A method of healing inspired by Katara, and other waterbending healers. It is as close to my heart as this show is. Below are two ways I use this method ~
In the Bath ~
🌀 This method is best used for self healing
🌀 Create your own “spirit water” by adding amethyst, moon water & healing herbs to your bath. I like to use rosemary and bay leaves.
🌀 Lay back, and close your eyes.
🌀 Visualize yourself in the water. Picture a ray of light scanning back and forth over you, like above.
🌀 As it sweeps over you, visualize it to removing any negativity.
🌀 Sometimes I notice it get “stuck” on a certain area, or start to move slowly. This usually indicates a blockage. Focus on those areas a little more intently.
🌀 When you are finished, stand up, and do one last sweep, downwards. Imagine the water droplets falling off of you are the last of your negativity.
🌀 As the bath empties, all negative build-up goes with it.
Healing Yourself & Others ~
🌀 This method is done purely with visualization and moon water, specifically charged with the intent to heal. It can also be done in the astral.
🌀 Place the moon water in a bowl in front of you. Bonus: drop a piece of quartz in to amplify it’s effects. An infusion like the one used in the first method can be used as well.
🌀 Visualize the water rising up out of the bowl and surrounding your hands, like Katara does.
🌀 Now, like the first method, start scanning. Run your hands over yourself or your client, searching for blockages. (If you already know the area you’d like to heal, you can skip this step.)
🌀 As your hands work back and forth across the area you are healing, visualize the water sweeping through, washing away any negative or stagnant energy.
🌀 Allow it to break through any blockages, clearing them.
🌀 When finished, let the water fall back into the bowl, taking all negativity with it. Thank the element, before safely disposing of it.
Things to Consider ~
🌀 Visualization and intent are key. You don’t need to use physical water, I just find it helps.
🌀 Do what feels right to you.Intuition is so important in healing. This method came to me one day while I was soaking in the tub. I instantly connected it to how Katara heals, and built off of that. Since then, the series continues to inspire my methods. I use hand movements often while doing energy work, so it works for me.
🌀 Healing takes time. It may take a few sessions to really clear away any build-ups or blockages. Be patient with yourself.
– take a therapeutic walk through nature, allowing your soul to wander and yourself to breathe
– meditate outdoors, paying extra close attention to the surrounding sounds and the feel of the sun on your skin
– place fresh flowers or a cute succulent near your bed to greet you each morning
– keep a small “boost bag” in your purse or pocket, filled with dried petals and herbs, a favorite crystal or stone, and a leaf/tree/animal shaped pendant
Salt – the Witches best friend. There is black salt, purple salt, pink Himalayan salt etc etc.. I’m quite sure that there are posts similar to this floating around, but I wanted to share my element salts.
Of course you can change every ingredient and exchange it with another
one, but for me these were available and not really expensive. Most of
the ingredients are already in your kitchen or easy to access.
🔥 Fire salt
Ingredients: cinnamon, chilli, coffee + red food dye
Charge with sunlight
💧 Water salt
Ingredients: leafes from a growing bush, rosemary, moss + blue food dye
Well, I use them for almost everything. For spell jars you maybe associate with a special element (e.g air for creativity), small altar jars that are supposed to represent each element or even if you want to cast a circle.
If you use them, feel free to tag me in your posts! I´d love to know what you did with them or what ideas you have.
There is something very primal about using the elements to cleanse our energetic bodies. Given we are made from the same matter as Mother Earth, utilizing the four physical elements is a way of connecting us back to our roots. And one does not have to be in the middle of a forest to utilize the power of the elements… for someone like myself who lives in a city, utilizing the four elements for cleansing the energetic body helps maintain a connection with and grounding to Gaia.
Cleansing of the energetic body should be a daily ritual. Our interaction with others and with locations and objects holding energetic fields means that the purity and balance of our energetic bodies are constantly compromised, so a regular practice of cleansing is needed for optimum spiritual, mental and physical health.
