Welcome to my first blog of 2021! I had a few lovely weeks of re-creation with my yarn and my family. Now inspiration is coming back to me to continue my writing, teaching, and other work.
Today, 1/11/21, I posted a mindful moment to Facebook about our devices as energetic portals.
We often mind the energy of our sacred spaces. We may clear our own energy regularly. But what about our phones? I think of cell phones, and other devices, as portals. We use them to call, text, access social media, watch videos, and do so many other things. Being that everything is energy, our mobile phones function as gateways for energies of those things. For example, we could be chatting with a loved one, and really feel the love and light coming through this connection, facilitated by the device. On a not so comfortable note, less desirable energies may come through from advertising, strife, news reports, and mis-information campaigns. As this energy comes through the device (be it a phone, or computer), it can latch onto our energetic fields. It can also accumulate in our devices.
Thankfully, there are ways we can clear, bless, and protect our devices. Here are some of my go-to techniques.
- Smudge all sides of the device. I use sage and sweetgrass. You can use the herbs that appeal to you, such as rosemary or palo santo.
- Invoke St. Germain’s violet flame of transmutation to neutralize all energies in the phone that do not serve our highest good.
- Use a background picture that feels protective. I have used pictures of sheila na gigs, goddesses, and dragons, and other gateway guardians.
- Sometimes I place an energetic square around my screen, allowing in only those energies and experiences that are to my highest good.
- I have attached some cleansing crystals to my computer. One could tape selenite near the screen. Just be mindful with laptops, that we don’t close the screen onto a crystal.
- And finally, it can be easy to allow things we see to trigger us. As we mind our own energetic well being, it can reduce the energetic hooks and cords that make it through our devices.
- Physically wipe down the device with appropriate cleaners.
If you find you could use emotional support, or help clearing your own energies, I am providing distance reiki! For more information, please visit my website:

Thank you for joining me in this mindful moment! I strive to teach through my own actions and observations. As inspiration comes, I will post more of these mindful moments. I used to post them to my blog page as digests, but I feel that it may be easier to navigate the individual moment topics if I post them on a day by day basis instead. To catch the posts as I make them on social media, follow me on Facebook and Instagram!
Bright blessings,
