Chain Mail - Permeable Protection

When you feel everything
- Chain Mail (2 minutes)

Some people don’t just notice how others are feeling — they feel it.

The tension in a room. Someone else’s stress, sadness, urgency, or disappointment.
It can land straight in your body before you’ve had a chance to think. If that’s you, you’re not doing anything wrong. You’re not “too sensitive.”

The challenge isn’t caring too much —
it’s losing the boundary between what’s yours and what isn’t.

This short micro tool offers a way to stay open and compassionate
without absorbing everything around you.

It’s not about shutting down or hardening. It’s about gentle separation — so you can care without carrying.
