The Proof is in the Empath Pudding

Two weeks ago my husband and I went to a concert at a very crowded venue. Even though we arrived an hour before the musicians took the stage, there was standing room only and we didn't get a table or a seat. We stood elbow to elbow for three hours, submerged in the collective field of at least 500 people. As an empath, I admit I was concerned about whether or not I would pick up detrimental energy from this situation.

I have been raising my soul's vibration and maintaining resonance in my personal field for two years now. But, I had not put the practice to the test quite like this. My feet and legs were tired, but I am happy to report that the work I've been doing and teaching you has paid off. I had absolutely no lash back.In fact, when the music started, I felt elated and lifted up by the vibration of the excitement of the people around me.

Don't be a recluse! If you have difficulty being in a crowd, I can help you learn to manage emotional energy and keep your own field stable. Learn more about coaching at http://weare1inspirit.com/services/coaching.

Feeling Energy in an Email

I opened an email not too long ago and sensed the hateful energy of the person who sent it. But, it did not cause me undue alarm. I was able to write a calm response to the sender and gently set boundaries and keep peace in our relationship. Why such a change? Because I now recognize my own energy well enough that 90 percent of the time I can tell when I’m picking up on someone else’s stuff. Plus, I have boundaries in place that protect my energy field. So, I’m not as apt to be “hit” by the info-energy of my environment or the wandering thoughts of those who do not have reins on their personal energy. That’s not to say that I don’t get surprised from time to time, but at least I now have tools to clear the energy and not let it get to me the way it once did.

I share these tools in my book, Whose Stuff Is This? ~ Finding Freedom from the Thoughts, Feelings, and Energy of Those Around You and I invite you to learn more about this book for empaths.

A Conference for Spiritually Transforming Experiences

Starseeds, indigos, empaths, and walk-ins are arriving in greater numbers than ever as the Earth moves through a galactic alignment that is increasing the vibration of the planet. During this time of ascension, the level of human consciousness is being raised, and awareness of our multidimensional selves is increasing.

Many people are having some very unusual experiences that they would like to understand and share with others who are going through similar life-transformations. That’s why I’m organizing a conference in Nashville, Tennessee May 17-18, 2013. There will be six speakers, who are able to address topics such as the collaborative process between humans and cosmic beings, ascending with Divine Mother (Sophia) energy, how the body can be used as a guidance tool, and how to discover your life’s mission. Learn more at http://walkinsamongus.org.

Register for the conference now! 

Beginning with a Friday night fellowship at 7 p.m. on May 17, 2013, “Walk-ins Among Us ~ Open Your Personal Portal to Cosmic Awareness” will be held at the beautiful Hyatt Place Hotel (Airport) on Royal Parkway in Nashville, Tennessee.  

On Saturday, May 18, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., several speakers will offer insight about integrating higher cosmic frequencies that come as a result of a download from higher aspects of your soul. You will also have free time to fellowship with other lightworkers in attendance.  If you or someone you know is ready to take the next step on the ascension path, this is the conference to attend! 

Register for the conference now!  The cost to attend the conference is only $99 per person if you register by May 1, 2013. It will cost $119 if you pay after May 1st or at the door.Virtual seats with a live chat room will also be available.

Essential Oils

The oils that plants contain are essential to their growth and have distinct properties that can be used to enhance the health and well-being of your body, emotions, aura, or physical space. About twelve years ago, I learned about the benefits of using essential oils for healing and clearing. I mixed all kinds of recipes and made soap, bath salts, bath oils, candles, room fresheners, and personal fragrances.

Some of my favorites are neroli, bergamot, sandalwood, rosewood, patchouli, myrrh, and of course lavender and rose! Each essential oil has different properties. Sage, peppermint, cedar, thyme, eucalyptus, and rosemary are all great for clearing. Chamomile, orange, and lavender are wonderfully calming. A drop or two placed on your pillow at night may help you enjoy a more restful sleep. Not all essential oils can be applied directly to the skin, so I highly suggest that you study the art of aromatherapy rather than using these oils haphazardly.
See the resources section for a list of books on using essential oils.

Why Too Much Empathy or Compassion is Harmful

Here are two articles on why the ego is responsible for much of what we call sympathy that lead us to empathic overload. 

1. Adopting the pain of others in such global events – when you were not directly or even indirectly touched by those events, except to read about it or watch the video footage on the news - is, at best, futile, but it can also be very damaging to a person’s mental well-being… Read More . . .

2. When an event occurs—such as the shooting in Newtown, Connecticut--that gets nationwide attention, it creates a huge, negative pool of energy in the collective consciousness of humanity. People respond with all kinds of emotions from anger at the perpetrator to sympathy for the victims.

Visualization and Guided Meditation

There are too many excellent CDs to list them all, but meditations that guide you inward to a place where healing abides is a great way to unwind and find your place of peaceful stillness. The background music makes the experience even more peaceful, but you don’t have to use a commercially made music CD. I’ve made some recordings of my own voice leading me into a place of deep peace and quiet stillness. You can do a grounding visualization like this one at any time.
Imagine that you are growing roots from the bottom of your feet. The roots are reaching deeper into the earth, but they're flexible. You can lift your feet and the root will follow you as you walk about.

You just grounded your energy using your inner sight. Wasn’t that easy?

Violet Flame of St. Germain

The violet flame (also called the violet fire of transmutation) is a unique spiritual energy that can help you in all areas of your life. It can heal emotional and physical problems, improve your relationships, help you to grow spiritually, or just make life easier.

I have found the Violet flame of St. Germain (Lord of the Seventh Ray) very useful for transmuting detrimental energy into beneficial energy. Simply call upon the ascended master, St. Germaine, when you feel that you are being adversely influenced by the impulses, thoughts, or energy from the collective consciousness and ask him to bring his violet flame to you. Or, you can send detrimental energy to his flame. Like the refiner’s fire, it will remove the dross and bring forth pure gold. It transmutes energy around you without your having to be actively or consciously aware that you are helping or healing others, and because it also acts as a shield, it will keep you from picking up unwanted psychic information or energy.

Here is an exercise found in The Saint Germain Series by Godfré Ray King to purify the brain and body-structure by calling your Mighty I AM Presence to pour through your mind and body:

Mighty I AM Presence! blaze through me Thy Conforming Flame of Divine Love. Take this desire out of me, annihilate its cause and effect, past, present and future, and replace it by the Fullness of Yourself, your Perfect satisfaction, and hold your Full Dominion here forever.

Spend a few moments (three times a day is recommended), visualizing yourself standing within a pillar of Violet Flame rushing from your feet to some distance above your head and extending for at least three feet on each side around your body.

Hold this picture as long as you can and feel the Flame, which is the purifying power of Divine Love, penetrating every cell of your body. This dissolves all impure and unnecessary substances in the cells of the body, thus clearing and illumining the consciousness.

The Value of Intuition

Intuition is an internal guidance system that we are all blessed with. All of us are able to tap into our inner strength and call upon our higher power at any given moment. However, some people trust their intuition and pay attention to their instinctual inner guidance more than others. As a society, we have been conditioned to ignore or repress our feelings, and we’ve been taught that our emotions are not trustworthy. I’ve found the exact opposite to be true.

Our ancestors used their intuition to survive, whether it was to help them find food, predict weather, or know when to hide or flee. Our intuition can signal a warning to help us steer away from a dangerous person or situation. It can also help us make decisions when an opportunity is presented. Just think how many times you have thought, “If only I had listened to myself,” or “I should have followed my gut feeling.”

Getting information from your intuition can come subtly in the form of ideas, thoughts, emotions, a sense of knowing, an internal voice, a gut feeling, or through the physical senses. Have you ever had a situation where all the facts looked like things were in order, but inwardly you felt that something wasn’t quite right or on the up and up? What do you do when your gut feeling goes against the flow or discloses something deeper or hidden? Do you pay attention to it, or do you ignore it? The more you pay attention to it, the more you will learn to recognize your own internal guidance, and the more in touch with your own energy and body you will be.

Having empathic ability does not necessarily mean you are a psychic. It simply means that you have an innate talent, just like an artist who can create a beautiful work of art. You may not be able to play the piano the first time you sit at the keyboard, but you can take lessons and learn. This chapter is to help you build what professors Peter Salovey and John D. Mayer define as “emotional intelligence” or the ability to “monitor one’s own and others’ feelings and emotions, to discriminate among them, and to use this information to guide one’s thinking and actions.”

Recognizing that you’re an empath is the first step in taking charge of your emotions instead of constantly drowning in them. The most challenging thing about developing and honing empathic abilities is learning to discern what energetic stuff is yours, and what belongs to someone else. Chronic anxiety, depression, or stress wears down our defenses and makes us even more susceptible to the negative energy of others, especially those with similar unresolved emotional issues. In some cases, you may be dealing with a combination of your own stuff and someone else’s.

The Career Choices of Empaths

Empaths are loving, caring, kind people who want to help others. They are often found doing volunteer work and may serve others through emotionally-demanding careers as childcare givers, medical professionals, hospice workers, midwives, and such. Most empaths came in with a mission to heal people, animals, plants, and the planet. As healers, many have taken on so much external energy that they spend most of their time trying to clear unwanted energy and recuperate from the last episode that “blew their doors off.”

Peace and joy are natural characteristics of human beings, but because empaths want to heal others and make everyone happy, they tend to absorb negative energy such as fear, depression, or rage instead. Empaths may feel responsible for other people’s happiness and try to fix things that are wrong in other people’s relationships, physical bodies, and even the world. This makes empaths particularly easy targets for emotional vampires—those who don’t want to take responsibility for their own choices and seek someone to do everything for them.

For that reason, many empaths find it hard to be in public or work a job where there is a prevalence of negative energy. If you are finding it difficult, you may benefit from reading my book, Whose Stuff Is This? ~ Finding Freedom from the Thoughts, Feelings, and Energy of Those Around You. It is a guidebook to teach you how to close off from detrimental energy and open up to your internal guidance.
