When you start to open up your own Psychic gifts, a lot of the times you will notice your Empathic abilities heightened first. This means that you feel EVERYTHING. Could even include any negative energy that other people are carrying around, or spirits that sense that your more “awake”. It’s always best to protect yourself when possible. Whether it’s your day to day life, or if you’re trying to provide readings for other people. Here are a few quick ways to protect yourself!

When providing readings, it’s always best to “ground” yourself. I am sure that you have heard this many times before, but here is a quick technique to get you started.

Sitting with your hands face up in your lap, and your eyes closed, visualize yourself standing tall. You are a giant oak tree. Your feet are going to grow roots and dig deep into Mother Earth. The rest of you, your long body and head and arms continue to reach up and grow taller and taller until you are the tallest tree. You can see everything around you, feeling the breeze. Visualize the beautiful sun shining it’s rays down on you and into your crown chakra. Feel the warmth and allow this energy to go through you, down into the roots you have created.

Another way would be to utilize stones as a way to offer protection. Carrying it in your pocket, your bra, in your purse, under your pillow etc. I think you get the picture!
