Egg Cleansing

A simple, yet very powerful method of facilitating healing in the luminous energy field and the physical body is the process of Egg Cleansing. Mesoamerican shamans (curanderos or curanderas) as well as those from other parts of the world have used this ancient method to help clear and heal individuals.

In this method of cleansing, the shaman runs a raw egg, still in its shell, over an individual's body. As the egg passes along the body, it absorbs energetic toxins from the person's energy field, leaving them feeling physically lighter, happier and more balanced.

Some curanderos additionally employ catholic elements, such as holy water and saint pictures. The use of roman catholic prayers and other borrowings and lendings are often found alongside native religious elements : it's also a folk religion of southern Italia, a combination of roman catholic tradition and ancient southern italian folk magic.
