Emotional Noise

Do you need a break? From what?

I’m an empath. I didn’t know that until I was in my mid 40s, which explained all the worries I hadn’t had in my life.

Empathy

Empathy is when you use your understanding of life to feel for others. You don’t have to have gone through the exact same thing to know that a person is hurting. You don’t have to ask why, or judge their hurt and find it wanting. It may not bother you but it hurts them and that’s all you need to know.

Empathic

An empath feels what you feel. I took one look at a picture of our King on his way to church this week and I knew instantly.

If you think this is a good thing, something to show off about, it’s not. Yes it makes you kinder and more understanding. You never feel ‘well I’m not scared of heights therefore you’re stupid’, partly because you can feel the genuine fear that another person feels, so you know how real it is to them. But it is very uncomfortable, especially if you don’t know you have that ‘ability’. Especially if it’s just naturally strongly developed.

Also if you think it’s unique to a few special individuals, it’s not. If you know a worrier or a supposed hypochondriac, I’ll lay you a pound to a pinch of salt they’re an empath carrying the weight of the world (literally) on their shoulders.

I didn’t know until my husband started to realise that I’d suddenly start worrying about an illness and within a week someone would tell me they had it.

I also pick up emotion from others. I can be walking down the street and my mood will charge in an instant. Annoyingly it’s often for the worst. However, I know to bring in the universal light through my crown chakra (top of head) fill my body and aura with it, and then send that beautifully energy coming through me to find that troubled person and help.

Example

I was in Glastonbury with friends one day. Wandered into a shop, walked past a young man wearing a back pack, and oh the feeling. It knocked me sideways.

I went outside and asked my friends to cleanse my energy field. I didn’t know how to do it myself then. They said I’d picked up this terrible dramatically bad energy (not in those words but it was a typical old beliefs moment of drama).

I’d done nothing of the sort. The poor man was recently clean of drugs and had got his life back on track, but he’d also lost his beloved partner as a result and wasn’t allowed to see his children. He was well but absolutely heartbroken and on the verge of not wanting to live. He was so angry with himself. So disappointed. So hurt. I asked Spirit to send him all possible help.

Maybe you’ve had these sudden mood swings, and haven’t been diagnosed with a hormonal imbalance, are in the perimenopause, etc., then it’s highly likely that you are an empath. The clue will be that you were born this way.

That atomic problem

We’re all atoms. Everything is atoms. Our energy field is larger than our body. It’s what people call the Aura. Even people not into this stuff will say that someone has a nice aura, a good energy. Many, many people out there know more than they know they know.

Atoms can pick up energy from other atoms. Everyone has an energy field, they bump into each other. They mingle as we walk through crowds. It’s that simple and logical.

I truly don’t know why some people have a strongly developed ability to connect and some can be oblivious. Perhaps it’s your calling. Imagine if a doctor knew exactly how every patient felt? They’d go insane. Imagine if a terrorist knew? If every politician and leader knew? The world would be a much better place.

Some will give you the old soul explanation. But when you consider that elements of the Big Bang have been found within our DNA which we pass down to our children, I’m inclined to believe Amos when he says that’s not right.

He’s always maintained that the entire universe is at the same place of development, but being born and influenced by humans can mess things up. He says it can be a developmental issue or nurture over nature. Perhaps a child will shut down certain abilities due to their background?

I don’t pretend to have the bigger picture.

Resting my aura to save my sanity

I need a lot of peace and quiet in life. I started sitting upstairs reading books at a very young age. My mum said I could always play alone for hours on end quite happily. Right from the age of two.

So I was born with the technique I needed to protect myself. I don’t rest from people, I love people, mostly, barring the evil obviously and those who don’t care that the mess they are affects others.

I rest from the overwhelming noise of emotion in this world.

I’d far rather be high on happiness, but we humans aren’t great at that are we?

Hints

You may be an empath if:

  • You have no medical issues or clinical imbalances, but out of the blue your mood will change for absolutely no reason. This isn’t the hormonal mood swing that women get. You know when and why you have them.
  • You can take one look at a person and know that something is wrong. Your friends will tell you you’re nuts but you turn out to be right.
  • You describe yourself as a recluse. A recluse is likely to be an undiscovered empath. The clue is that you actually do like people but don’t want to be near them. If you don’t like people that’s a different issue. You’ll need to work out which camp you’re in by taking a mental and emotional step back, becoming the observer, and understanding your deeper relationship with the world. Do you wish you had more friends but refuse to go out and mix?
  • Life is just too busy, hectic, and you’re struggling to cope. The clue here is that you won’t have an overwhelmingly busy life, and won’t understand why you need to rest from not a great deal. If you are busy with work, home, children, parents, and more, you may still be an empath if you also have elements of the above. Don’t put everything down to your ability to cope.
  • You know when other people are ill, and maybe even pick up the illness correctly. Medical empathy, and not very pleasant.
  • You’re the person everyone wants to talk to because you get them.

There are ways of dealing with this but they require some training, not a lot because the techniques are simple to do, one two hour session at the most would probably do it.

If you struggle in this way let me know and we can set up something on line.

I'm a writer, public speaker, medium, and spiritual thinker. I suffered from acute anxiety from the age of 16 until I was well into my 50s, when I finally found methods that helped me to put it behind me. My struggles led to me exploring life through poetry, then plays, and over a 15 year period I made notes for a self help book which I published in 2015. Details on the book page. Although I am a psychic medium and loved the work, it didn’t feel right for me. It was an utter privilege, but my path was the exploration of what it means to be spirit in the real world and how we can make practical use of those abilities. Nowadays I write, blog, and teach soul-centred living, which is a gentle way of undoing past programming and connecting to your essential self, or soul. If you’re interested email me and we can chat. No pressure, it’s right for you or it’s not and you will know. The groups meet on line so no going out on cold, wet, winter’s evenings. On a personal note, I’m based in the UK. Married with five cats, no children, and four grandchildren, thanks to our inherited daughter, who has gifted us four beautiful little people that bring us such joy. Hope you enjoy the blogs. Deb xx
