In a hospital, if we work with body fluids, we have gloves and self-protection routines in place. When we work with invisible energies, our self-protection routines have to be even more subtle and intentional.

To my eye, many healers and students working with energy, work with invisible energy un-safely. Shared here is what I've learned in my study and practice with Energy Medicine clients.

Adequate and sufficient psychic-self-protection is the goal. It's the art and science of having more clear boundaries between yourself and the negative energies clients are unburdening themselves of. The problem? "Energy Flows towards its releaser" says Mimi Castellanos. You do not want pollution or contamination of your field and body.

Working with clients' invisible negativity means practitioners must be more responsible for their own psychic-spiritual protection. It's challenging to be aware of our own openings to negativity when negativity comes off of clients wants to find a new "home."

The good news? In the top half of our body, we are less vulnerable to unwanted psychic influences; we are more awake-alert here. However from our diaphragm muscle down, in our physical and invisible bodies, what we don't know and can't perceive, can accumulate, hang on us and accumulate. We have far less wakefulness lower in our body and on our left side.

Unfortunately, in the name of empathy and service, many energy healers have been taught to lower their psychic boundaries--without being taught how to adequately and sufficiently restore healthy internal boundaries after a session.

Too open boundaries aggravates existing habits of over-giving and over-attentiveness to others. Becoming more masterful as a healer means strengthening BOTH our empathy; and, our healthy detachment, AND our healthy interpersonal boundaries.

Conscious intention to be safe and not traffic in negativity is a good start; affirmations for psychic protection are good. However, these are primarily effective from the heart and lungs-up.

The easy way to increase my own psychic self-protection is to connect with Higher Spiritual Beings and your own Higher Guidance in Soul and Above. Who are your Friends in High Places? Who do you ask for spiritual protection from? Each person determines these for themself individually.

I ASK for the presence of their support at the start of every client session I do. Are you asking? Here are some ways to ask. Effort counts. If you practice you will improve.

Many varied self-protection ideas and exercises exist. This book began from reviewing 17 books on psychic self protection available at the time. What struck me in looking at all these was I could find only one with a frequency of loving. This was John-Roger's book, Psychic Protection. I decided for me, I'm sticking with self-protection methods aligned with loving. The present book doesn't repeat John-Roger's exercises and ideas. It attempts to add to and expand possibilities aligned with loving.

This is primarily for persons already self-testing (old term: muscle testing), in some form, or who are willing to learn. For practitioners, I very much encourage trading time with a Healing Buddy to address unresolved disturbances.
