Have you ever had a tiring day and felt better after a shower? What about getting off an airplane following a long trip and feeling refreshed once you take a shower?

Intuitively we all have known for some time that bathing can release psychic and emotional energy as well as relax the physical body. 

Washing with water is a space clearing method of releasing excess energy from yourself, so spiritual bathing can be a successful method of energy cleansing and it’s especially effective for water signs.

Consider for a moment how many people and auras you interact with, merge with, and mesh with during one single day.

A little bit of each of those energies stays with us, and while some of it naturally detaches, these energies can build up. 

Periodically releasing these energies from our field can return our Spirit to a state of balance and we can do it with psychic bathing.

The act of psychic or spiritual bathing is defined as the cleansing, clearing, and strengthening of your emotional, spiritual, and energetic state with water.

Adding a psychic bath into your routine can help you release energies that are no longer serving you so you can restore your body’s sense of ease and comfort.

In a spiritual bath, you intentionally release what no longer aligns with your vibration to return your Spirit to its highest and greatest state more quickly, centering yourself in a peaceful and relaxing way. 

First let’s discuss the different types of spiritual baths you can take -

3 Different Types of Psychic Baths

1. Floral Baths

You can add flowers to your bath to increase their spiritually healing and cleansing potential. It’s like soaking in a flower essence as it’s being made.

Each flower has a different spiritual purpose, as to which energy types they will work as the anti-dote to restore the spiritual body, but they all have something to offer in terms of energetic properties.

When immersing yourself in the energy of the flower realm, ask them to renew your energy and renew your Spirit. It is like connecting with Fairies; you can make specific requests. Flower energies are gentle, so they can be a soothing way to renew your soul.

First, check out what dried flowers you have in your herbal cabinet. In herbalism, it’s believed the herbs you may need most are often the ones nearest to you.

If you don’t have any dried flowers, two good places to start are dried organic lavender or dried organic rose petals.

When you have selected your flowers, add them to a reusable organic cotton tea bag.. I add 1-3 full tea bags to a bath and tie the bags shut. Add the bags to your bath as you are filling the water.

A note about adding loose florals to your bath: while the photos with loose flower petals floating on bathwater look nice, keep in mind, cleaning up after these baths can be a chore.

You can also add flower concentrates to your bath, like essential oils. If you do this, I recommend adding any oil concentrate combined with salt to help it dissolve.

2. Salt Baths

Salt is beneficial in restoring and healing our bodies. 

The minerals within salt absorb through our skin when immersed in water and can have a physical effect, which in turn can have a cleansing effect on the mind and spirit. 

Salts are necessary nutrients for our survival as beings on earth, and replenishing our salt balance can be incredibly therapeutic to your energy field.

For a salt bath, there are several different kinds of salts you can use for a spiritually restorative bath. Each has different properties.

Epsom Salt is for relaxing and drawing out energy. Himalayan Salt is for charging your energy. Celtic Salts are for restoring and grounding.

If you don’t have any of these exotic salts on hand, use what you have.

Baking soda, everyone’s favorite multitasker and also known as sodium bicarbonate, is often recommended for soothing skin.

How much salt to use: Between 1-2 cups, but you can adjust this estimate as needed. Use a little less or a little more, depending on how big the bathtub is and how deep you’re filling it.

On the topic of mineral baths, you can also add crystals to your bath water. Before adding any crystals to your water check their hardiness level, as some crystals dissolve in water. Do not add small crystals to the tub as they can go down the drain - use your larger, more resilient stones.

A few of my favorite “bath crystals” are clear and rose quartz.

How To Release Negativity In Your Bath

Step 1. Ground

Once you have prepared your bath, get in and simply breathe.

Inhale and exhale. Sense the bathtub supporting you and imagine all of the day’s energy being absorbed into the water around you. Starting from the beginning of your day to the current moment, recount the events, circumstances and people you were grateful for.

Step 2. Visualize

Next, rest your gaze or close your eyes and begin to scan your energy field with your mind’s eye. Begin by imagining your aura around you and moving from your feet to your crown, notice any images or thoughts that come into your mind spontaneously. These images or thoughts could indicate residual energies in your energy body that could be released.

Ask these energies to please detach from your body, and imagine them floating away from you. In their place, imagine the spaces filling in with aqua green light.

Step 3. Amplify

Now call back your energy. Imagine all the cords of energy you've sent out there during the day, coming back to you. In every interaction we have, we send out a tether of energy and these are also sent back to us.

Call all of your energy cords back to you and imagine these cords being made of golden light. As they return to your body, they coil into your stomach and fill your energy with glowing golden light.

Imagine this golden light, radiating from within, expanding throughout your body, eventually moving to your skin and then, filling your aura.

3. Psychic Showers

Place your feet firmly on the shower floor, and imagine roots coming out of your feet, going through your shower floor, and the floors beneath you, anchoring you to the ground beneath you.

Next, visualize your energy field and imagine all of the foreign energies being washed, knocked off, and falling from your energy field, going down the drain with the water of the shower.

Thank mother earth, and her rivers, lakes and oceans, for accepting this energy and cleansing it for you. 

To add herbs: Place a sprig of dried herbs under your shower head.

To add salt: Do a salt scrub




Getting Out Of Your Spiritual Bath Or Shower

When you feel relaxed, warm and calm, reach over to the drain of the bathtub and release the water. Once you release the drain, step out of the bath at any time.

In a shower, turn off the flow of the shower, before you step out of it, begin to dry off.

I recommend drying from the crown of the head downward, as to settle the energy down your body.

You have now learned the basics of Psychic Bathing and working with water energy to psychically enhance your vibration.
