Gain a Better Understanding of the Gift of Empathy
The gift of empathy is a psychic ability. It is simply a vessel through which information is received through feeling the information.
There are many types of empaths. You may only be one type, two types, or even all of the types. Understanding the ability helps tremendously in learning to better cope with it.
The gift of empathy is never your only ability. Though it may or may not be your strongest ability, it is always accompanied by other psychic abilities and/or medium ability.
There are those who list other types beyond the three types I listed below, however, after years of teaching others about their abilities, some of the others that many list as different types, in my opinion, are simply empathy coupled with other psychic abilities.
The three types of empathy I have listed below are the most common types.
Emotional Empaths
The most common type of empath is the emotional empath. Emotional empaths literally feel other people’s emotions. If you are an emotional empath, you may become very emotionally overwhelmed with all the emotions you absorb from others as well as your own.
An important thing to remember for the emotional empath is, if you cannot trace a sudden emotion directly back to a thought you just had, it does not belong to you. The simple realization of that can often make the emotion subside a bit as your mind will then not accept it as your own. Our own thoughts cause our own emotions.
Physical Empaths
The physical empath is the second most common. Physical empaths feel other people’s physical pain.
If you are a physical empath, others may see you as a hypochondriac, as you may often feel the same symptoms as those in your living environment, however, when you visit a doctor, an ailment cannot be found to explain the pain.
This type can be quite overwhelming as well. You may constantly feel bad, and feel hopeless for a solution since a medical reason for what is causing the pain cannot be found. It is often said of those who are physical empaths they carry sympathy pain for others.
Paying close attention to who is around when the pain occurs and reoccurs can help you pinpoint who the pain actually belongs to, and thus in just simply knowing where the pain goes can help ease the pain being felt by the empath.
Medium Empaths
This particular type of the gift of empathy has to do with feeling the emotions of those who are no longer living.
The medium empath is the empath who is also a medium. Medium empaths feel the emotions of those who are stuck here as ghosts and/or those who have crossed to the other side.
You may often walk into a room where there is no one, yet know you are not alone.
Places may have “feelings” to you, as you may also feel residual energy left behind by others in places.
Medium Empaths often wake up between 3 am and 4 am no matter how soundly you may be sleeping, or even what time you went to bed. This is because the veil is thinnest between the dimensions of here and the other side during these times, and it is literally felt to the degree that it wakes you up!
If you are both a physical empath and a medium empath, you may also feel the physical pain associated with one’s death who is stuck here as a ghost. The pain in these cases may be instant and then instantly gone but does not linger much like a “flash” of information through feeling it.
Regardless of the type of the gift of empathy you carry with you through life, the information you receive psychically is felt. This is what distinguishes the gift of empathy from other psychic abilities.
