One important practice I am doing more consistently now and I am noticing a big difference, is after connecting with anyone I spend a few minutes separating our energy. I call all of my spiritual energy back and send their energy back to their guides.

If you spend some time connecting with someone(a preferred interaction or even a non preferred interaction) and you notice you are still feeling that person or thinking about them a lot, it’s likely some of their energy is in your space. It’s a good idea to consciously separate.

With friends who are familiar or comfortable with this sort of language I’ll even say, ok let’s separate our energies now.

With others, I will do the same practice but I will work with their guides(or higher self) instead.

If you have been in a relationship with someone for a long time this can require more cleaning house because the energies tend to be very enmeshed. So you can do this process of separating energies over time. Whenever you think of it, just repeat the process.
