The 5th Step: Clearing Techniques

Before we go deeper into the knowledge of our subtle system here are some great clearing techniques that allow us to get rid of stuck and negative energy and recharge our subtle systems. All these treatments can be done indoors and outdoors.

FOOTSOAK
a treatment to dissolve stress, angry feelings, tension, edginess and too much thinking

The most recommended clearing technique is to take a foot-soak (around 10-15 minutes) every day after coming home from work or before going to bed.

Here is a short video clip how to do it at home. If you are near the sea or a lake or a river, you ca have your foot-soak there.

Other techniques including the water element:

Walking or standing barefoot in the morning or evening dew
Standing barefoot on Mother Earth, pouring water over your feet

ICE-PACK
an emergency treatment to immediately calm down any stress feelings; great after a special stressful working day

CANDLE TREATMENT
great to balance the emotional side and get rid of sadness, lethargy, depressive feelings etc

Take one candle and move it up and down the left side of your body. Do this for around 10 minutes. The flames help to pull out all negative energies from the emotional side. Please do not hold it too close to your clothes or any other inflammable objects.

Another simple technique is to sit outside and let the sun light chase away all sad or depressive feelings. Please choose times of the day where the sun is not too hot.

MOTHER EARTH

It is an extremely simple technique: sit on the ground and put both hands flat on the ground. Let the earth absorb all tensions or negative energies.

As long as the weather allows, try some of these techniques outdoors. Let Mother Earth give you a great treat and charge you with lots of fresh energy.
