How to Create a Cleansing Ritual to Reset Your Energy

A gentle guide to coming back to yourself—mind, body and soul.

Do you ever get that feeling—like your energy is just a little “off”? Maybe you’ve been feeling foggy, overwhelmed, or a bit stuck in a loop that doesn’t feel quite like you. If that sounds familiar, it might be time to pause, clear the slate, and begin again with a simple cleansing ritual.

And don’t worry, this doesn’t have to be a long or complicated process. It’s really about creating a moment to reconnect, release what’s no longer serving you, and gently shift your energy into a lighter, clearer space.

Here’s a step-by-step guide to creating a beautiful cleansing ritual that you can return to whenever you need to reset.

Step 1: Set the Scene

Start by choosing a space where you feel safe and calm—somewhere you won’t be disturbed for a little while. This could be your bedroom, a quiet corner of your home, or even outside if the weather’s kind.

Begin by taking a few deep breaths. Let your shoulders drop, unclench your jaw, and gently land in the present moment.

If you have our Cleanse & Clarity Ritual Set, this is the perfect time to bring it out. But if you don’t have the set, don’t worry at all. The power of a ritual lies in your intention. You can still create a meaningful moment with what you already have.

Step 2: Cleanse the Space with Sacred Smoke

Using a white sage stick, light the tip and let it catch for a moment before gently blowing it out—allowing the embers to smoulder and release smoke.

Move the smoke slowly around your space (and yourself). Focus on doorways, corners, and any area that feels heavy or stagnant. As you move, say (out loud or in your heart):
“I release what no longer serves me. I welcome clarity and peace.”

This part of the ritual is about letting go. You don’t need to force it—just allow anything old, stuck or unhelpful to gently fall away.

Tip: If you prefer something lighter, you can use Palo Santo instead for a softer, more uplifting energy.

Step 3: Light a Candle with Intention

Now that your space is cleared, light your Hope Meditation Candle—infused with lavender, rosemary and peppermint essential oils.

These scents work beautifully together to help quiet the mind, open the heart and bring a sense of refreshed perspective.

As the flame flickers, take a few more deep breaths and say to yourself:
“I invite in hope, clarity, and gentle renewal.”

This simple act of lighting a candle with intention can shift your mindset and signal to your body that this is a sacred, calming space.

Step 4: Connect with Crystals

In your Cleanse & Clarity Ritual Set, you’ll find a beautiful mix of small but powerful crystals:

• Amethyst for calm and spiritual clarity
  
  

• Rose Quartz for self-love and emotional balance
  
  

• Moonstone for intuition and new beginnings

• Clear Quartz for healing and energetic flow 
  
  

• Selenite (the bowl itself) for pure, high-vibe energy
  
  

Hold one in your hand—or one in each palm if you’re drawn to that—and sit quietly for a moment. Notice how each stone feels. Do any of them feel “right” today? Trust your intuition.

If you have time, pause to meditate, journal, or sit in stillness for a while. Be the observer of your thoughts during this time and let your breath guide you gently through them. 

Step 5: Close with Gratitude

When you feel ready, gently bring your ritual to a close. Blow out the candle, and take a few moments to give thanks—whether it’s for the clarity you’ve received, the calm you now feel, or simply for showing up for yourself today.

You can leave your crystals out where you’ll see them or keep them close by - in your selenite bowl to continue charging with pure energy.

This ritual can be done anytime—at the start of a new week, during a full moon, after a challenging day, or whenever your energy needs a reset.

Remember: your energy matters. And taking a few moments to honour it, clear it, and protect it isn’t just powerful—it’s essential.
