Lisa Campion, Reiki master teacher, and author of The Art of Psychic Reiki“What a relief this book is! At turns fresh, familiar, frank, and funny, author Ora North manages to distill recovery models, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and shamanism into a coherent and accessible program for empathy management, self-healing, and relationship building. Don’t take the title seriously, though. After working the exercises in I Don ’ t Want to Be an Empath Anymore, you will not only be more comfortable being so deep in the world of emotion, you will have become adept at it and found yourself embracing what an asset your sensitivities are to yourself and others. Highly recommended.” Here are 6 things manipulative people do, and how best to handle them. 8) No space for personal emotions The problem is that you, one person, can’t help everyone. An empath can feel the pain of every person they meet in their life, but they can’t help them all. Even if they want to. According to Merriam-Webster, catharsis is “b: a purification or purgation that brings about spiritual renewal or release from tension.”
Empaths rely on their keen sense of self and confidence to read people they encounter. When they meet someone who does not turn out to be as advertised, they’ll keep on walking. 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, I Don’t Want to Be an Empath Anymore, is for you. But it doesn’t always have to be like that. Just because we can take other people’s emotions on doesn’t mean we have to keep them. We tend to think as empaths that maybe we already know everything about how a person feels. But if you ask them about it, you might find yourself surprised. Empaths give. They give of themselves, they give of their time. What they take is the negative. They absorb people’s negative emotions, take away their pain as best as they can.Of course, you do want to help them. As empaths, we always do everything we can to help people out. Often it feels like an obligation like we have no choice otherwise.
This article will help you not only manage the problems that come with being an empath but actually gain the ability to thrive as one. A lot of times, it just stays inside of us. We push the emotions to the side, we ignore ourselves, we live in misery: tired, drained, doing our best. At that point, it becomes so much easier to manage the constant flow of emotions that bombard your senses day in and day out as an empath.But it can get exhausting. Especially when it’s people close to you, who you love and trust. They lie, and you can tell. They think they can lie to you and get away with it, and that can hurt your feelings. There aren’t many, but there are a handful of people who you will meet (or have met) who can tell that you are extraordinarily empathetic. They sense your gift, your ability to understand and show compassion. Even when you feel like you are on the straight and narrow, an empath can sense that something might be missing from your journey. Maybe you took a job, but you really wanted to start your own business. Empaths can tell you what you should be doing with your life, whether you want to hear it or not. 9) They Can See Fake People Or, more likely, you get fed up with the job — too bored and too tired — and move on to something else, in the hopes it’ll be better at the next place. That’s where addictive habits can become a huge difficulty. It’s all too easy to begin overusing drugs, alcohol, sex. Really anything that suspends feeling or emotion and replaces it with euphoria or numbness.
Learning the details of people’s stories and the things that caused them to feel a certain way will benefit you. Studies show talking to strangers is good for everyone, but it can be a useful tool for empaths. So, let’s get started. Here are 8 things I find most difficult about being an empath. The difficulties If your job, your school, or domestic life is boring, you’ll find your thoughts drifting far and wide, lost daydreaming and wishing to be somewhere else. Usually, I’m already overwhelmed and at capacity when I “ignore”. The last thing I want to do is open that connection up even more. But for empaths, compassion just comes with the territory. They can’t help but feel compassionate about almost everybody they meet.Simone Butler, an astrological consultant at www.astroalchemy.com, and author of Moon Power and Astro Feng Shui“Ora North has penned an instant classic. I Don’t Want to Be an Empath Anymore is the kind of book you immediately feel understood by; the kind of book that feels so perfect and obvious, you’re a little surprised it didn’t exist before it did. I devoured it and then gave it to my favorite people, because I wanted them to feel understood too.”
It’s so easy to be overtaxed as an empath. One person you encounter in your day could change your mood entirely and completely sap you of all your energy reserves. And if your day isn’t over, it can happen again. When you feel like you have nothing left. If you talk to the most experienced of empaths, they’ll tell you that a great way to avoid emotional fatigue and contagion is to simply imagine a shield. Place that shield between you — your energy, feelings, emotions — and the energy of those around you. As an empath, you bring their pain into your body and feel it intimately. It’s hard to shut off, and impossible to turn off completely. If you’re bored in your career, here’s a bunch of great jobs where empaths can use their gifts well. 6) Compassion becomes a burdenKathryn L. Robyn, healer, artist, author of Spiritual Housecleaning, and coauthor of The Emotional House“Ora North is the wise, witchy aunt I never had, who has arrived on the scene just when this heartbroken world needs her most. How I wish I could’ve read this bracing tonic of a book when I was sixteen, and so overwhelmed by confusing, painful emotions that all I could do was bury them. Ora reassures us in her straight-talking way that it’s never too late to witness and integrate our dark, scary feelings—and regain our equilibrium. Goddess bless her for doing this groundbreaking work, and for writing this compelling, enlightening book to empower sensitive souls like me!” That leaves you tired, worn out, and almost always exhausted. Sleep is hardly a factor for this kind of weariness. 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.
