THIS IS WHAT I USE TO RESTORE MY ENERGETIC BOUNDARIES

By Brooke Nielsen

​How’s your energy today? Are you feeling on top of the world or in need of a Energizer-powerpack? Do you ever wonder what factors in your life boost or drain your energy as an HSP?

I’ve been exploring energy with some of the wonderful folks who took my Intuitive Warrior Journey program. Recently, they sat down with me and shared first-hand about their experiences with energetic boundaries.
 
I learned SO much, and was blown away by what they shared and I thought you would be too.

Can you relate to any of these themes that emerged?

1. We are exhausted. Being a sponge that soaks up others' energies is utterly draining.
2. We feel in a bind: how do we have empathy without burning out and how do we have boundaries without feeling disconnected? Most people have felt like they’ve had to choose between one or the other: boundaries or empathy.
3. We feel confused about who we are. The energy from the outside world is so loud and distracting that it’s often hard to hold on to what WE think and feel.
4. Having permeable energetic boundaries has helped at times, and we’re a bit scared of losing that coping mechanism. Diffuse EBs can allow us to tune-in to the moods and needs of others, and if we grew up with any degree of chaos or unpredictability, that sixth sense may have helped keep us safe.​
5. We’re ready for a change. As one person shared, “I want to feel safe in myself and know that I can just be me.” We want to feel grounded, connected, and like we can turn some of our energy back towards ourselves.

 
What do you think? Can you relate?
 
I’m so excited to be working on an Energetic Boundary healing course to address all those needs. What are your energetic boundary questions? What do you hope to see/hear from me? (let me know in the comments)
 
While you’re waiting, here’s a simple energy shifting tool to help you navigate the holidays (Happy Hanukkah, btw!):
 
I call it, the Energetic Swiffer Duster:

At the end of each day, or after a draining experience, imagine dragging a swiffer from your head down to your toes, inside and outside of your body.
 
Imagine the duster picking up all the energy that doesn’t serve you or belong to you. Do this as many times as you need to to release the residue that isn’t yours.
 
This simple exercise is part of good energetic hygiene. Just like we need to brush our teeth daily, it’s a good idea to clean ourselves off in this way too.
 
If you give it a try, I’d love to hear your experience with it.​
