Have you ever felt that your home fills you with tiredness, bad mood, or that "nothing goes right" for no clear reason? You are not alone. Many people describe feelings of heaviness, pointless arguments, and a tense atmosphere at home. Noticing when negative energy takes over your space can be the first step to restoring harmony and feeling better where you live.

Here I show you some practical tricks and signs to help you identify if you urgently need an energy cleansing.

1. Unexplained emotional changes

Do you change your mood as soon as you cross the door of your house? If anger, sadness, or exhaustion appear for no reason and you can't find a clear cause, your space is probably filled with negative energy.

Both environmental psychology and many popular traditions confirm what you may have already noticed: the environment greatly influences how you feel. Environments can spread emotions just like the flu.

2. Problems with your plants and pets

Are your plants not thriving even though you take great care of them? Is your pet restless, anxious, or avoiding certain corners of the house? They are true radars of dense vibrations. If, despite your best efforts, you see everything declining, your home may be asking for help.

Feng shui considers both plants and animals as natural filters. If you pay attention to them, you will detect energy problems before they become something bigger.

3. Electrical failures, damaged objects, and bad odors

Do your appliances fail for no reason? Does the internet only work poorly at your house? Do the lights flicker? Many associate these details with an accumulation of negative energy. Bad odors, even after cleaning, are another warning. Scents are directly related to the energy of the environment; where there is stagnation, there are also persistent odors.

And what about the pile of broken or old things all over the house? Accumulating items that are no longer useful blocks the energy flow, visually wears you down, and according to feng shui, can hinder the entry of positive vibrations.

4. Heavy atmospheres, arguments, and poor rest

Are there frequent arguments, nightmares, insomnia, or an uncomfortable “presence” in some areas of your home? It is often a cry for energetic help. Listen to your intuition. If you feel like someone is watching you or that something “is not flowing,” you are probably picking up signals that your body detects before your mind.

Practical tips to cleanse and renew the energy in your home

• Open the windows every day so that the air —and energy— can circulate freely.


• Smudge with palo santo, sage, or incense. The smoke helps to disperse dense energy.


• Place containers with coarse salt in the corners for a few hours; salt is a great ally for absorbing bad vibes.


• Move the furniture and get rid of objects that only take up space and connect you to the past.


• Use sound: bells or Tibetan bowls are excellent for breaking stagnant vibrations.
