DIY Chakra clearing: a quick, simple visualisation

It’s fabulous to receive a chakra clearing from an energy worker. It’s so relaxing and at the same time energising, I call it spring cleaning for the soul, because you really do feel so much better after it. It’s also possible to clear your own chakras, as this article explains. There’s also a quick visualisation you can use any time you feel a bit jaded. I use this at Angel Parties, so the guests are in the best energetic space for the experience, and I’m sharing it here with you. It’s not one of my own visualisations, it’s something a friend used when she gave me my first-ever chakra clearing, and it’s very effective.

As I’ve mentioned previously, in my book, The Soul Cave, chakras are invisible energy centres, usually thought of as wheels, since the word itself derives from the Sanskrit word for ‘wheel’ or ‘circle.’ In this visualisation, I use the wheel concept to spin, clear and cleanse the chakras. It’s a really simple visualisation that anyone can do, whether they are experienced in energy work or not.

When I conduct chakra balancing sessions, I use crystals, an energy generator and various visualisations. I also bring in Archangels and spirit guides for a profound experience that leaves the client relaxed and feeling lighter and more positive. It’s a fabulous experience, and the good news is, you can recreate it at home.

Crystals aligned for chakra clearing

You don’t even need to use crystals, although they do serve to raise the energetic vibrations, focus your intent, and give you an idea of where you should be directing the energy flow during the visualisation. This is how it works.

Visualisation for clearing and aligning the 7 main chakra centres

As with any spiritual practice, it pays to be in a state of relaxation before you begin, so take the time to breathe in through the nose for a count of three, hold for three, then exhale through the mouth for three. Do this 3 – 5 times, then follow these simple instructions.

A pendulum is a visible energy check, before and after chakra clearingCheck your energy by holding a pendulum above each chakra in turn. If they are blocked, the pendulum will hardly move. If the energy is flowing freely, it will swing around in a circle. The lower, more physical chakras are more likely to be blocked than the higher ones, but you need to align all the chakras together for best results.Place each of the crystals alongside the relevant chakras. The positions don’t need to be precise, as long as they are in the general vicinity of the chakra centres. Not sure where they are? This article will explain.Close your eyes, and visualise the root chakra as a red wheel. Imagine it turning clockwise, in a steady spin. When you have achieved the desired effect, do the same with an orange wheel representing the sacral chakra, but keep the momentum going with the root chakra, so they spin in alignment.Repeat this process through all the chakras – solar plexus, heart, throat, third eye, crown – allowing 30 seconds to a minute for each one. Imagine that you are building a spinning pole, similar to an old-fashioned barber’s pole, using the traditional colours of the chakras for each wheel, all the way up through your torso. (see the bottom of the page for an illustrated colour guide to the chakras)Once all 7 chakra wheels are steadily spinning in alignment, slow down the process by reversing the spin so the wheels are now travelling anti-clockwise.Wait until your body feels normal again, and the wheels are no longer spinning. Come slowly back into the room, then take a drink of water to ground yourself. If you’re still feeling a bit spaced out, use this grounding exercise to return your energy to normal.Now check the energy in each of the chakra points with the pendulum once more. You should see a marked improvement, and you will feel relaxed and lighter. Repeat this ritual whenever you feel your energies need clearing to flow more readily.

You can use this visualisation for yourself, guide others through it, or even do a simultaneous chakra balancing with your partner or a friend. Lie on the floor or the bed, and set out the crystals between you before beginning the visualisation and leading your companion through it with you. You’ll find the increased energy levels will benefit each of you, and it’s a great way to strengthen your soul connection.

I hope this visualisation will help you connect with your energy on a deeper level than ever before. Let me know how you get on – I’d love to know. Love and blessings.
