What Is Cord Cutting?

Cutting cords is the process of severing toxic connections that keep you energetically tied to another person. Negative cords can be formed with anyone, even people you love. Here are some examples of cords you may want to cut:

• people you want completely out of your life.
• loved ones who create drama or drain you.
• those in your life who are jealous or harbor ill will towards you.

Cord cutting is a way to set energetic boundaries for yourself.

How can you determine if you have an energy connection with someone that requires severing? Keep an eye out for the following indicators:

• They consistently drain you emotionally.
• Thoughts of them coincide with unexpected contact or them crossing your mind for no apparent reason.
• You experience a sense of fear or the need to avoid them.

Identifying the necessity to cut energetic cords with people you are familiar with is usually straightforward. However, it's also possible to unintentionally accumulate cords without realizing it.

Fortunately, pinpointing their origin is not crucial for cord cutting; it's primarily about setting intentions. Focusing on cleansing any negative connections is sufficient to facilitate cord cutting, even if you're unaware of their specific sources.

How to Cut Cords 

You'll need:

A comfortable and uninterrupted space

Begin by relaxing and centering yourself. Once in a meditative state, conduct a thorough scan of your body with the aim of identifying any attachment cords. Where do you feel their presence? Can you perceive or sense the individuals on the other ends? If not, that's completely fine. Visualize these cords being lovingly severed, with one half returning to you for healing and the other half returning to the other person, also for their healing.

After you're done with this ritual, take a shower to center and ground yourself. 

How to Confirm the Success of Cord Cutting:

After cutting energy cords, you'll no longer perceive the flow of energy between you and the other person. In other words, thoughts of them will become less frequent, and when they do occur, there won't be any emotional attachment to those thoughts. Achieving this state indicates that you've fully reclaimed your power and freedom.

At times, attachment cords can be deeply rooted, so it's normal to repeat these rituals more than once. With each repetition, set your intention to reclaim your energy, and you'll make consistent progress.
