleansing does not last very long this way and continues to block form. Getting real and truly clearing out your space allows for the Reiki energy to really show you how full of light and powerful it really is. With no hidden blocks or negative energy hanging out in your environment, your Reiki work can really take off and go higher than you ever thought possible. Give it a try!
