The Importance of Protecting Your Energy in a Shifting World

There is so much noise in the world right now. You can feel it almost everywhere you turn — on the news, through your phone, even just stepping outside. Stories designed to stir fear flood our awareness daily, images flash across screens to keep people locked in division, anger, and despair. It can feel overwhelming, even hopeless at times.

But when you listen beneath the surface — beyond the fear, beyond the noise — you may sense something else stirring. We are witnessing the Great Awakening. The old structures that once kept fear and separation in place are crumbling. Energies that have long shaped the world are being dismantled. And for those of us who are already sensitive, tuned into the deeper currents of life, the shifting is almost impossible to ignore.

We feel everything. We feel the sorrow when others are hurting. We feel the ache when injustice rises. We feel the grief of a world shedding its old skin. And because we care so deeply, it is easy to lose ourselves in the weight of it. It is easy to let our energy be pulled outward, into the chaos, into the heartache, into the desire to heal it all.

But here’s something essential to remember: You cannot carry the world if you abandon your own light. When your energy is constantly reaching outward, caught up in fear, in worry, in trying to hold everything together, you step out of your sovereignty. You move away from the clear vision of your soul and begin to see through the blurred lens of emotion rather than truth.

How to Recognize When Your Energy is Unprotected

You might notice yourself feeling exhausted after conversations or activities that once felt easy. Emotions may rise up quickly, disproportionate to the situation. It can become difficult to hear your own voice above the noise. You may find yourself saying yes when you truly want to say no, feeling obligated to take on the struggles of others. Over time, your own desires and clarity can feel muted under the weight of everything you are carrying.

These experiences are not signs of weakness. They are signs of an open, beautiful heart operating without the energetic protection it needs. Sensitivity is a gift, but when left unguarded, it becomes heavy to bear.

Why Boundaries Are Essential for Protecting Your Light

Protecting your energy is not about closing yourself off from life; it is about discerning what belongs in your field and what does not. Boundaries are the sacred spacekeepers that allow you to move through the world with compassion while staying anchored in your own truth.

Healthy energetic boundaries allow you to honor your needs without guilt. They create the space to listen to others without absorbing their pain. They allow you to love deeply without losing yourself. With strong boundaries, you can remain open and compassionate without carrying burdens that are not yours to hold.

When you strengthen your energetic field and your boundaries, you become the lighthouse — steady amidst the changing tides — not because you resist the waves, but because you are rooted firmly in your own light.

What Happens When You Call Your Energy Back

Calling your energy back is a gentle but profound act of self-love. The moment you choose to reclaim your light, things begin to shift. Your strength rebuilds from within. Your intuition becomes louder and clearer. Relationships that once felt heavy either evolve into deeper authenticity or fall away naturally. You stop pouring your energy into fear and confusion, and instead begin creating, healing, and living from a deeper place of truth.

This is not about turning away from the world’s needs. It is about being able to meet them from a place of clarity, wisdom, and sovereignty, rather than reaction, exhaustion, or overwhelm.

When your energy is anchored fully within you, you no longer feel consumed by the suffering you witness. You feel compassion without collapse. You carry light into dark places without losing sight of your path.

An Invocation to Anchor Your Energy and Power

Whenever you feel yourself pulled outward, tangled in confusion, or carrying energy that does not belong to you, you can return home to yourself. A simple invocation can realign your field and call your light back into its rightful place.

Often, I imagine a radiant shield of light forming around me, strengthened by the divine. Calling upon Archangel Michael — the protector, the anchor of truth — amplifies the strength of this shield profoundly. (In The Angel Series, we will be exploring this connection much more deeply.)

Here is an invocation you can speak aloud or silently to yourself:

I call all my energy back to me now, fully cleansed and restored in divine light.

I release any energy, cords, or attachments that do not serve my highest path.

I reclaim my clarity, my strength, and my divine sovereignty.

I shield myself in the highest protection of love and truth.

I see the world through clear, compassionate eyes, rooted in my soul’s wisdom.

I am centered, empowered, and anchored in the light.

And so it is.

Breathe deeply as you say these words. Feel your energy returning to you. Feel the world softening around you as your light becomes your anchor once more.

Learning to protect my energy has been one of the most transformational parts of my journey. It changed the way I live, love, heal, and serve. I no longer walk into intense environments and feel consumed. I no longer say yes when my soul is calling for a no. I no longer lose myself in the storms of others’ emotions.

Instead, I stand rooted in my own field, listening deeply, acting with compassion, but remaining whole and anchored in my own truth. My relationships have deepened. My personal healing has accelerated. My work has aligned with my highest calling.

One of the greatest allies who has supported me through this journey is Archangel Michael. His presence offers protection that clears fear, anchors truth, and strengthens the divine light within. Through building a deeper relationship with him and with the angelic realms, I realized that protecting your energy is only the beginning. Healing, self-love, forgiveness, compassion, and remembering that you are never walking this path alone are all equally vital.

Because of how deeply important this is during the time of awakening we are living through, I created The Angel Series — a sacred container to deepen your connection with the Archangels, fortify your energy, and reclaim the full power of your divine light.

We begin by working with Archangel Michael, the first Archangel we will meet in this series. His guidance will support you in anchoring protection, strength, and truth into every part of your being.

The Angel Series begins live on Wednesday, April 30th. All sessions will be recorded and provided to you if you are unable to attend live.

If you feel called to walk this path of remembrance and empowerment, I would be honored to walk alongside you.

Your energy is sacred. Your light is sacred. Protecting it is not just an act of self-preservation — it is an act of service to the world you are here to help heal.

Imagine the clarity, the peace, and the strength that becomes possible when you choose to anchor fully into your own divine light.

You were never meant to carry the burdens of the world. You were meant to carry your soul’s light

fully, fiercely, and freely.

And you were never meant to do it alone.
