The Empowered Empath
Dear Empath & Highly Sensitive
You are a channel for the brightest most uplifting energy.
You are Love itself.
Your sensitivity and ability to feel things deeply is an absolute superpower.
Lets activate it!
As highly sensitives it’s easy to get swept away by the energies around us, taking on other people's fear as our own, for then to end up feeling confused, scared or anxious.
As someone who is very sensitive to the energies around me, this topic is so near and dear to my heart. I once felt so lost in this world, and didn’t know how handle my sensitivity.
I would often feel overwhelmed, overloaded, depleted and exhausted. The world felt scary, and oftentimes I would feel weighted down by everything.
I felt things so deeply. Sometimes I wished I didn’t… Sometimes it all felt like more than I could handle.
Let me tell you, it doesn’t have to be like that!
I will show you how to shift from feeling overwhelmed to empowered, and go from surviving to thriving!
You are here, because you are ready for this shift.
I am here to guide you from where you are today, to where you want to be!
Today, I have build my entire life and business around what I thought was my weakness— my sensitivity. I live my purpose and share my gifts with the world in powerful ways. I thrive as a highly sensitive knowing that I chose to be here and have everything within me to cultivate a beautiful and harmonious Earth-life.
I live free.
First of all…..being sensitive to energies doesn't have to feel like a burden! On the contrary it’s actually the most incredible thing!! It’s a full on MIRACLE and so sacred and beautiful.
You just need awareness and tools on how to handle it.
Over time you will avoid picking up other people’s stuff or getting caught in other people’s drama, and instead feel strong in your light, empowered and joyful- inside out!
Your sensitivity has the potential to be such a great force of good, and it’s a powerful tool for transformation. You have an incredible ability to transmute, shift and change energies.
YES, it's possible to stay in control of your own energy.
YES, it's possible to feel grounded and empowered, and no longer be easily influenced by the energy of others.
YES, it's possible to have deep empathy and compassion for others, while also having strong boundaries— without feeling guilty about it.

CONNECT WITH THE TRUTH OF WHO YOU ARE
Many empaths and highly sensitives may feel that the world around them is very harsh.
They may then think that it’s better to avoid certain situations, people or conversations, because they don't feel they have the strength to deal with it, without ending up depleted and completely out of balance.
Because they easily feel other people's unfelt emotions, they can tend to close themselves off, and go into isolation.
There is a difference between needing time alone to recharge and rejuvenate- and making this a way of life where one are living very isolated. This can result in a lack of connection with others, and it can hold us back from fully embracing our soul mission, and stepping forward to be seen.
When an empath is stuck in fear-based stories, and do not believe in themselves (yes, this has a lot to do with lack of confidence and feelings of self-doubt) they can unconsciously absorb negativity, fear and worry- for then to resend this same energy.
The first step in shifting this is to realise the power of choice. We actually choose if and when to absorb something energetically, and when to shift it. As deeply empathic beings, we are in control of our gift to feel and shift energy, and we get to decide. We get to choose what to do with the energy that we choose to take in.
I invite you to reflect on this:
If you are present with a person or situation that feels uncomfortable, how does this make you feel? Perhaps you can sense unfelt emotions, blocked energy and deeper feelings that is calling out to be felt. How is this affecting you? Are you starting to take this in, circulating the same energy - or are you fully confident in yourself, and knows exactly what you can do here? Are you fully aware that you HAVE A CHOICE, or do you feel that you “have to absorb and hold onto these energies?”
Do you feel confident and strong in the truth of who you are, or do you fear that you are going to pick up negative energies and carry them with you? Are you worried about picking up negativity in a way that will deplete you? Do you feel like an empowered empath or a dis-empowered empath?
☾
Many children didn’t have parents who knew how to support them and their sensitivity. Many children were not valued, seen or appreciated. Many children had little support in developing their intuitive gifts. As a result of this, many children started to hide their truth, because they did not felt safe living it.
As they grew older, many felt their sensitivity to be more of a burden and a weakness, than a gift. This then led them to live from a place of fear, rather than love.
If this is you, be gentle with yourself as you are now learning how to do support yourself and your sensitivity. You are reclaiming your truth. You are also unlearning old patterns that made you doubt yourself, and you are clearing old negative stories connected to yourself and your sensitivity.
Know your sensitivity to be a gift, and know how to manage it. Chances are that no one ever taught you about this, so embrace this process of learning how to best support yourself.
☾
TAKE YOUR POWER BACK
You have the power to transform emotions, energy, and feelings not only for yourself, but on behalf of others, and on behalf of the collective.
It’s my deepest wish that you do not feel this as a burden, but a total gift and superpower.
It’s crucial to come into the knowing that you have a say in it all! This is a total game changer that will shift everything!
You do not have to take in anything. You are not obligated, it’s not your duty, or responsibility, and your are certainly not a victim to energies around you.
As you feel/read emotions and energies around you, you choose if you want to absorb it.
If you like, you can cut off from it, then simply observe— not absorb.
Or you can choose to take in it, for then to release it or transmute it.
You don’t have to run away or avoid the uncomfortable. You can consciously choose to stay in your power even if in uncomfortable situations.
Let go of the belief that you have no power over the energy in which you come into contact with. Just know how to process it… It’s about awareness, tools, confidence and knowing who you are!
So many highly sensitives feels totally overwhelmed by all that they are feeling, and think that their only option is to remove themselves from situations and certain people to avoid depletion.
Rather than getting stuck in a flight fight response, and feeling unable to do anything, begin to actively process what you receive and take in. Or choose to not take it in at all….
Many empaths spend lots of time clearing, cleansing and trying to protect themselves energetically. As you shift into the empowered empath mode, you will free up so much more time to LIVE and feel the joys of pure freedom. This is really much about a mindset-shift and a change in how you view yourself, and life.

INQUIRY
Are you observing or absorbing?
When absorbing, is this a conscious choice or happening outside of your control?
When absorbing, do you feel confident in knowing what to do about it?
☾
ALIGN WITH LOVE
Instead of being scared that you will absorb negative energy
focus on uplifting your own & deepen the connection to your truth.
Ground yourself…..
connect and align with the essence of Divine Love..
…that is YOU.
The core essence of who you are is love. Nothing will ever change this. The more you align with love, the more amazing you feel. The more amazing you feel, the more easily you fall into sync with the sacred flow of life.
If you worry about picking up something negative you are then operating from fear, and chances are higher that you will actually pick up something, for you are basically inviting it in.
If you walk in fear and have the need to constantly protect yourself, then what you are trying to protect yourself from, will only grow. Please note this difference and shift in awareness. Where attention goes, energy flows.
Instead of living in fear and worry, connect with Divine Love and your I AM presence everyday and nourish it. Focus on grounding yourself and creating safety and stability inside out, so you feel really strong and confident and in charge of what you take in, and what you do about it.
You strengthen your energy field to be nearly impenetrable by anything that is not uplifting and loving, and then stop unconsciously absorb lower vibrational energy.
You either strengthen your connection to fear, or to love. As you nourish your love-connection daily, this will be your driving force and you will be able to sustain this reality of love, no matter what kind of environment you are stepping into.
When you are able to do this, you are of great service to this planet, inspiring others to choose love over fear.
If you have developed patterns of fear, worry, mistrust and anxiety, this can be changed into new patterns of love, inner peace and trust. The key is to go within and strengthen your own connection to love.
This is where your power lies.
Instead of fearing what might hit you from the outside, return to the power that lies within, the power of your Divine Soul! Get into the driver’s seat.
IT'S NOT YOUR JOB TO SAVE THEM
It can be tempting to carry other’s people’s pain for them, to do it all for them, or somehow try to ‘make’ them feel better or happy or free— but you are not here to save anyone..
There is no need to carry the weight of the world on your shoulders. It will only make you so very tired…
Yes, it's possible to have deep empathy and so much love and compassion for others, but that does not mean taking in their pain or fears.
Nothing is yours to carry. Nothing is yours to take on. No ones happiness, health or well-being matters more than your own.
Taking in other’s energy, absorbing fear or negativty that is swirling around and failing to maintain a strong healthy energetic field is one of the most common reasons sensitive people and empaths feel exhausted and overwhelmed.
And no inspired action comes from overwhelm… you can’t do what you came here to do, if you feel overwhelmed.
The more we let in, choose to carry on our shoulders or feel responsible for, the more tired we feel…
You may say “But I am not willingly absorbing this negativity energy”.
The truth is that on some level you are.
You do not have to take in anything. This is a big shift in belief and mindset.
It doesn’t matter how dearly you love them, and wish for their happiness…
Nothing is yours to carry.
If you do choose to absorb energies, then you also know what to do with it. You know that you can release, shift, let go or transmute.
You can always feel empowered in your energy as you know your power as an Infinite Soul, a Sovereign Light Being.
You are not here to save the world, nor feeling your soul mission as a burden, for truly it is magically fun!!
✨✨Remember that✨✨
You are needed for the long run
It has only just begun….
So take care of yourself, child.
Take care of yourself!

Connect with love upon waking
As soon as you wake up, place your hands on your heart and connect with love. Notice your thoughts and where they want to drift off to, bring them back into the present moment, back to love! Let yourself be filled with excitement for what this day will bring.
End the day the same way: hands on heart, connected to love and in gratitude for the day. Ask Source Light to cleanse and replenish you as you sleep.Let the light protect you
If you have days where you feel extra sensitive, and it feels like you are easily absorbing dense energies, make sure that you ground yourself and take refuge within the inner sanctuary of love. Call upon protection from the Ascended Masters, Archangels or other Spirit Guides, which are always answering your call.
You may want to visualise light surrounding you. Return to the truth of “I AM LOVE”, and repeat this mantra while you feel love flowing within and all around you.
You are always protected by the light.
When you are shielding and protecting yourself remember to come from a place of grounded, loving awareness, instead of coming from fear and trying to force anything.
I use my essential oils on a daily basis, morning and evening and throughout the day, to take care of myself, my vibration and my energy.
Remember that no harmful energies can enter your field without your permission. Love is the most powerful force there is. It conquer all darkness, and the more you trust in the power of love, the more amazing you will feel, and your energy field with be nearly impenetrable by that which is not life-affirming, strengthen, loving and uplifting. Trust in yourself and all that you are! This is so much about clearing deep rooted self-doubt and a lack of self-love.Keep a daily spiritual practice: Have a sacred space where you cultivate a beautiful loving energy, and where you can safely feel, and just be. Start each day connecting with your inner sanctuary and strengthen your connection to love. You then feel strong in your energy, connected to inner peace and the light of love inside your heart, and are less likely to unconsciously absorb fear or negativity.
Mantra: "My heart is my home, I return to where I belong. Love, peace and joy fill my entire being. I am home. Thank you."Be discerning and uphold strong boundaries
This is a direct reflection of your self-worth. Don't say yes when you mean no and avoid abandoning yourself to please someone else. Instead, stay true to you and honor yourself deeply. Fill up your own cup and let it overflow. Choose yourself. Be proud of yourself, and worry less what other people think of you. Any healing and empowerment work will strengthen this. The deeper your self-love, the easier it's to uphold boundaries. Often times weak boundaries is a sign of seeking outside for something (approval, love, validation), worrying what people think of you, fear of rejection and so forth.Spend time in nature
This is MEDICINE! (Leave your phone at home)Use Essential Oils and let Mother Nature support you
My favourites for grounding are Balance, Frankincense, Vetiver, Cedarwood and Sandalwood. I also use Tea Tree to help cleanse my energy. Other favourites are Wild Orange and Bergamot to cleanse and uplift! Grapefruit too!
Having a daily ritual with Balance to set a grounded, protective space and feel calm, secure and safe is absolutely amazing and I highly recommend it.Let water cleanse you
Water is deeply healing. Taking a warm bath with sea salt and calming essential oils is an amazing way to reduce stress, cleanse and rejuvenate. If you have the opportunity to go for an outdoor swim this is so wonderful.Blessings— and all the love from my heart to yours!
