In this quietly illuminating episode of In Your Element, Kathleen Kenneally explores the often-invisible impact of energetic boundaries—how we absorb emotions, moods, and even physical sensations that aren’t ours, and what it takes to come back to center. With gentle wisdom and clinical insight, she re-frames boundaries not as walls, but as essential energetic containers that allow the body to relax, process, and ultimately heal.
Kathleen introduces simple tools to help listeners check in with themselves and reclaim their space, from asking “Is this mine?” to visualizing protective bubbles or expanding your own energy outward. She also explains how acupuncture treatments often reveal these entanglements—when a symptom clears almost instantly once a patient reconnects with their own energy. The episode touches on how we’re conditioned to overfunction, override our inner signals, and mistake emotional absorption for compassion. The conversation also grazes the topic of “energy vampires” and how even well-meaning people can affect our field if we’re not grounded in our own.
Whether you identify as an empath, a helper, or someone just trying to stay grounded in a noisy world, this episode offers a refreshing reminder: your energy is yours—and you get to decide what stays. To learn more or book a session, visit kenneallyacupuncture.com.
