I ordered a large Space Clearing bell (previously called an Empress bell) after I read information on your website about your products. I also ordered three harmony balls and the purple colorizer. I haven't had time to do the Space Clearing ceremony yet but clearly your products are filled with beautifuly energy. They literally seem to sparkle with love. I read your book on Space Clearing after I ordered the products, which describes using two different bells. Do I need to buy the small space clearing bell, too, or is the large bell alone enough?
Thanks!

Karen's reply:
Large bells are suitable for Space Clearing all types of rooms.
Space Clearing bells are smaller and are suitable for small rooms.
So if you already have a large Space Clearing bell, that's all you need.
Is there something I can substitute instead of incense? I haven't tried the brands you recommend in your book but I usually have a very allergic reaction to such things.

Karen's reply:
I have tried perehaps a thousand different brands of incense and the best I have ever found for Space Clearing are the Nitiraj Nagchampa sticks and the Basilica incense granules that I recommend in my book. These are extremely pure and even people who are normally allergic to incense are surprised to find that they have no adverse reaction to them at all. If you have difficulty finding them locally you can purchase them by mail order through the online stores on this website.
If you still feel you would rather not even give it a try then simply leave the incense out. Using it really helps to lift an atmosphere when Space Clearing and will help you get much better results, but it would be counter-productive to use it makes you feel unwell.
Definitely not! Most incenses are made from terrible synthetic products that contain carcinogens. Rather than helping to raise the atmosphere of a space they drag it down.
See the next question about Incense Subsitutes for details of the brands I recommend for Space Clearing work.
Why the need to use such expensive space clearing paraphernelia?
I guess poor people are shut out again - such hypocrisy - shame on this money making scheme for the rich!

I agree that the Space Clearing products are quite expensive, but anything of good quality is. In all the years I have been selling Space Clearing equipment, I have only received a handful of emails complaining about the price and literally thousands of thank you's from people who are grateful the products are available in the world and have been absolutely delighted by them. I offer a full money-back guarantee to anyone who is not 100% satisfied.
The fact is that it is just not possible to space clear effectively with sub-standard equipment. It simply doesn't work. So I had to make a decision when I first started selling products whether to sell things that really do the job, or whether to sell things that were cheap but useless. In all integrity, I had to choose the former. I would no doubt have sold a lot more if I had chosen to sell cheap stuff but that's not what I'm about.
As to your concerns about money-making, my products business provides jobs for approximately 40 Balinese people who would otherwise be unemployed. It has enabled them to support their families through all the economic crises that have affected Bali in recent years. 20% of the sale price of goods sold in Bali goes direct to Balinese charities or educational projects, and the rest is ploughed back into developing Space Clearing in some way or another. I live very modestly with very low personal expenses and do not take an income from the product sales at all.
Space Clearing bells are designed to last a lifetime and I sincerely hope that one day in the not too distant future you'll be able to afford one. It's a wonderful investment for anyone engaged in a spiritual journey, so that you can maintain the energies of your home in such a way that it will help you rather than hold you back.
I believe I'm still benefiting from the Space Clearing you did of my space 10 months ago. I would, however, like to re-energize the space by re-ringing the harmony balls. Do I need to re-imprint the same thoughts from our session? I'd like to observe/honor your clearing practice. If I want to imprint new 'thoughts' into the balls is there a special ceremony? Do I first need to clear the balls or do they sort of clear themselves?

Karen's reply:
You can infuse your harmony ball at any time with the same or different frequencies and then shake them out into the space. The technique for doing this is described in my book, Creating Sacred Space with Feng Shui. There is no need to clear the harmony ball first.
However the effects of Space Clearing diminish over time as new residues of energy build up in a place, so it is recommended that you do a complete Space Clearing ceremony at least once a year to maintain your space in optimum condition. To do this you would follow the 21 steps in my book or, better still, the more up-to-date steps I teach at my Space Clearing workshop if you have attended it. I am currently revising my book to include all the new updates and it will be published in 2007.
My question is why do you need to use different harmony balls for each place you space clear? Is it not possible to cleanse them between houses? I was wondering if this just applies to people who are Space Clearing only their own homes and possibly friend's/family's homes. Do you personally (and the people you professionally train) use different harmony balls for each home? I presume the answer is no and that you must have a deep cleansing technique otherwise you would be surrounded by mountains of them!

Karen's reply:
The answer to this question becomes abundantly clear after doing the Space Clearing ceremony.
After infusing a harmony ball with all their highest aspirations and using it to consecrate their home to higher frequencies, no-one ever wants to part with it. So included in the cost of a professional consultation is the price of a new harmony ball that the person or family keeps and can use again and again, whenever it is necessary to repeat the Space Clearing for themselves. No-one ever wants to use a second-hand harmony ball that someone else has already infused with their own personal frequencies.
If you are Space Clearing for a friend or relative you will therefore need a new harmony ball for each ceremony and leave it with them afterwards so that they can do their own repeat ceremonies when necessary. Sometimes individual family members each prefer to have their own harmony ball rather than mixing their frequencies in a communal one.
