Around 2015, I had an experience that completely changed the way I understand energy, intuition, and spiritual protection. It was the day I learned firsthand what a psychic attack is—and how real energetic protection is.
I was speaking at a business event, invited to share on a business topic. I’d done plenty of events like this before, but in certain circles, word of my intuitive gifts would sometimes ripple through the room. People would come up to me, curious, asking questions, sometimes even requesting quick readings.
That’s exactly what happened on this day.
One of the event hosts introduced me to a man who, upon hearing about my intuitive work, became extremely eager to talk with me. He shared that he was dealing with something he thought I could help bring clarity to. Nothing about this struck me as unusual—I’ve done thousands of readings, many of them spontaneous. I agreed to schedule a session with him later that evening.
I didn’t know it at the time, but I was walking into something that would rattle me to my core
The Blank Field
When our call began, I did what I always do—I tuned in. I energetically connected to his field to begin reading what information would surface.
And… nothing.
His field was blank.
Sometimes this happens, and I’ve learned over the years that it often means someone is subconsciously guarded or doesn’t yet feel safe enough to be read. It’s not a problem. Usually, I just ask the person for permission directly, and once they say yes, things begin to flow.
So I asked.
Nothing changed.
I expanded my energy. I asked again. Still nothing.
It was late in the day, and I thought, Maybe I’m just tired. Maybe I’m tapped out. So I suggested we reschedule for the next morning when I was rested.
He agreed, and we ended the call.
The Immediate Crash
Within ten minutes, I was freezing cold. I mean bone cold. My whole body began to ache as if I had the flu—or worse. My skin hurt. My muscles throbbed. I couldn’t warm up, even after piling on blankets and layers of clothes. I managed to get myself into a hot shower, hoping the heat would bring some relief. Nothing changed.
At this point, I told my husband something was very wrong. I said, “If I don’t feel better in 20 minutes, you need to take me to the ER. Something is happening to my body, and I don’t understand it.”
Back in bed, I struggled to find a position that would relieve some of the body pain, barely able to manage the pain. I felt like I was under attack of something deadly, and I started to feel afraid.
Then, in the struggle I heard a voice.
“Relax. Just float.”
It felt like an internal guide rising in the chaos. So I laid on my back, did my best to release the tension in my body, and focused all my effort on softening.
Then came the next instruction:
“Bubble yourself.”
Now, this wasn’t new to me. I had been “bubbling” my kids for years—imagining a protective sphere of white light around them to keep them safe. I’d done the same for family and friends when they came to mind. I didn’t know for sure if it worked. It was just something I believed in.
The Energetic Reset
Lying there, I began at my feet and slowly visualized a glowing, white bubble surrounding my entire body, like a cocoon. I focused, breathed, and wrapped myself with the intention of protection, light and love.
Within two minutes, the pain was completely gone.
G. O. N. E. Gone.
I sat up, shocked with what just happened. “I feel fine. I’m OK!” I said to myself. My body temperature regulated, the intense pain had vanished. It was like nothing had happened.
I ran to my husband and kids shouting, “BUBBLES ARE REAL!!! BUBBLES ARE REAL!!!”
It was almost laughable how immediate the shift was. But it sure wasn’t funny at the moment. It was terrifying! My husband, who had been seriously concerned just minutes before, was in total awe with me.
The Confirmation
I called a trusted psychic friend and told her everything. As soon as I described what happened to me physically, she interrupted me: “I know exactly who you’re talking about. I’ve had a similar experience. That guy has some dark energy attached to him.”
The next day, I kept the call I had scheduled with the man. Before we began, I told him plainly, “I won’t be able to read for you.”
He responded immediately.
“Let me guess. You had a psychic attack. You were in pain after we spoke.”
I was stunned. That was exactly what had happened!
He explained that this happens every time he tries to work with someone intuitive. Every. Time.
In that moment, I knew this was out of my depth. I wasn’t equipped to handle something of this magnitude, and I told him so. I suggested he seek someone who specifically works with dark entities or energetic interference.That was the last time we spoke. But he still crosses my mind from time to time, and I just pray that he found someone who could help him. (I mean, can you imagine living with something like that and having no answer.)
What Is a Psychic Attack, Really?
A psychic attack isn’t always someone sitting in a dark room casting spells. It can be unconscious. It can be subtle. It’s essentially the projection of intense negative energy from one person to another—often through obsession, envy, anger, or control.
And some people carry energies in a way that I call, attaching to their light – intentionally or not, to those who are more open or porous.
As intuitives and empaths, our job is to learn how to discern and protect our energy. To take responsibility for our field without taking on the burdens of others.
Lessons in Energetic Sovereignty
That experience taught me three things:
- Your intuition will always try to protect you – Even when you doubt yourself, the body knows. When the field goes blank, when your energy drops, when something feels “off”—that’s your cue to pause and add your protection.
- Energetic hygiene is not optional – Grounding, veiling, bubbling… These aren’t just rituals. They’re tools of survival for sensitive beings.
Not every client is yours to help – Just because you can hold space doesn’t mean you should. Discernment is as sacred as compassion.
Veiling and Bubbling: They’re Real
After this event, I became far more intentional about my energy practices. Bubbling wasn’t just something sweet I did for others. It became an active shield I used for myself.
Some days I see it as a thick, white cocoon of light. Other times, it’s a shimmering mirrored veil that reflects everything that isn’t mine. I now use these techniques before calls, in crowds, and anytime I feel even the slightest energetic pull that isn’t mine. Whether people are aware of it or not, there are individuals who carry heavy or disruptive energy—what some might call “bad juju”—that can deeply affect those around them, especially intuitive or empathic people, including those who may not yet be fully aware of their own sixth sense or energetic sensitivity.
Energetic self-care is no longer negotiable. It’s a core part of my spiritual and professional hygiene.
If You’ve Ever Felt Psychically Attacked
Maybe you’ve experienced something like this:
- Sudden exhaustion after interacting with someone
- Aches or emotional swings that don’t feel like yours
- Brain fog, dizziness, or anxiety out of nowhere
- Nightmares after being in someone’s space
These could be signs of energetic intrusion or psychic interference. You’re not imagining it.
Here’s what you can do—and remember, these tools are most effective when practiced with pure, grounded intention:
- Bubble yourself – Visualize a sphere of white or golden light around your body, starting from your feet and expanding up and around you. This bubble acts like a filter, allowing in what’s aligned and guarding what isn’t.
- Call your energy back – Intentionally call back your energy from any person, place, or situation where you may have leaked it. You can say, “I now call all my energy back to me, cleansed and restored.”
- Veil your energy – Imagine yourself cloaked in a mirrored or opaque veil. This shields your field from being read, influenced, or penetrated by outside energy.
- Ground into the Earth – Visualize roots growing from your body into the Earth, connecting deeply. Ask the Earth to transmute anything heavy, sticky, or foreign. Let her support you.
- Work with a trusted practitioner – If the energy feels complex or overwhelming, don’t go it alone. Find someone skilled in clearing, protection, or entity work who can guide you through it.
Your Energy Is Sacred
I’ll never forget that night for as long as I live.
It was terrifying and beautiful at the same time.
You don’t need to fear other people’s energy—but you do need to respect your own. You have the power to protect it, to reclaim it, and to learn from every interaction.
Bubbles are real. Protect yourself.
