Cleansing is an important part of witchcraft as well. There are many different methods, depending in what you believe. Generally speaking, you can basically cleanse everything. Your surroundings like your room/ flat/ house, but also small things like cleansing your food or daily used items. Bad energies or spirits can define your life and bring bad luck. So always make sure everything around you feels appropriate and compatible with your goals.

My most used spell is a simple cleansing spell which only requires one or several white candles.

Smoke of air and fire of earth

Bless and cleanse this home and hearth

Drive away all harm and fear

You can find different forms of spells such as this one in books or online. To banish bad energies witches also often use remedies like a cleansing spray or smudge sticks. You can buy these in ethnical stores or online or make them yourself. I will later go over some basic herbs, you can use. You will find sage or white sage as a base, also common; lavender, rosemary, cedar or flowers. Tie them together with a cotton string and CAREFULLY burn them. In closed spaces especially with fire alerts, make sure for some fresh air flow.
