In my last blog, we talked about entrainment—how our energy influences (and gets influenced by) those around us. I also gave some quick tips on how to strengthen your own frequency so you don’t get swept up in everyone else’s chaos.

But today? We’re taking it up a notch.

This week, we're diving into the real tea on grounding, energetic boundaries, and making sure your aura stays as unbothered as a meditating monk on a mountaintop.

Let’s Get Into Some of the Woo

You ever walk into a room and instantly feel drained? Like someone just stole your WiFi password and started streaming their emotional baggage on your network?

That’s because energy is contagious. Just like a tuning fork can shift an entire instrument, your vibe influences the space around you. But to keep your energy strong (and not get zapped by the world’s chaos), you need a resilient energy skin—aka, your aura.

Think of your aura like a sacred temple—when it’s well-tended, filled with light, and honored with care, you move through life with confidence, clarity, and presence. But if the foundation is cracked, the doors are wide open to unwanted energies, and the structure is neglected (hello, over-giving, people-pleasing, and stress), you might feel drained, scattered, or disconnected from yourself.

So how do we protect our aura like it’s luxury? Here’s your guide:

🌱 Grounding Is Your Anchor

The #1 secret to keeping your energy unshakable? Grounding. The more anchored you are in your own energy, the less likely you are to absorb everyone else’s drama.

For my tech peeps—Dr. Francesca McCartney, in Body of Health, describes grounding like the grounding wire in a computer. That wire keeps the system from overloading during a power surge—without it, the whole thing could fry. That’s exactly what grounding does for you! It stabilizes your energy and prevents burnout, overwhelm, and those “why am I crying over a stranger’s bad vibes?” moments.

👑 Translation? Grounding is the foundation of everything. If your energy isn’t grounded, no amount of spiritual work, crystals, or sage is gonna stick. It’s like trying to build a house on quicksand—it won’t hold.

Ways to Ground Right Now:

🌍 Visual Grounding: Imagine a grounding cord running from the base of your spine deep into the earth. Feel it anchoring you, draining static energy, and restoring your balance. My current favorite? A tree with fuchsia-purple roots wrapped around amethyst and diamonds in the Earth, radiating stability and clarity.

💨 Breathwork: Deep belly breaths, box breathing, or alternate nostril breathing reset your nervous system and pull you back into the moment. This one was profound for me! Hello, abs. I didn’t realize how much I was holding my breath until I consciously tuned into it. Belly breathing has completely shifted my awareness.

🕺 Move Your Body: Walking, stretching, pole dancing (how I reconnected with my body and strength)—any physical movement stabilizes your energy.

🌳 Nature Therapy: Put your bare feet on the ground, hug a tree, sit by water—nature holds clean, neutral energy that instantly clears and centers you. My personal favorite reset tool! Hands down.

🛡️ Aura Shields Up: Protect Your Energy Like It’s VIP

Not everyone deserves backstage access to your energy. Protect your aura like a celeb dodging the paparazzi. Your aura is typically at least arm’s length around your whole body. Don't forget your back, the top of your head, and below your feet into the Earth!

🧊 Mirror or Bubble Shield – Visualize a golden light, a crystalline egg, or even a disco ball around you. Set the intention: “I allow in only what serves me; the rest bounces.”

🌿 Cord Weeding (Not Just Cutting) – Another teaching from my school, The Academy of Intuition Medicine. Cutting energetic cords is like trimming a weed at the surface—if you don’t pull the root, it grows back. Instead, ask yourself:

💡 Why was this cord formed?

💡 What belief, attachment, or wound is keeping it alive?

Then, visualize gently pulling it out from the root and filling that space with light and sovereignty, or, even better, your own life force energy (more on this energy later). When you heal the root cause, there’s nothing left for the cord to attach to.

🎶 Hold Your Own Frequency (Big Aura Energy)

Think of a symbol, color, or sound that feels absolutely right for you. To discover yours, take a moment to tune into your energy field. Close your eyes, breathe deeply, and ask yourself: What feels like home to me? What image, hue, or vibration makes me feel strong, aligned, and centered? It might be a golden light, the sound of a bell, or the deep blue of the ocean. Pay attention to what naturally comes up—your body will recognize it before your mind does.

When you tune into this symbol, color, or sound, you’ll feel gooooood—a deep, undeniable resonance. Now, recognize that this symbol, color, or sound can be a container—something you keep on you, carry in your awareness, and open up to whenever you want to step into your desired frequency, your energy, your world. 

From there, play with your aura! Try different energies on, mix and match like a frequency cocktail, and keep reinventing. Want to feel more powerful? Experiment with the light of the sun (the sun carries immense energy—use it with intention and only if it resonates with you). Need more protection? Imagine a golden mirror around the edge reflecting back anything that comes your way. Energy is dynamic, and you have the power to shift it as much as you desire.

Eventually, you’ll be so harmonized you won’t even know what to do with yourself! Remember, you’re not static—you’re a symphony, always in motion.

This is part of reclaiming your power. You don’t have to be at the mercy of other people’s vibes—you can be the tuning fork and set the energy of any space.

🔀 Boundaries = Freedom (Not Walls, Filters!)

Boundaries aren’t walls—they’re the framework that defines your energy. They don’t just filter—they establish the energetic structure that keeps you whole.

💡 Affirm: I choose to engage only with energy that uplifts and supports me.

💗 Try: A golden reflective mirror around the edge of your aura. It’s like the ultimate energy shield—whatever comes your way bounces off and returns to its source, transformed with love and neutrality. Instead of absorbing energy that isn’t yours, you reflect it back purified and detached, keeping your field clear and high-vibe. 

Notice when your energy starts shifting out of alignment and take back control. You are always in charge of your own frequency. Boundaries aren’t just about filtering—they actually do block everything that isn't you. You are your own home, your own sanctuary. You can dance with other energies, be inspired by them, and even reignite dormant parts of yourself through connection with others, but ultimately, you house yourself. Any energy you engage with is still yours—it moves through your field, transforms in your essence, and aligns with your unique frequency.

✨ Why This Matters for Business & Career Success

Your energy isn’t just something you feel—it’s something you project. Think of yourself and your company as a projector, constantly casting an energetic field outward. That field creates the reality you experience and magnetizes the people, opportunities, and circumstances that align with it. How powerful is that?

Your personal energy doesn’t just affect you—it influences your workplace, your team, and even your business outcomes. Companies that cultivate high-frequency environments attract more innovation, better collaboration, and a stronger leadership presence.

When you master your energy, you:

✅ Show up with clarity & confidence—making you a natural leader.

✅ Set boundaries effectively—preventing burnout and toxic work dynamics.

✅ Enhance creativity & intuition—leading to sharper decision-making.

✅ Create a magnetic presence—drawing in opportunities and meaningful connections.

Organizations that prioritize energetic well-being see happier employees, stronger workplace cultures, and higher productivity. Whether you’re an entrepreneur, a leader, or just leveling up your career, energetic mastery is the ultimate success hack.

💎 Final Takeaway: Be the Tuning Fork, Not the Echo

The more you cultivate your energetic strength, the easier it becomes to move through the world fully in your power.

💫 Ground yourself.

💫 Protect your energy.

💫 Hold your own frequency.

Because, baby—it’s AURA, and you’re the main event. ✨💖
