How’s your energy doing?
September tends to be a unique time where we simultaneously reflect on the year so far and also have a frantic sense of urgency to “get things done” as we realize that there are only a few months left of the year.
Today’s episode focuses on the former.
For me, 2021 doesn’t feel much easier than 2020. While there was great joy and relief in seeing humans again there was also a lot of re-learning of what it’s like to be around others, in-person. I found myself feeling like a deflated floaty almost after every gathering of over 10 people.
Nothing like being a hermit for over 12 months to help you realize the energetic effect that other humans have on you.
This is happening in conjunction with constantly changing restrictions/requirements and a still very present emotionally charged environment.
So, how’s your energy doing?
If you’re feeling heavy, weighed down and perhaps even drained, this episode that we’re revisiting from last year will help!
Rebecca Gibson, Spiritual Strategist and Psychic Medium, shows you practices that you can use to keep your energy clear.
We also talk about what being empathic means and how to tell if you’re an empath.
Hint: If you find yourself sensitive to other people’s energies there’s a high chance you might be empathic. Other signs might include experiencing unexplained dampening of your energy or bouts of sadness that leave you drained.
This is also the episode where I learned a new term - spiritual hygiene. I love this term and it really helps me better understand how to take care of my energy. I’m really excited for you to learn about it too because it makes all of this stuff feel more second nature and easy.

What is an empath?
What does it really mean to be and empath…what does it feel like to be one? What kinds of experiences do they or have they encountered? Rebecca shares with us traits of an empath like how they absorb other people’s emotions and experience massive fluctuations in their own emotions.
Are you an empath?
Rebecca shares 13+ signs and examples that will help you know if you’re an empath such as:
absorbing other people’s emotions
being drained from watching the news
feeling completely isolated
noticing that groups of people vibe at your vibe (ex. if you’re happy and you walk into a room others seem to be happy; if you’re anxious and you walk into a room it seems that everyone else becomes anxious)
people confide in you and leave feeling amazing while you’re left feeling like crap (headache, anxious, cramping…)
Spiritual Hygiene!
One of my new favorite terms! This is an easy term to remember to help you cue into protecting your energy.
“Just as you’d wash your hands after shaking a bunch of people’s hands, you need to wash off your energy after bumping energies with others”
Rebecca gives us several amazing ways to clear and protect your energy. They’re simple and definitely something that you can do right away!
