Good Vibes Only
You don't have to be psychic to feel when something's “off” about a situation. Creepy people have a “vibe” that repels you. Have you ever walked through an antique store? You might have noticed that you feel drawn to, or repelled by certain items. Maybe you've watched Oddities and gotten the heebie geebies from a creepy porcelain doll?! We are energetic beings. We all carry a vibration, and depending on our feeling state, we give off a certain “vibe”.
Just as you can pick up on vibrations from people and things you see, you can also pick up vibrations from things unseen. There's so much happening around us that isn't readily perceived. These energies can interfere with your best efforts at success, happiness, and serving your life's purpose. The unseen world can influence us more than we realize. Interfering energies can significantly impact your physical and emotional health. The good news is there are things that you can do to free yourself from such interference. It just takes awareness and a firm expression of your will to break free!
My Experience in Energy Clearing
I began working with energy healers regularly in my own healing journey in 2015. I started to notice what it felt like to have foreign energies removed from my energy field. After visiting my family, my Shaman told me that I had something in my field that “belonged” to my family. She pulled it off and I felt a great release. It was amazing. She frequently told me that I had energy from my therapy clients on me. I could feel the energy move as if she were pulling me out of quicksand. Removing the influence other people's energies were having on my vibrations was a huge relief. I felt more clear and centered. This had an incredible effect on my mental health. For probably 2 years I went to see her twice a month. I became more sensitive to these subtle energies around me, noticing when I felt something shift in my own energy body. I can think of several instances where I realized I wasn't myself.
One day while walking my dogs, I noticed my thoughts were surprisingly self-critical, hateful even. I mean, I have my moments, but this was over the top! I had done counseling that day with a woman who was emotionally abused by her husband. I was puzzled but soon realized that I was thinking the same way my client's husband probably thinks about himself! In listening and supporting her to cope with this difficult situation, I had somehow connected with his energy field and something got stuck on me. I texted my friend Jim and once he did an energy cleansing, I felt like myself again.
Soon thereafter, when I noticed myself feeling “off”, I started asking, “Is this mine? Or is this coming from someone else?” Often I felt helpless against these intrusions. I would get cleared by going to see my Shaman or asking my friend to clear me. I also discovered a YouTube channel with excellent clearing meditations that have been very helpful. If you like working with Archangels this channel would be a good fit for you! It's amazing how much change an energy clearing practice makes for me. I feel lighter. My thinking becomes more clear and it's easier to be in the moment. When I began to tune in more to my body, I realized what my baseline vibration feels like. Now I am able to recognize unseen interference by the energy shifts I feel in my body. The process of awareness for me developed over a few years. It was frustrating to have to ask someone else to do the energy work for me. It wasn't until I began working with a skilled Body Code practitioner that I learned how to identify and clear these for myself. Through the use of the Body Code and Emotion code, I've developed more refined tools to identify these intrusive energies in myself and others.
What are Unseen Influences?
I am talking about psychic cords, entities, and offensive energies that could be considered negative energy from another person. Let's start with the obvious one.
Offensive Energies
Let's start with the obvious one. Just like it sounds, offensive energies come from a person with negative thoughts they have towards or about you. These usually have anger or judgment as a foundation. You've probably witnessed people exchanging these energies. Road rage, office gossip, and jealous competition can rise from everyday controversy. The other person might be ruminating about the situation and as they do, they unknowingly send you toxic energy. Think of it as an energetic harpoon that gets launched based on what's going through someone's head about you. If you don't clear the energy you can get yanked around pretty good and pulled off course. How often this happens can depend on strength of the connection you have with this person. This type of intrusive energy isn't necessarily intentional. People don't realize the power of their thoughts.
Entities
Entities are a smaller energy that has a will and a force with them. It's more nebulous than a ghost or disembodied spirit. In my experience entities mostly interfere with thoughts and emotions. I have, however, experienced food cravings I believe originated from entities. It's not unusual when I finish a session with a binge eater that I have thoughts of grazing or having a decadent treat that I haven't had in years. I automatically ask, “Is this mine, or my client's?” I use muscle testing to check for entities and use the power phrase to remove them. I usually feel a lifting, like a veil coming off of my head. This is such a strange concept to me even now as I write, that it's hard to believe. but I've experienced it myself. I learned about clearing entities in training to use The Body Code created by Dr. Bradley Nelson.
Psychic Cords
Psychic cords can occur naturally with the closest people in your life. I think this is part of what's behind the phenomenon of mom radar. Many moms can tell when their child is in distress, or up to no good. You've had the experience of thinking of someone and soon after, they contact you. Their thoughts of contacting you could be sending out a cord. These cords can also be established through making eye contact with someone, by thoughts, or by ruminations. Cords usually happen without any malice, but can be a drain on your energy. Cording with others can potentially interfere with your emotions, especially if you're an empath or highly sensitive person. Everyone has trapped emotions in their body. If you have an emotion that is in the same frequency as their's, that makes it easier for you to absorb their emotion. Unfortunately, this doesn't relieve them of this burdensome vibe. Holding the vibration of someone's emotions only serves to weigh you down. Psychic cords can also affect your thoughts. You may notice being more critical of yourself or others. Releasing these cords is pretty simple and, I believe, essential to maintaining your wellness. It's important for each of us to stand in our own energy.

The Difference Between Negative and Positive Energy
Positive and negative energy exist as contrasting forces that can profoundly impact our well-being and overall vitality. When it comes to energy clearing, understanding the distinction between these two is essential in maintaining a healthy and vibrant life force.
Negative energy refers to stagnant or discordant energy that can accumulate within our physical bodies and surroundings. It may result from stress, emotional turmoil, or external influences. Clearing negative energy is crucial as it can weigh us down, affect our mood, and disrupt the harmonious flow of energy within us.
On the other hand, positive energy represents a state of vitality, harmony, and well-being. It uplifts and rejuvenates us, promoting a sense of peace, joy, and overall vitality. Nurturing healthy energy is vital to maintaining a healthy energy system and enjoying a fulfilling life.
To clear negative energy and invite positive energy into our lives, energy work and personal clearing practices can be immensely beneficial. Engaging in energetic cleansing techniques, such as burning incense, using sacred herbs, or employing the services of a vigorous energy cleanser, can help clear inappropriate energy and create a more harmonious environment.
Energy clearing involves addressing not only the energetic aspects but also the physical body. Through holistic practices, such as energy cleansing rituals, meditation, or bodywork, we can release stagnant or inappropriate energy, allowing it to flow freely throughout our entire body.
Maintaining healthy energy requires ongoing attention and care. Regular energy cleansing rituals and practices can help us cleanse and balance our energy system, ensuring that negative energy is swiftly cleared, while positive, healthy energy is nurtured and amplified.
Incorporating energy clearing into our lives empowers us to create an environment that supports our overall well-being. By understanding the difference between positive and negative energy, we can consciously cultivate and maintain a vibrant and harmonious energetic state, enhancing our daily experiences and promoting a life of vitality and fulfillment.
Methods of Clearing Energy
The Meridian Sweep
A meridian sweep is a technique used in energy medicine to release and clear negative energy from the body's energy meridian system. The meridian system is a network of channels through which life force energy, also known as chi or prana, flows.
To disconnect from negative energy using a meridian sweep, you can follow these steps:
1. Find a quiet and comfortable space where you can relax and focus without distractions.
2. Begin by taking a few deep breaths to center yourself and relax your mind and body.
3. Rub your hands together to generate some heat. This turns on and powers up your chakras.
4. Set your intention for what you are trying to do. Cutting the psychic cords or clearing the negative energy.
5. Call on your spirit guides to assist you.
6. Use your hands to run down your body 3 times. Pay special attention to areas where you may be experiencing discomfort, tension, or negativity. As you sweep through these areas, imagine the negative energy being released and dissolved.
7. Continue the sweeping motion down through your neck, chest, abdomen, hips, legs, and feet, allowing the energy to flow out through the soles of your feet and into the earth.
8. Once you have reached the bottom of your feet, imagine roots extending from the soles of your feet deep into the earth, grounding and anchoring you.
9. Visualize the energy that may be attached to you coming off. Take a few moments to breathe deeply and allow yourself to feel lighter, more balanced, and free from negative energy.
Remember that the meridian sweep is a visualization technique, and its effectiveness may vary from person to person. It is essential to approach this practice with an open mind, a positive intention, and a willingness to let go of negative energy.
Additionally, it can be beneficial to complement the meridian sweep with other practices such as meditation, energy healing, or self-care activities that promote positivity and well-being.
