It’s that time of year when I like to reset. I often do so with spiritual cleansing. I cleanse my home, body and anything around me. This is a all forms of self care…
This week I am “Nourishing myself” by bringing myself back home into my body.
When I say "home”, I mean my body, the body I live in on this realm. In your case, it is your body that you live in on this realm. The environment around us, too, plays a role in our ability to be one with ourselves.
Over the years, I learned a lot about cleansing, protection and spiritual bathing, and how they help with our daily needs and desires such as balance, love, money, peace, protection and general resets. Most Eastern and African Diasporic traditions highlight the importance of cleaning our physical body, and cleansing of our Aura.
As stated the act of cleansing can be a form of deep ritualistic self-care, which helps us to restore our soul. Spiritual cleansing can bring an energetic change that makes us feel at home in our bodies.
To reset for Spring I am using and will be stocking a Baño Blanco.
What exactly is a Baño Blanco (White Bath)?
Baños blancos (white baths) are commonly used for bringing balance back into your life and Ori. The “Ori” is our spiritual head. It’s located at the top of our heads at our crown, it's how we communicate with spirit. It's part of our destiny, intuition and consciousness.
When our Ori is imbalanced, it makes it hard for us to hear our higher selves and our spiritual guides.
White baths are like a hard reset. They help clear away negativity from your body while bringing peace and refreshing our spirit. When we're struggling with anxiety and uncertainty, this bath helps bring the nervous system into a relaxed state. It's like a warm hug for your spirit. Of course it’s not a cure-all, but it’s a step in your self-care journey.
White baths can be used by people of all ages. If you're having trouble sleeping, this ritual can help restore a sense of peace and tranquility into your environment.
You can even use this bath to cleanse your spiritual figurines and crystals if you feel called to do so.
Tips:
- While getting ready for your bath, take time to change your bedsheets to white or a light color, and prepare white clothes to change into. In addition, clean your bedroom, bathroom, and the rest of your home to help create a peaceful environment. Taking time to clean first helps you enter this practice with ease and light thoughts.
- As an option, you can fix two white candles and set them outside of your shower or tub, as this will represent the peace you are about to walk into. You can let the candles burn down all the way or use them again for your next bath.
- Before using your bath mixture, you may leave it at your altar with a candle so that your ancestors can bless it.
- It's common to feel extremely tired or exhausted after a white bath, so resting or going to sleep is often the best thing to do. But if you happen to watch television or listen to music after your bath, make sure to engage in things that won't make you angry or feel deeply blue. Naturally, these emotions may come to the surface; if they do, allow them to pass and wipe your head with cool water.
- Some practitioners will suggest that you take white baths 3, 7, or 9 days straight, but proper divination will help you with this answer. Listen to your intuition, and ask your spirits for what is needed.
- It is best to sleep in white sheets and wear white clothing to bed along with a white head wrap if possible to protect your energy while performing this cleanse.
- According to traditional practice, for the 24 hours following your bath, avoid engaging in sexual activities with yourself or others, smoking or drinking, or engaging in negative self-talk or cursing. These things can lower your vibration and weaken your aura.
