Human Design and Energy Leaks
Different Human Design types experience energy drains in distinct ways:
Generators & Manifesting Generators: Pouring energy into work or commitments they don’t actually love
Projectors: Trying to keep up with the pace of others instead of honoring their natural rhythm
Manifestors: Forcing themselves to explain or justify every move rather than trusting their inner authority
Reflectors: Taking on everyone else’s energy and forgetting to give themselves space to reset
