“Every cell in my body is loved and healthy”
Your aura is simply an extension of you. When strong it acts as a protective shield. When fragile or damaged it can leave you drained, unwell and feeling disconnected from yourself.
Think of your aura as your own personal bodyguard (in the form of a giant bubble) that simply “flicks off” anything stressful, disturbing or potentially draining that you may be sensitive too.
I’m a firm believer in cleansing and nurturing the aura for the overall integrity of our health and well being. Particularly, when many ancient cultures from around the world believe, that illness first starts with a weakness in our auric field.

Years ago I completed a crystal healing practitioner course and discovered how effective crystals are in cleansing, repairing and strengthening the aura. Black tourmaline would have to be my favorite as it can draw off and then transmute negative energies we may have knowingly or unknowingly been exposed too.
If crystals are not your “thing” then I have shared with you below, a collection of aura cleansing and strengthening remedies that I have gathered and used (at some stage) over the past 20 years.
Please feel free to share your own aura strengthening remedies that you have successfully used the past, I’d love to hear them.
12 great ways to strengthen your aura
1) Yogic cleansing bath
This recipe helps removes chemicals from your physical body and negativity from your aura. Soak for 20 minutes each day and repeat for 7 days.
If you start to feel dizzy or a little weird leave bath immediately as you have successfully loosened and removed enough toxins and negativity for one day.
- 1 lb Baking soda
- 1 cup Sea salt
* Six special bath recipes for sleep, relaxation and healing:
2) Sage smudge stick
The smoke from white sage is known by the North American Indians to be very cleansing. I love white sage and have used it successfully for over 20 years to remove negative vibes that I sense in my home or around me.
Sage emits negative ions which is the good stuff you find in the air just after a storm or at the ocean.
To cleanse your aura, simply light your sage smudge stick and use your hand to direct the smoke over your head, face, front/sides of your body, under your feet, around your hands and arms, and as much of your back as you can reach.
3) Let the sun feed your aura
Lots of lovely sunshine is known to feed and expand the aura. Spending time outside amongst nature is incredibly healthy for your body, mind, and soul.
The sun fuels you with energy, optimism and loads of vitamin D whilst nature nourishes your senses and grounds you.
4) Sea salt
Swimming in the ocean or soaking in a saltwater bath greatly helps to cleanse the aura and draw out stress.
The sun expands and feeds your aura whilst the sea carries away the negativity.
If you don’t have a bath, and not near the ocean, simply give your body a sea salt scrub before taking a shower. Grab a handful of sea salt and rub it all over your skin before showering. It helps remove dead skin cells, refreshes your aura and draws out toxins.
5) Cold shower
Cold showers have the ability to clear away negativity in your auric field, remove toxins, improve circulation and draw out tension from your body.
I have personally put the cold shower theory to the test for a whole 3 months (over summer a few years ago). The results were amazing.
My thoughts were clearer, I felt lighter, more energy and things which normally bothered me and hung around my thoughts for days – came and went with ease. I didn’t hold onto negative stuff as I had done before. It helped me greatly through a very difficult time in my life.
Pro tip – for a cleaner feeling, use a shower filter. To learn more about shower filters check out Healthy Water Guide’s AquaBliss shower filter review.

6) Sound medicine
Sound is recognized by many ancient cultures as a healing tool. The sound from Tibetan singing bowls and crystal bowls are well known for their ability to dissolve negativity and clean your energies. Listening to their sounds before going to sleep is an easy way to support your overall well-being.
Alternately chanting the sound “Om” is an incredibly fast and efficient way to shift stuck, stagnant or negative energy from your aura and physical body.
