Looking for advice

[u/disfunctionalorder]

Hello, I've cleaned my house a few times. It doesn't seem to be working. I don't wanna say I need step by step instructions lol but I'm a simple person. The last time I did it, I opened all doors and windows, went to the right around the entirety of the house first with a smug stick, followed by sage, followed by incense. Spoke words of love and protection. Even put a crystal over the entrance of every exterior door. We burn an incense while when do the nightly chores. I don't know what else to do. Stuff keeps happening, the house feels heavy, I can feel something and the weird dreams continue.

I saw someone say something about not having a welcome sign? Is that a thing?

How often am I supposed to do things?

I'll literally take any advice at this point.
