Purifying and cleansing your space is as important as a physical cleaning. Energy can stagnate like dust and hugely affect our moods, our energy, our mental. Here are 5 ways, including tools and rituals, to easily and quickly purify your space. 

1. Palo Santo

Palo Santo, "Holy wood" in Spanish, has been used by indigenous people of South American countries for centuries. Different forms of Palo Santo exists; wood, resin and essential oil.

Many people find the aroma of palo santo relaxing, so it’s commonly used to ease stress. It’s thought to have a purifying, cleansing effect on the body and mind.

Palo santo is a traditional remedy for pain, inflammation, and stress. It’s also used to clear out negative energy. You can burn palo santo as incense or apply the oil on your skin.

Always buy from a reputable retailer to make sure your palo santo is responsibly sourced.

Ritual with a Palo Santo wood stick: 

• Use one of the Holistic ceramics dish infused with the energies you need
• Before lighting the wood stick, centre yourself and set your intention: What do you want to cleanse, to purify? What new energies do you want to welcome in your place? 
• Use a candle, matches or a lighter to light your Palo Santo
• Hold the stick downward at a 45-degree angle
• Let the stick burn for 30 seconds
• Blow out the flame and place your stick in your Holistic ceramics dish to let it burn.

2. Salt

Did you know salt cleanse and protect your space? Just as smudging a sage stick or like crystals! 

Salt has been used by mystics, witches, and spiritual beings for centuries to cleanse energy, rid a space of bad vibes, and banish hexes.

Ritual with salt: 

• Use the Holistic ceramics cleansing bowl
• Centre yourself and set your intention, ask that this salt to purify and protects your space from negative energies
• Then go around your house and spread small amounts in each corner of the room. Because salt can be corrosive, you can use small trinket dishes or a paper to put the salt in, instead of directly put the salt on your floor.

Remember, just like crystals, once salt soaks up enough negativity, it’ll become blocked. Thus, it’s a good idea to throw out the old salt and replace it with fresh salt, once you feel that the salt isn’t quite cleaning the energy as well as it once was.

Any salt can be used, however, Himalayan salt is the best for any cleansing ritual as it's the purest on earth.
