Uriel Heals: Channeling Your Empathic Gifts

Don't dare quote this one because of the ferocious sounding copyright notice at the end but still worth the clickthu imo. I found this one interesting as an empath I still find myself falling into the pattern of absorbing and processing emotions for others. When was the most emotional person in my family, still am, excepting when it comes to expressing anger. I was the overly emotional one in the family who expressed anxiety and fear for everyone else so I can see how this works globally as well. IT has been a process learning to block the aborbtion of others emotions and energy. I still choose to do energy work to help others but I refuse to take on other peoples stuff any more. In the past I focused my shielding on neutralizing and transmuting other's energy that would otherwise impact me. Lately I find myself going for the ole 'I'm rubber, you're glue, what you send to me sticks on you.' thing. Not in a vindictive way (Ok is someone is really nasty I enjoy the thought of them getting their stuff bounced right back at 'em) but as a way of hopefully making people take responsability for their own emotional wellbeing instead of dumping their stuff on porous people like me. not sure if this is 'nice' or not but I am trying it for now all the same.

1. I think you are doing the right thing

You have to put up your barriers, and if you do so dispassionately, whatever happens to those who fling emotional stuff at you is, as you say, their responsibility. You are lucky to have never had to deal with processing anger. That is my sore point, one at which I continually work. I do know that anger can open one up to psychic attack, which is not a nice thing at all. Forgiveness is the key, starting with forgiveness of self.

Now if I understood the article right, he's talking about how the old way of processing fear isn't working due to higher vibration, and that we should use our empathy to send energy to the planet rather than individuals so that we don't get trapped in the individual's lower vibrations. OK, this makes sense, and explains why everyone around here has been feeling weird and tired and sort of sick. We work with people who are seeking better health, and so it is very easy to empathize with them and to pick up a bit on their pain, fear, and confusion. Sending energy to the planet, particularly this healing place where we work, might be the better thing to do--what do you think?

3. Try not to get caught in the emotional cycle of others and do any processing *outside* yourself

no more internally taking on other's stuff. 1) you will feel their misery and maybe get sick, 2) they never learn to deal with their STUFF themselves so 3) they never learn to stop psychically polluting themselves & their environment so to speak. It is like a kid who always let's Mom clean their room, do their laundry, cook, etc. Anyhoo my take is empaths, particurlly strong empaths, tend to take on other people's stuff and get so busy with that they rarely take time to care for themselves. Our job is to take care of ourselves so we can raise our vibration and so raise the collective vibration. Also lead by example as best we can in how to at least try to deal with the stuff that our lives hands us. Any help with emotional processing needs to be external work like sending energy to transmute and transform the harmful energy instead of absorbing it and trying to processing it as if it was our own emotion. I like to send energy to the spirit beings in charge of nature to help them heal the harm done to the Earth by my fellow humans including the harm of toxic emotions. While they do not form a river of pink slime in the manner of Ghostbusters II toxic energy really is a problem IMO.

re: processing anger - when around angry people I feel like I am standing in front of a sandblaster. I always feared my own anger and even now have to work at allowing myself to feel it instead of surpressing it for fear of turning into a rageaholic. Sometimes I find it useful to imagine I am Medusa when I am very angry and then picture myself using my laserbeam eyes to dissolve and transform things that really do need to be unmade. I figure destructive energy must be used so why not use it in a constructive instead of destructive way.

2. that explains a lot

for me. It seems when I have classes I end up very overtired and stressed. It starts Monday night with the comms professor, who is sending her anger at me weekly. Everyone at school is very stressed and fearful now.

Then I spend Thursday through Sunday processing the fear and getting back on center. I really don't want to be processing other people's feelings any more. I just don't feel like I have the strength to...but I keep letting myself get sucked in.
