Merging with SpiritThere are mountains of books written on the topic of being an Empathy, but if you are an empath you already know the feeling of helplessness and dread. It is the most difficult of gifts to live with and navigating through the confusion of empathy is overwhelming at times. The good news, however, is there is help and tools to assist you in living with and actually embracing this talent.
Empaths have to be very careful of the company they keep as they can become "food" for the psychic vampires. These are people who drain your energy from just a conversation (we've all had those phone calls where we need a nap after talking to that extra needy friend). Each of our family or friends need us from time to time (and we need them at times as well). The problem begins when our boundaries are consistently crossed and we our relationship with others are more draining than uplifting. At that point it may be beneficial to re-evaluate your relationships. |
