Who is stealing your energy?

We are all 100% responsible for our lives, our consequences come whether we like them or not.  This includes letting other people steal our joy and our energy.  It is a choice.

It has been proven in science that we are all energetically connected so it is worth paying attention to the energy you are giving and receiving with others.  Are you spending time with negative people who bring you down or positive people who raise your energy?  It is worth looking at how you feel when you are with the people you spend most of your time with and how you feel when you leave them, are you energised or are you drained?  Do you feel like you have been yourself or have you been pretending to be someone else?  It is very easy to be sucked into going along with the crowd, but how does it make you feel?

We also pick up behaviours and beliefs...my mother is terrified of butterflies.  She had a bad experience when she was a child (about 85 years ago!) so maybe time to get over it, I hear you say.  The interesting thing is that I have picked that up from her.  Maybe it comes from my childhood, where she ran away screaming if she saw a butterfly or maybe it is more subtle than that.  I did not think this affected me as when I see them in the garden I admire them.  Two minutes ago, one flew through my office.  I leaped up screaming!  Totally ridiculous!  For some reason, when it was in an enclosed space, I was terrified.  Luckily my brave husband was at hand to rescue me (and more importantly, the butterfly) he opened a window for it and all was well again in my world.  When my breathing went back to normal, I realised how ridiculous the whole episode was.  I have no reason to be scared of butterflies (lepidopterophobia, it is called, according to google) except from spending time with my mother.  As a child I would have picked up her terror and made it my own.

It makes you wonder, though, what else are we picking up on?  Isn't it interesting when you feel that someone is not being genuine, where do we get the knowledge?  We get it from their energy field, which is radiating all our emotions for others to pick up on.  What energy are you giving out?  What energy are you picking up?  Are you letting people drain you or uplift you?

Spend some time this week, paying attention to who do you spend your time with and how do they make you feel...

As always, tapping fixes this, like it fixes everything in my world!  Look at the marvellous mornings video on how to tap and give yourself the energy of some positives to benefit both yourself and the others you spend your time with.
