How To Uplift Your Home (and Yourself) with a Space Clearing Meditation

The Light Work – Space Clearing Meditation

  1. Take three deep breaths, and with each exhalation, relax your shoulders.

  2. Return to breathing normally.

  3. Visualize the space you want to clear.

  4. Imagine that the entire space is filled with a bright golden light as if there is a million-watt golden bulb, or Divine Being, in the center.

  5. See the light reaching every corner and crevice.

  6. Envision yourself now standing outside your space, seeing that beautiful, bright light coming out all the windows and doors.

  7. Imagine that the intensity and brightness is growing.

  8. Ask that only what is for the highest and most loving good for the occupants of the space be allowed to stay and all that is not be removed and sent to the light for healing.

Where and When to Use the Space Clearing Meditation

I suggest clients use the Light Work - Space Clearing Meditation when there is discord in the house, yet remind them that to clear someone else’s space is unethical. This is a highly effective technique for clearing common areas if there is fighting going on in the home, you have a home office, or the house feels stuffy even after you open windows. You can use other colors if you wish, though green, white, and gold work the best.

If you have just bought a house, or piece of furniture, you might want to do this Space Clearing Meditation. Often antiques will hold the energy of the past owners. You may not know who they were, but it is often as if you bring the previous owner home with you. A quick Space Clearing will wipe out the old energy, although if the antique had special significance for the past owner, it might take a few sessions!

You can also use this meditation when you have just finished a major cleanup and want to clear away the old energy. For instance, this is a great meditation for after you clean out a closet! I have found that if there is an area of clutter you cannot control, or are having trouble working on, instead of cursing it every time you walk by, bless it and permeate it with golden light. Always ask that any cleansing and clearing be for the highest and most loving good for all concerned.

Ethics Reminder: Remember that Light Work can be invasive when used to clean out someone else’s space. It would be as if you came in and literally cleaned it without letting them know. It is better, and more ethical, to teach the other occupants how to do the cleansing or at least ask permission first. If that is not possible, ask your guides to only cleanse what is for the highest and most loving good for the occupants, not what you think they need to have cleaned.

Example: Gigi and Kenny are getting ready to sell their house. It has been a happy home but it is time to downsize and they have been offered the perfect opportunity in a new area to start their dream business. Both of them have come to terms with leaving and are excited about their next phase of life. They decide to have friends and family over for a “saying good-bye to the house” party. Everyone cries, sad that Gigi and Kenny are moving out of town. For a few days afterward, Gigi notices feeling sad for no reason. Both Gigi and Kenny are excited about this move and starting the new business, so why is she so sad? She realizes that it must be leftover sad energy from the party. She knows the open house is in a week, so starts doing the Space Clearing Meditation every night before she goes to bed. The day before the open house she realizes that she isn’t feeling the blues anymore. The Space Clearing exercise worked! The open house is a success and they get a good offer on their house a week later.

Using Light Work Has Tangible Effects

How To Uplift Your Home (and Yourself) with a Light Energy ClearingUsing Light Work has tangible effects. You may feel like you are pretending, yet just as sounds have vibrations, so do colors. Introducing a color of a higher vibration will shift the energy in a space or a person. This is especially true when the color is combined with intention.

The effect of colors on energy also explains why using golden light in the Light Work - Space Clearing Meditation can be so effective. Golden light is filled with the vibration of the Golden Chakra, whose energy is unconditional love. Adding Unconditional Love to any space is like saying to someone, “I am not judging you, I love you no matter what.” You are not saying that you condone or will live with whatever that person does, but rather, it’s saying that you still care about them.

I recommend the Space Clearing Meditation for people going through a divorce, because often all that angry energy stays in the home. Even if the separation has already taken place, the person who retains the house often stays angry whereas the person who has left the home is able to move on. The leftover energy in the house prolongs the anger.

How To Make Certain You're Being Ethical

The best bet to ensure that you are being as ethical as possible is to always ask that any Light Work you do be for the highest and most loving good of all those concerned as well as intending anything that is unwanted be used instead as healing energy for the situation. Don’t forget to ask the Recycling Angels to come and clean up, or intend that what is cleansed and cleared be sent to the light. Otherwise what is cleared from you and the space will build up like an overflowing garbage can.

Think of your Light Work and resulting higher vibration as scrubbing bubbles for the soul and your surroundings! You can be a conscious, positive, vibrational force as you go through your daily routine.
