Hi,

I just know that i'm an empath by reading some articles. Actually, i feel it like a burden... not good at all. From time to time, people keep telling me, how i know what are they true feelings, intention, or even something that they haven't speak yet... Most of my friends tell me that i have natural gift in understand people.

I confuse for sometimes. No i don't know the answer also until i read article about an empath. So i guess, i just sensing people feelings... their self... their true self without their mask.

The problem is... more days i lived... i feel it like a burden. It feels like, i become a sponge to so much pain and suffering and i put it in to my self and it end damage my self. And what can i say that my life path bring me also to a career path that makes me absorbed that whole terrible thing.

And right now... i end up living like a hermit. Besides my work world, I minimize my contact with outer world.. friends... family... Sometimes feel lonely but it also bring comfort to the self.

And my question is... how to make a border between me and outer world around me... as i always sensing others without my conscious... Can anyone help?

If you have recognized you are an empath, the first lesson is PROTECTION and GROUNDING.  You must find a protection exercise that serves you.  Each of us is unique, so the protection you use will have to suit your own temperament.

I use...I visualize a bubble (similar to one blown from a child's soap bubble pipe) complete with a  rainbow patch as rainbows are such mystical/magical symbols of change, bridges, connections, communication and comes with a pot of gold (prosperity) at the end.  I visualize this bubble expand around me and acknowledge it as a filter of all negativity from within or without.  In this way, all energies will flow, but be filtered.

I do not rise from my bed in the morning without affirmation and protection.  And I repeat both during the stresses of my day.  

If or when the energies get stuck in my head, I stand up and do a grounding exercise with the earth.  I see myself as a strong tree and allow all the energies to go to the roots and into the earth to be renewed.  I see myself drawing strength and nurture from the earth.

I visualize the bubble spiritalk... as i learned from your answer for my other question in this forum... but sometimes it feels it don't work or just work for a few hours.
I remember one of a friend of mine... suggest me to visualize protection every day before i start my daily activity about two years ago... at that time i don't know why he asked me to do that... but lately i quite and bit understand.
And as my job is in the field where i must hear other people burdened in this life... the more i get burdened with all that negative feeling.
Lately i feel that negativity is all around... i don't know... feel like this world is dying and crying... and i get on my depression once again... to the limit that i feel that i can't take it anymore.
Do u still feel others emotion after u start making the bubble spiritalk? Can u tell me how to reduce the impact without need to avoid contact with people... Tx for ur kind help

Try some heavier protection sequences and learn how to shield so that you can take some rest. Allow the emotinos to flow over you and not through you, don't allow them in just taste.
