InEnergy protection is one of the most crucial elements to our spirituality.  This is why some of us have a hard time in crowded places and why when we are certain people we seem to have zero energy after we are no longer around that person.  Read some more to learn how you can best protect yourself, your energy and those you love. 

Why is Energy Protection Needed?

There are several reasons why a spiritualist needs to protect their energy.  Not only does walking into rooms and being around people affect our own mood by taking over other’s emotions, but also there are people who try to take our energy (energy vampires).  Energy vampires are people who unconsciously or consciously drain you to fuel their own tank.  

Why would someone consciously take your energy?  It is my belief that in all things there is light and dark and unfortunately some people walk on the dark side.  Some people enjoy the dark side and need the energy for whatever that may be.  Whether it is money, fame, or just energy in general. It is hard to protect against everything bad that comes our way, but you will find below a list of ways to help you with keeping your energy to you.  

Before You Begin Your Day

This is an important 3 part step that I do every morning while I am brushing my teeth that helps me with my energy protection.  I have it written with a dry erase marker on my mirror for my partner and I.  

1st Step: Protective White Light

Ask the Universe to surround you with a protective white light.  Imagine this light going in through your crown chakra and filling up your entire body while pushing out any negative energy.  Once your body is full of this white light, imagine the excess coming out of your skin to protect around you. So in the end your entire body and the area around your body will have a bright white light.  You can also do this for your house and your vehicle for protection.

2nd Step: Ground Yourself

Imagine that tree roots are coming from the bottom of your feet and going into the ground.  Imagine them spreading like real tree roots going down and out.  Then imagine another root coming from your tailbone down.  Some people imagine the roots reaching the center of the earth and bringing back the orange yellow lava back to the physical you and all the way up.  For me, the best way is that I first stomp my left foot and imagine the roots growing down and then I stomp the right foot and imagine the roots growing down.  From there, I already feel myself steady but with a little sway and then when I do the tail bone I feel fully supported.

3rd: Shield Yourself

Imagine putting a coat of armor over your chest and then securing it into place.  This protects your back and also your heart and solar plexus chakras.  Some people imagine belts, but I don’t feel it covers as much area as it should.  

Do this every morning and anytime you need an extra oomph.  Over time you will notice your anxiety starts to decrease and any other emotions you may be taking from others.  These 3 items was something I learned from Pat Longo’s Book: The Gifts Beneath Your Anxiety (Click Here to purchase, Click Here for my book review).  As she stated, some people felt instant relief and others it may take awhile.  Mine took a couple of weeks to fully feel the effects.

Our Day to Day Biggest Issue With Energy Protection:

Setting Boundaries.  

You might not think setting boundaries in your day to day is a form of protecting your energy, but it is a HUGE part of it.  If you cannot say “no” when you want to then you are giving away your energy to what you do no want.

It is very hard to want to say “yes” to everything. You are not responsible for healing everyone. It’s not selfish to protect your peace, it’s essential.

Tips for Stronger Boundaries:

• Practice saying “no” without guilt. “No” is a complete sentence and DOES NOT require an explanation. This was the hardest boundary for me to learn and still have to constantly work at saying “no” and not having to give an explanation especially with family.
• Limit time with toxic or draining people as much as possible.
• Use protective affirmations like, “I choose who and what I allow into my space.”
• Create a sacred, energetically clear space at home where you can retreat and recharge.

Final Thoughts On Energy Protection

Energy protection for empaths isn’t just about shielding, it’s about empowerment. It’s about knowing that you can walk through this world with an open heart and strong boundaries. With daily rituals, spiritual support, and intentional practices, you can remain connected without being consumed.

So the next time you feel drained after a social interaction or overwhelmed by the world’s energy, remember: you have the tools to protect your spirit, honor your sensitivity, and shine your light. Because your light is needed. And when it’s well-protected, it can illuminate even the darkest corners of the world.
