3. Take care of yourself energetically, mind, body, and spirit.
We are made of energy and we are receiving and projecting energy all day long. As energy beings, we are like radio towers tuning in on other people’s frequencies around us. We can pick up and own a lot of energetic information that is not ours. As HSPs you can pick up on other people’s feelings and moods (empathy) and take them on as your own. So it is really important to become conscious about clearing your energy field (your body and the space around you) and not taking on other people’s emotions.
Visualize every morning and evening what you envisioned in Step 4. Feel the feelings and see yourself already doing, having and being what you dreamed up above.
Embody these emotions throughout the day. Make decisions and plans while you are feeling these emotions.
Stay focused on your intention, taking one step at a time expanding your emotions as if you’ve already achieved it and you love your life.
An Energy Gift for You!
