Forget resolutions, vision boards, and planners—let’s talk about something that can truly transform your life in 2025: your energetic bank account.
Caroline Myss says we’re all energetic bankers, constantly making deposits and withdrawals. The problem? Most of us are running on empty, weighed down by invisible sandbags that keep us stuck. No matter how much effort (hot air) we pour in, we stay stagnant.
Are You Running on Empty?
If you’re a high-achiever, this might sound familiar:
✅ When you’re stressed, you work harder.
✅ You double down on helping others, even when it drains you.
✅ You push through exhaustion, sacrificing sleep, exercise, or downtime.
✅ You cut corners with family or yourself, thinking you’ll “fix it later.”
Here’s the paradox: You don’t need more effort. You need to drop the weight.
The Drain of Invisible Sandbags
Every energy drain—unresolved resentment, toxic relationships, misaligned commitments—is like a sandbag on a hot air balloon.
🔥 You can keep feeding the flame (working harder, planning more), but until you release those weights, you’ll stay exactly where you are.
What if you started dropping the sandbags instead?
The Energy Audit: Find & Fix Your Drains
📝 Grab a pen and paper and draw two columns:
Column 1: What Fills Me with Energy
(Examples: long walks, deep talks, creative projects, connecting with aligned people)
Column 2: What Drains Me of Energy
(Examples: overpacked schedules, toxic relationships, poor sleep, people who take more than they give)
Now, list everything in your life. What lifts you up? What pulls you down?
The Transformational Shift: Drop One Drain
Once you’ve identified your energy drains, the only thing you need to do is:
🚀 Pick one drain and let it go.
It could be:
✅ A habit you’ve outgrown.
✅ A relationship that feels one-sided.
✅ A commitment that no longer aligns with your values.
Why just one? Because the moment you release even one sandbag, something magical happens:
✨ Things that felt impossible suddenly become achievable.
✨ Opportunities appear out of nowhere.
✨ You feel lighter, more creative, and more powerful.
