Empaths: Turning Your Sensitivities Into Superpowers with Dr. Judith Orloff • 102
Empaths feel and absorb other people’s emotions. We’re basically highly sensitive. ⠀
⠀
I sent out a survey a few weeks ago and ask what your biggest struggles are to painting a positive mindset, and one of the most common responses were absorbing other people’s negative energy.⠀
⠀
So I suspect that many of you are on the empath spectrum as well.⠀
⠀
It’s important to identify if you’re an empath or not because then you can actually learn to work with your sensitivities instead of being held back by them.⠀
Your sensitivities can be a gift. It’s almost like heightened intuition.⠀
⠀
You can sense when something is wrong, when people are lying, or saying they’re fine when really they’re upset. You can connect to the universe’s guidance more deeply.⠀
And best of all, you can start to learn where your real emotions end and where other’s begin.⠀
⠀
If you’ve a partial empath or just have trouble not taking on the bad vibes from other people, this episode will be highly valuable for you as well.⠀
⠀
Today we’re talking to Dr. Judith Orloff. Her book The Empath’s Survival Guide was a life-changer for me. And now she’s someone out with her next book Thriving as an Empath, 365 Days of Self-Care for Sensitive People.⠀
⠀
We will learn:⠀
- How to stop absorbing other people’s stress and negative energy
- How to create healthy boundaries in your relationships
- Empath protection strategies including a bunch of journaling prompts to start to connect with your gifts.⠀
