Empaths

Are you an Empath?

Empaths are people who have the ability to sense the feelings, and thoughts of another person.

They naturally tune in to the energies around them. This ability comes with a positive and negative side.

The positive side is you are a great listener, and compassionate to the needs of others. You can sense what someone needs and be able to give it to them whether it is time alone or a shoulder to cry on.




The Downside

The negative side is that you can take on the lower energies of those around you. After being with someone or even in a crowded public place you can feel irritated or out of sorts. There are ways to cope with having this sensitivity.

Before you go to a place where you know there can be negativity or a crowded public place, shield your self by placing a purple light around you. You can ask Archangel Michael to do this for you.

It is also important to remember the best way to help someone is by staying in a positive, good place yourself. If you join the other person in their misery you now have two people feeling bad.

You can help someone by not getting caught up in their illusion or drama. Staying in your positive space and being a role model for them will help them much more than joining them where they are.


Qualities of Being an Empath

Empaths are natural peacemakers and have easygoing, loving personalities. If they find themselves in a disagreement with someone they will do their best to find a way to resolve it as quickly as possible. They tend to avoid confrontations if they can.

They are in touch with their own emotions and are able to express their feelings well. They can be non-judgemental and have an accepting nature.


Empaths Need Some Alone Time Each Day

Empaths can be social and expressive in their thoughts and feelings. However, they can also be reclusive and isolated.

Many empaths find it difficult to be in crowded or noisy places because they feel the energies so acutely it overtaxes their central nervous system.

You will find that you need your quiet time to recharge your batteries. If you are this type of individual you love nature as it helps release all your pent up emotions. You find the tranquility very peaceful to your senses.

Pets are also very good for this type of individual. Animals are unconditional love and empaths do very well when they are around this type of energy.




Ways to Protect Yourself

Many sensitive individuals who have a natural tendency to give need to learn to set boundaries and learn how to protect themselves.

To set boundaries, you need to be clear about your own needs. Make sure you take time for yourself each day to keep yourself feeling well.

To try and help someone else before you have taken care of yourself does not do you or the other person any good. It is said that even Jesus would go off for days at a time to rest and recharge himself. So, don't feel guilty about taking time for yourself. You need to take care of yourself first before you can be there for anyone else.

You can protect yourself from another person's lower energies by asking Archangel Michael to put a purple shield around you. It is a good idea to put one on if you are going to be anyplace where there are a lot of people. You need to replace the shield every 12 hours.

After spending time with a negative person, you can also ask Archangel Michael to cut your cords to someone and vacuum out any lower toxic energies you have in your body.


Best Careers

Besides having a natural talent to make others feel better, these individual are also natural artists. They make great nurses, counselors, parents, coaches, writers, artists, musicians, and teachers.

If you are an empath, and feeling lost or stuck in any way, an Akashic Record consultation could help you get your life to the place you find most rewarding.
