What is an energetic cord? Are they bad? What do I need to know about them?

Updated 3.11.21

Energetic cords are formed in the normal course of interaction with others. We exchange energy through words, thoughts, and emotions. The cords allow this energy to flow. So, what is energetic cord cutting, and why do we need to cut energy cords?

Energetic cords can be positive or negative – healthy or unhealthy.

Positive, healthy cords are those of love and affection. They yield positive, mood-enhancing effects – inspiration, spiritual uplift, and optimism. If you walk away from an interaction with someone feeling happy, upbeat or supported, then you can be sure a healthy energetic cord was created.

In contrast, negative cords leave you feeling drained, emotionally exhausted, and depleted.

Negative energetic cords can be created maliciously from one person to other, as with angry ex-lovers or jealous co-workers. But in my experience, the majority of negative cords are created unknowingly. They come from people who don’t realize their doing it. People who are  depressed or struggling, feeling lost or alone who find themselves attracted to your light, like bugs to a lantern.

Regardless of how it occurs, these negative cords are plugs into your energetic outlet depleted your energy reserves. It’s time to pull the plug! It’s time for some energetic cord cutting!!

Here’s a few tips on cutting energy cords. Remember to do so with love and good intentions for all involved.

• Simply intend.

  Sit or stand comfortably. Take a few deep diaphragmatic breaths. (Get my free breathing meditation to help!)  Call in your Spirit team and settle your mind. Set the intention to remove all energetic cords that no longer serve your highest and greatest good. And So It Is.

• Take a salt and lavender bath or shower!

  This is not just a great way to release negativity from your own energy but while you do, set the intention to cut energetic cords. And So It Is.

• Visualize.

  Use your imagination and visualize the other person standing in front of you and imagine the energetic cord that exists.  Try and perceive its location in your body, material makeup, thickness, and density. Visualize pulling and pulling on this cord until it is fully removed. Call on the other person’s Spirit team to escort them out of your energy field. Watch as they walk farther and farther away from you until they are out of sight.

• Phone-a-Spiritual Friend!

  Sometimes it can be hard to see the forest for the trees. If heavy, negative energy and thoughts are plaguing you and you are not able to hold the intention and see the healing process unfold, don’t hesitate to call in some help from an energy worker or spiritual friend! Energetic cord cutting is a part of every one of my comprehensive energy healing sessions.

• Call in Archangel Michael

  Ask him to remove all negative cords and energy attached to you. If you’ve ever experienced his energy before you know how powerful he is. If Michael is new to you, read more about him here.

• Call upon your Spirit Animal.

  Mine is a rhinoceros. I call him my spiritual bouncer – he is wonderful! In meditation I envision his mighty horn going through my auric field slicing through and removing all cords and head butting all of the “energy vampires” from my aura.

• Ask your Protector Guide.

  If you don’t know who your protector guide is, simply settle into a meditation and ask for them to identify themselves. Once you know, you can call on them anytime to help with cutting energy cords.
