Spiritual Hygiene Guide

Visualization directs personal power.

Using visualization to start your day can be useful for anyone, empath or not. Empaths usually have some difficulty navigating how to help others without feeling drained or vulnerable. Here are some exercises that employ really basic visualizations you can add your own artistic flair to. They serve to help protect and reserve energy for the Self.

Charging Your Battery:

This can be done through meditation.

1. Sit and place your tongue on the roof of your mouth with your mouth slightly opening

2. Breath in through your nose and out through your nose

3. Try to breath 4 seconds in and 6 seconds out (this lowers your heart rate naturally)

4. Focus on filling the space below your navel and above your pelvis with air and a “golden light”that you can return to throughout the day as your energy reservoir. In Qigong this area is referred to as your lower Dan Tien.

Shielding:

After you have filled your reservoir for the day, “charged” your spiritual battery, it is nice to add an additional layer of protection.

1. Continue breathing in and out through your nose slowly

2. Imagine that with every out breath you are contributing to a bubble forming around your body that expands outwards building a shell around your electromagnetic field

3. Be creative – this shell can be any color, opaque or translucent. I decorate mine with Renoir paintings, dried flowers, opals, and arrowheads. Make it your own haven.

4. Say a mantra out loud to yourself to state your needs as far as protection is concerned. For example “ Let all the negative energy fall to the ground, and only let love and light enter and exit through this shield.”
