DIY: Cleanse your home

Ever got that spooky or uncomforting feeling when you enter a house? Well it may not exactly be a stray ghost trying to freak you out. But there is certainly a possibility that the house is filled with negative energy. Here are five simple things that you can do to keep your home safe from all the worldly negativity and retain it as a haven of peace and love.

SMELL THE FLOWERS

Try and make it a habit to gift beautiful, fresh flowers to your home every day. Your home deserves some pampering too to keep it looking cheerful and happy. The flowers bring good luck and positive energy with it. So it helps in maintaining an air of freshness in your home. And don’t forget to throw it out when it wilts. A rotting flower is not exactly a great eye pleaser.

MOVE YOUR FURNITURE

At least once every month! Well, just like your body, the furniture need some change too. Plus keeping it in the same place for too long will result in static energy, which eventually results in a feeling of stagnancy in your home.

REMOVE THE EVIL EYE

Place a small bowl of rock salt in every corner of your home. The rock salt helps nullify the effect of bad thoughts and negative energy. Remember to flush the salt after every few days.

A HOLY REMEDY

This is a daily fixation in most religious Hindu households – the sprinkling of holy water in the house. It helps to purify your house. The water element also cools down all the negativity that may have been brewing. Make this as a part of your morning ritual and see the difference in your life.

AFFIRM POSITIVITY AND PROSPERITY

You needn’t be religious and recite a long list of verses or scriptures. Even affirming something as simple and positive like ‘Life is perfect, and I am blessed’ can have a huge and wonderful impact on your home. The affirmations have vibrations which keep the air or the atmosphere of your home charged with good energy.
