Energy Suckers

Or as some refer to as Psychic Vampires, those that suck all the energy out of you.

I had two yoga students I finally had to sit down with and explain that I did not feel I was the right teacher for them. I physically became ill prior to teaching them and drained after. My teacher explain to me that they were probably sucking my energy, the light. Another good reason for protecting self.

Someime I can get the same sensation just walking by a stranger, and also with some clients...which I then need to refer on.

Any one else have this experience?

This is one of the biggest problems I encounter every day.  It starts about mid-day and doesn't stop still he goes to bed.  I'm working on shielding myself and I can actually feel I'm not allowing him to take my energy during his "happy hour time".  It's never happy. :(

That is tough

You could practice using the DISCO BALL.........you may need a full body one....it works amazingly well.....all the little mirrors bounce the attempts to energy suck, and it also sends negative energy right back to the person......that disco ball is a powerful tool q13  q13 and for even more effect you can send out white light from within q18

I read a couple of great books about cause and effecy on this subject

Hands of Light: Guide to Healing Through the Human Energy Field by Barbara Ann Brennan and Jos A. Smith

Light Emerging: The Journey of Personal Healing by Barbara Ann Brennan and Gabriel Molano

I actually know someone who knows that she does it and she does it intentionally.  I am well aware of her so she doesn't do it to me but she can literally suck the life out of someone who is unsuspecting.   q10
the hermit

I don't believe anyone does it accidentally
Not for more than a short time
They see an angle and use it

I agree, so often it is a bid for attention and for some even negative attention is better than none at all.  Protection, sheilding, any means possible should be used to keep that negativity at bey.

Ack! I would hope I never do that! I prefer to give than take. How would I know if I were doing it on accident?

How would I know someone was stealing mine?

I'm afraid I'm open and don't seem to wonder if others are out to harm or take from me. I guess because I would not think of doing something to someone else, I don't concieve that they'd do it to me. No wonder I'm always getting hurt!

I have had this happen on many occasions - usually a definite "disconnect" from you will work.  However, I quite recently did distant healing (his Mum said that he couldn't take 'hands-on') on a young man(30 ish) who has severe health and mental problems.  The first healing went on for about an hour and I really felt things move - BUT - after that my strength gradually depleted.  Apparently, because he hadn't experienced healing before, he welcomed the energy so much that he sent out suckers to my aura that helped themselves.
However, I was given a fantastic meditation that released the suckers.
If anyone would like a copy, I will PM you with it.  It really works - instantly.

I love to read the meditation also.  Please PM me...

My wife did it for a time and I explained to her that when we had a break (we both work in the same factory), she  came for her break on a low, I came for my break feeling quite normal and she always left feeling much better, yes i said, but I was feeling a lot worse after the break than when I arrived
I explained what was happening, showed her a book (see above posting by me) and then it all made sence to her

Problem over (for now)

I think as far as partners are concerned - we are usually willing to share our energy if required.  Its when the person who takes it isn't aware they are doing so.  Hubby and I help each other out when required.  
However, there are some people who never learn to connect with the Universal Energy to top up, and ALWAYS suck energy from others  you know the sort - 'poor me, I've got so and so wrong with me, please feel sorry for me and give me your energy'.  
Its  like in healing.  We have had clients in the past who were willing for us to heal them - but were not willing to take the next step and learn to look after themselves.  Its like them having fallen down a deep well. We offer them the ladder to get themselves out, but don't jump down with them.  If they choose to stay down the well and use the 'poor me' syndrome to get their energy, then that is their own free will.

EXACTLY so Gillie!   They have to listen, to hear when someone is trying to let them know they do this and then take a path towards not doing it and making themselves better and in that everyone is better!  Love the ladder analogy!

EXCELLENT post Gillie.  I also like your ladder in the well analogy. Makes a lot of sense.

Vampires............they aren't something from movies .......they are real and walk among us.

They walk amongst us
And they know what they do
They are the people who need to be around people
Not because the like anyone
They are usually quite bubbly
And attract many people around them

I think there are different kinds of energy vampires.........

One, Hermie described.  Another are the needy ones. For them, nothing ever seems to be going right for them!  

The outgoing ones are more sneekie, IMO. I know someone like that and I used to come away from her always feeling drained, exhausted. I'm trying to shield myself now.  

What's sad is that I think she pulls from her own kids too.......(I just suddenly thought of that.)  Her kids always seem tired.
