Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you feel all the feels—all the time? Are you fed up with the mainstream spiritual “love and light” scene that calls for constant positivity, even in the face of true loss, trauma, and pain? If so, this book is for you. I Don’t Want to Be an Empath Anymore is a gift for the jaded empath searching for authenticity in spirituality, and spirituality in being authentic—something beyond the clichéd, positive affirmations that seem to invalidate our anger, sadness, and pain. When we feel broken—and when real damage has been done, it’s not always helpful to ignore our feelings and tell ourselves that we are perfect and whole. In this refreshingly honest guide, shamanic practitioner Ora North offers practical exercises to help you navigate your intuition and empathic sensitivities, create much-needed boundaries, and build confidence. You’ll also learn to balance your emotions and energy, and harness the strength of your shadow side to embrace your whole self and live your best life. Like the Japanese craft known as Kintsugi—the art of repairing broken pottery using a lacquer dusted with powdered gold—the process of acknowledging and repairing our fragmented selves can make us even more beautiful than before, cracks and all. In this book, you won’t find platitudes or attempts to whitewash your experiences. What you will find are real, practical tools and guidance to help you make the most of your unique abilities.
Download or read book Empath written by Ian Tuhovsky and published by Ian Tuhovsky. This book was released on 2017-09-22 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have others ever told you to “stop being so sensitive?” Have you ever looked at other people and wondered how they manage to get through the day without noticing the suffering going on all around them? Do you feel so emotionally delicate in comparison to your peers that you have tried to block out what is going on around you? You may have even resorted to coping mechanisms such as overeating, overworking, or smoking as a means of managing your emotions. Maybe you have tried to “grow a thicker skin,” or attempted to cover up your feelings with humor? Perhaps you have always felt different to others since childhood, but could never quite put your finger on why. If this description resonates with you, congratulations! You may well be an Empath. Unfortunately, an Empath who lacks insight into their own nature is likely to be miserable. Most of us are familiar with the concept of empathy. Aside from sociopaths, who are largely incapable of appreciating what another individual may be feeling, humans are generally able to understand what others are going through in most situations. Empaths, however, constitute the small group of people who not only understand the emotions of others, but literally feel them too. In short, an Empath takes this common human ability of relating to other peoples’ emotions to extremes. If you have no idea why you are so readily affected by the emotions of others and the events around you, you might become psychologically unstable. You will be unsure as to where your true feelings end, and those of other people begin. Hypersensitivity can be a burden if not properly managed, which is why it’s so important that all Empaths learn to harness the special gift they have been given. That’s where this book comes in. Millions of other people around the world share your gifts and lead happy, fulfilling lives. Make no mistake – the world needs us. It’s time to learn how to put your rare gift to use, maximize your human potential, and thrive in life! If you think you (or anyone around you) might be an Empath or the Highly Sensitive Person – this book is written for you. What you will learn from this book: -What it really means to be an Empath and the science behind the “Empath” and “the Highly Sensitive Person” classification. Find out how our brains work and why some people are way more sensitive than others. -What are the upsides of being an Empath – find your strengths and thrive while making the most of your potential and providing value to this world (it NEEDS Empaths!) by making it a better place. -What are the usual problems that sensitive people struggle with – overcome them by lessening the impact that other people’s emotions and actions have on you, while still being truthful to your true nature, and learn how to take care of your mental health. -The great importance of becoming an emotionally intelligent person – learn what EQ is and how you can actively develop it to become much more peaceful, effective, and a happy person. Discover the strategies that will help you stay balanced and be much more immune to the everyday struggles. -The workplace and career choices – realize what you should be aware of and find how to make sure you don’t stumble into the most common problems that sensitive people often fall prey to. -How to effectively handle conflicts, negative people, and toxic relationships – since sensitive people are more much more immune to difficult relations and often become an easy target for those who tend to take advantage of others – it’s time to put this to an end with this book. -How to deal with Empaths and Highly Sensitive People as a non-Empath and what to focus on if you think that your kid might fall under this classification. -How to connect with other Empaths, what is the importance of gender in this context, and how to stay in harmony with your environment – you will learn all of this and more from this book!
Download or read book The Empath s Journey written by Ritu Kaushal and published by . This book was released on 2019-03-18 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you been called "too sensitive" all your life and tried to fit yourself inside the box of the "normal"? Do you absorb other people's feelings like a sponge? Do you find yourself drowning in these feelings and sensations? Do you feel that your acute sensitivity sometimes lets toxic people in and makes you into a victim? If yes, you might be an empath, a Highly Sensitive Person who is finely tuned in to energy but who can also get overwhelmed because of this tendency to notice details. In The Empath's Journey, San Francisco Bay Area-based writer Ritu Kaushal takes you on an intimate journey to rediscover and recover what it means to be an emotional empath and a Highly Sensitive Person. Combining personal stories with insights from Jungian Depth Psychology, Transactional Analysis and Art Therapy, The Empath's Journey shows empaths how to reclaim the core of their sensitivity from the deeply injuring stories they have been told about it. In this behind-the-scenes look at an empath's life, we first meet the author at a pivotal point after she has relocated from India to the United States. As she gets inundated with noticing thousands of small differences in a new culture, she finds herself face-to-face with the same old dilemma: Is feeling and noticing so much really such a great thing? Over the next six years, we journey with her as she struggles with questions that every emotional empath has battled with. How do you cut through overwhelm when you feel swamped by noticing subtle details and feelings? How do you set boundaries when you almost feel other people's emotions in your own body? Is being an empath even a real thing, or is being an empath a maladaptation, the same as being codependent? As the author cuts through the muck of old beliefs, we see her finding pieces of her answers. We accompany her as she assembles different tools to channel her crackling sensitivity so that it can be harnessed as a source of power instead of leaving her feeling overwhelmed and spinning out of control. Instead of seeing themselves through the lens of the labels of "too weak" and "too soft," The Empath's Journey shows empaths that many of their struggles with being highly sensitive come from the fact that they've been taught to treat their sensitivity like a dragon, something to fight against, instead of seeing that this seeming dragon guards their very treasure. In this believing mirror of a book, you will find all those lost, wounded parts of yourself that have numbed out because they were not seen. You will also find the thread back to that soft sensitivity that makes you You, that You you have always been, and will always be. The Empath's Journey is calling you back home to your sensitive self. Editorial Reviews: The Empath's Journey is essential reading for anyone struggling with being an empath or seeking support as a Highly Sensitive Person. If you have ever felt misunderstood as an intuitive, this is the book for you. It's a powerful key to unlocking the enigma of the empath and helping unearth our gifts as well as our purpose here. -- Lauren Sapala, author of The INFJ Writer. Empaths have an intimate experience with the world around them which is hard to describe and even harder to write about. Ritu masterfully takes other empaths on her inner and outer journey from self-discovery to self-mastery. She journeys across cultures, archetypes, and psychological challenges to claim the gifts of being a highly sensitive person and an empath. This is an inspirational book for other empaths seeking their journey to self-mastery. Highly recommended! -- Maria Hill, Founder, Sensitive Evolution and author of The Emerging Sensitive.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you highly sensitive? Empathetic? Empathic? An empath? The Space in Between captures the essence of what it means to live as an empath—and demonstrates how an ordinary person can open up to living an extraordinary life. Longtime spiritual counselor and seasoned guide Signe Myers Hovem takes readers on a journey through her life, demystifying empathic receptivity and revealing that it is not a “gift” or “power” but a feature of one’s sensory perception and intuition, an ability that allows us to live in extended communication with nature and humanity. She elucidates the difference between having empathic traits and sensitivities and actually having the skills and abilities of an empath. And she explores the five different landscapes and fields of consciousness that provided her with insight and movement as she traveled her own path of discovery—Field of Reflection, Field of Definition, Field of Sensing, Field of Awareness and Experience, and Field of Mystery—helping readers to dismantle long-held beliefs, illuminating the intentional path towards balance and belonging, and encouraging us all to rediscover what it means to live a truly authentic life. Written for persons who identify as highly sensitive, as empathic, or as empaths, The Space in Between is a road map to cultivating both self-awareness and connectivity with the greater world.

Download or read book Against Empathy written by Paul Bloom and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2016-12-06 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Post Best Book of 2016 We often think of our capacity to experience the suffering of others as the ultimate source of goodness. Many of our wisest policy-makers, activists, scientists, and philosophers agree that the only problem with empathy is that we don’t have enough of it. Nothing could be farther from the truth, argues Yale researcher Paul Bloom. In AGAINST EMPATHY, Bloom reveals empathy to be one of the leading motivators of inequality and immorality in society. Far from helping us to improve the lives of others, empathy is a capricious and irrational emotion that appeals to our narrow prejudices. It muddles our judgment and, ironically, often leads to cruelty. We are at our best when we are smart enough not to rely on it, but to draw instead upon a more distanced compassion. Basing his argument on groundbreaking scientific findings, Bloom makes the case that some of the worst decisions made by individuals and nations—who to give money to, when to go to war, how to respond to climate change, and who to imprison—are too often motivated by honest, yet misplaced, emotions. With precision and wit, he demonstrates how empathy distorts our judgment in every aspect of our lives, from philanthropy and charity to the justice system; from medical care and education to parenting and marriage. Without empathy, Bloom insists, our decisions would be clearer, fairer, and—yes—ultimately more moral. Brilliantly argued, urgent and humane, AGAINST EMPATHY shows us that, when it comes to both major policy decisions and the choices we make in our everyday lives, limiting our impulse toward empathy is often the most compassionate choice we can make.
