In this episode of Spirit of an Athlete, host Amanda Smith introduces the concept of bubble work, a practice she favors for managing one's personal energy. She explains the difference between sympaths, who feel energy around them sympathetically, and empaths, who can feel and control this energy. Smith discusses her personal journey of learning about energy management from her teachers, Cable Jones and Mellissa Seaman, emphasizing how bubble work can transform a sympath into an empath. She guides listeners through a detailed visualization exercise to create and maintain their energy bubble, explaining its benefits for discerning one's energy from others and setting personal boundaries without verbal communication. The practice is posited as a daily ritual for grounding, protecting, and empowering oneself in social spaces. Smith encourages listeners to engage with the practice and share their experiences, highlighting the importance of social connections for a healthy life and offering personal consultations for further guidance.
