First things first, let’s identify…

What is a soul tie?

In simple words, most would people identify a soul tie as a magnet/unity/spiritual connection between two people. According to Mindbodygreen.com, A soul tie is a connection with someone deeply embedded into your soul. A third definition is an emotional/spiritual bond that can make it hard to separate from another being.

Although, the most popular soul tie that people are aware of is the physical soul tie that stems from sexual intercourse. What people don’t know is that there can be platonic ones as well. There are healthy soul ties, and then there are unhealthy soul ties. Ever wonder why you can’t step away from someone? When someone you know is toxic and you know you should end it, but can’t seem to do it? It’s most likely is a soul tie.

Remember…when God and/or the Universe doesn’t want you with someone, your souls will never be at peace together.

Different Types of soul ties & How they are formed

You have what is defined as Godly soul ties and Ungodly soul ties…

• Godly: A connection in the spiritual realm that brings beneficial consequences. Stemming from biological, sexual/physical touch (Ex: parent & child and/or husband & wife).

• Ungodly: A soul tie that goes against God’s plan, usually brought on by demons (Ex: Sex outside of marriage and/or toxic situations).

You don’t have to be religious to determine which of these are healthy versus unhealthy.

• Physical: As humans, we crave physical touch whether it be a sexual act or a simple hug, which can create and bond and also keep you bonded with a person.
• Emotional: Sharing feelings, experiences, and going through ups and downs with someone can really strengthen a bond and also create a tie. This explains why it may be hard to cut ties with someone you share an emotional soul tie with.
• Spiritual: Since we are spiritual beings, this soul tie usually forms when you have a spiritual or emotional relationship with someone, it transforms into something deeper/powerful creating that spiritual soul tie.
• Social: This usually forms through settings of social interactions, usually with friends or coworkers.
• Permanent soul ties: When two souls merge without the agreement of each other. Usually, they are aware of it and deal with this soul tie on a more conscious level.

Key factor: You can have soul ties with multiple people who also aren’t your soulmate.

Different types of soul ties: Healthy vs Unhealthy Soul ties

Although I want badly to say “you’ll know” when most people ask the difference between a healthy soul tie vs an unhealthy one, I’m going to list the main points to help differentiate between one another below:

You’ll know its an unHealthy soul tie when:

• You want to leave, but can’t…
• You’re beginning to lose yourself…
• The energy is off…
• You feel constant negative emotions…
• The connection is draining…

You’ll know its a healthy soul tie when:

• You feel connected on a deeper level
• They feel familiar/comfortable
• They complete you/you feel like yourself around them
• You get positive benefits vs negative from being around them
• You crave their presence/constantly want to be around them

How can I Break a soul tie?

Although we identify the different types of soul ties, we can acknowledge that losing or trying to get rid of a connection whether you’re trying to break a soul tie or you’re trying to heal, isn’t easy. The first step would be to acknowledge the soul tie, then take proper action. Here are a few ways to break those unwanted soul ties or the ones that are no longer serving you.

• Meditate – release this person through the art of meditation
• Spirit work – Talk to the universe or spirit guides about this person and let them know that you want to get rid of this connection.
• Talk to the person’s soul – Tell the person that the connection is going to end, they might not hear it but their soul will.

Of course, this stuff won’t work if you’re not willing to do the work. You can’t just wish the connection away and if you truly want to get rid of this soul tie, you must also back up anything that you ask the universe for.

Attraction is flesh, connection is soul.
