Today I’m sharing my technique, inspired by various sources, for creating your energetic protection bubble. Shell, shield, call it whatever you like, as long as it resonates with you and it works.
The essentials
- We create our protection once and for all, then reactivate it as needed.
- The creation happens in an Alpha state, a state of deep relaxation.
- We visualize an oval bubble of light and love that encompasses the body and the aura.
- We close it by “zipping” it shut, mentally or with a gesture, with intention.
Creating your protection once and for all
Before, I would visualize a new protection every time, without thinking twice, and close it up like with a zipper. Serge Boutboul recommends instead keeping always the same protection, reactivating it and closing it as needed (according to him, it stays active for about 3 hours). It strengthens over time this way, which I find very logical.
My technique for creating the shield
- Get into an Alpha state, a relaxed state that allows you to connect with and act on the subtle planes.
- Visualize your body in the third person, as in an astral projection, to see it in its entirety.
- Visualize a transparent bubble, filled with love and pure light, where all negativity automatically recycles into love upon contact.
- Give it an oval shape that encompasses your physical body and your entire aura.
- As Serge Boutboul advises, leave a small opening a few centimeters wide facing the third eye, to keep your subtle perceptions open.
This visualization creates protection on the subtle plane against energy vampirism and negative energies that might try to attach themselves to the subtle bodies. Remember that every thought is creative: the clearer your visualization, the stronger it is.
Reactivating and closing your bubble daily
Whenever you need to, visualize this shield around you and close it up: by zipping it closed, like sliding doors or a metal shutter, whichever speaks to you. You can do this mentally or by miming the gesture, putting all your intention into it.
Frequently asked questions
How long does energetic protection last?
According to Serge Boutboul, about 3 hours. Which is why it’s important to reactivate and close it regularly.
Do you need to create a new bubble every time?
No. It’s better to keep the same protection and reactivate it: it strengthens over time.
