✨Room Cleansing Spray ✨

This is perfect for those who want to cleanse the area before spellwork but can’t/don’t want to burn sage or palo santo! It’s also a great little pick me up and it’s very useful for grounding and centering if you use himalayan salt.

You Will Need:

- a spray bottle

- himalayan salt (protection, cleansing, grounding & centering) or sea salt (protection, cleansing, purification)

- preferably moon water but tap water is ok

-optional:dried rose petals (protection)

- lavender essential oil (purification)

- clary sage essential oil (protection, clarity, cleansing)

- tea tree essential oil (protection, purification and aura cleansing)

-definitelynotoptional: witch hazel (removing negativity, hexes and general dis-ease) - also makes the essential oils mix with the water. do not leave it out!!

sidenote - if you want to use this spray on you or your clothes, dilute the essential oils first to make sure you don’t develop a sensitivity!

How To Make:

1. mix a teaspoon or so of whichever salt you chose with your water and wait for it to dissolve before pouring it into a spray bottle.

2. add witch hazel in a 2 parts water 1 part witch hazel ratio

3. add a few drops of lavender essential oil, clary sage oil and tea tree oil depending on the strength of the scent you like

4. add a few dried rose petals if you want to!

5. put the lid on the bottle and give it a good shake before each use!

I personally use this for meditation, grounding & centering, before spellwork and to help me get to sleep.

Remember to always be safe with your essential oils!


EDIT:be careful if you have cats because lavender is toxic to them! make sure not to spray too much or omit lavender oil from the ingredients if you want to be totally safe.

thanks for the reminder @rainbow-lava

What is Grounding?

The term grounding, sometimes called Earthing, means to recalibrate your energy. Essentially, the purpose of grounding is to shake off “excess” energy and ground yourself back in reality. It is about reconnecting to your space. Essentially, grounding helps us to connect with the Earth and makes us have a balanced and a established emotional state.

What is Centering?

The term centering means to anchor both spirit and mind, logic and emotion, physical reality and the ethereal world. Its about reconnecting to yourself so you can better put things in perspective. Being centered describes being in balance between these two seemingly disparate parts of ourselves. I helps us focus on the present, but not on a specific subject like meditation. It is simply being in the present.
