You are very welcome Stephanie,
I am happy for you that your practice at the party helped. When we remember to protect ourselves we feel so much better!!
I guess it is like any exercise though, we know we should do it, we just don’t always take the time out.
That would be nice getting the tattoo, something like a small heart would be awesome, or the word love…
Have you seen or heard of Dr. Masaru Emoto, here is a link to a YouTube video you might find interesting too. It is the reason why I suggest a heart or the word love for your tattoo

Thank you Tamera,

I tried that meditation link and fell asleep. Lol. I have a new baby so I really needed the sleep I suppose. I practiced at that party and I felt really good!! I was very grounded and I felt like my feelings were mostly my own. Thanksgiving will be another way for me to practice.
I have been Thinking about getting a small tattoo on my thumb to constantly remind me to protect myself.
I have also been .meaning to come see you. I will do that soon.
Thanks again for the advise Tamera.

Hi Stephanie,
The most important thing you can do is practice awareness. The more you practice being aware of your thoughts, feelings and actions in any given moment, the more you will be able to notice changes that may not belong to you.

So many of us get caught on “auto-pilot”, just going through the motions in our day, and when we do that we leave ourselves open to picking up whatever energy is there.

The biggest thing is practice, practice, practice. You could try leaving yourself notes around the house, or on your phone, just saying “Practice Awareness”. The more you see the notes, the more often you bring your energy back to yourself and it will remind you of where to put your focus.

Daily meditation is very helpful. The trick is to get into the habit of doing the meditations daily so that you get used to them and how it feels to be grounded and protected. Once you get into the habit of doing meditations every day, you will be able to quickly centre, ground, release, protect — literally in seconds. You will be able to picture it in your mind’s eye and ‘go to the feeling’ that you have practiced.

If you find yourself feeling uncomfortable, ask yourself “Is this me?”, if not, then do a grounding, releasing, protecting meditation.
Centering, Grounding and Protecting Your Energy

This video is one of my favourite meditations that is quick and easy. It is about 10 minutes and walks you through the process. If you could do this once a day (or 10 times a day if you need it), you will find your energy improving. Meditation Video
You do not have to watch it, you can just close your eyes and listen. It will not put you to sleep unless you are badly in need of a rest.

I have also written a book that you may find helpful The Secret of Simple Meditation.

Most of this will take a little time. It may take you a few days or weeks to get to the point where it is a ‘habit’. But in the meantime, do at least a little meditation before your party tonight and see if it helps.

Good luck, you can do it.
Love, Tamara
