Energy Protection 101 for Beginners
3 Powerful Practices to Shield Your Energy Daily
Hello, my angels! Welcome to our sacred space—a sanctuary for energy transformation, soulful living, and divine feminine alignment. Today, we’re diving into a vital topic for empaths, highly sensitive individuals, and anyone seeking to live in alignment with their highest self: energy protection. If you’ve ever felt drained after social interactions or found yourself struggling to reclaim your energy, this post is for you.
Energy protection is not about isolation but about preserving your well-being and creating the life you truly desire. Let’s explore three transformative practices to help you shield your energy daily and maintain a high vibrational state.
Why Energy Protection Matters
As empaths, we often absorb the energies of others and our environment. This openness can leave us vulnerable to energy vampires, negative collective energies, and even our own lack of boundaries. I’ve been there—saying yes to everything, overextending myself, and feeling depleted. It took years of self-work to realise the power of setting energetic boundaries.
Energy protection allows us to fill our own cup first, ensuring that we are aligned with our higher selves and grounded in our purpose. Without it, we risk being derailed from our soul path. Here are my top three energy protection practices that have truly transformed my life.
1. Grounding
Grounding is the foundation of energy protection. This simple yet powerful practice connects you to the Earth's energy, stabilizing your lower chakras and anchoring you in the present moment.
How to Ground:
Find a quiet space where you can sit or stand comfortably.
Take a deep breath in, and as you exhale, imagine roots growing from the soles of your feet or your root chakra.
Visualize these roots extending deep into the Earth, passing through layers of soil, water, and crystals until they reach the Earth’s core.
On your next inhale, draw the Earth’s nourishing energy back up through your roots, into your lower chakras, and into your heart centre.
Repeat this process until you feel stable, energized, and connected.
Grounding is incredibly versatile. Whether you’re walking barefoot on grass, meditating, or using visualization, it’s a daily practice that brings balance and stability to your energy field.
2. Energy Bubble Visualization
Once grounded, the next step is to create a protective energy bubble. This practice shields you from negative energies while allowing positive, high-frequency vibrations to flow through.
How to Create an Energy Bubble:
Begin by grounding yourself, as described above.
Visualize a golden or electric blue bubble surrounding your entire body. For extra protection, you can layer the bubble with both colours.
Command your bubble to protect you. I like to say, “I command, from the knowing that I am God’s source energy, a triple-layered impenetrable shield of protection. Only energies of my highest good may enter, and all others must be sent to the Universal Mind to be transmuted into love and light.”
This practice not only protects your energy but also reinforces your connection to the divine source, empowering you to navigate your day with confidence and peace.
3. Cord Cutting
Cord cutting is essential for releasing energy ties with people, places, or situations that drain you. Whether it’s a past relationship, a toxic friendship, or a negative experience, energetic cords can linger and deplete your vitality.
How to Practice Cord Cutting:
Start by grounding and protecting your energy with the bubble visualization.
Sit in a meditative state and call upon your higher self, angels, or Archangel Michael to assist you.
Visualize the person or situation in front of you. Ask to see the energetic cords connecting you.
If you feel a pull in a specific chakra, such as the sacral, this indicates where the cord is attached.
Request your highest energy guides to sever the cord. As it is cut, visualize light filling the space where the cord was attached.
Bless the person or situation, sending them love and healing. Release them with gratitude for the lessons they brought into your life.
Cord cutting is a deeply healing practice. It ensures that any energy released is of a high-frequency nature, preventing the cord from being re-established. Be intentional and kind as you let go, ensuring you reclaim your power and energy.
Common Pitfalls and Misconceptions
One practice I strongly advise against is “return to sender” techniques. While they may seem appealing, they perpetuate a cycle of negativity and can attract karma back to you. Instead, send any negative energy to the Universe or God for transmutation. Bless those who send you harm, as this high-frequency act neutralizes their energy and elevates yours.
Energy vampires—individuals who drain your energy through constant negativity or victimhood—are another common challenge. Building strong energetic boundaries, as outlined above, ensures that their low vibrations do not affect your high-frequency state.
Building Your Daily Practice
Consistency is key to effective energy protection. Integrate grounding, energy bubble visualization, and cord cutting into your daily routine. These practices are non-negotiable for maintaining your energetic well-being.
Remember, energy protection isn’t about cutting yourself off from the world. It’s about preserving your vitality so you can show up fully for yourself and others. When you prioritize your energy, you’re better equipped to create the life of abundance, freedom, and joy you desire.
Final Thoughts
Protecting your energy is an act of self-love and empowerment. By grounding, shielding, and cutting cords, you take control of your energetic boundaries and reclaim your power. These practices have transformed my life, helping me move from a place of depletion to one of abundance and freedom.
