Protect Your Energy Field

Your Higher Self wants to help you identify the hidden aspects within you that are vulnerable to energy predators. Its aim is to help you build, reinforce and strengthen the parts of your identity that are not fully formed.

You are highly sensitive to the energy of others. This is a powerful gift. You are empathic, compassionate and create connection. You serve others through your ability to deeply connect with who they are, where they are, and what they need. However, because your identity is underdeveloped your connection with others crosses into hypersensitivity leaving you vulnerable to feeling drained, tired and emotionally erratic. You vacillate between anger and sadness, emptiness and fear. You might also experience a lack of mental clarity or become light-headed and dizzy. Your Higher Self is telling you it’s time to look within.

Think of a person’s energy field as play dough that can be carved and moulded. A sensitive being attunes to other people’s thoughts and feelings. Their energy field temporarily moulds to what or who is in front of them to create a connection. Once the event is over the energy field ordinarily unlinks.
A hypersensitive being is so empathic and adaptable they cannot distin-guish between themselves and the other person. When they mould they adopt the other person’s feelings as their own – and these feelings reflect what you most need to address in your emotional life. Ultimately, like meets like.

In each of the following 1–4 scenarios described your energy has bonded to emotional energy that is the same as yours. This energy is fuelled by undeveloped and insecure parts hidden from consciousness, which are vulnerable to the whims of outside predators in the form of thoughts and other energetic entities. The area of your energy field, which is either unprotected or too pliable to these entities, can be detected like an allergic reaction. Disempowered feelings are like an allergic response to your environment. They remain unconscious until you bravely search and uncover these vulnerable places in your psyche (which might have their roots inunresolved trauma). The place to start is by asking: What thoughts and feelings are you hiding from?

Examine the scenarios below to identify the vulnerable aspects hidden within.

 1.    Individuation
Individuation is the formation of our own identity as a separate self from our caregivers. As a normal part of growth and development children learn that they are separate individuals because they think and feel differently from others. This differentiation helps in developing healthy boundaries that create a map for each individual.
For the hypersensitive, such as yourself, this process was disrupted. You were not able as a child to establish the secure boundaries that would enable you to unlink from other people’s thoughts and feelings. As a result, your core self is lacking in a solid identity structure and your energy is like water – formless until it is given a form. When you pour water into a cup, it takes the shape of a cup. When you pour water onto the floor, it spreads in every direction. Your energy field is constantly searching for a container, a core structure: a place to call home. Since you ask other people to create the structure of your world you never feel safe. You are easily swayed by the opinions of others; are unable to make choices or decisions; and express everyone else’s values but your own. You also find it difficult to ask for what you want, to say ‘no’ to others, or tell people when they have upset you.

 2.    Unconscious agreements
You have agreed subconsciously to help others by absorbing their fears through karmic interaction and rebalancing or by taking on learned behavioural patterns taught to you by caregivers. Whether you are learning compassion through karma or have been taught that to be a good person you must take responsibility for others, you are like a vacuum cleaner hoovering up other people’s energy for them, taking on responsibilities that are not yours.

3.    Avoidance
You engage in a cycle of absorbing and processing all of the negative emotions such as fear, confusion and anger from the people around you. Being a human sponge has given you permission to focus on the drama of feeling bad and acts as a distraction from addressing your own fears around your life purpose, your abilities and your future.

4. Disconnection from your truth
By saying ‘yes’ when you want to say ‘no’, forgiving someone when you know at your core that you haven’t, keeping the peace and remaining silent when you know exactly what you want to say, you will eventually experience a disconnection from your Source. Unresolved past trauma may be causing you to dissociate.
The key to protecting your energy field is to build your core identity. You can do this by getting clarity around your purpose, mission, values, goals, abilities, likes, dislikes, and so on. Once you have this clarity, committing and trusting in these core identifiers of your unique self will build the emotional strength to set boundaries. Over time you will begin to understand your strengths and your weaknesses. You will know how to be true to yourself and will be able to live under your own direction. You will experience intimate relationships because you will be in relationship to yourself. Now is the time to take the step towards the freedom to be you. Use the Tuning In process to discover all the unprotected parts of yourself.

Live consciously, live in the light, live from within you.
