A Vital Technique for all Empaths!
Posted by Helen Crosbie on 16th Nov 2018
In my last blog, The One Thing All Empaths Need to Know, I explained the importance of being able to ascertain the difference between your emotions and other peoples - here is the technique I mentioned to help keep you and other people's "stuff" separate!
Being an empath, sometimes if can be hard to know where you end and the next person begins, especially when it comes to people we care about, or that we spend time with every day.
Our auras pick up other people's emotions, feelings and thoughts so clearly that sometimes they get "stuck" in our energy field - and they don't belong there!
This can leave us feeling all sorts of feelings that are not our own, many of which are unpleasant or affect us in negative ways like sadness, depression, hopelessness, fear etc.
I've often found myself at the mercy of other people's embedded emotions so I really wanted to share this simple but powerful technique taught to me by my own wonderful and highly intuitive life coach, Jacqueline Fairbrass.
It's a technique called "columning your energy" and what it does it to put a giant energetic barrier up between you and the rest of the world. Any emotions or feelings that aren't emanating from you are immediately cut off and shut out.
How to Column your Energy
Find a quiet moment and sit in a straight backed chair or stand with your feet flat on the floor. (This is not a requirement for the technique to work, but can help if you're a beginner with this sort of exercise.)
Visualise yourself surrounded by a giant column of green light that completely surrounds you, cutting you off from everything and everyone else.
No one may enter your column, and nobody's energy can pass through it either. It's made of powerful healing energy from Archangel Raphael, and energy that only light beings like angels and creatures of pure love and light can cross through.
The column stretches up skyward above you and down through the floor or ground under you to infinity in both directions.
Feel yourself becoming calm, feeling aware of who you are, what you are actually feeling and notice yourself become still and your inner voice quieten down.
This is a very empowering technique which stills the mind and resets our emotions. It's calming, centering and a must if you are feeling overwhelmed with emotion or other people's problems.
You can do this as often as you feel necessary, and it's a great one to remember when you can't cope.
Column your energy to feel safe, secure and chilled.
Other people's emotions are not yours to feel or process - send them back where they belong.
You will be much more capable of helping them (if you choose to) when you're no longer overwhelmed or incapacitated by other people's feelings!
I really hope this technique helps you as much as it's helped me over the years.
