Here are Common Benefits I love being empathic. I am grateful for the blessings my
sensitivity bestows on me each day. I love being intuitive, feeling the flow of energy in the
world, reading people and experiencing the richness that is so open to life and nature.
Empaths have many wonderful qualities. We have big hearts and an instinct to help others in
need or less fortunate.We are dreamers and idealists. We are also passionate, insightful,
creative, in touch with our emotions, compassionate and able to see the big picture. We can
appreciate the feelings of others and become true friends and companions. We are intuitive,
spiritual and we can feel the energy.
We have a special appreciation for nature and feel at home there.We are in
resonance with nature, its plants, forests and gardens, and we often love water. Whether we
are immersed in the warm waters of a bath, like a womb, or living next to an ocean or a
river, water gives us energy. In addition, we feel a strong intuitive bond with our
conspecifics. We often talk to them as if they were human, and we can get involved in
animal rescue or communicating with animals. Common Challenges Once you start facing
the challenges of an empath and gain more coping skills, you are really enjoy all the
benefits yourself.
Common Challenges
I have encountered and seen with my friends and workshop participants include:
● Sensory overload. Because you don't have the same protection as others, you may
feel like you have exposed nerve endings and burn easily. Without enough time to
recharge and relax each day, you will suffer from the toxic effects of sensory overload
and sensory overload.

● Absorbing the stress and negativity of others. Sometimes you can't tell if a feeling or
feeling of physical discomfort is yours or someone else's. Embracing other people's
suffering can cause a variety of physical and emotional symptoms, from pain to
anxiety. for the extreme feeling of things. You can't watch violent or disturbing movies
about people or animals because the cruelty hurts too much. Maybe you carry the
burden of the world and feel the pain of others in your life or those you see suffering
in the news.
● Feelings of emotional and social hangovers. When you are around too many people
or intense emotions, the discomfort of emotional overload can linger long after the
event.
● Feeling of loneliness and isolation. You may isolate yourself or withdraw from people
because the world seems so overwhelming. As a result, others may look away from
you. Like many empaths, you can be so vigilant when scanning your surroundings to
make sure it's safe that others take it as a signal to stay away. You may also freeze
around inauthentic people, which can convey aloofness—but this is clearly a
protective device. Some empaths prefer socializing online to keep others at a
distance, so there’s less of the tendency to absorb their discomfort and stress.
● Experiencing emotional burnout. A downside of being so compassionate is that
people flock to you to tell you their life stories. Ever since I was a child, it was as if I
wore a sign saying, “I can help you.” This is why empaths must set clear boundaries
with others and not “overgive.”
● Coping with increased sensitivity to light, smell, taste, touch, temperature, and sound.
For many empaths and me, loud noises and bright lights are painful. They enter our
body and attack. I cover my ears as the ambulance drives by. Hearing rustling of
leaves and noise of machinery is disturbing. I can't stand explosives either. They
startle me and I act like a scared dog. Empaths have a strong startle response as we
respond to strong sensory input. Strong odors and chemicals, such as exhaust fumes
and perfumes, can cause discomfort, allergies or suffocation. We are also sensitive
to extreme temperatures and may not like air conditioning. Our bodies can be
energized or depleted by extreme weather such as thunderstorms, high winds, or
snowfall. Many empaths are energized by the bright full moon, while others are
excited by it.
● Needs in intimate relationships. Empaths have specific needs when they share a
room or share a bed with someone. Many require a separate room and sometimes a
separate bed to be comfortable. It's important to empathize with your partner about
their specific needs.
