Do You Get Drained By Other People's Energy? - By Judith Orloff M.D.

> (Adopted from Guide to Intuitive Healing by Judith Orloff,M.D.)
>
> Growing up, my girlfriends couldn't wait to hit the shopping malls
> and go to parties, the bigger the better--but I didn't share their
> excitement. I always felt overwhelmed, exhausted around large groups
> of people, though I was clueless why. "What's the matter with you?"
> friends would say, shooting me the weirdest looks. All I knew was
> that crowded places and I just didn't mix. I'd go there feeling just
> fine but leave nervous, depressed, or with some horrible new ache or
> pain. Unsuspectingly, I was a gigantic sponge, absorbing the energy
> of people around me.
>
> Thank goodness, as my intuition matured, I had a life-changing
> revelation. From conversations with other healers and from working
> with patients I realized I was experiencing intuitive empathy: the
> ability to sense what's going on in others both emotionally and
> physically as if it were happening to me. Amazing at times, but also
> challenging. Let me explain the dynamics of empathy: the more people
> per square foot, the more our energy fields intersect--thus the
> tendency to become overloaded in high-density areas. This aspect of
> intuition is the most neglected and misunderstood.
>
> I'm not referring to ordinary empathy--for instance, when you
> sympathize with a friend whose fiancee left her, or share your
> brother's joy on the birth of his first child. Intuitive empathy goes
> way beyond. It's the capacity to energetically merge with someone
> else and, for the moment, see life (positive and negative) through
> their eyes, sense the world through their feelings. If this describes
> you, it may be impossible to distinguish these sensations from your
> own, throwing you off center.
>
> I know. I've been there. That my intuitive empathy has become a gift
> is mind-blowing--and a tremendous relief. Many of us never get to the
> good part of empathy because we're not shown how. What ails us even
> eludes our doctors. We go in for care, but it's like the blind
> leading the blind. No one know what's going on. Empaths,
> unintentionally, can make even a good doctor's life hell. They
> manifest such a barrage of "unexplained" treatment-resistant
> symptoms, that frustrated physicians write them off as
> hypochondriacs. Empaths are notoriously misdiagnosed. Patient after
> patient has come to me labeled "agoraphobic" or with "panic
> disorder," having received only minor respite from traditional
> treatments: valium and behavior therapy. Some were nearly house-
> bound. They'd all say, "I dread being in crowded places where I can't
> make a quick escape. Forget department stores, busy streets,
> elevators, tunnels. I avoid them like the plague." Sounded very
> familiar. So I decided to take a history of how these people
> processed subtle energy in the world, something all healers must be
> trained to assess. Voila! I found many were undiagnosed empaths. For
> me, this changed everything. My job then became teaching my patients
> to center themselves and deal with the day-to-day nuances of energy
> more productively.
>
> In my workshops I always inquire, "How many of you have intuitive
> empathy?" It's astounding. Hands shoot up from at least a quarter of
> the room. Of those people, nearly everyone concurs, "I had no idea
> how to describe my feelings, let alone cope with them." Then they'd
> dangerously conclude, "I thought something was wrong with me for
> being 'overly sensitive'." I want to dispel such a myth, illustrate
> how you can positively utilize this form of intuition in daily life.
> From telephone calls, letters, and feedback I receive during my
> workshops from New York to Omaha, I've seen how widespread empathy
> is. How do you know if you have it? What are the signs to look for?
>
> Intuitive Empathy quiz: Ask yourself:
>
> *Have you ever been placed next to someone at a dinner party who
> seems pleasant, but suddenly you're nauseous, have a pounding
> headache, or feel drained?
> *Are you uncomfortable in crowds, even go out of your way to avoid
> them?
> *Do you get easily over-stimulated by people or prefer being alone?
> *When someone is distressed or in physical pain, do you start feeling
> it too?
>
>
> Tally your responses. If you've answered "yes" to one or more
> questions, it's likely you have experienced intuitive empathy.
> Responding "yes" to every question indicates empathy plays an active
> role in your life. If you're still unsure, take some time to notice
> how you relate to people one-to-one or in groups. It may require
> slowing such interactions down to become more aware of your style of
> processing energy. When learning to center yourself, this information
> is essential.
>
> Here's a life-saving "Root Planting Meditation" to get
> your started
> grounding your energy. (More techniques to come in the next
> newsletter.)
>
> Sitting in meditation is a life-line to your center, to the earth. By
> calming the mind, you can re-align with your essence. Close your
> eyes. Focus on your breath. Then gently extend your awareness
> downward to strata, bedrock, minerals, and soil. From the base of
> your spine begin to feel a continuity with the earth's core. Picture
> having a long tail that roots in that center. Allow the earth's
> energy to infuse your body and stabilize you. If you meditate for
> five minutes or an hour this is sacred time to ground yourself.
