It can be hard to protect your energy especially if you are an empath or someone that is an HSP (highly sensitive person). These are people that often struggle with their emotions, and they can et upset or angry really easily because they are always picking up the emotions of others.

Everyone is surrounded by an energy field and those that are sensitive feel the energies more than other people. These are people that can even feel the emotions of others because they fire more brain mirror neurons than other people do and as they watch someone feel something, they feel the emotions as well. This can be good when the energy is good but when the energy is bad it can cause negative energy.

If you’re someone that has a hard time knowing if a feeling or an emotion is yours or someone else’s this can mean that you are picking up the energies of other people. It can be hard on your mental health if you are overly sensitive unless you learn how to release this energy.

How Can You Ground Yourself Around Other Energies?

Here are some things that you can do to ground yourself if you’re around other energies:

  • Be compassionate with yourself and know that what you’re feeling is normal. Identify the energy and see if it’s negative or positive. Take one of the negative thoughts that you have and say three positive things.
  • Take a walk in nature.
  • Meditate.
  • Ask for white light to surrounding you and deep breathe to let out the negative energy.
  • Use essential oils like Juniper oil.
  • Watch something online that is funny.
  • Imagine that you are cutting a cord between you and the negative energy.
  • Smudge your area.
  • Close your eyes and pay attention to your breathing.
  • Journal how you’re feeling.
  • Use white sage.
  • Listen to meditation music.
  • Call a friend.
  • Go for a walk.
  • Listen to peaceful music.
  • Picture a white light covering your whole body and refuse any negative energy.
  • Put your left hand over your heart and deep breathe.
  • Focus on what you love.
  • Spend time with positive people.
  • Do yoga poses.
  • Take on a project such as knitting or cooking.
  • Go outside and listen to the noises.
  • Put flowers in your bath.
  • Set intentions to have positive energy.
  • Visualize good and clear energy.
  • Focus on something uplifting.
  • Sing and pray.
  • Clean.
  • Spend some alone time being positive.
  • Wash your body while saying positive mantras.
  • Say the Ho’oponopono prayer.
  • Smudge your whole home.
  • Think about the things that you’re good at.
  • Think about things that give you peace and joy.
  • Take a bath using Epsom salts.
  • Exercise and eat healthily.
  • Volunteer your time.
  • Read a book.
  • Imagine a waterfall going through you getting rid of the negative energy.

Which of the things above make you feel joy in your heart when you think about doing them? It is a good idea to set your intentions and to do what it takes to make sure that your energies are strong and positive.

Stay balanced and grounded and do whatever works to get you there. If you’re sensitive or an empath, have compassion for yourself for what you’re feeling and don’t try to hide your feelings. When you feel calm and light, your energy is balanced, and you have gotten rid of energies that no longer serve you.
