House cleansing?
First, I would greatly like to thank all of you who responded to my last post. It gave me a lot to think about. Thanks to the poster who suggested the herbal bath, that DID help, quite a bit. Secondly, I'd like to apologize for posting so goshdarned much. It's just that I greatly appreciate and respect the feedback I get from the lot of you, and the diversity of all of it. Again, thank you muchly.
Problem under cut
Long story short, I live with my parents while I amass more funds to move out on my own, which is pretty hard with apartment rates skyrocketing because of the well workers that are in the area for the gas industry, but I digress. My parents (mother and step father) allowed my brother to move his girlfriend in last... October, I believe, because of perceived issues with her own mother. This just made TONS of things happen in the span of six or so months. Not only has the stress level in the house skyrocketed like those apartment rates, but there have been multiple fights started because of her, disrespect of my parents from her (which is a big NONO in my book) and the inevitable forced change in my brother, who used to be a decent fellow.
My parents finally put their foot down, and because of something that happened, my brother's girlfriend is moving back to her parents, and forcing my brother to go back with her. They've since moved most of their things out but a few furniture and odds and ends, and let me tell you, the stress and tension in this house? It was so thick that the absence of it is so WONDERFUL that you cannot believe the relief I've been feeling. It's amazing... only, it's not completely gone because we still have to deal with her for a while longer. I was thinking of doing a house cleansing after we're SURE she's totally gone. I know it's my parents' house, but they've gone to our "summer home" aka the river lot, for the summer, and it's just me in the entirety of the house, so, I figured it wouldn't be too invasive.
And yes, that WAS the short version(it was that bad).
I was wondering if anyone had any tips as to what the best methods, and/or the most effective methods are in performing this. I want to wait til I'm sure she can't bring any more negativity back, so that does give me a little time to prepare. What are some tools you find most useful? Chants? Rituals? I'm open to something simple, but effective. No one likes to live in a house that's just reeking of negativity, am I right? Any help, as always, is most appreciated.
Thanks!--
