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:

1. Hold your right hand over the salts and visualize purifying white light flowing into them.
2. Pour the salts and baking soda into your bath and swirl them clockwise.
3. 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.”
4. Close your eyes. See yourself surrounded by a glowing white light, dissolving cords, attachments, or stagnant energy.
5. 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.
