How to cleanse negative energy, take back control of your life

What It Means to Clean Your Energy

By Shawn Pigg

In today’s fast-moving world, we often focus on cleaning our homes, cars, and bodies. But how often do we think about cleaning something even more important — our energy? Just like dust builds up on furniture, negative energy can build up in our minds, hearts, and spirits. Cleaning your energy means removing that negativity so you can feel lighter, clearer, and more in control of your life.

What Is Your Energy?

Your energy is your inner power. It’s the invisible force that shapes how you feel, think, and act. When your energy is positive and clean, you feel motivated, peaceful, and strong. But when your energy is heavy or dirty, you may feel tired, angry, sad, or stuck.

This energy comes not only from within, but also from the people, places, and situations around you. That’s why cleaning it is so important — because life constantly exposes us to stress, fear, and conflict.

Signs Your Energy Needs Cleaning

Here are a few signs that it may be time to clean your energy:

• You feel overwhelmed or drained for no clear reason.

• You have trouble focusing or feel emotionally stuck.

• You notice increased negativity or conflict in your relationships.

• You feel disconnected from yourself or your purpose.

• Your environment feels tense or uncomfortable.

If any of these sound familiar, it’s time to reset and refresh your energy.

Simple Ways to Clean Your Energy

Cleaning your energy doesn’t have to be complicated. These simple practices can make a big difference:

1. Breathe deeply – Take slow, deep breaths. Imagine each exhale releases negativity, and each inhale brings in fresh, healing energy.

2. Spend time in nature – Nature is a powerful cleanser. Walk barefoot in the grass, sit by a tree, or listen to flowing water. Let the earth ground and refresh you.

3. Declutter your space – Your environment affects your energy. Clean up your home or workspace to remove stagnant energy and invite positivity.

4. Visualize white light – Close your eyes and picture a bright white light surrounding you, washing away anything heavy or dark.

5. Use sound or music – Play uplifting music, ring a bell, or clap your hands. Sound helps break up stuck energy.

6. Practice gratitude – Shift your mindset by focusing on what you’re thankful for. Gratitude raises your vibration and helps clear negative energy.

The Power of Clean Energy

When you clean your energy, you feel freer. Your thoughts become clearer. Your emotions settle. You attract more positive experiences because you’re radiating positivity from within. Cleaning your energy is a form of self-care that helps you stay balanced, healthy, and connected to your true self.

Final Thoughts

I encourage you to take time each day — even just a few minutes — to check in with your energy and give it the care it deserves. Just like you wouldn’t let dust pile up in your home, don’t let negative energy build up in your spirit. Cleaning your energy is a simple, powerful way to protect your peace and move forward in life with strength and clarity.
