Introduction
IN A HIGH-stimulus world, many people struggle with the onslaught of input in various forms. Our senses are bombarded, and if limits are not set, this bombardment and sensory overload can be continuous. Research has shown that our autonomous nervous systems are becoming extra sensitive because of this overload. This leads to all kinds of ailments like hormone imbalances and compromised immune systems. Empaths have to deal with this in an exponentially greater way. They are wired to feel things so much more deeply and passionately. Empaths not only feel all these emotions but absorb and take on the energies of people that they are surrounded with. The more people, the more chaos, the more they absorb the turmoil and negativity.
Empaths rely on their feelings and intuition as the filter through which they interact with the world. They are giving, compassionate, excellent friends, but one of the most attractive qualities of empaths is their ability to completely understand you and to truly listen. This can leave empaths open and vulnerable to abuse by others, emotional exhaustion and the need for isolation. This often leaves them misunderstood by others, relegating them to a world of seclusion or addiction.
This book explores what it is to be an empath. It explores the ideas around what, and more importantly, why they are experiencing what they do. Empaths and people surrounded by empaths can better understand their behaviors and responses in situations and can be better equipped to help them if necessary or be a support structure for them. Many empaths can result in depressions, social anxiety, panic attacks or a range of addictions if they do not understand what is happening to them and how to protect themselves. This book will teach you that empaths do not need to feel overwhelmed all the time. By recognition, understanding, and acceptance, one can navigate the world successfully. It is also meant to inspire empaths to embrace their purpose in life by looking at how some famous empaths changed the world. This book provides techniques and tools to live a fuller, happier life as an empath.
This book is to validate and affirm empaths who may be feeling confused and overwhelmed. Whether you are, or someone you know is an empath, this will help you gain a better understanding and appreciation of what it means to be an empath in the modern world. This is extremely important as it can change our world.
Chapter One: What Does It Mean to Be an Empath?
Who is an empath? Have you found that you become extremely emotional around pain, cruelty, and loss, to the point where you will not watch certain movies, the news, or you find yourself staying away from social media? Do you find that this emotion can stay with you for days and that it can be difficult to shake off? Perhaps you were always told that you were too sensitive as a child. Sometimes you feel misunderstood by people thinking you are avoiding relevant and topical issues, and you should rather be pro-active in trying to solve them. People do not understand that the emotion you feel can be crippling. If any of this feels familiar to you, you may well be an empath.
Living in a world filled with injustice, pain, and suffering can be very daunting for an empath. As you might have guessed, the word empath comes from ’empathy’. The dictionary defines empathy as the ability to relate, understand, and share the feelings of someone else. Empaths do this, but it is on an exponentially deeper level. Empaths, therefore absorb the energies of the world, this can be negative ones associated with stress and pain or positive ones associated with joy and love. Experiencing these emotions to such an extreme level can make one feel slightly lost and misunderstood by others. You can feel like you just don’t belong. However, being an empath can be one of the greatest skills you can have if you learn how to live with it.
Empaths are people who are extremely susceptible to the emotions of others. This ability to relate so personally to others makes empaths one of the best nurturers, listeners, and givers that you will find. Empaths compassion for people can leave them feeling exhausted, but the good news is that they can develop strategies to create boundaries and protect their feelings.
Scientific Theories
For those skeptics who think empaths belong to the category of fairies and folktales, there are five interesting scientific arguments for empaths and empathy.
ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELDS
The heart and brain both create electromagnetic fields which transmit information about people’s feelings and thoughts. Empaths are incredibly sensitive to these fields. These fields can be documented and provide scientific evidence of what empaths engage with.
Mirror Neuron System
It has been discovered that there are cells in the brain that mirror people’s emotions. When your child is hurt at school, you feel hurt too. When your spouse gets an increase, you feel their joy as well. Empaths are thought to have hyper-sensitive mirror neurons compared to other people and therefore can relate to and feel deep compassion for others—even strangers.
Conversely, "empathy deficient disorders" like sociopaths, psychopaths, narcissists, and even people with autism have desensitized mirror neurons and do not feel empathy toward others. Experiments have been done and measured through fMRI, which
