When Was the Last Time You Cleared Your Energy?

Can you imagine going weeks or months without showering or brushing your teeth?

What would the reaction be at work if it had been months since you last washed your hair? Everywhere you walked, you’d leave a scented trail letting everyone know exactly where you’d been. And don’t even get me started on the breath.

It sounds awful, but I believe our energetic bodies aren’t all that different.

We can unknowingly carry around heavy, stagnant energy that affects how we feel, how we interact with others, and even what we seem to attract into our lives. Sometimes we can hold patterns or programs that appear to repel the very experiences, opportunities, or relationships we consciously want.

We understand the importance of washing our hair and brushing our teeth. But how often do we think about tending to our energy?

Start by checking in with yourself.

How are you feeling?

Are you rushing through your day without ever stopping long enough to notice?

What’s bothering you right now?

Is there something left unsaid?

Have your boundaries been crossed?

When we continually ignore our emotions and push them away, they don’t necessarily disappear. They wait. Eventually, something tends to bring them back to the surface, and the timing isn’t always convenient. So give yourself permission to process what you’re experiencing and find ways to clear, cleanse, and move the energy that has accumulated.

Clearing Energy Through the Four Elements

There are countless ways to do this, and different methods work for different people.

You can even experiment with your dominant astrological element.

Fire signs often benefit from movement. Walk, dance, exercise, stretch, shake it out. Give the energy somewhere to go.

Water signs may need privacy and emotional release. Meditate. Sit near water. Cry without guilt or shame. Feel what needs to be felt.

Air signs often need expression. Talk it through. Journal. Record a voice memo. If nobody is around, speak your thoughts out loud. Sometimes the energy simply needs words.

Earth signs may benefit from grounding through the physical world. Take a walk in nature. Work with a crystal. Cook something. Garden. Create order in your environment. Do something tangible that brings you back into your body and the present moment.

The method matters less than developing the habit of noticing when something feels off and doing something intentional about it.

But What If the Pattern Goes Deeper?

Sometimes we do all the “right” things and still feel stuck.

The same relationship dynamics keep appearing. The same fears return. The same self-doubt follows us into completely different circumstances. We consciously want one thing, yet somehow keep recreating another.

Within the spiritual framework I use in SRT, we look at the possibility that some of these patterns extend beyond our current circumstances. They may involve beliefs carried through family and ancestral patterns, subconscious conditioning, Soul-level experiences, or even past-life programming.

If, across multiple lifetimes, you developed a deep belief that you were unworthy, powerless, unsafe, or helpless, imagine how that belief might continue expressing itself until it is finally identified and addressed.

And now I’m going to sound a little like Robin Williams in Good Will Hunting:

“It’s not your fault.”

Seriously.

It’s not your fault.

You didn’t consciously sit down one morning and decide, “I think I’ll spend my life believing I’m not good enough.” We inherit things. We experience things. We adapt. We develop patterns. And, depending on your spiritual beliefs, we may arrive here carrying far more history than we consciously remember.

Your present life becomes a kind of cosmic soup made from all of it: your experiences, your family, your beliefs, your choices, your Soul, your relationships, your conditioning, and perhaps even the residue of experiences that began long before this lifetime.

That’s a lot of soup.

Energy Clearing Isn’t One and Done

This is also why I don’t believe one 60-minute SRT session is necessarily going to clear everything you’ve ever accumulated.

Think about it.

Would you expect one intense workout to build a lifetime of muscle?

Would you get one haircut and assume you’re set forever?

Would you brush your teeth once and proudly announce, “Well, glad that’s handled”?

Of course not.

Energy work can be similar.

It’s a practice of noticing, clearing, adjusting, and tending to yourself as life continues to happen.

Take the Epsom salt bath. Get the Reiki session. Meditate with your crystals. Practice Qigong. Diffuse the essential oils. Pray. Journal. Walk barefoot in the grass. Sit quietly and breathe.

Find what works for you and actually do it.

Because your inner state affects how you experience your life.

Want to Know Where Your Energy Is? Look Around.

One of my favorite ways to check in with myself is simply to notice patterns.

What keeps showing up?

Are you constantly encountering frustration, conflict, negativity, or other people’s anger?

Instead of immediately deciding that the world is against you, get curious. Is there something within you that feels powerless, defensive, depleted, overlooked, or unable to establish boundaries?

Conversely, maybe you notice people holding doors open for you. Strangers smile and wave. Someone unexpectedly lets you go ahead of them in line. Opportunities seem to arrive at exactly the right moment.

You might interpret those experiences as reflections of a very different internal state: openness, worthiness, joy, connection, or receptivity.

I don’t believe this means every unpleasant thing that happens to you is something you “manifested” or deserved. Life is more complicated than that. But patterns can be incredibly revealing.

Pay attention to how you feel.

Pay attention to what keeps repeating.

Pay attention to how you respond when life presses one of your buttons.

The stuff you frequently see is a reflection of your own 'frequency'.

Your energy may be communicating with you long before your conscious mind understands what’s happening.

And when you begin changing the patterns within you, your experience of life can begin changing too.

Change your energy, and you may be surprised by how much of your life begins to change with it.

If you feel like something is holding you back but you can’t quite identify what it is, SRT Soul Clearing is designed to help uncover and clear energetic patterns and programs that may be contributing to that feeling.

If you’d like some help along the way, I’m here to support you.

You can book an SRT Soul Clearing session by phone or, when available, in person.
