Hi,

Someone resently asked me What do I do to protect myself from picking up the negative energy from clients?

One thing that I try to remember to do is to have the client fill out an intake form before I work with them to see if I want to work with them and their issue. I also trade sessions with other practitioners to clear myself. I also have an intent to stay in balance and not overwork myself. Taking a hot bath can help me release energy. I also feel that by tapping on myself while I am working with the client helps me keep my energy system humming.

There is another part of me that sees everyone as whole and complete--no matter what their symptoms are. When I come from that place then I am not experiencing negative energy.

So, i am interested in what your feelings are about this subject, and what you do.

Gratefully yours,

JoAnn

This might sound cocky, but I assume that I'm not taking their negative energy.

I think the wost thing you could do is to worry about it.

I do four things for energy hygiene

1) before the session I do a little tapping on anything thing that will prevent me from being present and anything that make what we are doing harmful for me.

2) before the session I envision a while ball of light around me which will only let through energy that helpful and healthy for me.  Any energy that would be harmful to me bounces off the shield to a lightning rod which sends the energy into the Earth

3) After the session I make a chopping motion with both hands in front of my core to break the connections that still might exist.

4) After I envision a pot of poison and shake my hands over it getting ride of anything that I might have collected that might be harmful to me
