As we move through the next several months, it’s more important than ever to protect your energy. The energetic climate around us is shifting — emotions are heightened, the collective is releasing old wounds, and many are unconsciously seeking balance through others. This makes it essential to stay grounded, centered, and intentional with what you allow into your personal energetic field.

1. Grounding Your Energy

Grounding anchors your spirit into the present moment and helps release excess energy that doesn’t belong to you.

• How to do it:
  • Step outside barefoot and connect your feet to the earth. Visualize roots extending deep into the soil, releasing stress and drawing up stability.
  • Take slow, deep breaths. Inhale light, exhale tension.
  • Hold a grounding crystal such as smoky quartz, hematite, or black tourmaline and imagine it absorbing scattered energy.
• When to use it: Anytime you feel anxious, scattered, or emotionally heavy after interacting with others.

2. White/Golden Light Protection

Visualize a bright, radiant white or golden light surrounding your body like a shield of pure divine love. This is your energetic armor, filtering what comes in and out.

• How to do it:
  • Close your eyes, take a deep breath, and imagine the light expanding around you — above, below, and all around.
  • Intend that only energy aligned with love and truth may enter.
  • You can reinforce this throughout the day by silently saying, “I am surrounded by divine light and peace.”
• Tip: Refresh your light after intense conversations, crowds, or online interactions.

3. Setting Boundaries

Boundaries are not walls — they’re energetic agreements that preserve your well-being.

• How to do it:
  • Pay attention to how your body feels after being around others. If you feel drained, it’s a sign a boundary needs to be strengthened.
  • Practice saying “no” with love when something doesn’t align.
  • Limit exposure to draining media or conversations. Not everything requires your energy or response.

4. Returning Energy with Love

Throughout the day, we unconsciously pick up energetic residue from others — through conversations, text messages, emails, even thoughts or glances.

• How to do it:
  • At the end of the day, take a quiet moment.
  • Say aloud or in your mind:
    “I now return all energy that is not mine, back to its original source, cleansed and blessed with unconditional love. And I call all of my energy back to me — pure, whole, and restored.”
  • Visualize their energy leaving your field in soft waves of light while your own energy returns like gentle ribbons of golden light wrapping around you.

5. Being the Observer, Not the Holder

Protecting your energy doesn’t mean ignoring the world — it means not absorbing it.

• How to do it:
  • When you watch the news or scroll social media, take the stance of an observer.
  • Remind yourself: “This information exists, but it doesn’t define my reality.”
  • Breathe and release the emotion rather than holding it in your body.

By staying mindful of what you listen to, watch, and focus on, you preserve your light and clarity. Remember — your energy is sacred. Protecting it allows you to stay connected to your higher self, serve others from a place of strength, and move through life with grace and balance.
