ura Cleansing TechniquesThere are many aura cleansing techniques. (If you don't already have some favorites, you'll probablydevelop them.) However, here are some suggestions. Some of them are so simple and healthy, there's justno reason not to try them!

Drink a glass of water--filtered or spring water, if possible. Make sure you drink approximately 9-12 cupsof pure water a day.

Take a warm bath in which one cup or more of salt--preferably sea salt--has been dissolved.

Spend five minutes breathing deeply into the lower third of your lungs, so that your belly rises with eachinhale and falls with each exhale. As you inhale, feel the clean air restoring and refreshing and renewingyour body and energy field. As you exhale, feel your body and field being cleared of unwanted and negativeenergy, and anything that doesn't serve you anymore. Out with the old, in with the new!

Wear a favorite color--one that makes you feel great. It may relate to a color that you need more of inyour aura, or a color that needs to be clarified. (Read more about aura color meanings here.)

Get out into nature. Sunlight is a natural energy purifier. A walk in a forest or desert is naturally calmingand cleansing to your energy field. The beach, with its salt breezes, is especially good--but standing in any

wind, or bathing in any natural body of water, has a cleansing effect.

If you can't get out of the city, find a place that allows you access to sun and fresh air, such as a park or aroof-top. Breathe nature in and let it calm and refresh you.

Make an aura cleansing spray out of spring water and a cleansing essential oil such as lime, lemon, orjuniper. In a spray bottle, mix a few drops of essential oil in a cup or so of spring water. Shake it up andspray it toward yourself from arms length (avoiding your eyes, of course!).

Smudge yourself with a sage stick. To do this, it's easiest just to purchase a smudge stick at a naturalhealth foods or "new age" store--although if you have a large sage plant, you can make your own bygathering and drying sage leaves, them bundling them together and tying them tightly with a natural-fibercord.

In a fire-safe place, light the end of it and blow out any flame so that there are just a few embers burningand creating a small amount of smoke. Wave the smudge stick around your body from head to toe, allowingthe sage smoke to purify you.

It's common for burning bits of sage to fall to the ground, so be sure you do this in a safe place.Crystals are great aura purifiers. Crystals traditionally used for this are smoky quartz, obsidian, selenite,

or black tourmaline, but any crystal that you feel drawn to will do.

You can just carry one with you or wear it around your neck, or keep one at an altar or at the head of yourbed.

If you're feeling the need for something more powerful, lie down and place the crystal on your brow,

between your eyebrows and a little above. Relax, breathing deeply and comfortably, and imagine a white,purifying light emerging from the crystal and surrounding your body in white light.

Or, sweep the crystal repeatedly through your energy field, head to toe, with the intention that it willabsorb any negative or foreign energies.

Always clean your crystals afterward by soaking them in salt water (preferably sea salt).

Light--imagined or real--is a classic aura cleanser. Lie or sit comfortably. Relax and breathe deeply andcomfortably for a few minutes, allowing your body to relax and unwind.

Imagine your body completely filled with white light. Visualize the white light purifying and restoring yourbody, and displacing any negative or foreign energy. Give yourself time to enjoy this feeling.

Expand the light beyond your body, as many times as necessary until it extends a foot or two beyondyour body--or where-ever feels intuitively right. Visualize or feel it purifying and restoring your field, anddisplacing any negative or foreign energy, pushing it out into the universe, where it will be neutralized andreabsorbed into the cosmic field. Give yourself time to enjoy this feeling.

How do you know if your efforts have worked? You'll feel better--more relaxed, peaceful, clearer-headed,hopeful.

If your own efforts don't seem to be working for you, you may want to contact an experienced energy healeror aura healing practitioner. Sometimes we all need a little help!

Personalized Aura Color Meaning Exercise

If you are pondering the meaning of a particular color ask yourself it rings true. If not, try the

following exercise. Do not read it all the way through. Read each step and do it before reading thenext.

1. If possible, get a physical sample, such as a piece of paper or a swatch of fabric, of

the color you are pondering. (If you can't get a physical sample of the color, you'llhave to imagine it vividly.)

2. Sit down with a notebook, pen, and your color in a quiet place. Breathe deeply and

evenly into your belly for a few minutes, quieting your body and your mind.

3. Imagine that you ARE your color. From this perspective, write a paragraph or a

page about yourself/the color. Allow yourself to be very imaginative, free-associative, and sensory. For example:

I, Brown, am deep, rich, and earthy. I smell wonderful. I nurture life. I warm andgrow things. I am not flashy, but I am very solid and I make an incredibly

important contribution to the world. I am rich and complex, like good chocolate or

coffee. I am quiet, deep, comforting.etc.

4. This is your personalized interpretation of your aura color meaning!
