Why do I absorb others’ emotions easily?

Name: Karan Desai.

Place: Mumbai, India.

I always notice that I often take others' moods and I feel drained by their energy. Like the other day I was talking with my friend and she was talking about a break up and this was very heart-wrenching for her, and she was just sharing it to me and suddenly it feels like my heart was derived, like I was feeling her sadness.

It was weird like I took her energy and negativity into me. So can I do any cleansing techniques? Which can teach me any healthy energetic boundaries, so that I do not take other's emotions too easily?
