"Having empathy means our heart goes out to another person in joy or pain," says Dr. Judith Orloff. "But for empaths, it goes much further. We actually feel others' emotions, energy, and physical symptoms in our own bodies, without the usual defenses that most people have." The Empath's Survival Guide is an invaluable resource for empaths who want to develop coping skills in a high-stimulus world while embracing their gifts of intuition, compassion, creativity, and spiritual connection.

Story
Negativity is a normal part of life. Nobody can be positive all that time because life isn’t always going to be perfect. That said, sometimes negativity infiltrates our minds and bodies and never leaves. A good day can be ruined by your mind dwelling on something stupid that happened years ago. You sit for hours ruminating over it, and before you realize it, you have wasted a great day. We’ve all had experiences like that, and they suck.

Communication is a fundamental part of all human relationships. It is the basis for the transfer of information and ideas. Unfortunately, poor communication can cripple bonds in both your personal and professional life.

Have you ever known people who became too involved in other people’s problems, who could not set limits, and who could not distinguish between their own feelings and the feelings of someone else? Could it be their high level of empathy, paired with an inability to guard against the dangers of that trait? In chapters on codependency and narcissistic abuse, Empath explores what can happen when empathy exists without boundaries, explains how to recognize when you’re in a toxic relationship, and provides suggestions for improving or exiting the relationship.

Empathy is something we all feel at one time or another in our lives. It is a necessary human experience and the ability to have a compassionate sense of feeling for another person. You may not have considered yourself an empath before, because our culture hasn't considered it for a long time. It's a valid diagnosis for a person and empaths often end up being accused of being overly sensitive, sometimes sick or depressed, anti-social, and reclusive. If you think that you may be an empath and want to find out how to help you embrace your gift, then don't look any further.
