A Helpful Book for Empaths, Part 3

     While I highly recommend Rose Rosetree's book, Become The Most Important Person in the Room, which teaches the empath how to function healthfully, I need to talk about style.

     If you are the kind of person who likes to be poked in the ribs by your teacher until you crack a smile, and who likes clown noses on your newscasters, then you will love this book.  However, if you are from the "just the facts, ma'am" camp, well, consider this a lesson in tolerance.  I personally found the style a little off-putting at first, but since the content is so useful, I learned to overlook it. 

     If you are an empath struggling with picking up other people's stuff, do yourself a favor and order this book.  But in terms of the style, consider yourself forewarned.

A Helpful Book for Empaths, Part 2

     The book, Become The Most Important Person in the Room, is organized as a 30-day plan to learn to function healthfully as an empath.  The author, Rose Rosetree, states that most empaths pick up stuff from other people (physical pain, emotional gunk, and so on) because they do not know how to do an empath merge safely.  For the first 27 days of the program, Rosetree teaches the struggling empath about how to stop doing these unskilled empath merges by focusing on different parts of oneself.  This way, you become the most important person in the room (an uncomfortable state for most empaths, at least in the beginning). 

     At first, I was skeptical.  After all, aren't empaths gifted for the purpose of helping others?  What about those empaths who can take in other people's stuff on purpose, then funnel that stuff into Mother Earth to be recycled?  Although I know people who can do this, I cannot at this point.  Rosetree's techniques help me to keep from doing the unskilled empath merges in the first place.

     I know, I know, we were all taught to protect ourselves with a thick layer of white light.  Rosetree stated, much to my relief because it confirms my own experience, that this doesn't work for most empaths.  One quick thought, one lingering look in some one's eyes, and WHAM -- we've done an unskilled empath merge.  With that, we've brought into our aura all sorts of stuff that really doesn't belong to us.  By the end of the day, we're wiped out, or we get sick because of all the extra issues we carry around that we really don't need to.

     Are you an empath?  Do yourself a favor and order this book.  In a month, you'll find yourself with a whole new way to life.

    

A Helpful Book for Empaths

     While researching different coping techniques for empaths, I found a website that advertised a book that was supposed to provide helpful tips.  Of course, I ordered it.

     Thirty days later, I found a whole new way to function.  Not only did this book give me several ways to turn my gifts off, but it also gave me techniques to use my gifts safely.  That's huge!

     What is this book?  It's called Become the Most Important Person in the Room by Rose Rosetree.  You can view ordering information here.  Next week, I'll discuss some of the things I learned.

Anam Cara and Twin Souls

     It's this time of year that my heart hearkens back to Celtic lands and the old ways.  Perhaps it is the echo of Celtic past lives ringing in my ears. 

     There is a term used by the Irish that fits the unique relationship of one soul to another:  anam cara.  It means literally "soul friend," and it refers to the relationship in which one feels completely understood and accepted by another soul.  The Irish believe that one's aura becomes melded with the aura of the soul friend and the two souls become uniquely bonded.  It reminds me in many ways of the Twin Soul relationship.

     I think that the late Irish poet John O'Donahue said it best:  "You are joined in an ancient and eternal union with humanity that cuts across all barriers of time, convention, philosophy, and definition.  When you are blessed with an anam cara, the Irish believe that you have arrived at that most sacred place:  home."

A Beautiful Twin Soul Poem

Unending Love

 

I seem to have loved you in numberless forms, numberless times . . .

In life after life, in age after age, forever.

My spellbound heart has made and remade the necklace of songs,

That you take as a gift, wear round your neck in your many forms,

In life after life, in age after age, forever.

 

Whenever I hear old chronicles of love, its age old pain,
Its ancient tale of being apart or together.
As I stare on and on into the past, in the end you emerge,
Clad in the light of a pole-star, piercing the darkness of time.
You become an image of what is remembered forever.

 

You and I have floated here on the stream that brings from the fount.
At the heart of time, love of one for another.
We have played along side millions of lovers,
Shared in the same shy sweetness of meeting,
the distressful tears of farewell,
Old love but in shapes that renew and renew forever.

 

Today it is heaped at your feet, it has found its end in you, 
The love of all man's days both past and forever: 
Universal joy, universal sorrow, universal life, 
The memories of all loves merging with this one love of ours --
And the songs of every poet past and forever.

by Rabindranath Tagore
(1861-1941)
