Empath Protection from Negative Energy

Hey Folks, Wow!! Has this been a interesting month of happenings... Lot's of letting go of old ways,  opening to a whole new world of possibility. Beautiful and Perfect! I am soooo Grateful!!!

Well, Let's get to it. This months topic is Protection, protection from negative energy. As an empath, in my experience, we feel other peoples energy regardless of whether it is negative or positive, especially when in a public place. For our purposes here let's focus on the negative, simply because if you are going to protect yourself you need to understand what the negative energy is so that you can recognize it.

What is Negative Energy? Negative energy is fear, stress, grief, worry, hate, shame, guilt, anger, etc... As empaths we feel these emotions radiating from other people around us, sometimes to the point of literally becoming the emotion we are are feeling, therefore losing ourselves and becoming a person we are not. This energy you are picking up on is not yours and you can protect yourself from it. The trick is to "Not Attach to IT" Acknowledge it and recognize it, just don't attach, it is Not yours. "Let others own their own feelings". There are a couple ways that I like to use to prevent attachment to an others energy.

The first is what I call "volume knobs" - I love this one and it works great for me. Imagine everyone including yourself has a volume knob on their chest. What you do is when you feel their energy "turn them down". Never turn yours down, simply put you don't want to shut yourself off this would take away your ability to notice if your are being affected by someone and it would shut down your energy flow and that is not good for you. On the flip side, turning someone else down doesn't hurt them.

The second way I use is to surround myself with a golden ball. I have found in my experience that golden light protects me well from others energy especially in places where there are a lot of people and I can't "turn everyone down". You can use different colors as well, some use violet or electric violet, and that works well for them. There is no one better color, there is only what works for you. I recommend experimenting with different colors till you find the one that works best. How I surround myself. I start with a small ball around my heart and place the intention I want it to carry and then consciously grow it until it surrounds me. I like to think of it as protecting my personal space which is about 3 ft around me.
Sometimes I even use them both in conjunction with each other to get a real powerful effect.

Namaste'

Hope these help, Love, Light and Blessings to All
