You might notice that you take on the energy or emotions of others easily.
That you can walk into a room and feel everything.
When your attention is constantly outward -
focused on others, on work, on screens, on the noise around you -
you slowly disconnect from yourself.
And that disconnection is what can make you more sensitive to the energies and emotions around you.
The good news is you don’t always need big rituals, boundaries, or sage to protect your energy (though there’s a time and place for those).
Sometimes, it’s as simple as your breath.
Just one minute.
A couple times a day.
Pause.
Close your eyes.
Bring your awareness to your breath.
Feel the inhale. Feel the exhale.
Notice the subtle movements coming from the body and movement of this energy.
As you’re breathing, remember: everything external doesn’t belong to you -
but this breath does.
These gentle movements in your body do.
Every time you breathe consciously like this,
you’re reclaiming your energy.
You’re resetting your system.
And that is powerful.
