Cutting cords is not only important, it is NECESSARY and once you learn how to cut them, you can do it easily and effortlessly in any circumstance. 

Cord cutting is super important, especially if you are a sensitive person. 

I’m assuming you are one of these feeling people, and that is why you are here. Many of us are growing even more SENSITIVE as time goes on and the world changes.

Just because you feel doesn’t mean you should shut yourself down. Instead, learning how to work with your sensitivities will help you develop more of your gifts and also live a life you desire to live. Our feelings give us so much information about what we love to do and don’t. We don’t want to shut them down. Most empaths shut down their heart because they feel too much. You can’t walk around life with a closed off heart. With a close heart, you will never get to see your dreams come to fruition.

You are a loving, compassionate, sensitive person for a reason and learning how to cut cords so you can feel safe is going to help you thrive in this world, not hide. There is a great ritual to help you cut cords to negative situations, beliefs, people, and experiences, stopping you from feeling shackled and imprisoned and giving you a sense of safety and freedom.

EVERYTHING IS ENERGY. You are energy. I’m energy. And cords are energy. Cords can be created at any moment when two people are interacting. They aren’t always bad. Some cords can be quite good, like the ones you have between you and your Spirit Guides. I teach a bit about this in my course Everyday Guided Living. Energetic cords with your Guides are the kinds of cords you want to grow. 

But then there are those cords that can be downright NASTY! Like just today I was on the tennis court and on the court next to us were the “mean girls” I stay away from. Their energy was infiltrating my game, so I put an energetic wall up between us and forgot they were even there. 

Learning how to cut cords the minute you feel them frees you up to have fun and enjoy your life. By doing the ritual below every day for a while, you will become experienced in cutting cords the minute you feel them entangling you, just like I did on the court. 

The first step to cord cutting is knowing when the unhealthy cords are being created. Overly conscious people can feel them when they are happening. It feels like you have just been slimed. Emotions may run through your system that you can’t make sense of. So if you have been growing your consciousness, you know what I’m talking about. Other people can go on living their lives, not realizing that there is a cord that may affect their decision-making capabilities. But that’s not you! You are here because you are sensitive and want to make sure you aren’t dragging other people’s crap around with you. Good for you!

Cords can affect you in many ways. If you aren’t conscious and you have a cord that you haven’t cut, you may have felt and been thinking things that are not really you. You also may pick up some weird behaviors that aren’t your typical habits. 

I once had an ex-boyfriend’s cord become very troublesome. Because of this cord, I would walk into Trader Joes every day picking out beer to drink, and I wasn’t a beer drinker. Not only was I desiring beer, but I was super depressed and had no reason to be so sad. Because I’m intuitive, I knew it wasn’t mine and sought help to cut those cords. His were particularly troublesome because he was no longer with us. So not only did I have to cut the cords, but I had to release the spirit. I did it and it worked. 

Best Time To Do A Cord Cutting Ritual

Before I share with you some great cord cutting rituals, I want you to know that once you get used to doing this; you don’t have to do it all the time.

I have gotten to a place where a certain amount of protection is always in place for me. I’ve used different tools to keep myself safe from other people’s energy. Once you do this enough, the mechanism is automatically there and only has to be replenished during certain times. I share more about those tools in my empathic class. Now let’s get into a cord cutting ritual that you can use to cut those cords!

The best time to do a ritual is any time you feel safe. I usually do mine in the morning before I go into a meditation. My energy is more vibrant to connect with my Spirit Guides in the morning hours.

You may find it’s best to do in a shower, a bath, at night before you go to sleep, or outside under the moon.

The beauty about this work and the way I teach is that it’s important that you find what works best for you. When you honor your intuition around this ritual, you are going to have a delicious, empowering experience that stays with you. So ask your intuition now, when is the best time for you to do a cord cutting ceremony and trust what you hear? Worst-case scenario, you do it and realize there may be a better time for you.

This is a sacred time for you to honor what you feel and let go of what you don’t need. I don’t believe you have to sit down, light candles to do this type of ritual to cut cords. You can do the one below any time and it will cut the ties that bind you. Once you have done it for a few weeks, you can do it wherever you are, whenever you need it. This ritual is something you can use any time you are exiting a crowd, around many people, before you go to bed at night, on the tennis court near mean people or even if you see a lot of clients.

What Is A Cord Cutting Ritual

Any time you use a ritual you are saying to yourself, you count. You are taking time out of your busy day to address something that is important to you. It’s a sacred time that helps you to grow closer to your soul.

how to cut your cords

Sit in a comfortable position and feel your physical body. Breathe into your center (wherever that is for you, your intuition knows). Breathe 3 full, deep breaths. Feel yourself calming down. Feel your physical body and know that you are powerful. That nothing has a hold over you. That you can release all negative energy that you may have attracted. Now breathe in three times and every time you inhale, ask Archangel Michael to come forward. When you exhale, feel yourself releasing more of what you don’t need. 

Visualize the cords that may be attached to your cords. Yes, they are attached to the cords you walk around with. They aren’t just attached to your body. Ask Archangel Michael to cut the cords that are binding you. You don’t need to be specific, but you can be. I sometimes will be very clear about the cords I want to cut. I may say, cut the cords between me and so and so or between me and that event (yes you can get cords from an event) etc.

So whether or not you are specific, Arcangel Michael knows exactly which cords to sever. Then envision an enormous sword coming down and cutting the cords completely. Your cords will go back to you. The ones that aren’t yours will fall to the ground and dissolve. You can also ask Mother Nature to take them and put them into a fiery pit. They will burn up and go back to where they belong (to that person, place, or event). 

After cutting the cords, ask Archangel Michael to drop down his platinum net and pull all energy that isn’t yours out of all your systems. This will gather up any debris that is left behind. See him dump that net and all its contents into that fiery pit. 

Do this for a few weeks and then you will do this wherever you are whenever you feel you need to cut cords. Before long, you will feel better and it won’t feel necessary to do this all the time. Strength and empowerment will be with you when you are around people or situations that don’t serve you. With consciousness, you can use the ceremony above at any time to cut cords. You won’t feel it’s necessary to sit down and do a ritual. Remember to make it your own. 

Signs Of Unhealthy Cording

Now that you have some great tools to cut cords, you may wonder if there is ever a time when cutting cords can be unhealthy. I never felt it’s unhealthy to cut cords because I feel you are always the master of your own destiny. So if you feel there is a cord that is not serving you, I would suggest cutting it. It’s not only about the cord. It’s about what you feel about it, and the power you think it has over you. None of this work is just about the ritual. All this spiritual work is about you, your mindset, how you deal with things, how to feel more empowered (and I’m not talking about ego) and how to feel safe in your world. So if there is a cord you want to cut, well, I say more power to you, cut it!

Why Cord Cutting Rituals Are Important

Cord cutting rituals are important because they help you define your boundaries. As I stated above, all this work is about you getting to know yourself. Ritual helps you to grow closer to your soul. To discover what works for you and what doesn’t. It also gives you the space to stand in the power of your being. To align with your soul. It’s important to feel safe in this world. To know yourself inside and out. 

When I first started working as a medium, I had to cut cords after every session. I was susceptible to so much energy. Now that I have been working with my Guides every day for over 15 years, I don’t feel so vulnerable to other people and places. I feel I have the tools and I can live with confidence. 

Do this ritual. Get to know your Guides. Arm yourself with tools you love and you will feel safe to walk this world as an empath, creating beautiful relationships with the people you meet. I trust you are breathing a sigh of relief.
