Feelings. Emotions. Energy. We all give, receive, and process them on a second-by-second basis. How do they affect us? Are they always ours? Do we have a say in the way they influence our lives or in our responses to them?

Come and learn why empathy may be one of the most under-defined words in the dictionary as local author, speaker, teacher, musician, writer, blogger, personal coach, interviewer, podcast host and very strong empath, Yvonne Perry presents "Sensing, Directing, and Managing Energy." Much more about Yvonne HERE.


Cost for this very special event is only $10.00 at the door. Cash only please. ATM located in the lobby of Fifty Forward plus several others within a few blocks distance.


One of her books, Whose Stuff Is This? Finding Freedom From The Thoughts, Feelings And Emotions Of Those Around You, is considered by many to be the modern day guide book for empathic people and a must-read for all people who are sensitive to any type of energies! And that's all of us, right?

In this special 4-part workshop, Yvonne will take some of this valuable information and help us understand the various energies we deal with constantly. We are not required to subject ourselves to, or carry around unwanted energetic "baggage" from one day to the next. We are not obligated to give our energetic power away to another person or an awkward situation. We do have tools and choices. Come and learn some new ones!

When Both Partners in a Relationship Are Empaths

Today’s post is the eighth in a series of helpful articles for highly-sensitive people. The full presentation was given February 14, 2012 by Yvonne Perry in the Fizzle to Sizzle Relationship Telesummit hosted by Live-Spirit.com. You may listen to the entire presentation by clicking the arrow in the player below.

This is an especially vulnerable relationship because whatever one is feeling and picking up from public venues or other people is then shared with the partner and both of them feel bad.
Empaths tend to be somewhat codependent to begin with, so it’s natural to blame ourselves when someone else is upset; or we may try to fix the situation or calm the other person. We fear rocking the boat or making things worse, so many times we absorb our partner’s emotional energy into the cells of our body or the electromagnetic field surrounding our body. These energetic burdens can make an empath emotionally and physically sick. When both partners are empaths, they share this misery to a whole new degree of suffering!

But there are benefits to two empaths being in a relationship. Things can work out well if both empaths recognize what is going on with one another and each is actively pursuing spiritual purification practices to clear the energy from their body and auric fields. It’s when neither partner is diligent about keeping their auric field clear that real trouble manifests. Once each partner understands their gift and begins practicing the right use of energy as outlined in the exercises today and the teachings of this telesummit, you will understand one another better than anyone else on the planet. You both have experienced what it’s like to be dragged down by energetic burdens and now with these new tools, you will be able to remind one another to stay focused on transmuting detrimental energy using purer forms of energy rather than allowing the body, mind, and emotions as a punching bag!

There is no need to wall off emotionally from your partner. You will be able to open your heart to divine love without the fear of getting hurt again. Whenever your protection mechanism urges you to avoid getting too close to your partner, you can remind yourself to be filled with love and light from the sacred heart space. Being filled, you can then allow that love to flow through you without siphoning from your partner to get your needs met. You can enjoy being sexually intimate with him or her because being in close proximity merges your auric fields, which you are both keeping clear. This compounds and intensifies the loving, heightened emotional energy of both partners. If one is carrying negativity, the positive charge of the other partner can lift this by sending it to the flame of St. Germaine.

If you are an empath is it imperative that you manage your own energy regardless of what your partner does. You can remind your partner to practice what you’ve learned today, but you can only carry so much for your partner without it wearing you down. Carrying the detrimental energy that you pick up from your partner is a sure way to lose your own identity, miss your higher purpose, and create more personal suffering and relationship misery than is necessary. Don’t be afraid of setting boundaries with your partner who is not pulling his or her weight in this double-empath relationship. I realize that saying “no” to someone is difficult. We fear that if the person responds with an unpleasant emotion that we will take into our personal auric field. You don’t have to do that.

There are no victims in a relationship. Both partners have agreed at some level to participate in the drama they create. It is up to you to see yourself as an empowered individual with a divine mission to accomplish and to do whatever is necessary to get yourself to a safe and healthy place in life. I’m living proof that you don’t have to allow the gift of empathy to drain you or control your destiny.

In closing, remember to focus on the love within yourself, not on your problems. Anyone can do this by opening to sacred love that resides within their own heart. To know that your soul is infused with love and feel the joy of living in union with the I AM presence brings true healing and a revelation of the ascended version of your soul. In that rendition, the heaviness, fatigue, discomfort, or illness you may be experiencing now does not exist. The energy for helping making this shift is here now.

Clearing Emotional Energy with a Partner

This post is the seventh in a series of helpful articles for highly-sensitive people. The full presentation was given February 14, 2012 by Yvonne Perry in the Fizzle to Sizzle Relationship Telesummit hosted by Live-Spirit.com. You may listen to the entire presentation by clicking the arrow in the player below.

Let’s look at some of the ways you can help to dislodge and move emotional energy through your own or your partner’s electromagnetic field:

Smudging with Sage

The Native American practice of smudging with sage has proven to be very helpful in removing negativity from a person’s aura or an area or space. This requires the leaves of a sage plant (or rosemary, cedar, or thyme) to be lit with fire in a heat-safe bowl. The smoke of the smoldering embers is fanned in all direction to cover the person or place to be cleared. You can smudge yourself alone or you and your partner can smudge one another.





Grounding and Centering

Including a walk in nature or eating a healthy meal, there are many techniques for grounding your energy. The one I like best is a simple visualization.

Imagine a white beam of light coming from the cosmos into the crown of your head, flowing down through your body and aura, touching every atom in your body before extending from the soles of your feet into the very core of the earth. I also see gold sparkles of light cleansing and clearing my aura. Then, visualize the slow-vibrating, nurturing energy of Mother Earth coming into your feet and up your legs, merging with the cosmic energy in your body and aura before flowing upward and out through the crown of your head. Visualize it in full detail for the first dozen or so times you try this. Once you are familiar with how this feels and works, your subconscious may begin the process automatically whenever you think of grounding and centering.

Adjusting Aura Size

When the electromagnetic field around your body gets too large and you are doing nothing to fill it with light and love, it can become cluttered with all kinds of mental and emotional energy from those around you. After you ground and center, visualize your clean, clear aura (an egg-shaped bubble around your body) slowing drawing in closer to your body. Once you become aware of how it feels to have your aura at about two to two and a half feet (arm’s length) from your body, you will notice when it has roamed into other people’s territory.

Sending Love and Light to Your Partner

Rather than taking on the energy of another person, offer compassion without paying a personal price. Find your heart center and feel the love that is there. Expand it while imagining a ray of pink or green light extending from your heart and a ray of purple or white light shining from your third eye (6th chakra located between your eyebrows). Direct these beams of light toward your partner and filling his/her subtle bodies and physical body. You can do this with anyone who needs healing. This allows you to send rays of healing and loving light to the afflicted person without getting entangled with their mental and emotional issues. Refuse to allow your emotions to engage in feeling what that person is feeling. This is not being hard-hearted; it is using the mental power of your third eye as an intuitive tool rather than using your body and emotions as a punching bag. The third eye resides in a higher dimension. Therefore, you are not using your limited human faculties to do the work of transmutation.

St. Germaine’s Flame of Transmutation

Emotions, feelings, and even illnesses are energetic imprints to which an empath is highly sensitive. Everything is energy. It cannot be destroyed, but it can be changed or transmuted. Together or individually you can call upon ascended master Saint Germaine and his violet flame of transmutation to lift an energetic burden and convert the detrimental energy into beneficial energy.

I visualize detrimental energy being formed into a ball and lifted into the heavens where it is “zapped” by the violet flame of St. Germaine. This flame bursts the energy ball into millions of golden fragments representing love, light, wisdom, peace, joy, and other positive emotions and then falling like a gentle golden snow upon the earth, myself, and the person who was relieved of this energetic burden.

These are very easy exercises, but with diligent practice, they can make a world of difference in your life and relationship.

To the empath, I say: begin these exercises as soon as you realize you are picking up energy that does not belong to you.

To the non-empath partner of an empath, I say thank you for reminding us of our spiritual role and right use of this gift. Your help in serving as a non-judgmental observing guardian is greatly beneficial. However, it does not exempt the empath from doing his/her part in keeping his/her own energy field clear.

When Only One Partner Is an Empath

Today’s post is the sixth in a series of helpful articles for highly-sensitive people. The full presentation was given February 14, 2012 by Yvonne Perry in the Fizzle to Sizzle Relationship Telesummit hosted by Live-Spirit.com. You may listen to the entire presentation by clicking the arrow in the player below.

Honestly communicating whatever is on your heart and having your partner understand, accept, and show compassion toward you is a legitimate human need. However, most empaths can’t tell you everything that is on their heart and what is really bothering them because they tend to always feel out of sorts and may not know why. They carry much more than their own emotional and mental stuff. When an empath absorbs another person’s emotional energy into the cells of their body or the electromagnetic field surrounding the body, these energetic burdens can make us emotionally and physically sick. Some people don’t even know about being an empath much less what to do about it.  Many couples rarely recognize the connection between the moodiness, bouts of depression or crying—even physical illness of the empathic partner—unless they start to think back and realize that these episodes tend to occur after being in a crowd or around someone who is negative or in need of healing.

To the non-empath partner, the empath seems emotionally weak, mentally unstable, or willy-nilly about what they want in life. What they really want is peace at all costs—most empaths hate confrontation—but they go about trying to create peace by taking on the burdens of others rather than by raising their own vibration and working with purer energies to transmute the suffering around them.

When someone an empath is close to is unkind, it’s natural for the empath to blame themselves. It’s also natural for them or their partner to try to fix the situation or calm the other person. Trying to talk to an empath about what’s wrong in the middle of an emotional episode is probably going to backfire. The empath is already emotionally overloaded and anything the partner does to try do may only add to the burden. It is best to have a plan of action for when your empathic partner is experiencing empathic stress. This is so simple you will be amazed how well it works.

When your empath partner is suffering with compassion fatigue, offer to smudge him or her with sage; send love and light to the partner; adjust your aura size, ground and center your own energy, and remind your partner to do the same.

Heart-Centered Meditation

Today’s post is the fifth in a series of helpful articles for highly-sensitive people. The full presentation was given February 14, 2012 by Yvonne Perry in the Fizzle to Sizzle Relationship Telesummit hosted by Live-Spirit.com. You may listen to the entire presentation by clicking the arrow in the player below.

The goal of the heart centered meditation that I co-created with Dr. Caron Goode is to reunite your spiritual heart with the Sacred Heart and increase your awareness of the love and wisdom of higher realms. I’m amazed at the peace and calm I feel whenever
I do this exercise.

I affirm that I am centered, aligned and heart wise, and I intend through this focused meditation to open my heart, will, and clear knowing.

Breathing in and breathing out, I am aligning my heart, will, and clear knowing with the alpha and with the omega. I am aligned.

Placing my right hand on my heart and gently inhaling…exhaling… inhaling…exhaling… I focus on my heart center. I go inward to heart… I am in heart, and I rest in my awareness there.

Breathing in slowly… and illuminating my heart, filling up my heart with crystalline white light. With each breath I take, the white light is brighter and whiter, growing and filling my heart.

Centered in my heart and aligned, each time I inhale, I send rays of my white light swirling through my body, around my body, and through the soles of my feet to the earth for a solid, grounded connection.

My heart glows with warmth and wisdom. My heart light beams its brilliance outward, forward, preparing my path. The rays of heart light open doors of opportunity, clear my way, and enhance my clear knowing.

I am centered, aligned and heart wise. I am centered in my heart, aligned in my will and clear in my awareness.

I trust the heart’s wisdom, listen to the heart’s passions, and feel the calm, serene space within.

I Am.

How to Stay Open-Hearted in a Harsh Society

Today’s post is the fourth in a series of helpful articles for highly-sensitive people. The full presentation was given February 14, 2012 by Yvonne Perry in the Fizzle to Sizzle Relationship Telesummit hosted by Live-Spirit.com. You may listen to the entire presentation by clicking the arrow in the player below.

The heart is the center of health and well-being. When the heart is healed, the body is healthy. As the heart experience changes, so do life’s experiences. Dreams, thoughts, visions, and limitless possibilities birthed from the Sacred Heart are what affect changes that truly serve our wholeness and support the shift we are making as a species.

Not only does the energy of love and joy belong in our heart, so do our thoughts. When thoughts are run only through the mind, we have multiple problems. When our thoughts are run through the heart, we will feel creative, loved, inspired, and peaceful. We have clear direction and make decisions from a place of clear knowing and clear seeing. In the Sacred Heart we have all the resources we need to make our lives enjoyable and easy. It is when we believe and live as if we are separated from this Sacred Heart that we begin to create by default and bring unpleasant things into our lives. The logical mind would have us believe that we don’t have what we need or that there is lack. When we think from a place of heart centered clear seeing and clear knowing, our heart is filled with a deep sense of confidence and trust.

Love is the greatest power there is. I don’t know of anyone who would not welcome the presence of unconditional love into their human experience. Yet, many people avoid the very activities that would bring more love into their hearts. It is natural to commune with whatever we love or hold valuable. If you love watching movies, you may own a huge library of DVDs; if you love walking in nature, you may take hiking trips; if you love cooking, you may often be in the kitchen trying new recipes. In other words, you will arrange your schedule to spend time engaging in an activity that you feel drawn to—even if it is a negative activity such as worrying or feeling fearful. We create experiences that reinforce or fuel a particular emotion. If we honor our connection to the Sacred Heart, we will regularly engage in the experience of going within to be fed by its infinite resources. When you feel a longing in your spiritual heart what you really want is to experience more love. It is not material things or even people that bring us joy and love, fulfillment and satisfaction.

Plugging in to the Sacred Heart reunites the fragmented parts of us into wholeness. Creating from this place of love and communion with the Sacred Heart, we see ourselves connected to all of creation and know that we can confidently create whatever we wish to manifest.

Tomorrow I will offer a meditation you can use to help open to the Sacred Heart within. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Keeping the Heart Open to Sacred Love

Today’s post is the third in a series of articles for highly-sensitive people. The full presentation was given February 14, 2012 by Yvonne Perry in the Fizzle to Sizzle Relationship Telesummit hosted by Live-Spirit.com. You may listen to the entire presentation by clicking the arrow in the player below.

Your spiritual heart is meant to be open to Spirit. When the spiritual heart is infused with divine love it holds the greatest power there is. When we are connected to our Sacred Heart, we are in a state of truth—we live authentically, and we realize there is nothing to guard against. Our heart can be open to others—not blindly open, but wisely knowing what is safe to let in and what should be avoided. Our heart is open yet we are not worried about being hurt because we understand and listen to our intuition to know what we can trust to let in our heart. By the same intuition we know what doesn’t resonate with our sacred space and what we need to filter out. When we have absolute connection to Spirit we have clear guidance to discern what course to take in any moment.

The heart communicates with us through our feelings and emotions. When the heart is closed to infinite love, it feels abandoned or rejected. When we have these feelings, our heart is telling us that it does not feel connected to its source of nourishment. When the heart has been completely walled off, one may experience all sorts of problems in relationships and the physical body—especially with the physical heart. When we feel this disconnection, remember your heart is sending you a message. It is asking to be infused with love.

We need to love ourselves before we can love anyone else. This self-love comes from the Sacred Heart. When we depend upon a relationship to feel loved, adored, or respected we allow another person to be a receptor of the love we feel in ourselves. If that person is suddenly gone from our lives, we feel lonely or betrayed. This is when we really need to give ourselves unconditional love, emotional support, self-respect, adoration. When that significant person is gone, we must pick up the role they were playing and become our own lover. We put meaning back into our lives by reconnecting with the Sacred Heart and doing or being for ourselves what that partner has been for us. If you are feeling loss, let it serve as a reminder to look within your personal heart and find sacred love.

Connection with the Sacred Heart is the one relationship we can count on to always be there. It dwells within us and it is ours forever. When we feel we are losing someone or something dear to us is not the time to create more separation from Sacred Love, but many times that is exactly what we do. Even though it feels like love is leaving us, it is the other person’s presence, which we have equated to love, that has left us. No one else is in control of your personal experience of sacred love. Being in a close relationship with another person gives us the opportunity to share love that ultimately comes from the dimension of sacred love through the Sacred Heart. We can open to that dimension by expressing love to another person, and we can also experience sacred love without a partner.

How to Open to Sacred Love

Today’s post is the second in a series of helpful articles for highly-sensitive people. The full presentation was given by Yvonne Perry in “From Fizzle to Sizzle Relationship Telesummit” hosted by Live-Spirit.com. You may listen to the entire presentation by clicking the arrow in the player below.

Next, we want to talk about how to activate your heart and connect to the secret chamber of the Sacred Heart where unconditional love abounds. In that limitless place of bliss, you will find everything you have always wanted and needed—everything you’ve been trying to extract from a human relationship. Operating from your personal place of power, you will learn how to allow love to radiate from you so strongly that you no longer absorb detrimental energy from others.

When we look to another person to fulfill us, love us, and meet our needs, we are looking to the wrong source. We are the only ones who can meet and nurture our emotional needs and this is done by connecting to the sacred and secret chamber of the Sacred Heart and unconditional love that abounds there. I will lead us in a meditation to show how to do this. But first, I want to explain the three hearts—the trinity of human spirituality—that each person has:

1. The physical heart supports the physical body. It’s the organ that pumps and circulates blood throughout the body. The physical heart chakra is a reception site for the energy coming from the spiritual heart to us through the etheric heart.

2. The spiritual heart connects us to a dimension of pure, spiritual awareness or unconditional love, which is free of mental and emotional influences.

3. Connecting the physical heart to the spiritual heart is the Sacred Heart (God, All That Is) that supports the electromagnetic energy field of the brain/body. It is where true prayer (or communion with our creator) resides. This is home! The spiritual heart is the center of creativity. It is through this heart that we heal the aspect of ourselves that has known separation. Part of reconnecting with the Sacred Heart is to become aware of your authentic free-spirited self that knows and easily experiences love, peace, and joy. Your soul has not forgotten its union with the Sacred Heart; our human perspective in this 3-D world has caused us to see ourselves as separate from it.

Empaths in Relationships

The next few posts on this blog will be a series of helpful articles for highly-sensitive people. The full presentation was given by Yvonne Perry in the From Fizzle to Sizzle Relationship Telesummit hosted by Live-Spirit.com. You may listen to the entire presentation by clicking the arrow in the player below.

An empath’s innate ability to express compassion often gets them into trouble because rather than simply observing a condition in another person, the empath can actually merges with it or absorbs it into their own emotional or mental field or physical body. Therefore, it’s very important for an empathic person and those closest to him or her to diligently guard their “heart” and maintain a positive attitude. We will also look at how to guard the heart without closing off compassion.

When an empath or highly sensitive person opens his or her heart to another person (even a stranger) and that person responds with negativity, the emotional impact is keenly felt. Being around the energy of a stranger who is simply having a bad day can feel like a dagger driven in our heart. How much worse do we feel when our intimate partner or someone we are close to is unkind toward us?

We want to open our heart to love but we are afraid of getting hurt again. Our fear-based protection mechanism urges us to avoid getting too close. Walling off emotionally from our partner can cause the relationship to plummet. We open our heart to the wrong source when we look to another person to fulfill us, love us, and meet our needs. When that person disappoints or leaves us, we feel betrayed or abandoned. We must look to Source energy within our own heart to find a balance between emotional overwhelm and emotional coldness.

The problem with many empaths–everyone actually–is that we have not learned the correct use of energy. That means setting boundaries while keeping our heart open to love. Since empaths feel energy more keenly, this lack of knowledge creates a bigger problem in their relationships than it does in the general population. Regardless of whether both partners are empaths or if just one person is, learning to manage energy is of major importance to the well-being of a relationship with an empath.

The Purpose of Empaths

Empaths are on the earth to help transmute the negativity of dark forces and bring light and purer vibrations to the world. Their arrival on earth was not accompanied by a handbook to tell them how to do this! I nearly died before I learned the hard way how to manage emotional energy. I want to make it easy on others. There’s no need for all of us to get knocked down before we learn how to stand in our power. That’s why I enjoy making presentations like this one. That’s why I maintain a blog with all kinds of resources to help empaths manage energy. I encourage you to listen to the audio below. Simply click the small arrow in the player to start the podcast session.

And that’s why I wrote and published Whose Stuff Is This! Finding Freedom from the Thoughts, Feelings, and Energy of Those Around You. It is the manual I wish I’d had 20 years ago! I will present some of the concepts of that book today, but I encourage you to invest a few dollars in yourself and your relationship by getting a copy of the printed book or downloading the Kindle/Nook version. It’s also available as an audio book. See the purchase page http://whosestuffisthis.com.

Like Father (Mother) Like Son (Daughter) and So Forth

If you are an empath, more than likely some members of your family are empaths are as well. With no training on how to use this gift and manage energy, you know it can seem like a curse. That's because empaths are natural healers even though many don’t know it. They take energetic burdens from others in a subconscious attempt to heal them by transmuting (converting) the detrimental energy into beneficial energy. If you want to stay well and emotionally fit, you must do this transmutation with the help of your higher guidance and ascended masters. There is no need to use your body as a punching bag.

As humanity and Earth is moving through a shift in consciousness, all kinds of family secrets are coming to the surface to be healed, transmuted, and integrated. Those who don't want to deal with their stuff may try to blame their misery on someone else. Don't be fooled by family members who are trying to dump their stuff on you!

You (and your family members) may be remembering childhood issues that have been repressed for many years. Everything is coming to the light. You may be hearing voices in your head. These are the forces of darkness (ego, separation) trying to prevent this healing and transmutation from happening. Don't worry. The Light is greater than darkness. Rather than paying attention to those negative voices that try to make you believe you are weak, focus on the fact that you are a being of light having a human experience intended to develop your soul and help you master the right use of energy.

Affirmations coupled with sincere feelings will help reprogram your mind to accept and act upon higher truth. I’m writing a new book that is going to help take empaths through the 2012 shift and beyond by offering exercises, suggestions, and tips for raising your vibration, healing your past, and standing in your new and empowered identity. In that book, I will teach how to anchor yourself in the place of heart-centered peace through conscious breathing.

But you don't have to wait until May! I gave a sneak preview of a heart-centered meditation in a presentation I made in "From Fizzle to Sizzle Relationship Telesummit," and I'd like to share that presentation with you now. Just click the arrow in the player below to listen.

Grounding and Centering Steps

You need to choose a color for your grounding cord. Try on different ones until one feels right and aligns with whatever you need today.

1. Envision Divine white light clearing your body and aura as it extends from the universe to the center of planet Earth.
2. Establish a grounding _________ (color) cord from your root chakra at the tailbone and see the grounding cord going into the earth. You are now surrounded by the light and filled with the light.
3. See your aura extending 2.5 feet from your body (an arm’s length away) above, below, in front, behind, and to the sides of your body.
4. Imagine a shower of golden sunlight washing your aura for 2 minutes. This might be swirls of sparkling glitter, or spirals of light
5. Envision the Christ-gold light surrounding your body. This is your higher self—this is who you really are. You are protecting yourself! Yet, you really don’t need protection—you just need to realize who you are!
6. Next, see blue light surrounding the Christ-gold light like bands of light. You can add other colors if you would like.
7. Notice another band of flaming light—the kind that you see when a fire is really hot. This is the violet flame of St. Germaine. Envision it surrounding all the bands of your aura. Its purpose is to deflect detrimental energies from your environment.
8. Feel free to call upon angels, archangels, ascended masters, the Holy Spirit or whomever you feel comfortable asking for spiritual assistance.
9. Imagine roses are in place outside of your aura to absorb and transmute any detrimental energy that you are processing in this session as a result of these faster-vibrating energies surrounding you. These energies encourage you to examine and process anything that is unlike love. Ask that it be gently transmuted into beneficial energy for you, your life, your body, and others.
10. The next part asks you to imagine cosmic gold light energy begins in my crown, flows down the back of you chakras, curves under your tail bone. Ten percent flows down through your grounding cord. The other 90 percent flows upward to your 5th chakra at your throat where it divides three ways: upward and out through crown, down each shoulder and arm then out the palms.
11. While the cosmic gold light is running through your body and cleansing your chakras, call forth Mother Gaia’s love and light earth energies to ascend through your feet, up your legs, joining the cosmic gold flow at your tail bone where it will flow consecutively with the cosmic gold light through the appropriate channels.
12. This is a good time to do your breathing meditation. Tom Goode taught us full-wave breathing in session two. If you missed that session, I encourage you to purchase the replays on Live-Spirit.com

This blog post is from a presentation given by Yvonne Perry during the telesummit, Empaths Shifting into 2012. “There Are No Victims” is intended to help empaths release the victim mentality imprinted in their cellular memory, forgive those they see as abusers, move beyond past experiences, and become empowered to help the Earth and humanity shift into purer planes of consciousness.
