5 Reasons to Protect Your Energy As a Healer, Empath, or Sensitive Soul

Are You Giving Your Energy Away? 5 Reasons to Protect Your Energy as a Healer, Empath, or Sensitive Soul

For as long as I can remember, I’ve been highly sensitive. But when I started training as an angel healer, channel, and medium, I found my sensitivity increased even more. The more I worked with clients professionally, the more I noticed that I was becoming drained, tired, and even anxious, feeling as though I was absorbing their pain, fears, and emotions.

I was doing basic energy protection techniques at the time, but it wasn’t enough. I reached a point where I felt I couldn’t continue in this way. That’s when I asked the angels for guidance. In meditation, I discovered why I was taking on so much of my clients’ energy and why my own life force seemed to be draining away. I also realized that I needed more advanced techniques, as a practitioner who was highly sensitive and open to the energy of others.

These discoveries completely changed my life. The techniques I began using were so effective that I wrote an entire book about them: Loving Your Sensitive Self.(available on Amazon)  When I started practicing these methods consistently, I was amazed at the results. Not only did I stop absorbing my clients’ energy, but I also stopped giving away my own energy. I no longer felt depleted, and to my surprise, other areas of my life improved as well—more clients, increased income, and a renewed sense of purpose.

Why Protecting Your Energy Matters—Especially Now

If you’re a healer, empath, sensitive person, or spiritual practitioner, energy protection is crucial for your wellbeing. In fact, it’s more important now than ever. Many people believe that to help or heal others, they must give away their energy or take on others’ pain. This misconception can actually prevent people from becoming healers, as they fear it will drain them. But here’s the truth: healing doesn’t come from your personal energy; it comes from Divine energy. Your job is to channel, not deplete yourself.

Here are 5 reasons why energy protection is essential:

---

1. It Shields You from Negative Energies

Without proper protection, negative energies, stress, and other people’s fears can attach to you and lower your vibration. This leaves you feeling drained, anxious, or overwhelmed, making it harder to stay grounded and focused in your work.

2. You Stay in Control of Your Own Energy

When you practice energy protection, you maintain control over your own vibration and experience. You don’t need to spend excessive time isolating or recovering from energy overloads, because you’re not letting external energies deplete you.

3. It Keeps Your Intuition and Healing Connection Clear

Keeping your energy field clear allows your intuitive and healing abilities to stay sharp and accurate. Unprotected energy can become muddied by ego, doubts, or interference from outside forces, but with proper protection, you remain connected to Divine guidance.

4. It Enhances Manifestation and Abundance!

When you take on other people’s energy, their vibration and karma can interfere with your own manifestations. Over-giving or allowing your energy to leak means you’re bypassing your own ability to attract what you need. When you protect your energy, you become a magnet for what is meant for you—whether that’s clients, opportunities, or abundance.

5. It Prevents Energy Leaks

Leaking energy leads to burnout. You feel depleted, tired, and lacking in essential areas like love, support, money, or joy. But when you protect your energy and clear your field of other people’s “stuff,” you become more magnetic to your own desires. Synchronicities, income, and clients flow to you naturally because you’re no longer giving everything away. (and you aren’t subconsciously blocking them due to fear of being drained)

A Simple Energy Protection Technique with Archangel Michael

One of the most powerful ways to protect your energy is by calling on Archangel Michael. He is the protector angel and can help you create a shield around yourself to keep your energy intact.

Here’s a simple prayer and technique to shield your energy:

1. Invoke Archangel Michael and visualize his bright blue light surrounding you. Imagine a strong, impenetrable shield forming around your aura.
2. Say this prayer:
   “Archangel Michael, please protect my energy today. Let my energy stay with me, and may I help others through the Divine energy, not by giving away my own life force. May the energy anyone releases in my presence today be immediately taken to the light and not stay in my energy or space. Surround me in your blue light and shield me from any negative or draining energies. Thank you. Amen”
3. Visualize his shield protecting you throughout the day, especially when working with clients, interacting with others, or in any potentially draining situations.

This prayer is simple but effective. When used regularly, it will help you maintain your energy levels, avoid burnout, and protect yourself from taking on the emotions or pain of others.
