We are all created from energy, as well as the objects we hold and the situations we are in, meaning that we are surrounded by both positive and negative energy. We all experience hard times and setbacks, but ignoring the negative energy that may keep resurfacing will greatly affect our relationships and balance, especially of our home. The negative things in our lives can easily take a massive toll on our mental health and emotional state without us even realizing it.  Cleansing our home from negative energies or simply from spirits that have lost their ways towards the light and need help in this transition (which is called "shamanic psychopomp") is a beautiful help we are providing to these souls to find their peace after death. I can assist you, as a shamanic practitioner, to take healing to your home or to any spirits that may be involved.  When is a house cleansing required? *Before moving to a new home, as we the property has surely energy blockages from previous experiences of the inhabitants, likely brought on by the challenges of life. *Any time we need to start a new project or phase in our life and we need to cut old energetic cords that bind us and our space to old happenings. *After personal difficulties or illness *If anyone at home is having problems sleeping. How is the cleansing done? Through incense, sound, light, mantras and a shamanic journey. And whatever my Spirit Allies guide me through my intuition.      By attending to our classes, workshops, 1 to 1 sessions and retreats you agree to our TERMS AND CONDITIONS Payment  Bookings are non-refundable.  Disclaimer  By booking a class or workshop or retreat or 1-1 session -online or any other venues – with us, you release Giada Gaslini, Invisible Caims/School of Shamanism from any liability arising out of any personal injuries, emotional or physical release, death, expectations of results, theft in the venue or damages that may happen to people and objects while attending.
