Do you feel like you’re doing everything right—you’re working hard, you’re trying to stay positive—but you still feel drained, stressed, or like you’re pushing against constant resistance?
Many people assume "energy leaks" only look like physical exhaustion. I know that your energetic flow impacts your finances, your time, and your opportunities. Energetic scarcity often shows up as financial scarcity.
At The Merry Medium, I teach that you can stop this drain. When you actively manage your inner vitality, you stop unconsciously pushing prosperity away.
Here are the three most common energetic leaks I see and how to plug them right now:
1. The "Should-Have" Leak: Holding onto the Past
This leak is caused by the heavy energy of regret, resentment, or "what ifs" from the past. You spend today’s energy mentally rehashing an old argument, worrying about a decision you can't change, or feeling guilty about a mistake. This constant inner friction creates a heavy vibrational drag.
-
How it Drains Your Bank: If you are energetically stuck in the past, you cannot be fully present to see new opportunities or make clear, aligned decisions for your future. You are investing your most valuable currency (attention) in a dead-end account (the past).
-
The Plug: Practice Active Forgiveness. You don't have to forgive the other person, but you must forgive yourself for holding the heavy emotion. Try the "Mental Hand-Off"—whenever the regret surfaces, visualize handing the memory over to a river or fire to be released. This simple visualization reclaims your current energy.
2. The "What-If" Leak: Borrowing Trouble from Tomorrow
This is the energy of future anxiety and worry, particularly about money, health, or failure. We try to solve problems that don't even exist yet, using up all the emotional vitality we need to conquer today's tasks. The energy of worry is the energy of attraction working in reverse: you are focusing on scarcity.
-
How it Drains Your Bank: Future anxiety paralyses action. You procrastinate on important projects, delay investments, or avoid promoting your services because you're too tired from mentally battling a crisis that hasn't happened.
-
The Plug: Anchor to the Present. Use a quick 5-minute meditation hack to pull your attention back to your immediate surroundings. When you focus on what is true and safe right now (the ground under your feet, the air in your lungs), you instantly stop the future drain.
3. The "Compassion Fatigue" Leak: Lack of Energetic Boundaries
As a nurse, I know this one intimately. This leak is caused by being over-responsible for other people's emotional well-being. You feel drained after conversations, you say "yes" when you mean "no," and you absorb the heavy emotions of those around you. You've forgotten the importance of putting on your own oxygen mask first.
-
How it Drains Your Bank: If your energy is constantly spent supporting others, you have zero motivation left to support your own growth, creative projects, or self-promotion. You are giving away your inner capital for free.
-
The Plug: Conscious Shielding. Before a difficult interaction or entering a busy environment, visualize a loving, protective bubble of white or golden light around your entire body. Set the firm intention: "I only accept light and love; all other energy is gently reflected to its source." This simple act creates an invisible, professional boundary.
