Cleansing & Clearing Your Energy - a Gentle Prayer

Guidance from a Morning Meditation

A Quiet Morning
This morning began the way many do. It is a warm August morning. The air is cool and damp with dew. I opened my window and looked out over the trees, the lake, the dock, and the peaceful morning sky. Three deer stood quietly, looking back at me, as if reminding me to slow down and simply be present...

​
​I picked up my journal, settled into meditation, and asked a question:
"What information is most pertinent for me to receive today?"

The Council of 12
During my meditation, my guides gently lifted my awareness above the earth plane. I found myself seated among what felt like a Council of Twelve. Whether you understand this literally, symbolically, spiritually, or simply as the language of your own intuition doesn't matter. What matters most is the message...

The Council of 12

​You are Brave
​They expressed deep gratitude for those who choose to come into this world to be of service. They described the helpers, healers, and compassionate souls as incredibly brave. Earth is beautiful, they explained, but it can also be heavy.

Release Heavy Energies
Simply by living here, we absorb information through our senses. We witness pain. We feel grief. We encounter fear, sadness, anger, confusion, and suffering. Yet just because we observe these experiences does not mean we are meant to carry them.

Not Yours to Hold
One of the greatest lessons I received this morning was this:

• We can witness without becoming burdened.
• We can care deeply without carrying the weight of the world.
• We can love others without losing ourselves.

Sometimes those of us who naturally help others unknowingly carry emotional and energetic burdens that were never ours to hold.

Help Is Available
The Council explained that each person has loving spiritual assistance available. They described each of us as having a Council of Twelve whose purpose is to support us whenever we ask. Their message wasn't that we have to clear our energy entirely by ourselves.

Their Message was Gentle

• Simply ask.
  
• Allow yourself to receive.
• Allow yourself to be helped.

A Prayerful Request
​They then offered me the following prayerful request. I share it as it came to me...

A Prayerful Request to Cleanse and Clear Energy

A Prayerful request to Cleanse and clear Energy

​Dear Goodness,

Thank you for cleansing and clearing my energy, that I carry no-thing.

That no burden is mine to carry.

That I myself am full of Light, Love, and Compassion.

That I myself am in alignment with my Higher Power and of maximum service in belief, thought, words and deeds.

That I myself am a Lighthouse through which the Source-of-All may shine.

May all Be-ings, including myself, be greatly blessed, beyond our wildest imagination.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

Amen and amen.

The Practice 3·6·9
They gently encouraged me to say this request out loud three times, three times each day.

• Three.
• Six.
• Nine.

As I spoke the words, I felt lighter. My spirit seemed to lift. My heart softened. It wasn't that I was trying to force myself to become peaceful. Rather, it felt like I was allowing Loving Assistance to work on my behalf.

Give it a Try
I don't ask anyone to believe exactly what I believe. Instead, I simply invite you to try this practice for yourself.

1. Say the request aloud.
2. Say it three times.
3. Repeat it three times throughout your day.
4. Notice what changes.
5. Notice how you feel.

Notice whether your heart becomes lighter, your mind quieter, your body more relaxed, or your awareness more peaceful.
Your own experience will always be your greatest teacher.

Ask. Receive. Allow.
Whether you believe in God, angels, guides, the Universe, your Higher Power, Divine Love, or simply the healing power of intention, the invitation is the same:

• Ask.
• Receive.
• Allow.

​Walking Together
Every day I become more convinced that healing isn't only about what we do ourselves. Healing is also about allowing ourselves to receive help—from one another, from our Higher Power, and from the loving presence that surrounds us in ways we may not always understand.
Perhaps one of the bravest things we can do is simply allow ourselves to be supported.

If I May Be of Service
If something in this article resonates with you, I'd be honored to walk alongside you on your own journey. Through holistic counseling, spiritual life coaching, energy healing, guided meditations, healing artwork, and my book, my hope is to help others reconnect with themselves, deepen their relationship with their Higher Power, and experience greater peace, clarity, purpose, and love.

With Gratitude
​Thank you for spending this time with me. I appreciate you more than you know. I send you my love, my blessings, and my heartfelt hope that your path continues to unfold in beautiful and unexpected ways. May you feel supported, protected, deeply loved, and reminded that you never walk this journey alone.

Love,
Jennifer
