We have a limited amount of energy, focus, and attention per day. 

That energy should ideally be used to attend to our personal lives and concerns, but we often take on the concerns and worries of others without knowing it. 

This depletes us, and leaves us with little left for the things that really need our attention.

Let's become aware of what it looks like to hold your own space.
To respectfully listen to another's concerns, but not absorb them as your own.
To protect your energy space.
