Shielding Yourself from Energy Vampires

Today I want to talk about shielding yourself from energy vampires.  Ever felt emotionally drained after spending time with certain people? You might be dealing with an energy vampire. These individuals, whether they’re family, friends, or coworkers, can leave you feeling depleted on every level—emotionally, physically, mentally, and spiritually. Understanding how to recognize and protect yourself from these energy drainers is crucial for maintaining your vitality and well-being.

What Are Energy Vampires?

Energy vampires are people who drain others’ energies because they live in a state of victim consciousness. This mindset makes them feel disempowered, leading them to unconsciously attach themselves to another person’s energy field to feel better about themselves.

These attachments are formed through invisible cords, which connect the vampire to your energy body. While these cords aren’t visible to the naked eye, they can be perceived through psychic awareness. When energy vampires need a boost, they draw on your energy instead of using their own. These cords act like highways, running both ways, meaning you can also receive their energy—whether positive or negative.

Here’s how this can affect you:

• • If they have a headache, you might suddenly get one too.
  • If they’re feeling down, you might find yourself sinking into a similar mood.
  • If they’re angry, you may unexpectedly become irritable.

This energetic exchange can be highly detrimental to your health. The cords created by energy vampires prevent you from truly being yourself. It’s essential to sever these connections, and sometimes a spiritual purification is necessary for your well-being and for the other person’s growth.

Recognizing Energy Vampires

The first step in protecting yourself is recognizing the traits of energy vampires. Here are some common characteristics to watch for:

• • Constantly seeks reassurance and validation
  • Struggles with being alone
  • Drains your energy through nonstop talking
  • Relies on you to solve their problems
  • Blames you or makes you feel guilty
  • Puts you down or acts vindictively
  • Often unhappy or dissatisfied with life
  • Tries to control or manipulate you

These behaviors can leave you feeling exhausted, overwhelmed, and emotionally depleted. Identifying these traits in others (or even in yourself) is key to maintaining your energetic boundaries.

Signs You’re Being Psychically Attacked

How do you know if you’re being psychically attacked by an energy vampire? You may experience:

• • Dizziness
  • Loss of energy
  • Muscle tension
  • Mental confusion
  • Headaches
  • Chronic fatigue
  • Sleep disturbances
  • Irritability
  • Depressed mood
  • Physical illness
  • A shrinking or weakened aura

If you’re experiencing these symptoms, it could be a sign that an energy vampire is draining you. Unfortunately, many people aren’t aware of their energetic bodies and how they operate. By taking responsibility for your own energy and reclaiming your personal power, you can protect yourself from these attacks and improve your overall health.

How to Protect Yourself from Energy Vampires

So, how do you protect yourself? First, become aware of which individuals deplete your energy and limit your contact with them. However, avoiding their physical presence isn’t always enough. To fully protect yourself, you need to release any negative emotions you’re holding onto, such as anger, jealousy, or hurt.

Holding onto these emotions is like shackling yourself to a ball and chain, keeping you stuck in a state of distress. By releasing them, you free yourself and create space for peace and clarity. Remember, fear is the robber of peace—letting go of negative emotions brings freedom.

Maintaining harmony in your four energetic bodies—physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual—is crucial to staying protected. Any disharmony can create vulnerabilities, allowing darkness and confusion to enter.

Tools to Protect Your Energy

To empower yourself against energy vampires, consider using these techniques:

Cord Cutting

Cord cutting should be done daily and more frequently during stressful times. Even cords with loved ones can be draining if not maintained.

• • Take deep, cleansing breaths—in through the nose and out through the mouth. Call upon Spirit and your Spirit Guides, asking for assistance in cutting all cords attached to your being.
  • Visualize Spirit and your Guides’ positive energy swirling around you, severing all the cords. Know that no cord can remain intact, and they are returning to their source. When you feel the process is complete, thank Spirit and your Guides for their assistance. It is done.

Physical Purification

• • Burn relevant photographs or objects that hold memories of the person, place, or situation.
  • Write down all feelings of frustration, anger, hurt, or fear, and burn or bury the paper. Repeat as often as necessary.
  • Clear the clutter from your home. If you haven’t used something in six months, it’s time to let it go.
  • Clean and, if needed, redecorate your home. Bringing nature indoors can boost your energy.
  • Ensure no books or pictures in your home carry negative energy. Surround yourself with high-vibrational objects, spiritual books, uplifting images, plants, and fresh flowers.
  • Smudge with sage, cedar, and sweetgrass, invoking the help of Spirit, your Guides, Angels, and your Higher Self.
  • Cleanse and purify your crystals, dedicating them to the Light.
  • Light candles and use high-vibrational pure essential oils.

When you know what you are looking for shielding yourself is a lot easier.  With these tools and knowledge, you can reclaim your personal power and protect your energy from energy vampires. Remember, you have the ability to create and maintain energetic boundaries that support your well-being. Empower yourself today and safeguard your energy from those who seek to drain it.
