Compassion Without Carrying It All

Reflection

Empathy is a gift but without boundaries, it becomes a burden.

You can hold space for others without holding their pain. Protecting your emotional energy means knowing when to listen with compassion and when to let go.

You are not responsible for healing everyone. You can walk beside someone in love without carrying their story. Your role is to remain grounded in your light to be the calm in the storm, not the storm itself.

Exercise

When you feel someone’s heavy energy, close your eyes and imagine a soft golden light surrounding you.

With each breath, repeat:

“I can care deeply without carrying it all.”

This simple visualization helps you stay connected yet protected heart open, energy intact.
