Energetic Boundaries for Empaths
Being an empath or highly intuitive person comes with unique challenges and blessings. It also requires a higher level of energetic boundaries, not allowing others’ energies to dilute your own.
For the feelers, healers, and sensitive people, sometimes we become so overwhelmed with energies that it is hard to distinguish what is yours and not yours. It’s like you are a magnet to everyone’s energy around you.
What doesn’t help is absorbing and digesting others’ energy as a form of “helping” them.
When we do this, it is disempowering for both people – it drains you as the absorber/digester, and it says to them, “I don’t believe you are strong enough to deal with the cards you are dealt.”
We all have our own karma, and we must keep our emotional boundaries clear, know what is ours and what isn’t, and most importantly, create a sacred union within and with the universe.
Healthy boundaries are a delicate balance of structure and flow directly tied to your self-worth and intuition.
