The 10 Big Benefits Of Being An Empath

The 10 Big Benefits of Being an Empath

by Ashley Stamatinos,
Guest writer, In5D.com

Is it hard for you to see any benefit in being an Empath? Do you feel being highly sensitive is a problem for you? Most people feel that their heightened awareness or sensitivity is a burden that they want to shut off and quiet. It’s really important for you to hear how valuable you are as an Empath, and how many wonderful traits you have that set you apart and give you an advantage because you are highly sensitive.

When you get a better understanding of your true nature, realize you are not alone, start accepting your heightened sensitivities and then learn the practicable methods in going to share with you, you will be able to gradually identify and release all those pesky internalized false beliefs you have about how there is something wrong with you.

What if what you believe is wrong about you was your greatest capacity for changing the world and you just don’t yet know how to use your natural abilities yet?

You’re Not Wrong

by Lauren Hayes

I recently had a profound conversation that I want to share with you. It was with my friend, Scout Wilkins, who is also an amazing coach and visionary living in the US. She and I have been dialoguing with each other over the past two years on many, many topics and her approach has helped me so much in putting together the more elusive pieces of my life.

Over the past few years, I’ve been squaring off with an old belief system that was somewhere deep inside my psyche which said: Who you really are – is not acceptable.

I think that this is a really deep belief system embedded in many of us, in different ways, and it’s also not always easy to recognise.

Take me for example, someone who completely shed the life they used to have in Australia, as a licensing executive who travelled the world, made a lot of money, had the expensive home and a wardrobe full of amazing shoes… and became “real” – by embracing my spiritual side and going full-throttle into this new area of myself while I let that old identity go.

You're It

God
Disguised
As a myriad of things and
Playing a game
Of tag

Has kissed you and said,
“You’re it-

I mean you’re really IT!”

Now
It does not matter
What you believe or feel

For something wonderful,

Major-league Wonderful
Is someday going
To

Happen.

The Vibration of Light

by Ted Slipchinsky

"At the same time, I understood that at the core, our essence is made of pure love. We are pure love—every single one of us. How can we not be, if we come from the Whole and return to it? I knew that realizing this meant never being afraid of who we are. Therefore, being love and being our true self is one and the same thing!" ~ Anita Moorjani from Dying To Be Me


Sometimes I think people can get caught up in metaphysical concepts and end up coming to the conclusion that we live in a kind of Nihilistic universe where nothing has value. Yet the best teachers, both within the body and without, are always trying to help us: to be more accepting of ourselves, more compassionate, more creative, more peaceful, and live more meaningful lives. If nothing had value, why do beings as advanced as these even bother? Why intervene in our lives at all and why take a position on such matters as self-love, loving others, or living more joyful lives?

In my opinion, if one looks more deeply into this, one finds that indeed the teachers do speak of what, for lack of better words, I would call "intrinsic value." Now you don't have to accept dualistic concepts such as "right and wrong," or "good and evil" to affirm intrinsic value.

Homeless enjoy meal of a lifetime after couple call off wedding

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — After a California couple called off their wedding, the bride-to-be’s family decided to turn the extravagant, $35,000  event into a feast for the homeless.

The bride’s mother, Kari Duane, said Sunday that rather than cancel the reception, they invited Sacramento’s homeless for a once-in-a-lifetime meal Saturday at the Citizen Hotel, one of the city’s finest venues.

Duane said her 27-year-old daughter called her Monday to tell her she and her fiance had decided not go through with the wedding. Soon after, the family decided to share the nonrefundable event with the less fortunate.

“Even though my husband and I were feeling very sad for our daughter, it was heartwarming to see so many people be there and enjoy a meal,” Duane said.

The Message of Consciousness

by Ervin K. Kery

Now, it is not the “lot of cleverness” accumulated in me who wants to talk to the “lot of cleverness” accumulated in you. Now it is not the mind, wishing to initiate a mind game with another mind. We now avoid all the cleverness, wittiness, beliefs and dogmas, and the spirit living in me is going to address the spirit living in you. Consciousness is talking to the Consciousness in you.

These are the words of the living spirit hiding inside you, contacting the living spirit hiding in you. Read it therefore slowly and understand my message.

And I am talking to you as follows:

You are now here, reading these lines. These lines were, in fact, not written, read and understood by somebody else, but your own spiritual self, hiding deep inside you. You sense and you know, that I–what you call I–talk to you now. You have written these lines, and they contain a message to you.

I am looking into myself, pierce the superficiality of the ordinary world, in order to reach my real Self, and I know:

I have a body, exposed to illnesses, which will certainly perish one day. I will die. The movie of my life will end and I fall into the great Nothingness. I will make my final exit from the stage of life.

A Message To The Reader from Teal Scott Swan

My Dear Friend,

man vs societyA child is born.  Shortly thereafter, it is molded by society into something that is needed by society.  The child becomes a utility, more like a part of a machine.  Our society is a society of ignorance and cowardice.  It is a society of ignorance because it fails to see that every person is born with a destiny and that by molding him or her into something, we prevent that destiny.   Our society is cowardice because it does not want to take the risk of seeing what people would turn into and what society itself would turn into, if people were allowed to let that destiny unfold within them with no external interference.

"Dark Night of the Soul"

By Jillian Lavinge

Oh sweet souls! It has been a minute or two since I have written anything in my blog.  Truth be told I am writing A LOT these days.  I started freelance writing for a website that shares information and articles on log houses, tiny houses, sustainable living, off grid living, gardening, extraterrestrials, spirituality, health and wellness, recipes and more.  The website is called Wikidee and I absolutely LOVE my job with them on this team.  It pays very well, and I keep getting promoted, and they have even called me their best writer!  I am constantly amazed and so grateful for this opportunity to get paid working doing something I love, working from home!  Which has always been a goal of mine.

These past few years have just been wild wild wild, wonderful... and wild!  Living out on Vancouver Island was a beautiful experience that both Steve and I loved so much, it is truly a magical place, but with that magic comes other energies.

Being on an island, surrounded by water, can really magnify emotions, as this is what the water element embodies, it is the goddess,  the watery, emotional energy... So suffice it to say, I personally, had emotions to work through and process, as it is a part of the whole process of awakening and being a whole multidimensional being.

Inspired Thoughts

by Molly Robertson, AllToLove.com

I love just sitting and listening to my thoughts...the good ones. The ones that make me feel super human, blissed out, in love and oh so happy. Now, I realize, those are the ones I am supposed to listen to. Nothing else. I am the master of my own mind and I can choose in every moment what I want to think, or how I want to think about any situation. Mainly me. How do I feel about myself, this life and this experience?

I finally feel able to write again, after a long hiatus. It's been a funny year. A lot of shifting, changing, and inner-mind-work-planning (that's meditating and visualizing LOTS). It's all within me...really.

My life is changing. I am going through massive shifts. Letting go of all that I have worked toward in the last 8 years and moving into a more authentic and truthful life; by being me.

You know. We are told we are meant to be something. Choose a career. Blah, blah, blah. What if I don't want to choose anything outside of myself? What if I just want to be me? Could that be enough? Could I make a truly kickass life, by not striving anymore, by simply, everyday being exactly who I am and letting whatever wants to flow out of me be what I am. This is how I want to 'make a living.' By just being.
