How to Create an Energetic Protection Wrap
Have you ever found yourself stuck thinking about an encounter with another person that happened hours or even days ago? This happens when we allow the energy of a person and situation into our energy field.
You may not be able to change how other people act, but you can choose what you allow into your energy field. And an energetic protection wrap enables you to do just that by setting boundaries around your energy field to allow in your highest good and keep out lower energy. Here is my step-by-step process to create an energetic protection wrap:
Step 1: Set Boundaries, Ground & Connect
If you have a few moments, I recommend setting boundaries, grounding and connecting to source energy before doing any visualization work. Once you’ve done this a few times, you can do it quickly in your mind before proceeding with the protection wrap creation process that follows in step 2.
To assist you with this process, follow the steps inside the How to Connect With Spirit article. I use these steps anytime I do visualization work.
Step 2: Ask for Assistance
Ask your spiritual team (the guides and angels who are here to support you) to assist you with the creation of your energetic protection wrap. I like to ask my spiritual team and Archangel Michael (the protection angel).
Note: You do not have to see or feel them to receive assistance. Simply ask for their help, and trust that they are there assisting you.
Step 3: Visualize the Energetic Protection Wrap
Visualize golden/white energy coming down from above around you. See this energy wrapping around your entire aura and grounding cord. I like to work my way from the top, at my head and downwards towards my feet and grounding cord.
Note: If there is another colour that you are drawn to, use that instead. Follow your intuition; it knows what you need.
Searching for a book about energetic cords and how they affect your energy? I’ve got you covered! I recommend checking out Energy Strands by Denise Linn!
Step 4: State Your Intention
Now that you have placed the protection wrap around yourself, it’s time to set your boundaries. To do this, state your intention of what energy you will allow in and what energy you intend to keep out.
You can say something along the lines of: “With this protection wrap, I intend to keep out any lower energies while still allowing in high vibrational energy or any energy that’s in alignment with my highest good. All lower energy will be diverted down into the centre of the earth, where it is neutralized.”
Note: I do not recommend that you bounce any energy back to a sender. It’s best to release the energy down into the centre of the earth, where it can be neutralized and then intend it goes back where it belongs, cleansed.
Step 5: Set a Timeframe
When you create the protection wrap, it’s a good idea to set a timeframe for it to be in place, as I do not recommend shielding yourself constantly. As you state your intention, you can add in the timeframe that you’d like the protection wrap to be active. You can say, “please keep this protection wrap around me until I get home from work, or for however is best for my highest good.”
You can use the protection wrap as a preventative. For example, I like to apply an energetic protection wrap when I know I will be in a challenging environment or before I leave my house to do errands.
The protection wrap can also be an immediate assistant when a situation calls for it. For example, if I encounter another person or an earthbound spirit that doesn’t feel great energetically, I will activate a protection wrap at that moment. After these encounters, remember to take a moment to clear out the lower/foreign energy that was allowed into your space before you applied the wrap.
An energetic protection wrap does not last forever. When you create the timeframe for the protection wrap, I find it works best within 24 hours. If one is required for a more extended period of time, then I would reapply the wrap.
Step 6: Thank your spiritual team
Whenever you ask for assistance from your spiritual team, always be sure to thank them after any task in which you requested assistance.
And that’s it. That’s my step-by-step process to create an energetic protection wrap. Once you have visualized the wrap a few times, you will be able to implement it within seconds. Remember, you have the power to choose who and what you let into your energy field.

I usually surround myself in Golden Light for protection. I have this meditation that I do that has me put a white bubble around me followed by a purple bubble around the white bubble. Then it finishes off by putting a Golden Light around the purple bubble. I was told that most negative energies cannot get through this 3 layers of protection.
That is a great & strong protection wrap – I am glad you found something that works for you! The electric blue protection wrap is something I can use on the go within a couple of seconds and it’s there. I love it because it reminds me of my intention of keeping everything out, and it works 99.9% of the time for me. However, layering up like the method you use is definitely useful depending on the negative energies around. And you are correct – I find that each colour will have different protective qualities. White which holds all colour in it – is a very powerful protection energy. Thank you for sharing Sandra :). I am sure others will find this very helpful as well!
Hello! I am curious as to whether this is common(?). Its only been in the last few years that I have taken an “active” interest in learning more about Spirit and the Divines (my name for God/Goddess). During my studies I have of course learnt various different techniques for protecting oneself against negative energy/entities as well as different rituals that involve energy (I have been following Wiccan principles and beliefs as a solitary practitioner).
One of my earliest memories is of something “odd” happening while I was in bed, at night. I was not sleeping. I was on my knees in the middle of my bed. All I can recall is (to my 3yr old mind) “monsters”. It was like I was in the middle of a tornado with these things whipping around me. I passed out in fear. I have never got that outa my mind. I know it was a significant moment, but why? Now, that being said, when I was between ages 5-9 there was a painting that hung in my room. I was convinced that “ghosts” came out of it. The “ghosts” were always in the form of light (as an adult I would say “orbs”). Every night I would lay in bed and in my head I would visualize a bubble that went from my head down to my feet and then underneath all the way back up, encasing my teddy and I inside of it. I did this to protect teddy and I from the “ghosts”. I was raised Catholic, so there was no way for me to just pick it up somewhere or from someone. Also, as a child and teen (even as an adult), I loved being in the light of the full moon. I would lay in bed or even outside on the ground and just literally, soak it up. There are many other “little odd things” that I am now learning are actually formal (for lack of a better word) rituals (Drawing down the Moon or casting protective “bubble” of white light). I guess I’m seeking validation of some sort….have others experienced this too???
I appreciate any time and attention to my question. Thank you!
Bright Blessings!

Hi Sarah,
I’m sorry for the delay in response. Yes I believe that is common. I was one of those children that had my feet tucked in, and held the cover over my head for most of the night because I was afraid. I often saw spirits passing through. And one specific one coming out of my closet into the hall every night. Night is the perfect time for a spirit to contact you, because it is quiet and you can sense any subtle noises at that time. Children are more likely to have their spiritual abilities open. And if you are open to sensing spirits, all spirits will come your way trying to get your attention whether they are from the light or earthbound spirits. This is when boundaries need to be set. You can decide who you would like to interact with, where in your home, and the times, etc. Unfortunately, I only learned this as an adult. But I can say it works.
With regards to your rituals that you have known before learning about them. I like to think of that as you remembering them rather than learning them. You most likely used those rituals in previous lifetimes, and it came naturally to you. With claircognizance (clear knowing) you could have also been receiving spiritual information in the way of ideas. You are not alone.
These are interesting experiences! Thank you for sharing them.
With love,

For myself, I either smudge myself with sage, and always carry a Palo Santo stick. I am an Empath, so I am a magnet for negativity from every realm. Found a quicker method, in a mini spray bottle, Frankience, Myhrr, Sandle wood essential oils, and a tiny cupful of Florida water, added with a black tourmaline stone, it may sound extensive, but I must use it all day long, as the bubble of protection does not work for me, due to having ADHD
I love that spray idea. It’s great that you found a method that works for you!
This is amazing. I actually live with someone that always has lower energy and lately, since I’ve started my spiritual awakening, I’ve been incredibly sensitive to her energy and it’s draining!!! I’ve had to leave the room a few times LOL. This is a quick method I can use to help protect myself. Thank you!
Hi Hanna,
I am so happy this article was helpful to you! Thank you for your kind words! I hope you have some sacred space of your own, so you can recharge and replenish your energy <3
With Love,
