194. How to Stop Absorbing Other People’s Emotions & Protect Your Own

Ever walk into a room and instantly feel the weight of someone else's sadness? Me too! Today I’m talking about practical steps to protect your energy and not pick up what others are putting down.

Key topics:

• Galatians 6:2 - "Carry one another's burdens"
• The difference between carrying WITH someone vs. carrying FOR someone
• How to steward your sensitivity as a gift, not a burden

Practical Steps for Energy Protection:

1. Recognize - Notice when emotions aren't yours (taking your temperature before/after interactions)
2. Pray for them - Use your sensitivity to pray more specifically for others
3. Release it - Pray for protection and ask God to remove what isn't yours
4. Reset - Take action to recalibrate (walk, water, music, movement)

Action Steps:

• Before your next difficult conversation, take note of how you're feeling
• Practice the pray-release-reset method when you absorb others' energy
• Identify relationships that consistently drain you and prepare accordingly
• Set healthy boundaries around news and social media consumption
