Energy protection is often talked about with heaviness, rules, or even fear, but it doesn’t need to be that way. Real energetic support comes from steadiness, not defence. From choosing how you relate to the world around you, not from constantly fighting it off. The more connected you are to your own energy, the less you absorb from others. And the more steady your relationship with yourself becomes, the less you feel the need to block, shield, or retreat.
This episode centres around caring for your energy with clarity, gentleness, and consistency. Not through drama or avoidance, but through small practices that help you return to yourself with trust.

You don’t need to fear other people’s energy
Feeling drained after being around certain people doesn’t always mean you’ve picked up something negative. It often means your system is trying to process more than it’s used to. This can happen in places with strong emotional energy, like the shops, a wedding, or even just scrolling online. That doesn’t make you fragile. It makes you human.
You don’t have to be scared of what others are “carrying.” What matters is how well you’re tuned into yourself before, during, and after those moments. Most overwhelm comes not from what’s around you, but from losing connection with what’s within you.
This kind of energetic awareness isn’t about being on high alert. It’s about choosing where your energy goes, and when. It’s support, not fear.
The best protection is presence
Protecting your energy doesn’t require big rituals or complex routines. It often comes back to very small, simple moments of connection:
-
Placing your hand on your heart and taking three slow breaths
-
Saying your name out loud to bring yourself back to centre
-
Gently asking: Is this mine, or is this someone else’s?
If it’s not yours, you don’t have to push it away or send it back. Simply ask that it be transmuted by the universe. That’s it. No drama. No energetic battles. Just clarity, intention, and a soft return to self.
You can still connect deeply with others, clients, loved ones, communities, without merging with their energy. You’re allowed to witness without absorbing. That’s not disconnection. It’s discernment.
Let your boundaries be loving and clear
Boundaries don’t have to be hard lines or explanations. Sometimes, the most powerful boundary is a simple “no.” No is a full answer. You don’t have to justify why something doesn’t feel right. You don’t need to say yes just because you could. Energetic care includes what you agree to take on, not just what you push away.
Protection isn’t about building walls. It’s more like choosing when to open the window and when to gently close it. Not from fear, but from awareness. That means your system gets to breathe. You’re not on high alert all the time. You’re not trying to dodge what’s around you. You’re simply honouring your capacity and moving from steadiness.
Final reflections
Energy protection doesn’t have to come from fear. It doesn’t have to be a battle. It doesn’t even have to look like “protection” at all. What if it’s just care? What if it’s just presence?
The more you stay connected to your own energy, the less you take on from others unconsciously. That doesn’t mean you have to be perfect. It just means you’re learning to stay steady. To trust yourself. To know what’s yours and let the rest go with softness and love.
