ENERGY PROTECTION: Why I don’t use it
When I first was diving into the spiritual world, I was bombarded with people telling me I had to “protect myself.” Draw a big bubble of aura protection around me. Don’t let the negative people get me! If I have a negative person around me, envision my bubble like a shield and reflect that ISH back to them!
But I just couldn’t. To be honest, it never felt right.
My biggest question was, “If I was shielding the bad, wouldn’t I be shielding the good?” Energy doesn’t know good verses bad. Energy just is and if that’s the case, how could I determine what I wanted and didn’t want all day? Nope. I couldn’t. That was too time consuming!
So, I just let it go. I didn’t protect myself. I let myself be vulnerable.
This was true for my energy sessions too. I would call on my gatekeeper (a person who stands at the door so to speak) to only let through spirits of the light. This means that anyone who crossed over who went into the light could come through in a session. If the person did not walk into the light and was considered “earthbound spirit” I didn’t let them in. But this backfired on me as well.
Many people who have passed away, didn’t actually walk into the light. So I was missing messages from loved ones. People who died who actually needed some assistance. Clients who really missed their loved ones and their loved ones choose to stay earth bound to be with them. Well, this made my session not as healing as I wanted them to be. If the client couldn’t talk to their deceased mother who decided not to cross over because they didn’t want to leave this plane, I couldn’t reach them. I made instructions specifically not to let them in so they couldn’t.
So again, I decided to ask my gatekeeper to line up the spirits so I could address them one by one in a session instead of sifting through their energetic vibration. When I started doing this, I was vulnerable. In fact, some crazy stuff has happened, but guess what, I’m stronger with my HIGH VIBE ANGEL team now more than ever.
That’s right. In sessions, I found myself getting closer to my angel team because I let my guard down. I know that I’m protected and safe. So when a BIG shadow filled my wall and my client, who doesn’t see spirits said, “What is that?!” I ignored it and kept working on my client. He was just as safe as I was!
The reality is that you are not separate from anything. We are all connected.
There is a part of you that may actually be connected to that person you truly dislike. It could even be part of your shadow self.
When I see clients, I’m looking at their energy cords (click here to learn more about what energy cords are) and through these cords are attachments. Attachments to good things and also their pain points. If the boogy man comes into one of my session through my client, it’s because there needs to be something healed inside of them. There’s an energy cord that lies on the same frequency within their subconscious or conscious that needs to be cleared. I don’t start by clearing the being, I go for healing the client. And still, I’m safe and sound.
WHAT ABOUT NEGATIVE NANCY?
In our everyday lives, we come across people who have a lower vibration than us. People called, “negative nancy’s” who are always negative and low vibe. How do I protect myself from that?
Again, I don’t. If I shield myself from a person who is suffering (which they are on the inside) I may not be giving myself the opportunity to learn something about myself. What is the vibration that is presented to me? Is it anger? Am I getting irritated at a person who never takes responsibility for themselves? Well, do I take responsibility for myself?
There are many different reasons why this person is showing up in your life:
- Past Life Interaction
- Karmic Ties
- Lesson to learn about yourself (like attracts like!)
- And sometimes it shows up so that YOU make a move.
When you have exhausted every possibility of changing yourself, helping them, shielding yourself and are still feeling drained, you are always reminded that you have the opportunity of FREE WILL. When I get stuck on a situation, I like to take a peak into the Akashic Records to assist me.
But do I shield against the people who lack the most love? No! I send them LOVE! I pray for them. I ask that they see the light inside of them. I remind them who they are. They are a being of love. We all are.
So in a nutshell, do I shield? No. I know that I’m supported. When I am faced with difficult situations, I ask, how can I grow.
LIKE ATTRACTS LIKE
It’s the golden rule. If there’s an area in your life that you feel less than stellar, than look at it and start to heal yourself first.
LOOK AT YOUR BELIEF SYSTEM
What you believe is energetically imprinted in your mind and body. If you think “Nancy’s” energy is going to get you, you are giving over the power that she can. If you think “Nancy’s” energy is really low, but that’s not my energy, then it is easier to let go. What you believe is true for you.
A METHOD THAT I FIND WORKS WELL:
Let’s say you really do feel drained after you speak with someone. Instead of blocking the energy flow, try calling your energy back. (Here is an article on how to do it).
You leave your energy with people, places and events throughout the day. When you call it back to you, it’s yours. Let go of theirs, call in yours.
AND IF YOU STILL FEEL YOU REALLY NEED PROTECTION…
I’m not judgey! Then protect yourself! But I also highly encourage you to dive into the reason behind the WHY of your action. Look deeper and you may discover something about yourself that you didn’t know before. Love is love. The foundation of our being. Our job is to discover why we think we are separate from that.
