Hello All! I figured it's time to pull back the curtain on one of my favorite topics: Psychic Protection.
Why Psychic Protection Should Be Part of Your Daily Routine
If you were walking alone and someone tried to attack you, would you defend yourself? If you were heading into a snowstorm, wouldn’t you bundle up with layers of warm clothing? Psychic protection should be treated with the same level of urgency and intention—as a second skin that you wear before stepping out into the world, doing any kind of healing/spiritual work, or engaging in paranormal investigations.
We live in an intensely chaotic time in history. I’m based on the East Coast of the U.S., in fast-paced New Jersey—a place that can be overwhelming, even for the strongest among us. What most people don’t realize is how many unseen forces can affect our energy.
Let’s break it down:
How Our Energy Is Affected
Other People: Energy exchange is constant. From customers in the grocery store to road-raging drivers, coworkers, or even people you interact with online—others can affect your emotional and energetic state, often without even realizing it.
Spiritual or Psychic Work: Practices like meditation, energy healing, reading others' energy, or conducting paranormal investigations can all shift your energetic field.
Spirits & Haunted Objects: Spirits, lingering energies in objects or locations, and residual hauntings can all cling to your aura if you're not protected.
Nature Spirits & Elementals: Yes, even non-human entities like elementals or fae can impact your energy field.
Recognizing When You're Being Affected
It’s important to become aware of when your energy feels “off” and to identify the possible cause. Once you begin to notice patterns, you’ll be able to implement protections intentionally and instinctively. Eventually, daily protection becomes second nature—just like brushing your teeth or locking your doors.
Grounding & Protection Basics
Before diving deep into psychic shields, let’s start with simple practices to help keep your energy balanced:
-
Grounding: Spend time in nature, meditate, or take ritual baths to stay rooted.
-
Protective Tools: Use black protection salt, crystals, or talismans to safeguard your home.
-
Jewelry & Wearables: Wear protective charms, sigils, or stitched symbols to carry protection with you.
-
Smoke or Spray Cleansing: Use smudge sticks, incense, or cleansing sprays to clear lingering energy.
Start incorporating one or more of these into your daily or weekly routine—especially before doing energy work or spirit communication. It may seem subtle at first, but the difference is powerful. And when you skip it? You’ll learn quickly why it matters.
What Is Psychic Protection?
Psychic protection is mental and energetic. You can build shields using visualization, intention, and even affirmations. These shields serve to guard your mind, soul, and auric field from unwanted psychic interference or attack. I tend to use heavy metal music to help sustain my walls or shields or crystal characteristics. Other people may feel inspired by nature or armor, etc. Whatever helps you to mentally create protective barriers for yourself mixed with the power of belief, it will work.
What Is a Psychic Attack?
A psychic attack happens when your energetic space is invaded or influenced without your consent. These attacks can come from:
-
Spirits
-
Living people (in person, through technology, or even telepathically)
-
Non-human entities
When you begin practicing psychic protection, it’s like a veil is lifted. You start noticing energy drains, emotional shifts, or weird vibes for what they really are. For example, that one coworker who always leaves you feeling exhausted or irritated? That’s what we call a psychic vampire—someone who subconsciously or intentionally feeds off your energy.
Definition: A psychic vampire is a term used in folklore, the occult, and fiction to describe an individual who drains the life force or vitality of others (Wikipedia).

Why This Matters for Paranormal Investigators
If you’re walking into a space known for spiritual activity, you never know what you might encounter. Even the most benign location can house unseen energies or entities that latch onto the unprotected. Whether you’re investigating an abandoned building or doing a casual spirit box session, psychic shielding is essential.
Final Thoughts
Psychic protection isn’t fear-based—it’s empowering. When you actively guard your energy, you show up in the world more grounded, clear, and aligned. The more sensitive you are to energy, the more important it becomes to protect yourself.
So layer up—mentally, spiritually, and energetically. Your peace, vitality, and spiritual sovereignty depend on it.
