WHY IS CLEANSING NEGATIVE ENERGY SO IMPORTANT – My Story?
Stress, Arguments, Discordant Energies, Planes, Trains and Automobiles…
Whilst going through a separation with two young children, I was experiencing a great deal of stress and at the same time trying to keep up a brave front for my sons. It wasn’t easy. The process of separation, plus the fear, uncertainty, and arguments in the home was creating a lot of heavy and dense negative energy that was palatable and it was manifesting as stress and anxiety in my personal experience.
I was resistant to taking medication of any kind to help me deal with the stress and anxiety I was going through so I went to see a Reiki Master on the recommendation of two dear friends to take lessons on self-healing. This was a pivotal shift in my life that has taken me on an amazing spiritual adventure, one that still continues to this day…
During this time, I believe I had an awakening of sorts. Hard to put into words what that is, except that I became very sensitive to all kinds of energy around me, from beautiful, blissful, creamy, rich, delightful energy to dense and heavy emotionally charged negative energy. I had many a sleepless night wondering what was going on and what to do. And, so I went searching to get educated on what I was experiencing and finally found the teachers I was looking for, teachers who could not only put into perspective and validate my experiences but also educate me on how to manage them. I had a great deal to learn.
Apart from topics of prayer, meditation, body-mind therapy, chakra therapy, dream therapy, past-life therapy, TEP therapy, psychic abilities, chi-kung, Shamanism, and energy management etc., there were the basics of learning about different methodologies and techniques on Cleansing negative energy and Protecting oneself from negative energy! This concept really opened my eyes and I felt so relieved to have gained some understanding of what was going on in my life, and the realization that I could do something about it brought a lot of peace of mind! Around this time I also became more and more aware of the concept of living a more conscious and intentional life, this knowledge slowly began to shift my belief system and all the therapy modalities I attended over the years certainly attributed to gaining a better understanding of the patterns (negative energy) I had been repeating in my life!
Learning to Transform Negative Energy through Cleansing & Protection
What I learned was that we accumulate dense, negative energy daily from places such as public transport, restaurants, bars, cinemas, fitness clubs, yoga studios, schools, and hospitals, to name just a few.
We can also accumulate heavy energy from negative thoughts, negative interactions, and situations such as divorce, financial strain, peer pressure, bullying and difficult personal relationships… And just for the fun of it, I will mention dense, negative energy from unseen entities which surround us and who resonate with our life circumstances! (Ever felt a strong emotion, but cannot fathom why it feels so intense? It could be that the unseen entity has something to do with it – reminds me of the old adage about misery loves company!). More on this another day.
Anyway, so the walls, ceilings, objects, furniture, and carpets etc. all absorb everything that is happening in its surroundings. The accumulation of these negative energies can affect people mentally, emotionally and even physically. It’s no wonder I was having many a sleepless night trying to understand what was happening. Having gained all this wonderful knowledge, I started to apply the different techniques I had learned in my home and I felt a tremendous energetic shift, not only in the home but also within myself.
Almost a decade later I was going through another change in my life, (life happens – could also have been the empty nest syndrome). Feeling uncertain and not clear on what to do in my life next, I took advantage of this time of the unknown and did a lot of meditation! One day I found myself walking through the forest in North Vancouver, and had the most brilliant epiphany – I should make my own cleansing and protection tools instead of buying from my supplies from stores. This lead to having a wonderful connection with the Cedar trees and I guess the idea just got solidified right there and then.
I took out all my old notes on Cleansing and Protection and started to put into practice all the teachings I had received in the past 12 years or more including Shamanism, Kabbalah, Dzogchen and Tantra and created my first cleansing spray which is a combination of a unique blend of essential oils known for thousands of years for their cleansing, protecting and purifying properties to help eliminate and transform negative energy.
Having also learned much about the power of intention, I charged the blend with healing rituals and mantras and finally, infused it with a heartfelt intention to cleanse, purify and transform any negative energy that does not serve the highest good for the intended person using the sprays.
I have learned many different techniques which can clear, absorb, transform and protect against negative energy including Water cleansing and purification; Plant cleansing; Smoke cleansing with Sage, Cedar, Palo Santo and Copal; Fire cleansing; Metal cleansing; Sound and of all things Egg Cleansing (which is one of my personal favorites) – but these I will discuss another day!
WisdomTrees Cleansing Spray is water and plant-based. I carefully selected those essential oils that I had an affinity for and which were the most powerful to eliminate and protect from negative energy in my personal experience when I was creating the blends. (Check out my post on “How To Cleanse Negative Energy With WisdomTrees Cleansing Spray” )
Initially, I created the sprays for my own personal use, and then friends started asking for some to try out, and then one day I had a vision of making them available to everyone who was experiencing stress, anxiety and any kind of negativity in their lives and decided to put them into a retail store to see what could happen. This was one person’s experience who is a yoga instructor: “Hey friends, this is a brand new line by Sindy Taylor is like no other, and I LOVE it. I have been using it to clear my studio before each class, and I protect myself with it before doing any classes or private sessions. Everyone who has experienced it has felt an energetic shift, without me telling them what it was. …check it out!” CE ~ Live Well Yoga…
That was 4 years ago and, today I have a distributor who sells all my product line throughout Canada and I also sell directly to some wonderful local retail stores. In my efforts to reach a broader audience, I have just launched my online shop (shop.wisdomtrees.com) so that I can expand to the US and beyond!
I cannot emphasize enough how important cleansing and protecting our space from negative energy is – personally, I use the cleansing spray in my home pretty much every day. As a body-mind practitioner who sees clients dealing with many different types of stress and anxiety related problems, I always cleanse my workspace before and after each session, and I will also protect myself from the heavy negative energy people sometimes bring with them. And when traveling, I certainly wouldn’t sleep in a hotel room without cleansing it first, who knows what the previous guests were going through!
Not long ago my son got into an accident in my car and he was really fearful that I would get angry with him, even though it was not his fault. I felt that the negative energy created from the impact of the cars colliding as well his own fear and anxiety about the accident was still lingering in the car, so yep you guessed it; I sprayed my car with the cleansing spray! Again, for me, there is a palatable difference before and after. This is what I encourage people to do, develop discernment on how it was before the cleansing and how it feels after!
Whatever your life circumstances may be, I really encourage you to become more aware of the energy you are surrounded by, and how it might be impacting your health and wellbeing, and more importantly, learn ways in which you can transform any negative energy that may be present and which is affecting you in a negative way!
Like I said there are many simple techniques and ways to do this and one of them is by using cleansing sprays such as the ones I have created, if it’s of interest to you, you can visit my online store at shop.wisdomtrees.com or go to my website wisdomtrees.com to learn about all the intentional living products that I have crafted with a heartfelt intention to make a positive impact in people’s lives.
For me, it just makes sense to create a beautiful flow wherever I go and I wish for you the same – and besides, the sprays really smell good!
