However, communication and mastering true connection is definitely a major part of the soul's journey- and typically a challenging lesson to master. You live in a time when being able to 'connect' has never been easier. Yet, most people hardly experience true connection anymore. Why is this? Rewind 40 years. Imagine who you'd be around....

And that if people around you drain you beyond your metaphorical, tank balance minimum - and you're unaware, your in danger of running on empty. That highlights a dire need to measure your energy.
