So You Think You Are An Empath?

Understanding & Managing your Gift

Instructor Janet Partlow


In this world, there are people who have highly developed sensitivity to other people. Often they can sense physical or emotional problems or pain in others, usually without being told.
These people are called empaths.  Here’s a great description by Elise LeBeau:
“An empath is someone who can feel other people’s emotions as their own: we literally feel what other people feel. Notice that this definition does not assume that we are aware of it nor that we know what to do with it. It simply describes an ability to experience someone else’s emotion, even if they are not in our physical presence. Empaths find ourselves in the tricky situation of being overwhelmed by the quantity of emotional information we receive. We can sense the emotions of everyone around us. It comes like a scrambled radio station where we get bits and pieces. In its raw form, this emotional information is incoherent and even painful as we feel all the emotions from everyone around us.
The most problematic aspect of being an empath is that most of us have no idea how to manage it. We don’t know how to turn it off. We don’t know how to use it effectively to accomplish something productive. Some of us don’t even know that we have it. We just think we’re weird and have random mood swings and tired spells”.

In this half day workshop, we are going to focus on what it is to be an empath, how our gifts show up in a unique way for each of us and how we manage this gift.  Some of the activities we will do:
    Test ourselves for the specific nature of our own gift.
    Learn how it is we use our unique perceptions to take in information.
    Learn how to put the gift away in a safe place, to be used only when needed.
    Learn how this gift impacts our energy field: tools for testing and repair
    Experience a voice-guided shamanic journey to help better understand the nature of our gift.
    We will work with stones/crystals for protection.
    Focus on a number of tools for protecting ourselves and feeling safe in the world.

At the end of this workshop we will have a much better grasp of our empath gifts and how to manage it and protect ourselves in the world.
