Workshop Description
It’s never too late to cleanse and protect yourself, your family, or your place. Are you new to the concept? We will cover the basics. Are you a seasoned witch/spiritual/psychic worker? Come get some more tools. Perhaps you investigate the paranormal? Even if you don’t “believe” in some of the concepts, basic psychology and the power of suggestion are powerful (and you most certainly need boundaries to not bring things home). BOUNDARIES: opening and closing when working with spirit, how to assert your will, and how to build protection CLEANSING: how to remove traces of unwanted energy using baths, tools, and mental conjuring SHIELDING: using the above and adding force of spirit guides/ancestors to stand strong REMOVAL: cutting ties, how to investigate deeper attachments, and where to go from there
We will also start with a guided meditation to provide protection for the whole class!
CLASS OUTCOMES
Class attendees will leave having completed a cleansing mediation, and a visualization activity, and received the basics of boundaries, cleansing, shielding, and removal. The class will wrap up with suggested reading and resources and a chance to win a tarot reading with Kate Deeks.
