I've actually used sandalwood while i was meditating. I could feel a buzz at the back of my neck so I'm sure something was working there but just wasn't too sure.
It's annoying because my local shop has sold out on sandalwood. Anyways, again. Thank you very much. :)
Another option would be some deep meditation with a focus on drawing good/high vibration energy to yourself. There are a few methods of visualization out there, but the gist of it is pretty straightforward.
Personally, I would suggest you do it at least once In a natural setting, ideally on a nice sunny day.
Wear loose enough clothing that you don't feel pinching or squeezing, especially around the waist. Sit or lay comfortably, just about any pose will do as long as it is easy to be in for a good 20 minutes and stay comfortable. Ideally make sure you can have an aligned back. (Having something you can rest/prop your back against works wonders.)
Set yourself up in some sunshine, take a few relaxing breaths, and put your thoughts on something personal, basic, and in the present moment. Like timing your breaths (in, 1-2-3-4. Pause. Out 1-2-3-4...), counting heartbeats, or counting backwards from 100 by 3's (97, 94, 91, 88, ...)
Give it a minute or two, then focus on the feeling of the sunshine. The warmth and overall presence you feel. Then imagine that same light and warmth passing through you, filling your body and washing away any feelings of heaviness. Think of it like the solar version of a shower washing dirt off your skin, only doing it inside and out.
Let go of the memory of the attack. Not to be confused with forgetting it. What I mean is let go of the impact it had. The emotions and worries the memories draw up. Acknowledge what appears, surround it with light and a sense/thought of love and compassion, and watch it fall away from you.
I recommend doing this at least once because then you will have physical sensations from the actual sun and air to call back on later. So even if you are laying in bed one night you can remember the sensations of the sun's warmth, the (maybe) Breese, the ground under you, and re-living those sensations will really help with your visualizations. It gives the mind something tangible to work with.
Hello,
One of the ways i cleanse myself and its very simple is to run a nice warm bath and add simple table salt to it. Swirl the water and salt together and pray that this powerful concoction cleanses you of all evil and that no evil may touch you ever again. I pray to the arch angels but pray to whoever you believe in or simpley affirm that the bath cleanses and protects you. Now lie in the bath and imagine your aura is a dirty grey colour and see it fall from you and see a white sparkling light underneath. Pray all the time that you are cleansed and free and submerge yourself in the water three times. Get out the bath after say 20minutes and let yourself air dry. Twice a day see and m ore importantly feel yourself bathed in a warm bright white light and pray that you are protected or affirm if you prefer. Repeat the cleansing bath as and when you feel you need. This is very simple but very powerful may you find peace blessed be
If it feels like you are still drained and 'unrecovered' then it might be time to start asking some new questions to figure out why. It may not be actually related to the attack. Or, there is something about the event that you are holding on to. Or, least likely but still possible, the entity responsible is still around.
In all things begin with the mundane. Have a look at your living habits; maybe even start a journal on it for a couple of weeks. Write down what time you get up, when you go to bed, if anything happens to interrupt your sleep, when you eat meals and what you had. At least the basic ideas like 'burger and fries', 'egg on toast', 'cereal with chocolate milk', 'Kraft dinner, klik, and a Twix bar'.
If you run your day fueled by caffeine and sugar with little variety in nutrition, it burns out the system. Fatigue comes from lack of proper rest, interrupted sleep, and (ironically) over sleeping.
Also track your moods. Stress burns a lot of energy. Going to a job you don't enjoy also tends to inspire a state of dread or burnout. Or of course school if it is a stressful environment. (Bullying, grades, etc).
Similarly, are there particular specific times of day that you feel drained? Do you encounter continuing feelings of an intangible presence, especially if it makes you feel cold, weakened, shaky, stressed, and/or like you're under a wet blanket?
Meditation and other spiritual practices are good to help in recovery, and restoration, but it doesn't remove the source of a problem on its own. If you kick a drunkard out of the house, but leave your door unlocked, then said drunkard will just come back inside. Same goes for attachments and other oppressive beings. If it feels like a returning problem, maybe do a repeat of how you got rid of it last time, then afterwords follow up with some warding to your home and reinforce your threshold while including a statement to set ground rules limiting what is allowed within your space.
Continuing to work towards bettering yourself, and growing both spiritually and in general, also helps give a path of gradually raising yourself above the influence of negativity as well. Attachments and negative entities go after people who are in a place of imbalance. It is what they dig into and exploit. Intimidation against people who routinely feel vulnerable or victimized. Manipulating rage into people who already are prone to being angry. Suggestive or even commanding to people who are meek.
Explore where you might have imbalances in your life and work on them. It's not a quick solution, but you can do other things (like what you are already doing) to keep yourself upright as you go. And eventually, probably so gradually you won't even notice it happened right away, you will find you aren't being attacked any more. That the source has no power, and in fact never did to begin with- so long as you didn't give it any.
I decided to forgive all that has been done, but the memories still effect me. Usually taking a deep breath and releasing that unnecessary hatred or negative energy. I had thought the spirit was still around but I'm not all too sure.
I decided to record and ask if there was any spirits around me. I said "Are there any spirits in my presences" and very faintly I had thought I heard "Everyday" but you know, some noises can mimic certain sounds because I went back and forth just to see if I could hear it more vividly. Especially when your mind is racing.
I live in a dysfunctional family with a lot of problems, we recently lost one of relative but all this happened right after he had died. I would assume it has something to do with myself, no job, in a midlife crisis. I sort of understand what you're saying but I was still pretty happy then, seeing the bright side of life.
I would have to admit I do drink too much tea and coffee and cutting down shouldn't be a problem. I've been having lack of sleep ever since the attack, it's strange because a few nights I said to myself that I would only sleep 6 hours and I only slept 6 hours. I gave that a test. On the following day I said I would only sleep 1 hour, so I only slept one hour. Which is very unlikely of me. I mostly sleep 10 hours and that depends on my activity during the month. I've been trying to eat only homemade food.
I felt drained most of the day, like now I feel so refreshed from the sleep I've had but still having the feeling of being drained. It depends if something has annoyed me extremely as well. And I'm trying to let go of the little things. It's almost like a life lesson which to be honest, I'm enjoying in a weird way.
I feel that there isn't anything bothering me. All it has done is drained me and run of like it doing a heist. lol
Meditation has helped me quite a lot but I'm certain it is going to take a lot more energy to fully recover, some people has suggested going to angels or even demons. Since it was a spirit attack, going to angels or demons might be a good idea according to a few people.
I think I made that mistake already by giving it what it wanted, but I've slowly come to realise that and so I'm giving it nothing now. The problem is family, I've tried to explain to one of them but the other one is an atheist who simply wouldn't understand - going for long walks helps too.
I am glad to hear (I guess read?) that you are finding purpose in the situation. I find that adversity of any kind is a powerful teacher, even if it is rather unpleasant at the time. It offers opportunities to learn of the imbalances in one's life, making them visible enough to actively understand and grow from.
Some times you find that the situation itself can't be changed, but perspective can. And if you are fortunate it can only take a single word to break a mental cycle. For example, instead of dwelling on the thought "I don't have a job", when you catch yourself thinking about that add the word 'yet'.
"I don't have a job, yet."
Still identifies a problem, but puts the perspective on a reminder that you are working on it, and you -will- get a job eventually.
In life my personal philosophy goes like this; "Success does not come from lack of being knocked down. Success comes from always getting back up just one more time. There is no such thing as failure until you lay down and stay there."
It sounds to me like you're still getting up. That means victory is assured!
