Hi Shawn, thank you for your advice and everyone else also. I have taken it all on board.

Hi Little boat, sorry about the overflowing emotions, its just a part of releasing them. When I lift for people I always get them to take on what they can handle and I'll take on the rest. It use to wipe me out sometimes but it doesn't seem to affect me anymore. Only when I go into a crowd of people, but the more you lift for others the stronger you get.

The other night I went to the pictures and I held my hands in that circle position that stops people taking your energy. It really worked. I felt fine after being in the crowd, first time in over a year.

My husband has been doing the shopping because I get too wiped out.Does anyone know if there is another way? Would just imagining your hands like that work as well because you need your hands to shop. I haven't experimented because I haven't wanted to sacrifice my strength for the day.

Thank you all for sharing your knowledge

Love and Smiles
Jenny
