Energy, Trust and Balance

As I mentioned last week, your energy is a precious resource—treat it with care!

If you are sensitive to your energy levels and find yourself in situations where something doesn’t feel right, ask yourself: what or who have you been exposed to recently?

Think about who has access to you and your life lately, is there anyone new who you deem untrustworthy?

Have you been asked to do something that subconsciously you might feel quite uncomfortable about?

Are you surrounded by people who have an incredibly negative energetic pull that you are desperate to escape from?

It is reasonable to be a little cautious about anything that doesn’t feel right and highlight the circumstances that you find unnerving or unpleasant.

When it comes to the notion of oversharing or lack of privacy, we must be sure that we are making the right decision regarding what we share and who we share it with. Tuning into our energy can help us make the right decision and in turn also help us protect our energy in the long run. It can tell us who we should be spending time with, how we should be spending our time and who we should trust based on whether they make us feel light, safe, and content. Through avoiding the people or scenarios that make us feel like our energy has been drained by a parasite, we can preserve it.

At the risk of sounding conspiratorial, when it comes to the online world and digital spaces, it can feel like we are, more and more, being watched. I find that a huge part of protecting my own energy, personally, is through taking time to disconnect and spend time away from electronic devices. Though, whether we are being watched or not, keeping an eye on what we consume digitally speaking is likely much better for us than constantly ‘overindulging’. We can then find more time to do the things that we actually want to do, without our attention spans being devoured by a screen.

Of course, as with all things it is important to remain balanced. Although I would encourage people to protect their energy, I wouldn’t encourage them to be overprotective about it all the time. Sometimes we need to be vulnerable, or put ourselves outside of our comfort zones in order to grow. It is up to us to decide when something that, might feel uncomfortable at first, however may actually benefit us in the long run.

For most of us, as we go through life, we pick up on the situations we react positively to, and those that we react negatively to. I guess part of maturing as we age (yes this 6^th floor lol) is recognizing what we are open to and have time for, and what simply doesn’t work for us.

We learn where to set boundaries, and when to put ourselves out there.

This one life we have is a personal journey, and everyone will be open or closed to different experiences, which is why, at the end of the day, it is only something we can answer by ourselves.

Every morning brings a new opportunity to bounce back stronger and better than before. Embrace the day ahead and make the most of it.
