Keep Your Home Safe From Toxic Energy

Your house is your sacred space. It is hallowed ground. It is the place where you and your loved ones regenerate, and find renewed strength and inner peace. For this reason, the energy in your home must be kept healthy and clean.

Some people believe it is okay to temporarily allow toxic people and other sources of negative energy into their homes, and then try to meditate, pray or smudge it away with sage later on, when it becomes a problem. I do not recommend this approach.

It is not always that simple or easy to get rid of negative energy. It tends to linger, especially when it is very aggressive, or has an extremely low, dark vibration. It may require a lot of repetitive spiritual cleansing work, and your firm intention, to be properly dealt with.

I used to take in people in need, who temporarily needed a refuge or safe haven. But I learned a difficult lesson. While I had the best intentions, and my heart was in the right place, I wasn’t actually helping them. Most of them only went on to damage my property, steal my belongings, or hurt my feelings in some way. All of them somehow took advantage of me. And they always left my house, and my heart, in a mess.

These days I will donate, advise, offer a ride, or even a shoulder to cry on. But no one comes into my home anymore, especially since I started having children. My home is now sacred, holy territory. And I keep the energy pure in every possible way.

If I need to personally interact with others, I will do it at their home, or in a public place. If you feel a positive buzz after someone leaves your home, that is good thing. It means they have left their good vibes in your home. But this is seldom the case. There is just so much chaos and toxicity in the world these days, you really don’t want to take the risk of inviting it into your home, and then have to spend hours, or even days, trying to restore peace, balance and harmony.

Whenever I go into someone else’s space, I always make an effort to raise the vibration in the room, and leave behind some love and light. When I was teaching Yoga in Los Angeles, my students used to often invite me to come over for dinner, just so I could improve the energy inside their home. Remember, energy is infinite. If you leave some good vibes, you create even more for yourself. When it comes to good energy, you are never losing anything.

However, in exactly the same way, negative people leave a toxic, black ‘sludge’ behind. This kind of energy can be so noxious that in time it can make you and your family members tired, sick, aggressive, anxious or depressed.

The one place you must absolutely keep safe, sane and spiritually sanitary, is your living space, your home. Do everything you can to spiritually protect your home and family every day, in every way.
