Akashic Perspective of Energy Vampires

Anyone including empaths can be energy vampires. Yep you read that right. There are times that you can be either consciously or unconsciously taking others energy.

Instances of this can look like:

• When you are co-dependently attached to someone

• Go to someone searching for validation

• Emotionally manipulating someone else

• Lack of your own personal grounding or in anxious states or victim mentalities.

• Constantly complaining & not grateful for what you do have

• Bypassing doing your own inner work for self awareness and embodiment

• Jealousy of others ~ this can also show up as insecurity in your own talents

• Greed where you are constantly seeking out what you feel you don't have (not just money)

So it's very important to do your own inner work like shadow work to keep your own ego in check and to strengthen your own auric field.

How do we protect ourselves?

This is where people really want to bypass doing the work. We want a quick fix to strengthen our energy field so we feel impenetrable and well never have to worry again. This is simply not true. Our energy field is designed to be open and receiving and closed when we are in certain states. It's our spidey sense to let us know we are around someone that isn't in alignment with us in some way. Sometimes we can remove ourselves from those people and other times we can't .

There are 4 main ways that you can protect yourself from Energy Vampires

1. Daily Morning and Evening Meditations

   There are meditations specifically designed to have you focus on your chakras and clear energies: Here is a great meditation https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vAfo8JPvNQI

   If this one doesn't speak to you, you can do walking meditations, breathwork breathing into each chakra and releasing negative energy there, Mantra meditation where you actually sing or hum is amazing to strengthen your energy as the words in sanskrit have higher energetic vibrations. Meditations is used to help us to ground and build internal awareness. This the number 1 way that the Akashic guides suggest in protecting yourself from energy vampires. This is because you first need to strengthen your mental and spiritual body. Meditation especially in the morning helps to raise your vibration. One way that energy vampires can get to us is through our thoughts. If we begin to take control of our mind and our own thoughts we start to understand what is ours and what is not. The crown and root chakra work in tandem so if someone plants seeds of doubts, pain, or confusion within you via the crown chakra it will also effect how grounded we are (Root Chakra). You need to dedicate to a meditation practice for at least 6 months in order to start seeing result or know if a certain type of meditation resonates to you. Yep its commitment! But if you are tired of the energy vampires it's time to start committing to yourself.

   
   

2. Shadow work

Yep and honestly shadow work isn't just about answering some journal prompts and saging your body. This is deep HARD work. I'll do whole another post on that, but this is where you actually start to move out the energetic stagnation in your energy field. Everyone is a reflection of you in some way. So if you are attracting energy vampires to you then there is something you are doing to yourself where you are stealing your own energy.

That could be anything from:

• Lack of boundaries

• Holding onto fear, doubt, worry, shame, guilt, or grudges

• If you experienced trauma or neglect in your childhood~ you are still operating from this wound which creates holes in your energy.

• Trying to control others even if you think its for their own good for your household to run smoothly.

When you start really doing the shadow work and you start to understand your triggers, integrating those positive learning's and new ways of being you become less triggered by these energy vampires. Less triggered you become you stop giving your power away and stop giving the vampires access to your energy.

3. Grounding practices & embodiment

   So meditation can offer a good grounding practice also especially to quiet the monkey mind.

But if meditation isn't speaking to you there are other amazing ways to ground your energy even throughout the day to keep you in a regulated state. Your Akashic records guides can also provide you with personalized grounding practices that fit your soul's frequency. That can be discussed in a reading if you called to that. Here are some other ways to ground your energy:

• Bare feet on the ground

• Eating a piece of candy or chocolate

• Drinking warm lemon water or tea~ drinking mindfully

• Fire gazing meditation can be particularly grounding and comforting

• Painting or other fun hands on activity like gardening or crafts

• Dancing, singing, or humming ~ Chanting OM can really bring you energy back, here is a YouTube video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8sYK7lm3UKg&list=RD8sYK7lm3UKg&start_radio=1

4. The hardest method that is also the most effective

Stop taking everything so dang personally. Yep I know I'm talking to me too. It's hard especially if you are sensitive to sound and someone is talking A. LOT. and loudly. This is where the other tactics of meditation and shadow work can help you but not taking things personally is going to be the most effective way of protecting your energy. WHY? because if you are taking things personally you are handing your power over.

Most of the time the other person isn't even aware of what they are doing. They have their own wounds, story, triggers, and ways to survive. We all are doing the best we can. Honestly, no one is thinking of you like you think of yourself. So preserve your energy by staying heart centered and don't take it as an intentional assault on you.

Well what about when people DO mean to hurt, manipulate, or be rude to you:

Repeat after me: R-E-S-P-E-C-T and whip out your BOUND-A-RIES... YEAH!

Stay regulated

Identify why you feel they way you feel

Teach people how to treat you with boundaries and love. You might have to say, "Don't speak to me that way!" or teach them by your absence. LEAVE. or hang up the phone whatever it is. It is ok to let silence be your answer.

I always use a tactic the Akashic records gave me.

I always struggled with boundaries and not speaking up made me feel like I was just taking it or abandoning myself. So the guides told me to start asking questions to those people. It gets them to stop & exposes them without escalating the situation.

SO I started asking clarifying questions like:

• "Can you explain to me what was funny about what you just said"~ if they make fun of you

• "Are you trying to hurt me?"

• "How do you think that just landed with me?"

• “What are you hoping I take away from that?”

• “Can we pause for a second—what’s really going on here?”

• "Can you repeat that?"

• “Do you realize how that sounded?”

I really hope you found this helpful and what you could actually apply to your everyday life. That's what I have enjoyed from Akashic guides. They give real world advice for stuff like this that can be easy yet affective. Let me know in the comments below how this helped you or what other topics you would like to read about.
