When your nervous system is dysregulated, your energetic field becomes porous and absorbs other people's emotions like a sponge. Real protection isn't about blocking energy. It starts with regulating and grounding your own nervous system first.

When your nervous system is dysregulated, your energetic field becomes porous and absorbs other people's emotions like a sponge. Real protection isn't about blocking energy. It starts with regulating and grounding your own nervous system first.
But if you are only paying attention to your outer field and not looking at what's going on in your nervous system, you're missing half the story, in my opinion, because your nervous system and your energy field, outer energy field, mirror each other. So if one of them is feeling dysregulated, you may not— or if your nervous system's feeling dysregulated, you may not be able to be as energetically protected. Regulated and grounded as you need to be. So when our nervous systems are off and dysregulated, our energy fields can actually become more porous and more like a sponge, drawing in the energy and the fields of the people around us. So we become way more susceptible to co-regulating our nervous systems to people who may be dysregulated, which isn't healthy for us.
