Because sometimes, a bubble bath and a little intention can shift your entire energy field.
Discover a simple yet powerful ritual bath spell to break negative contacts, plus 4 more cleansing rituals to restore your energy, release attachments, and invite light back into your life.
🌿 The Night the Energy Felt Heavy
It was one of those evenings where the air felt thick—like the room itself was carrying someone else’s mood. I had just come home from a draining conversation that left my chest tight, my thoughts tangled. Even after the person was gone, their energy wasn’t.
I drew a hot bath. The sound of water filled the silence like a steady heartbeat. On the counter sat a small bowl of pink salts, a scoop of baking soda, and the intention that tonight…I’d let go.
As I held my right hand over the mixture, I closed my eyes and pictured a stream of white light pouring down through my palm, infusing the salts with warmth. The moment I poured them into the water, the room seemed to hum. Steam rose like a veil. I stepped in.
“As this water washes over me, I break contact with all negativity.”
I whispered it once, then again. By the third time, the heaviness had begun to loosen its grip.
🛁 Spell to Break Negative Contacts
Ingredients:
- 1 hot bath
- 1 cup Epsom or Dead Sea salts
- 1 cup baking soda
Instructions:
- Hold your right hand over the salts and visualize purifying white light flowing into them.
- Pour the salts and baking soda into your bath and swirl them clockwise.
- Step into the bath and, as you pour water over your body, repeat aloud: “As this water washes over me, I break contact with all negativity.”
- Close your eyes. See yourself surrounded by a glowing white light, dissolving cords, attachments, or stagnant energy.
- When you’re done, drain the water and imagine everything you released swirling away down the drain.
🌿 Why this works: Ritual bathing is one of the oldest spiritual practices—used in Babylon, Ancient Greece, and Indigenous cultures—to symbolically cleanse the spirit and body. Salt neutralizes energy, while water carries it away.
🪄 4 More Cleansing Spells to Restore Your Energy
1. 🕯️ The Black Candle Burn
- Light a black candle (symbol of banishing) and place it on a fireproof plate.
- Write the name or situation you want to release on a small piece of paper.
- Fold it away from you three times, place it under the candle, and let the wax drip over it as you say: “What was tied is now released. What was heavy is now light.”
- Let the candle burn safely down. Dispose of the paper outside or bury it.
📝 Why it works: Black candles are traditionally used to absorb and neutralize negativity, making this spell a favorite for energy workers.
2. 🌬️ The Cord Cutting Visualization
- Sit quietly. Picture a cord of energy connecting you to the person or situation.
- Visualize holding a golden pair of scissors.
- With love and clarity, cut the cord, watching both ends retract and heal with light.
- Say: “I release you with love. I reclaim my energy now.”
✨ Why it works: This method is rooted in modern energy healing but mirrors ancient symbolic “severing” rituals used across cultures to break unhealthy attachments.
3. 🍃 The Herbal Sweep
- Bundle cleansing herbs like rosemary, lavender, sage, or cedar with a natural string.
- Sweep the bundle gently over your body from head to toe while repeating: “With this sweep, I clear and release what does not serve me.”
- Hang the herbs to dry outside afterward to release the absorbed energy.
🌿 Why it works: Herbal cleansing is an ancient European, Indigenous, and Mediterranean practice believed to bind and absorb negative influences.
4. 🧂 The Doorway Salt Line
- Sprinkle a thin line of salt across doorways and windowsills while saying: “Only peace may enter here. Only love may remain.”
- Leave overnight, then sweep up and discard outside.
🧂 Why it works: Salt has been used in folk magic, Shinto, and Mediterranean traditions to create protective barriers against negative energies and spirits.
