“It is such a blessing and a curse to feel everything so deeply.” Unknown
Empathy is emotional intelligence. This intelligence is spreading far and wide around the world, in the hearts and minds of many. As this wave of emotional intelligence grows, the rise of the empath has begun.
An empath is highly attuned to the emotions/energy of others. They feel everything in their environment: the people they connect with, the places they visit. As their intuition is so highly developed, they are less likely to apply logic to their feelings. They have a natural ability to see through the eyes of another, to stand in their shoes and extend understanding and compassion, not sympathy or judgment.
It sounds wonderful, but many empaths struggle, as they don’t realise they have this gift and/or don’t know how to control it. It’s not something that develops. It is a state of being.
This gift is often a blessing and a curse until the empath learns to control their ability to feel others’ energy and to hold and protect their boundaries.
Emotions are energy, and the curse comes from being energetically open to the environment around them; the good, the bad and the ugly, without an off switch. An empath is like a sponge as they soak up everything around them. They often feel emotionally out of balance and exhausted for no apparent reason.
An empath that is out of balance is ultimately unable to control and use their gift.
If you are an empath, you may have experienced the following:-
Feel emotionally overwhelmed and drained for no reason.
Feel the physical discomfort and ailments of others in your own body.
You may have been through emotional turmoil where your physical, mental and/or emotional boundaries were overstepped.
You may have experienced a difficult childhood environment.
The people around you have a strong impact on your energy and emotions. This could be in a positive and/or negative way.
You may have suffered from physical illnesses, which have left your Doctors scratching their heads for a possible cause.
You are vulnerable to emotional manipulation from others.
You find it difficult to say no.
On a more positive note, you may also have experienced the following:-
You can empathise and show deep understanding, compassion and love to others.
A free spirit at heart, you will have a creative and rebellious streak with a natural curiosity for life.
You experience a sense of knowing, perhaps even precognitive visions, and feel spiritual presences around you.
You can feel past events, in the present, in rooms/places.
You are a natural healer.
You feel love and compassion for animals and nature.
I’m Samantha, and I’m a Life Coach and Usui Reiki Master.
I have been an empath since childhood.
Over the course of my childhood and early adult life, until I entered my thirties, I was a sponge soaking up the energy of other people and the atmosphere, whilst leaking my energy left, right and centre.
I was unable to use my gift effectively, as I was constantly exhausted and drained.
Whilst training as an Energy Healer, I developed my gift and turned the curse into a blessing. I now use this gift in my work as a Coach and Healer.
A large number of my clients work with me to develop control and enhance their gift of empathy through working on their boundaries and self-care.
From my experiences of developing my gift and teaching others to turn their gift into a blessing, I have developed the Wild Empath self-study e-course, to help you to control and develop your gift of empathy in the comfort of your own home. I also offer Zoom Coaching Sessions to anyone in any location, if you would like to work with me on a one-to-one basis.
