Be an Empowered Empath!
Empaths have the innate ability to feel the emotions of others. With practice, empowered empaths can heal, project, work with, and amplify emotional energy. Even without training, those gifted with empathy are highly sensitive to the emotions of others. When people are feeling happy, loving, excited, or peaceful, empaths can feel it. On the other hand, when people are feeling sad, angry, frightened, or sick, empaths feel that too. Thus being an empath is both blessing and curse.
More than being aware of emotions, Empaths actually absorb emotions instinctively, particularly negative emotions. People suffering from depression often feel better after being around empaths because of how they instinctively siphon away negative emotions. This is great for anyone with depression, but somewhat problematic for an untrained empath.
Many empaths are at the mercy of their gift and live subject to the emotional weather created by those around them. The gift of empathy automatically brings awareness and absorption of emotion but no knowledge of what to do with it afterwards. However, like any other gift, empathy can be a powerful asset when it is properly trained. With practice, empaths can transform the emotion they absorb, heal the emotions in others, use emotions to power manifesting, and even actively project happier emotional climates.
When people talk about being an empath, it is often with a sense of pain. When empathy is untrained, it can be overwhelming to feel and absorb so much. I used to be at the mercy of my gift. Now I use it actively, and I have never felt better in my life! Here are some of the techniques I use to work with my gift. I hope they work as well for you as they do for me, and if they don't, run your google search again until you find a technique you relate to! Your answers are out there! Remember that you are the heart of humanity, and you are needed!
Molten Empathy
Before working with empathy, use this technique to help gain control of it. Whenever you feel inexplicably sad, afraid, or angry out of nowhere, you can use the molten empathy technique to free yourself of these emotions and help you get used to working with emotional energy.
Empaths are meant to serve as the heart of humanity. We are able to feel the emotions of others because we are meant to heal and work with them. If you think about it, this means that we can work with and control emotional energy. We are able to take in emotional energy, but that does not mean that we have to hold on to it.
So now, take a deep breath and look inside yourself. Be aware of any negative emotion holding you back. Negative emotional energy tends to be heavy, cloying, and dark. The heaviness is the clue. To say that an emotion is heavy implies that it responds to gravity. It does.
So now take hold of all the heavy, negative energy inside of you, and send it where it wants to go. Send it to the center of the Earth. The Earth's core is hot and molten. It can break down and melt any element into its purest form. If the core can melt heavy metals, it can certainly melt down emotional energy.
So push, drain, and siphon any negative energy within you down into the Earth. See it flow through the ground past the roots and dirt, past layers of fossil and rock, and finally reach liquid hot magma. The dark taint to the energy is burned away and made light, and the negativity fades away to find only peace. You meanwhile, feel lighter than you would have thought possible.
Practice this technique often. The more you do, the better control you will gain of the emotional environment you live in. When you gain better control of it, you can try actively draining negative emotions all around you before they even touch you.
Projective Empathy
This technique is very useful when someone is feeling negative emotions and you want to help them feel better. If someone feels angry, you could remove the charge and help them calm down. If someone is upset, you could help them feel peaceful. If someone feels despair, you could project hope straight into their heart. You could share and amplify your happiest feelings to create an emotional climate of pure joy.
This technique is based on the theory that a door once opened may be stepped through in either direction. If you feel another's emotion, then you have a link directly to their heart. So why should only you feel the emotion? Part of the reason you pick up what they are broadcasting is that they don not want to feel that way. So help them feel something better by reversing the feed and projecting an emotion through the link instead of simply receiving it.
In order to do this, it is essential to build up an arsenal of happy, peaceful, hopeful and loving memories in your mind. In order to project an emotion, you have to feel it. So find or make a few memories to be kept in the forefront of your mind. When have you felt blissfully, victoriously happy? When have you felt so calm and relaxed that you could have stayed that way forever? Build a database of these memories in your mind. Write them down if it helps you list them. Practice feeling them often. This will work wonders in more ways than one.
So if you come across someone whose emotions are screaming for help, do the following. Take a deep breath and decide on what emotion you wish to project. In the safety of your mind, recall the memory that evokes your chosen emotion. Make the memory as strong as possible in the present. Let the emotion of that memory fill your heart. When your heart is practically bursting with your chosen emotion, send the excess emotional energy you've generated towards your target. Let the energy permeate the link between your hearts. Your emotional projection will slowly but surely overwhelm and transform their negative emotional state until it reflects your positivity.
Manifesting with Empathy
Energy flows where emotion goes. I feel that my empathy gives me a real boost when it comes to manifesting my heart's desires in reality. In order to manifest, you can use your imagination, you can make a vision board with pictures of what you want, and you can write down what you want in petition form. All of that is fine, but what really makes it work is the emotion.
Emotion is a universal language that the universe understands at a primal level. Feelings have so much energy and power in our lives that it only makes sense that they play such an important role in manifesting.
One little known advantage of being an empath is that since we are connected to the heart of the universe so intimately, when we feel something, we practically feel it into existence. So when you write your petitions or make your vision boards, use the full power of your emotions. Whatever you are attracting to you, feel what it is like to have it now. Project how amazing it feels to have what you want most, even if you don't have it yet! When it comes to manifesting, empathy is an extraordinary gift!
