5 Powerful Spiritual Practices To Protect Your Energy.
If you’re someone who feels everything… this one’s for you.
Maybe you walk into a room and instantly feel the vibe. Maybe you’ve had days where you feel drained for no obvious reason. Or maybe you find yourself taking on other people’s moods, energy, or even pain without meaning to.
Protecting your energy isn’t just a spiritual practice. It’s an act of self-respect.
Especially for empaths and highly sensitive souls, energy protection is essential to feeling grounded, centred, and whole. So here are 5 simple yet powerful ways to protect your energy and stop letting the chaos of the world mess with your peace:
Grounding
One of the most underrated practices, but it’s magic. Grounding reconnects you to your body, to the Earth, and to the present moment. And when you’re grounded, you’re harder to shake.
Try this: step outside and feel your bare feet on the Earth, or simply place your hand on your belly and take a deep, conscious breath. Let your body know: you’re safe here.
Energy Shielding
Yes, it’s a thing. And yes, it works.
Try visualising a bubble or shield of bright white light around you — a protective field that only allows love in and keeps the rest out. You can also cleanse your aura with smudging (ethically sourced palo santo, or incense), or with water (the ocean, a shower, even a bowl of saltwater with intention).
This isn’t just woo. It’s energetic hygiene.
Crystals
Not just pretty things to sit on your altar. Crystals can be powerful allies in energy protection.
Black tourmaline, obsidian, and smoky quartz are my ride-or-dies for keeping dense energy out. And my absolute fave? Tigers eye — especially when paired with clear quartz to amplify it. Keep them in your pocket, wear them, or meditate with them.
Spiritual Rituals
Sometimes we need to go deeper.
Here are some practices I use often:
Mantras or affirmations:
“I call my power and energy back to me. I release what’s not mine to carry.”
Cord cutting: Visualise releasing energy cords from people or situations that are draining you.
Calling on spirit guides: Ask for protection, guidance, and energetic support.
You are never alone.
Self-Care
Let’s be real.. we can’t always control the energy around us. But we can care for ourselves when it gets too much.
Boundaries. Rest. Nourishment. Journaling. Movement. Time offline. Tuning in. Listening to your body.
This is how we stay anchored when the world feels loud.
And the more you protect your energy, the more magnetic and grounded you become. You can move through life with clarity, presence, and power.
