How to Connect with the Spirit of your home
Hello love!
Did you know your home has a spirit of its own and you can connect with it?! Well it does, you can, and it is easier than you may think!
You may have already gotten a taste of this concept from Marie Kondo. Marie greets a home before she begins her work. I learned about this many years ago when I was trying to sell my home.
After 3 months of being under contract, I had this nagging feeling the deal was going to fall through and none of the professionals were listening.
In this love letter, I’ll share my real life experience, how to connect to your home, and when you should. Connecting to the spirit of your home will literally change the energy of your space and you won’t be the only one to notice.
Connecting to my home
I went to my shaman, who told me the current buyers were not going to get the loan. Before I even got home from my session, my realtor called confirming this and my gut feeling about the whole thing!
During my intuitive session, my shaman met with the house’s Spirit. The home went by the name Bell and she was very poised. Bell wanted children running through her hallways. She wanted the leaves that had piled up along her side walls cleared and she wanted flowers.
After my spiritual session I got Bell some flowers and cleared up the leaves. Then something unbelievable happened, she started playing music.
As impossible as it sounds, one day shortly after, I heard violins. I looked outside expecting to see a car parked out front with the radio on. No car to be found. I listened closer and closer only to realize the music was coming from the basement. As I went down the stairs it stopped.
Needless to say, the house felt more alive after connecting to its spirit and honoring its requests! It went back on the market and sold to the first family who viewed it. The true confirmation for me, about Bell’s musical ability, was when my father asked,“Where’s that music coming from?” as we packed up my house. There was no explanation other than Bell herself, as the basement was empty at that point.
How to connect with your home
First things first, let go of your logical mind and drop your awareness into your heart.
Close your eyes and ask your heart where you should connect to your home’s spirit.
Sit or stand in the area of your home you feel called to.
Place your hands or your bare feet here.
Breathe in a few deep breaths to let go of all expectations. Allow whatever you need to flow right to you. Trust the answers you are given.
Now speak to your home like you would a loved one.
Tell it all the things you are grateful for. For example, “I am so grateful that you shelter and protect me. Thank you for keeping me warm and letting the light shine through your windows. I love how my family gathers in your beautiful kitchen. This is my favorite place to be”.
You will be amazed at how the energy of your space shifts to support you even more. Ask your home what it would like from you or any other questions you have.
When to connect with the spirit of your home
Any time you feel called to connect to your home, you should. Put an offer in on a house? Connect. Applied for an apartment? Connect. These are the perfect times to speak to the spirit of your dream living space before you even move in. Connecting to the spirit may even land you that house, apt, etc.
When you first move in, when you or someone else is moving out, or when things have been feeling stuck or off, these are all good times to connect to the spirit of your home. It can help you get insights into what’s energetically going on.
Another thing that can help shift the energy of your home and may even be suggested to you by your home’s spirit is smudging your space with sage, which you can learn more about in this love letter: How to Sage Your Home.
I hope this inspires you to speak to your home and let it speak to you! Give it a try and let me know how it goes for you down in the comments below.
Namasté,
