Sometimes, when we get physically closed to someone, we might take in their energy and that's when we started to feel them in our space even when they are not around, we know what they are feeling, thinking, etc. While these things are being celebrated in the popular culture,

it is actually not healthy for both person energetically! When you're taking in someone else's energy in your space, their energy could affect your life and when they go through something (or vise versa), they might not be able to deal with it. It might also create codependency.

Imagine 2 strand of strings, one red and another blue, now intertwined with one another, neither string knows how to be on their own now, because they feel like they need the other to support them, but they really dont. And because of the close contact, some of the blue rubbed

off on the red and vise versa, tainting each other with their essence (aka affecting each others' lives, you can see this as the manifestation of your life getting tainted/ you're manifesting things the other person wants).

Unwinding the strings, helps each to stabilise as their

own energy, and that would allow you to take charge of your life once again.

So, how do we do this? We can unwind our energy from others by regularly clearing our own energy. One of the simpler way to do this is by commanding another person's energy to leave your space.

I personally like to do it during shower but you're able to do it anytime you feel called to. But there's power to shower because the water carries the other person's energy away from you and into Mother Earth, who can help us to transmute the energy into better ones and send

it back to the person it belongs to. During the process, I like to use my hands and swipe from head to toe. Separate into 3 parts: top, middle, bottom. Take your time with the sweeping, that is, cover all areas, visualize as you do so, foreign energy (other person's energy) is

being swiped down (you can visualize this in Colors). For each part (aka top, middle, bottom), I will chant as I swipe: "I command all energy that's not mine to leave my space right now as my own energy stays with me."

If you have a specific person in mind, chant: "I command energy of [INSERT NAME HERE] to go back to [their preferred pronounce] and my own energy stays with me."

I often do this after each and every energy session too to assure that I'm not carrying energy of my clients with me.

There are definitely other ways to clear off foreign energies too, but this is one you can do on yourself and keep your own energy safe. Other methods including: getting Reiki attuned so you can clear foreign energy out from your body, getting a session with Reiki/ Energy healer,

Opening the Akashic Records helps you to keep foreign energies out, etc.

In the end, it is up to us to maintain our own energy and keeping it purely our own, it is important because it's only when we are fully in our own energy, we are able to have full control of our lives.
