One of my favorite Energy Medicine Tools that I use and teach is Zipping Up!
- Have you ever had a conversation with someone and felt like they hit you in the gut?
- Have you noticed someone either look you up and down or give you a dirty look and then you didn’t feel well?
- Do you pick up on other people’s feelings.
A simple technique from Donna Eden can help you protect yourself!
The subtle energy of your hand creates protection to your Central Nervous System. Take a deep breath as you do this and trust that you are protected.

Practice this several times today and create the habit! It is amazing.
I definitely pick up on the energy of others, which is why it’s sometimes difficult being in crowds. Thanks for sharing your zipping up technique! I imagine it helps diminish that yucky feeling that at times we just can’t shake!
It is so helpful Meghan. Another tool I use is pulling my energy in around me. It is like a balloon of energy (aura) around us. Pull it in 6 – 8 inches and it helps us from not picking up other people’s energy.
I have had that feeling of being hit in the gut by someone’s words, Candess. I hate it because it makes you feel so vulnerable. I had never heard of ‘zipping up’ before but I will surely try it in the future. It seems such an easy way to protect yourself.
Tamuria, it is so simple and so effective. Later I will do a video that shows more how this works and how when we are zipped up others match our strong energy!
thanks so much for sharing…I used to do this Zipping Up technique and totally forgot about it…it was nice to be reminded…
Sharona, I am happy you are reconnecting with it. It can make such a big difference.
I’m definitely someone who picks up on others’ energy, good or bad. It’s frustrating being susceptible to someone else’s mood or issues and the energy emitted, so I’m going to give your zipping up method a try.
Jennifer I do hope you try this and notice the difference. I especially zip up when I go to a mall or a public building. Helps so much!
I can definitely use the zipping up when I’m dealing with negative people. This is going to be so useful and helpful in the coming months. Great info.

And as I’m typing here, I’m reminded of the thing I did around fear, negative thoughts and other negative energy. I would visualize a pink balloon, put those unwanted energies inside them, tie them up with a nice ribbon and let it float away. It’s amazing how much better I felt after that.
Happy to hear that Claudette. Sometimes we get the best help from tools that are so simple!
Candess, I use the zipping up technique to preserve my energy and it works! With so many resources and tips out there about energy, sometimes I forget the tools in my toolkit. Thanks for sharing this video and reminding me of this powerful exercise. I also use the unzipping process when I want to open my heart more:-)
Tandy happy to hear you have an energy toolkit! So often what we can do to support our health and energy is so simple!
