Lesson: Energetic Defense

LIMITLESS

Components of Your Energetic Defense or Psychic Armor

Your energetic defense is crucial for maintaining your well-being and navigating the complexities of daily life. It involves a combination of practices and strategies designed to protect and enhance your personal energy. Understanding and implementing key components can significantly strengthen your defenses and promote a more positive and balanced energetic state. Here’s a look at the essential elements of your energetic defense:

Physical and Energetic Borders and Boundaries

Physical Borders and Boundaries

These are the tangible, visible, and cognitive limits that play an important role in creating a calm and supportive environment where you feel safe, secure, heard and understood.

Physical Touch
Personal Preferences
Belief Systems
Privacy
Personal Space
Health and Safety

Energetic Borders and Boundaries

These are the invisible limits we establish to protect our energy field from being infiltrated. Setting energetic boundaries to protect your personal energy from unwanted influences, ensures that your personal space only aligns with positive energy.

Meditation
Grounding exercises
Personal Time
Influences of others
Empathic Awareness

While physical boundaries are typically focused on space, energetic boundaries involve the protection of our emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being, ensuring we do not become overwhelmed or depleted by external forces. Both types of boundaries are crucial for maintaining balance and self-care, with the key difference being that physical boundaries are visible and external, whereas energetic boundaries are invisible and internal.

Conscious Living

Awareness

Conscious living involves being mindful of your thoughts, emotions, and actions, as well as the environments and people you engage with. By being aware, you can identify and avoid situations or individuals that may negatively affect your energy by making intentional choices.

Mindful Eating Habits
Exposure to News and Media
Lifestyle Choices
Relationships
Environment
Work Satisfaction
Social Engagements
Self Perception
Emotions

Intentional Choices and Decisions

It’s about making deliberate choices that align with your highest and greatest good and well-being. This includes nourishing your body with healthy food, surrounding yourself with positive influences, and engaging in activities that uplift and energize you.

Eating habits that support physical and cognitive health
Limit exposure to news and media
Engage in better lifestyle choices that promote health and vitality such as meditation, prayer, aroma therapy, professional therapy, massage therapy, etc.
Engage in support relationships that nurture and uplifts
Avoid environments that compromises safety, emotional and mental health, and emotional well-being
Engage in careers that supports growth, commensurate with respect to self value, and something that interests you
Avoid social engagements that compromise your emotional, mental, spiritual well-being
Learn to adjust your self perception into positive and constructive ones
Be cognizant of your emotions and learn to communicate them effectively while maintaining composure and self respect

Concious living references what you learned earlier in Week 2 (Mind, Body, Spirit). It is vital in maintaining energetic defense because it allows us to be mindful and intentional about the energy we interact with on a daily basis. When we live consciously, we are better able to recognize and manage the energies that influence our emotional, mental, and spiritual states, ensuring we don’t become overwhelmed or drained by external forces. This awareness helps us establish strong energetic boundaries, as we can discern when our energy is being compromised and take action to protect ourselves. By consciously setting our intentions, practicing self-awareness, and engaging in regular energy-clearing practices (like grounding or shielding), we create an environment that supports personal empowerment and well-being. Conscious living also involves being present and mindful, allowing us to maintain clarity about our needs, limits, and values, which in turn strengthens both physical and energetic boundaries, protecting us from emotional or spiritual depletion.

Point of Attraction

Abraham-Hicks

Esther Hicks is a well-known American author and speaker who, along with her late husband Jerry Hicks, became widely recognized for her work on The Law of Attraction. Esther channels a collective consciousness known as Abraham, a group of non-physical entities that communicate through her. Abraham’s teachings focus on the idea that individuals create their own realities through their thoughts, feelings, and beliefs, emphasizing the importance of positive thinking, emotional alignment, and vibration to attract desired experiences into one’s life.

The Point of Attraction is a key concept in Abraham-Hicks teachings. It refers to the idea that each individual is constantly emitting a vibrational frequency based on their thoughts and feelings, which acts as a “magnetic point” that attracts experiences, circumstances, and people into their lives. According to Abraham, the Point of Attraction is determined by a person’s emotional state or vibration. For example, when someone feels positive emotions, their Point of Attraction is aligned with more positive experiences. Conversely, negative emotions create a lower vibrational frequency, attracting experiences that reflect those negative states.

In essence, Esther Hicks and Abraham teach that by consciously focusing on positive thoughts and aligning with emotional well-being, individuals can shift their Point of Attraction and manifest more of what they want in their lives, whether it’s abundance, love, health, or success. The Point of Attraction is a reminder that we are all vibrational beings who have the power to shape our experiences by adjusting our internal states.

Smudging Your Space

Smudge Your Space

Saging, or the practice of burning sage, works through the vibrational properties of the sage plant, not through magical means. Sage has a natural, high-frequency vibrational state, and when its smoke is released into the air, its aromatic vibrations interact with the energetic field of the people and the space. These vibrations help to raise the vibrational set point of those in the room, promoting a sense of calm, clarity, and balance. As the vibrations of the sage harmonize with the energy present, they effectively cleanse and elevate the room’s energy, shifting it to a more positive state. This process is not mystical but rather a natural result of how different vibrations affect one another, with sage acting as a powerful tool for promoting energetic balance and well-being.

Creating Wards as Protection Barriers

A ward is a protective symbol, object, or energy used to repel negative or unwanted energy. It is often used to create a barrier around a person, place, or object to prevent harmful energy from entering or affecting it. Wards can take many forms, including symbols, crystals, herbs, or even energy constructs created through visualization or energy work. They are often used in conjunction with other spiritual and energetic protection practices, such as meditation, energy healing, and energy cleansing, to enhance overall energetic protection.

The Psychic Armor and Your Energetic Protection

The psychic armor made from golden light, the violet flame, and white light is a powerful visualization technique that can help to protect your energy field and promote a sense of inner strength and clarity. To create this psychic armor, imagine yourself surrounded by a sphere of golden light, which represents divine protection and wisdom. Next, envision a violet flame surrounding the golden sphere, which can help to transmute negative energy and promote health and healing. Finally, imagine sphere of white light emanating from you and filling the space around you with pure, high-frequency energy. This technique can be used anytime you feel the need for energetic protection or a boost in your confidence and inner power.

Golden Light

Golden light is a visualization technique used in energy work to promote a sense of divine protection and wisdom. To practice this technique, imagine a sphere of golden light surrounding you, filling you with positive, high-frequency energy. This visualization can help to promote inner strength, clarity, and protection from negative energies.

Violet Flame

The violet flame is a spiritual energy that is said to have the power to transmute negative energy into positive energy. It is often visualized as a violet-colored flame that burns away negative energy and transmutes it into positive energy. By working with the violet flame, individuals can release negative emotions, thoughts, and patterns, allowing for greater spiritual growth and transformation.

White Light

White light is a spiritual energy that is often associated with purity, clarity, and protection. It is often visualized as a bright, white light that surrounds and permeates the body, creating a protective barrier against negative energy and promoting a sense of peace and harmony. By working with white light, individuals can connect with their higher selves and access to psychic and spiritual energy.

Auric Fields

Seeing Auras

As described in a previous module, the auric field can be thought of as a vital component of your energetic armor, acting as an invisible protective barrier that surrounds your physical body and energy systems. It extends beyond the body, often visualized as an energy fieldmade up of layers, each corresponding to different aspects of your being: physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual. The auric field acts as a shield, filtering out harmful energies, protecting against negative influences, and preventing energy drain from external sources.

Just as armor shields and protects the body in physical combat, your auric field provides protection from emotional toxicity, psychic attacks, and other disturbances that could deplete or disrupt your energy. When the auric field is strong and balanced, it supports your well-being, fosters a sense of safety, and enhances spiritual clarity. On the other hand, if the auric field becomes weakened or damaged, it may allow external negative energies to penetrate, leading to feelings of fatigue, confusion, or emotional imbalance.

Maintaining the health of your auric field through practices like grounding, meditation, and personal boundaries is essential for keeping your energetic armor intact. By consciously nurturing and strengthening the auric field, you ensure that it continues to serve as a robust and resilient shield, allowing you to navigate the world with greater energetic sovereignty and protection.

Talismans and Amulets for Energetic Protection

Talismans and Amulets for Energetic Protection and Holding Space

Objects and symbols of protection are powerful tools that can enhance our point of attraction and protect our energy. Crystals, amulets, sacred symbols, and other meaningful items carry protective energy and serve as physical reminders of our spiritual practices and intentions. By wearing or carrying them, we strengthen our connection to the spiritual realm and keep our focus on maintaining positive energy. The energy and intention we infuse into these objects amplify their power, creating a protective shield that promotes a higher vibrational state. It’s important to choose objects that resonate with our personal spiritual beliefs, as they can enhance our energetic boundaries and foster a more positive, fulfilling life. Amulets are believed to ward off negative energy, while talismans are created and charged with specific intentions to empower the wearer and enhance their point of attraction. Both serve different yet complementary roles in energy protection, starting from our point of attraction, which is influenced by conscious living and overall mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual well-being. Some items, like certain stones and symbols, can function as both amulets and talismans, though it’s essential to recognize the distinct purposes they serve. Ultimately, a talisman empowers, and an amulet protects, making them valuable assets in creating a balanced and energetically protected life.

Intentions are Energetic Commands

Setting a clear intention is a powerful way to enforce your energetic protection. By consciously stating or visualizing your desire to protect your energy, you activate your personal power and align your mind, body, and spirit with that goal. Intentions act as energetic commands, creating a shield around your aura that prevents negativity or unwanted influences from entering your space. Whether through affirmations, meditation, or visualization, focusing on your intention strengthens your energy field and enhances your awareness of potential energetic disruptions. With a strong intention in place, you can maintain emotional balance, stay grounded, and better protect yourself from draining energies or harmful influences. Strong intentions are acheived through a regular meditation practice that includes a segment on intention setting of your energetic protection.

Stand in Your Personal Power

Offensive measures to energetic protection involve actively strengthening your energy field and proactively sending out positive, strong vibrations to prevent negative energies from affecting you. Rather than just shielding yourself passively, offensive measures focus on impacting the energy of others with your own vibrational influence without their consent.
