Be Sympathetic to the feelings of others

Beyond empathy, there is being "an Empath" - the ability to actually feel the feelings, thoughts, pain, happiness and distress of others telepathically. It is an innate ability. A mother who feels her child is in danger, a twin who knows a sibling is in distress, or a spouse who feels a loved one is in pain… are all empathic experiences.

Professional caregivers are often drawn to their careers because of their sensitivity to the feelings and needs of others. "People who are Empaths are natural healers, because they often know what's going on with the people they are trying to help," tells Leanne ext. 9896.

"Many people are empathic without even realizing it. When they walk into a room and their energy merges with the energy of another person in the room, or even a pet, to the point that they become aware of their feelings inside their own body - that's empathic," Leanne explains.

There are clear benefits to being an Empath in everyday life, whether or not someone is psychic. "If they are not judgmental of the information they receive from others, it can intensify their powers of communication and deepen relationships," Yvonne ext. 9883 believes.

"Empaths can sense things about other people and situations that help avoid misunderstandings," Maryanne ext. 9146 adds.

"For instance, a person having an empathic experience may be in a situation where someone says one thing, and does another. They feel the other person's truth inside their body. If they trust your instincts, they may end up making a better decision based on the feelings they pick up," Leanne describes.

"Many of my clients have gut feelings about things and they're right on target. When I read for them, I'm often just confirming what they felt from another person, before they had their reading," TeriLynn ext. 9625 reports.

To deepen these skills, anyone can learn to trust instincts as they sense things about people or situations in everyday life, Maryanne suggests. "Allow your natural empathic abilities to be heard and felt. Don't think, I can't know or feel that!"
