Is your energy feeling off?
If you’ve been feeling heavy, foggy, disconnected, or just not yourself lately, it could be because you’re carrying energy that doesn’t belong to you. As a spiritual coach and Reiki Master, my dominant gift is clairsentience, the ability to feel what other people feel. It’s a beautiful gift, but one that’s taught me some very real lessons about protection and staying grounded.
When I don’t protect my energy, I absorb other people’s emotions, thoughts, and beliefs. That might sound subtle, but over time, it pulls me out of alignment with my own truth and intuition. I’ve even found myself taking on other people’s struggles, and without realizing it, living out pieces of their karma. That’s not mine to carry.
What happens when you absorb other people’s energy?
When you take on energy that’s not yours, you begin to veer off your own path. At first, it might feel like a minor detour. But soon, you start to experience situations that aren’t even rooted in your own story; health problems, financial blocks, relationship confusion, and delayed manifestations. You can literally start to create new karma from something that was never meant for you.
Your higher support and your guides will start sending you signposts: “Hey, you’re carrying something that’s not yours.” But if you’re not tuned in, those signs become louder and it can show up as confusion, exhaustion, and missed blessings.
And this doesn’t just apply to clairsentients. Everyone absorbs energy. Clairsentients just feel it more vividly. Even if you’re not highly sensitive, you might still notice something feels off. You just can’t explain why. That’s still energy and it still affects your manifestations, your health, and your peace.
Let’s be clear: This doesn’t mean isolating yourself.
Listen, this doesn’t mean you need to shut the world out. We need people. We need community. We need connection. But we also need to learn how to hold space for others without absorbing their energy. That’s the key. Life is going to bring hard things. People will go through struggles. So will you. That’s part of the human journey. The problem isn’t feeling for others.The problem is taking it on as your own and letting it derail your blessings and clarity.
All we’re doing is learning how to stay centered. How to stay connected to our intuition. How to walk alongside others without losing ourselves in the process. And over time, when you stick with this practice of energetic protection, something shifts. You become more intuitive. You know what to say and when to say it. You learn to inspire others without sacrificing yourself. You hold boundaries with love. And others will feel that and begin doing their own inner work too. When everyone’s working on themselves, everything feels lighter. There’s less stress. More harmony.
Tools to Realign and Protect Your Energy:
1. Pray up – Ask your higher support for protection and clarity.
2. Visualize a forcefield- Surround yourself in light that only allows in energy of the highest good.
3. Crystals & plants – Use black tourmaline, obsidian, or houseplants like rue or rosemary for protection.
4. Essential oils – Diffuse oils like frankincense, myrrh, lavender, or cedarwood.
5. Energy healing – Book a Reiki session or sit in a sauna to release heavy energy.
6. Move your body – Exercise, stretch, and breathe. Energy needs flow.
7. Talk to your therapist – Process what’s yours, and release what isn’t.
8. Do something joyful – Creativity and joy are magnetic for healing.
9. Meditate – Sit in silence and reconnect with your inner compass.
10. Be consistent – Protection is a daily practice, not a one-time fix.
You are not here to carry everything.You’re here to shine, to serve, and to stay rooted in your truth. When you protect your energy, you protect your purpose.
