  SPEAKER_00: Welcome to the Soul to Earth Podcast.
• 0:03
  SPEAKER_00: I'm your host, Carrie Coss, a psychic energy healer and spiritual mentor.
• 0:09
  SPEAKER_00: My intention with this podcast is to walk alongside you on your spiritual path, supporting you in accessing your innate spiritual gifts in an authentic and down-to-earth way.
• 0:22
  SPEAKER_00: Making the supernatural more natural.
• 0:58
  SPEAKER_00: So I am definitely having a season in my life.
• 1:03
  SPEAKER_00: I will say that those of you that have already, you know, had your children go off to college, you'll understand when I say that you feel as though part of your heart is leaving and moving to another part of the country or the world in some cases.
• 1:18
  SPEAKER_00: And for me, it certainly feels that way, certainly.
• 1:21
  SPEAKER_00: But at the same time, I'm really proud of her and of the person that she has grown into, which is her true self.
• 1:33
  SPEAKER_00: So at some point, probably later, I'll do a couple podcasts on my journey of parenting my kids as far as integrating spirituality into that parenting, you know, relationship and the humanness of that.
• 1:49
  SPEAKER_00: Certainly, there's no perfection here or claims to having, you know, being an expert in raising children, but it'd be probably, I think, of interest to just share some of the things that have supported me and helped me to help them grow and activate their spiritual awareness for themselves as individuals.
• 2:09
  SPEAKER_00: So more about that later.
• 2:12
  SPEAKER_00: What is so exciting about this episode is we are in a seven-part series that I've been doing on really developing your intuition and creating a foundation for being able to integrate your psychic abilities into your life.
• 2:41
  SPEAKER_00: So more information about that towards the end of the podcast.
• 2:44
  SPEAKER_00: Also, feel free to reach out to me at any time if you have any questions about uh whether you you think this might be a good fit for you as a course.
• 2:54
  SPEAKER_00: And uh if you have any questions, so let's get started.
• 2:58
  SPEAKER_00: So just to kind of recap where we have been over the last four episodes.
• 3:04
  SPEAKER_00: So we started out really with a first episode talking about recognizing yourself and your consciousness as a spirit in a body, expanding your awareness of who you are, not to be limited to just the your physical body, your mind, and the experience you're having right now, but to begin to open up, you know, the floodgates of an awareness of what it's you who you are as a spiritual being in this body.
• 3:32
  SPEAKER_00: Then we talked about the four, what I like to call the four primary psychic abilities that we all innately have, and also known as the Clares.
• 3:45
  SPEAKER_00: And we talked in depth about those.
• 3:48
  SPEAKER_00: And then last session, we talked about making a connection with your higher self and also your spirit guide.
• 3:57
  SPEAKER_00: And be sure to listen to that one if you haven't.
• 4:00
  SPEAKER_00: There is a guided journey in that, which is fantastic.
• 4:04
  SPEAKER_00: And uh you can go back and use it at any time if you want to, you know, work on connecting with your higher self and your spirit guides in general.
• 4:13
  SPEAKER_00: You want to forge that relationship.
• 4:15
  SPEAKER_00: So it's really one of those ones that you can, you know, earmark in your podcast uh favorites if you're interested in doing that.
• 4:24
  SPEAKER_00: So today we are going to be talking about fortifying your energy field and keeping your space at a high vibration.
• 4:34
  SPEAKER_00: So this is such a cool topic.
• 4:37
  SPEAKER_00: Okay, so let's dive right in.
• 4:39
  SPEAKER_00: The first thing I want to say is that I'm assuming most of you listening today to this podcast have some awareness of energy and the fact that you are made of energy, everything in the universe is made of energy, everything that we can see, feel, taste, and touch, and even the things we can't see, feel, taste, and touch is made of energy.
• 5:03
  SPEAKER_00: And so when I'm referencing today, our own personal energy, this is also what I like to refer to as your energy field and also your aura.
• 5:13
  SPEAKER_00: And of course, in another later episode, I can go more into like the layers of the aura, things like that, because that's a whole nother topic, which is really important.
• 5:24
  SPEAKER_00: And and also what I find interesting is that this is something when I first began to do psychic readings many years ago, one of the first things that our teacher taught us was to read the layers of the aura and the energy field.
• 5:40
  SPEAKER_00: And really, what and I still use this and integrate this into teaching my students this because I feel like it's a really good way to begin to hone in on the different um things that affect a person's life, and all of these things that are affecting a person's life energetically are happening within their auric field because there's layers to the aura, and we will definitely talk about that in another episode.
• 6:09
  SPEAKER_00: However, today we're going to be talking about uh strengthening your energy field and fortifying your energy field.
• 6:15
  SPEAKER_00: So let's dive right in.
• 6:19
  SPEAKER_00: So the first thing I want to talk about is the difference between fortifying your energy field and protecting your energy field or your aura.
• 6:30
  SPEAKER_00: There is a lot of information out there in the new thought community about having psychic protection or having energetic protection around your aura and with your energy field.
• 6:44
  SPEAKER_00: And listen, I I actually really believe in that.
• 6:47
  SPEAKER_00: I think that we especially, you know, if you're an empathic person, if you're a sensitive person, you need to learn to make separations from um and have um boundaries when it comes to the difference between your energy and then other people's energy or that you come into contact with.
• 7:08
  SPEAKER_00: This is notably happens if you're an empathic person and let's just imagine you wake up in the morning, you're feeling great, and so you get ready for your day, whether you're going to school or work, you head out the door, and you start interacting with people and places.
• 7:24
  SPEAKER_00: And slowly, slowly throughout the day, you start feeling worse and worse.
• 7:28
  SPEAKER_00: In fact, what's happening is your energy is uh lowering its vibrations, so you're not as clear as you were when you woke up in the morning, and so chances are what has happened is you have picked up on energy and all types of energy throughout your day, and it's amassed onto your auric field or your chakras.
• 7:51
  SPEAKER_00: And there's a lot of reasons for that, which would be innumerable and too many to count just today, but we'll talk about some of them.
• 8:00
  SPEAKER_00: So it is really important to learn to protect your energy field, and some of the ways that I teach my students to do that is through grounding, which we talked about, we've talked about before.
• 8:13
  SPEAKER_00: Last week we talked about it, and also um grounding your first chakra to the center of the planet and then connecting with that earth energy, but also opening up your crown chakra at the top of your head to spiritual energy and source.
• 8:30
  SPEAKER_00: But then we took it a step further and we we lay um what I like to say are energetic roses around our energy fields, and those serve as a barrier, boundary between your energy and the energy in the world, whether it be people or locations or just energy hanging out in the ethers.
• 8:52
  SPEAKER_00: So that's super important.
• 8:54
  SPEAKER_00: But one thing I want to divert from in the protection um, you know, conversation is that honestly, if we ourselves are strong in our own energy field and in our beliefs and in our um connection to spirit, then we are have risen our vibration or raised our vibration, and so what happens is we don't take on as much energy.
• 9:25
  SPEAKER_00: It's when we still have beliefs, programming, um, and lower level thoughts within our own aura that things stick to us, and I'm gonna go into this a little bit more.
• 9:41
  SPEAKER_00: And so what I mean by stick to us is that we attract we take it on as our own.
• 9:46
  SPEAKER_00: So let's go in a little bit more into that.
• 9:49
  SPEAKER_00: So as we know, everything's energy, and energy is comes in, it has it is it comes in different expressions in our lives.
• 10:00
  SPEAKER_00: So the things like um negative emotions, programming, fear, societal pressures, and in general karma, things that we've carried with us from lifetime to lifetime, all those things can lay in wait in our chakras and our energy field, right?
• 10:24
  SPEAKER_00: So we come into this, we incarnate into these bodies, and from there we um have, you know, we are trying to navigate as spiritual beings through the density of our energy bodies, which is what I just mentioned.
• 10:40
  SPEAKER_00: And so in order to strengthen and fortify our energy fields, we need to clear out and heal these blocks of energy.
• 10:54
  SPEAKER_00: If we don't do that, or if we're not consciously moving through these denser energies, what's going to happen is because energy attracts or repels energy to it.
• 11:06
  SPEAKER_00: And so if we go through our lives and we have negative and lower thoughts about ourselves, the world, and people, rather than attract more pleasant experiences to ourselves, more high vibrational experiences to ourselves, will attract those less pleasant experiences to ourselves or more negative experiences.
• 11:30
  SPEAKER_00: And so often the idea of just putting a band-aid on our energy fields by simply saying we're going to put, you know, fortify our our excuse me, um, protect our energy fields and um create boundaries, boundaries, and barriers, that's not enough.
• 11:49
  SPEAKER_00: We need to take it a step further and do self-healing in order to have a different energetic expression so that we can be clear channels and have uh more space within our awareness for um our spiritual consciousness to reside, which is which is who we really are.
• 12:12
  SPEAKER_00: And that means that we have a higher awareness of ourselves clearly as a loving, high vibrational spiritual being in our physical experiences.
• 12:24
  SPEAKER_00: So stick with me now.
• 12:26
  SPEAKER_00: If this is not clear to you, it will it'll become clearer definitely by the end of the episode.
• 12:32
  SPEAKER_00: So it really truly goes back to um, you know, the law of attraction.
• 12:40
  SPEAKER_00: And if you haven't, you know, read any books about the law of attraction, or if you want to understand more about how that works, um, there's I can definitely recommend a few books and authors that really focus in on that.
• 12:55
  SPEAKER_00: And that it is truly one of those things that once you start to understand how energy works, it becomes so much clearer, and then you have ways in which you can um shift, change, and heal the energy the experience you're having in your life.
• 13:12
  SPEAKER_00: You take control of your own of your thoughts and um your the negative um programming that exists within your day-to-day life.
• 13:23
  SPEAKER_00: You can heal these things.
• 13:26
  SPEAKER_00: So I really like to distinguish between those things, between what it truly means to fortify your energy field from within working out, and then psychic and energy protection, which is what I just mentioned.
• 13:41
  SPEAKER_00: So you really need two, both of those things.
• 13:44
  SPEAKER_00: It's not just one thing.
• 13:46
  SPEAKER_00: And um, I know when I started, you know, doing psychic work years ago, I would I remember reacting to my environment constantly, worrying about negative energy around me and negative people, and that um it would bring my energy down, and I would feel psychically attacked and things like this.
• 14:10
  SPEAKER_00: And at some point, things pivoted for me.
• 14:27
  SPEAKER_00: And the way we did it, I thought was actually very um, I would teach my own students to do it again the same way.
• 14:34
  SPEAKER_00: It was really actually a very positive thing.
• 14:36
  SPEAKER_00: We didn't go in and force the energy out, we met it where it was, and then we would do, you know, um psychic communication with it, and then we would do these rituals to gently move the energy out, move it on its way, to transmute it.
• 14:52
  SPEAKER_00: But I remember in those days that I used to feel resistant and a little bit afraid because I was worried I was going to take on the energy of the houses that we would be clearing.
• 15:03
  SPEAKER_00: And I believe because I had that fear and I didn't trust that I was that I in fact am connected, I am source, I'm connected to source, and I'm I am a powerful spiritual being.
• 15:16
  SPEAKER_00: I think I did take on energy sometimes, but it was I believed it was it beget itself, it attracted itself, you know, to my experience because I had that fear.
• 15:28
  SPEAKER_00: And wherever we have these fears and these blocks and these doubts and these experiences, in whatever, you know, way it comes in, um, when it comes to being an intuitive empath, whether we're afraid of, you know, people throwing energy on us or going into uh going into out into the world and having some kind of a negative energetic experience or feeling like we're getting psychically attacked when we're dreaming, whatever it might be, all of those beliefs stem from fear and mistrust of yourself as being connected to source.
• 16:06
  SPEAKER_00: So rather than work from the outside in, um trying to fix the you know, the fear and the blocks that's outside of us, I like to teach my students to go within and look at your own fears, your own belief systems, your own blocks.
• 16:23
  SPEAKER_00: And then from there, you will just naturally raise in vibration.
• 16:28
  SPEAKER_00: You you will not attract that kind of energy to your experience.
• 16:32
  SPEAKER_00: And for me, that's the better alternative.
• 16:36
  SPEAKER_00: And I still hear other um, you know, psychics and intuitives who are teaching, even right now, talk a lot about being psychically attacked and um by energies and beings and things like that.
• 16:51
  SPEAKER_00: And listen, I do believe that there's a certain amount of that that you need to be really aware of that there are negative energies that we come into contact with in our in our experience here on the planet.
• 17:06
  SPEAKER_00: But at the same time, having a, you know, having a respectful fear is one thing, but being but feeling as though you're powerless is another.
• 17:16
  SPEAKER_00: So it's just something to think about because what happens with our energy field on our aura is we can actually, as we take on these fears and these beliefs, we can actually create um holes in our aura.
• 17:30
  SPEAKER_00: And we can, because of our beliefs, we can have um in an imbalanced energy field.
• 17:38
  SPEAKER_00: So everything starts from within.
• 17:41
  SPEAKER_00: So another thing you can do if you want to start, you know, first of all, taking back your power from if you're an empath that takes on people's energy, things like that, is you want to just kind of regularly and consciously check your aura.
• 17:56
  SPEAKER_00: And you can do this intuitively and just ask to be shown and ask to be, you know, to be really clear for you from your higher self and your guides if there's any places in your aura that you know need to be strengthened or fortified.
• 18:12
  SPEAKER_00: And and then jot down in your journal what those things are, and you'll feel it intuitively, and you just want to trust the first thing you get because you might have, again, you might have something like a fear, a fear of something, or uh um it's something might have to do with self-confidence or self-doubt or self-hatred, something like that.
• 18:34
  SPEAKER_00: Um, and then from there, you want to, you know, work on the thoughts and the beliefs and the energy that's causing that issue.
• 18:44
  SPEAKER_00: And then again, from there, um, you can ask your guides and your higher self to strengthen your aura and to heal that.
• 18:50
  SPEAKER_00: And these are all the things that I teach and share with my students on being able to really um you know strengthen yourself from within and uh develop a really healthy, you know, energetic system in your day-to-day experience.
• 19:09
  SPEAKER_00: So you can ask to have, you know, to look at your aura and your and your energy field, and then also you can have your guides and your higher self alert you to if there's anything that's in your energy field that would in you can put okay, that you can ask them to go ahead of you.
• 19:29
  SPEAKER_00: So you can just create this agreement.
• 19:31
  SPEAKER_00: This is actually something I taught, I've taught someone just recently.
• 19:35
  SPEAKER_00: I said you can ask for the agreement that if there's anything that is in your aura in the from in at this moment or in the future that is creating any kind of holes or um damaging experiences, that you can ask for that to be healed and ask for that to be cleared.
• 19:55
  SPEAKER_00: And this is something that what happens when we start bridging our relationship with our spirit guides and our higher self, that we can ask them to help us in a variety of ways, especially because let's face it, we're all not completely conscious all the time.
• 20:11
  SPEAKER_00: We're on this earth, right?
• 20:12
  SPEAKER_00: So we have these denser bodies and uh energetic experiences, and so connecting with our guides and our higher self and asking to be made aware of things that we want to be made aware of or for help or protection or any type of positive experience we want to have, we can ask them for that assistance.
• 20:32
  SPEAKER_00: And so it's it's like a partnering.
• 20:36
  SPEAKER_00: Okay, so the last thing I want to talk about is a really quick tip on we'll which we'll go through again on how to clear out your energy field and your aura if you're going throughout your day, especially as you're learning to raise your vibration and clear out blocks and things like that.
• 20:55
  SPEAKER_00: And it's very simple.
• 20:58
  SPEAKER_00: You can do one of two things.
• 21:00
  SPEAKER_00: The first one is in front of you, you can just imagine that there's a beautiful clear crystal bubble.
• 21:06
  SPEAKER_00: And in that clear crystal bubble, you can ask for anything that's blocking you, obstructing you, or clogging up your energy field to just be gently removed and put into that crystal clear bubble.
• 21:20
  SPEAKER_00: And as you do that, again, you're working in partnership with your higher self to do this work, just your intention and asking for this aligns you with the energy of the universe to be able to orchestrate this healing because you are a powerful creator, and so you can manifest these types of experiences.
• 21:41
  SPEAKER_00: And once you feel, just allow that um crystal ball to do that work for you, to remove it.
• 21:47
  SPEAKER_00: And then once you feel like it's full, you might need to.
• 21:52
  SPEAKER_00: You can just imagine that it is blowing up and disintegrating.
• 21:56
  SPEAKER_00: And it's what it's doing when that happens is you're neutralizing energy.
• 22:00
  SPEAKER_00: You're being your own alchemist, and you've done that, and then what you want to imagine is that above your head there's a beautiful white golden sun, and it's full of anything that you want to replace it with because you've just neutralized that energy.
• 22:13
  SPEAKER_00: So you want to fill it with clarity, certainty, self-love, conviction, whatever it is.
• 22:19
  SPEAKER_00: And then as you do that, imagine it's coming into your energy field and in your body, and it's filling up any of these spaces where the old beliefs or energy reside.
• 22:31
  SPEAKER_00: So that way it's just this exchange and amplification of energy where you're shifting from you know having these blocks into a higher state of awareness, right?
• 22:44
  SPEAKER_00: And so from there, you can play around with that.
• 22:47
  SPEAKER_00: I use roses a lot, as I've mentioned.
• 22:49
  SPEAKER_00: Um, that's what I teach my students to use a put a row, imagine there's a rose in front of you and it's grounded, and that anything that's blocking you is moving into that rose.
• 22:57
  SPEAKER_00: It's the same thing.
• 22:59
  SPEAKER_00: You imagine it's blowing up, and then you fill yourself up with a beautiful golden sun full of whatever your intentions are.
• 23:06
  SPEAKER_00: The other thing that I want to talk about in this episode as well is the concept of energy high, keeping your energy at a higher vibration.
• 23:18
  SPEAKER_00: So, as you have probably heard, it's well known that it's having a higher vibration and a higher energy vibration does not first of all, it doesn't mean high is good, low is bad.
• 23:32
  SPEAKER_00: That's not what we're talking about.
• 23:34
  SPEAKER_00: And there are some days when you do feel in the midsts of a very human experience, and your emotions are a beautiful thing, your feelings are a beautiful thing, and we don't want to classify them as being good or bad, high or low.
• 23:51
  SPEAKER_00: There's simply just an experience that's moving through you.
• 23:54
  SPEAKER_00: So this is really, we're not talking about the human experience and emotions here.
• 23:59
  SPEAKER_00: What we're talking about is when we talk about high energy versus low energy, really has more to do with proximity to the light.
• 24:10
  SPEAKER_00: And proximity to the light is going to be a higher vibration, and everything in the universe has a frequency, it has a range of energetic vibrations, so it can either be further away from the light or it can be closer, and it that when it's closer, it vibrates higher and faster.
• 24:35
  SPEAKER_00: And when anything is higher and faster, it has the ability to manifest more quickly, and manifest in a variety of ways.
• 24:44
  SPEAKER_00: If you're talking about a human experience, you're talking about being able to manifest your desires, being able to have a healthy body and vibrate in a higher vibration, being able to move through fear and density, being able to manifest the career you want, the relationship you want, the experiences you want.
• 25:08
  SPEAKER_00: So that in a in a nutshell, that when we're talking about high vibration, that's what we're talking about.
• 25:14
  SPEAKER_00: When we're stuck in a lower vibration or a denser vibration, it's almost like you're trying to walk through mud.
• 25:22
  SPEAKER_00: Um, it's harder to manifest, it affects your health, it affects your mindset, affects your emotions, meaning clogged emotions.
• 25:32
  SPEAKER_00: It keeps you stuck in an experience.
• 25:35
  SPEAKER_00: And so what happens is as a reflection of less light, it's harder to experience those things that are more enjoyable at a higher vibration.
• 25:44
  SPEAKER_00: So when we talk about vibration, that's what we're talking about.
• 25:49
  SPEAKER_00: The thing I'm also trying to really instill is that, you know, when or is you know, a lot of people talk about shadow work and um and I, these are all the things I I want to separate because there's so much value and importance of doing shadow work and moving through your emotions and your traumas and your experience.
• 26:11
  SPEAKER_00: That's a whole nother thing.
• 26:13
  SPEAKER_00: So I don't want to cut that out completely and then be disingenuous and just talk about being high vibe all the time, all the time.
• 26:21
  SPEAKER_00: We're really just explaining how energy works and we're getting an education on how we open up our intuitive abilities so that we can have a clearer understanding of an experience of being connected to this higher vibration, which is source, which is who you are.
• 26:43
  SPEAKER_00: So that is going that is gonna finalize our class today.
• 26:46
  SPEAKER_00: This has been so much fun.
• 26:48
  SPEAKER_00: I should rather say podcast, it's the teacher and me always wanting to, you know, talk about these things.
• 26:54
  SPEAKER_00: And so I just want to say if this is something that really interests you, if you're really feeling a connection to wanting to explore these types of topics and also be able to learn to do readings and connect in with energy even greater to have a better, clear understanding, first of all of just your human experience, but also if you're just interested in general in doing readings for yourself and others, please go ahead and check out the course.
• 27:23
  SPEAKER_00: We are having so much fun.
• 27:26
  SPEAKER_00: We are now meeting live twice a month, and we're gonna begin to do readings very soon.
• 27:32
  SPEAKER_00: So it's exciting, and you're not only doing readings for others, you're receiving readings.
• 27:37
  SPEAKER_00: So it just encapsulates all of you know this experience that we're talking about together when it comes to all these different topics on fortifying your intuitive development.
• 27:47
  SPEAKER_00: So let me tell you a little bit about next week's podcast.
• 27:51
  SPEAKER_00: We're actually going to be talking about the importance of keeping a journal and keeping track of your spiritual experiences and also uh when you're meditating, your reflections and the things that come up for you and the messages you receive during those times of spiritual opening.
• 28:12
  SPEAKER_00: I can't wait for the next episode.
• 28:16
  SPEAKER_00: And I hope you guys all have an amazing week.
• 28:18
  SPEAKER_00: Take good care.
