Hello,
Debated with myself whether to post here or not.
Decided to share some thoughts here.
I feel others feelings. When they share (outside of here and at times here) can feel thier emotions.
At times can be a little taxing on me, for have my own well being to consider.
My own well being to consider seems the key. For if I take on too much of someone else's energy, feel drained and sometimes get intertwined with in the energy of another and my own.
So, what came to me a while back was "take what is mine to be mine and what is for another to for them". At times easier said then done especially if a close connection is felt.
Healing can come in many ways. Prayer, a touch, giving another space to express him/her self without judgement, relating to the feelings expressed.
Takes effort on both parties to do this and trust.
Effort on my part to listen and reach out if asked. Effort on the others part to listen and do what one can to help themselves.
Being sensitive does not mean one is weak or one has to take on the world, so to speak. It means one has a heart and cares. But, sometimes with an open heart, taking care and/or listening to my own intuition and emotions may take a back seat.
This can lead to imbalances with in myself, as I notice. So, at times have to be impartial, not uncaring, just giving myself the space to not take it all on.
If advice is asked, can give how I feel it to be. It is up to individual to put the work into bringing healing into his/her life. As I have experienced with myself.
Now am not a designated healer or counselor, just a guy living in this world who happens to be sensitive towards others.
Sometimes for me it simply takes giving another a place/person whom they can talk to. At times that is all they want, to let it out. For me takes letting it go and keeping my heart open. To pay attention to my own feelings and if felt overwhelmed or tired to breath and let the other know just not the time for it or however can be communicated that I am not in the mood ( so to speak).
Just sharing this because I feel many are more empathetic and sense things in others more then he/she may let on.
One more thing comes to mind that helps me;"there is a time to speak and a time to be silent." Listen to the intuition.
