In the US we are entering the Holiday season. This means lots of family gatherings and other get-togethers will be coming up. You get exposed to people (and their energy) that you don’t normally have contact with. If you’re energy sensitive these additional social interactions can be overwhelming. Today I’ll give you some tips on how to navigate all of this and still protect your energy.  Best Ways To Side-Step Awkward Conversations  There are a number of gracious and respectful ways to not speak about topics you find private, even when asked. It is your choice what you share and don’t share. Let me share some of the redirection tactics I’ve found helpful.  Think of Protecting Your Energy This Way  There are methods you can use to “shield” your energy so to speak when you are in group settings. Listen to get one of my most effective methods and find out how it's just like putting on your underwear.  What Crystals Can Help Protect Your Energy  As with using crystals for any purpose, it starts with the individual. Use what you feel drawn to and what works for you. Many of the stones that I find work very well are clear stones. They may have color but it wouldn’t be vibrant or dark. Amethyst and Citrine are 2 that come to mind. I’ll also share why Citrine may be one of the best stones for this use. I do also find grounding stones can help transmute some of that energy and I’ll give you some examples of those as well.  Make Yourself This Promise When Protecting Your Energy  Set boundaries ahead of time. Get clear with yourself on what behavior and topics you’ll find acceptable and which ones will be off limits. You can also decide how long you intend to stay at the gathering versus trying to pull out once you are caught up in the energy of the day. These decisions become promises you make yourself in order to make your energy a priority as well.  How to Get Comfortable Saying the Uncomfortable  There really is an art to saying no. And once you’ve mastered it and released it you can release the fear of being uncomfortable and be able to say no from a place of love. Here’s to staying Spiritual and Ambitious.    LINKS:  Annual Purple Friday Sale Wait List (Starts Nov 24, 2023!) Free Class!
