- As a new empathy everyone told me to find a CRYSTAL that will help me with all the different energies I am absorbing. Crystals help shield you from other people feeling and emotions. They can also help with releasing energy within you that’s not serving you. There are many crystals you can choose from and I feel like you really need to find something that speaks to you. If you are near a store that sells crystals I suggest you go inside to purchase this one. I use a blue calcite cystal and I love here. I’m so glad I purchased this in the store and not from online. I feel this one called out to me and it’s been one of my best crystal purchases to this day. If you’re not near a store that sells crystals you can always buy them online. Make sure you find a way of connecting with it so it can serve you to the highest
2. This next technique is one I really enjoy doing because I can usually see the effects of it immediately. SHIELDING is a foundational tool that all new empaths should practice regularly. Shielding puts up a protective barrier so outside energy won’t enter your protective space. For me shielding is about intention, confidence and visualization. What you see in your mind can be created in your reality. I visualize myself in a giant bubble and I slowly spread the bubble out to I distance that covers my personal boundary. When I first started doing this I could see how other people unknowingly responded to my shield and it changed the energy within the conversation immediately. Try this or a version of this that feels comfortable to you and let me know what change you see in the other person.
3 & 4. Empaths are usually good listeners because we can feel everything the other person is saying. As we are listening we are usually making eye contact and sending our energy into their personal space to feel their emotions. Being cognizant of this will help you with knowing when to break eye contact and when to keep your energy in your own space. This may sound %%%%% but I can assure you these are some things you should focus on. Looking away more often is something that can be done easily. Being aware of your own energy takes a little more time to process.
- Being aware of your own energy is probably the main tool that will help you as an empathy. The reason empaths know the feeling of a room before they enter it or as soon as they enter it is because they are sending their energy out to get a feel for the room/people. I believe it’s because we want to know if we are in a safe place or if we should put our guard up. I’m sure there are other reasons but this is probably one of the big ones. Once you are aware that you are sending your energy out you will learn to keep your energy within your own personal space. A technique I started using to control my energy is imagining I have wings that come out from my side. The bigger my wings are the further out my energy goes. When I realize I’m in someone else ‘s personal space I draw in my wings to the core part of my body to the smallest size as possible. Once I started doing this I became less caught up in other people’s emotions.
- Lastly, if don’t already have a good grounding technique you should find one that feels comfortable for you. This usually involve something coming from your feet going into the earth to help anchor yourself. I’m not going to list any specific techniques here because you have to find one what works for you. If you’ve have one that you love, and you want to share it please leave it in the comments. It may help someone else.
