“Most of you are aware of how your mood or feelings of empathy can shift and change, sometimes without apparent reason. You live in a frequency soup, dear friends, and if you were to try to tune into it all, you would not be able to handle the noise. It would be as if you were surrounded by musical instruments of all different types, playing all different sounds at once!
Many of you feel everything. You feel the love and the hatred. You feel the waves of the world’s shifts in consciousness. You feel your boss’s frustrations, your lover’s fatigue, and your child’s sense of mischief. You feel the peace of nature, the joy of the birds, and the calm that follows a storm. You feel the news stations vying for attention and the people in the store talking loudly and pulling at you to please notice and validate their discussions. How can you handle being such sensitive, open, and empathic souls that you are?
Try something for a moment. Look at the room or space around you. Now shut your eyes and feel. See if you can notice what or who is calling for your attention. As you begin to notice who or what calls for attention, pay attention to how you feel. As you sense a friend that wants you to call, imagine that you can pull your energy into a beautiful column of light from head to toe along your spine, get centered in your own energy, and ask yourself, ‘What do I want to do?’ You get to choose, dear friends, where you place your focus no matter how diligently or insistently someone or something wants your attention.
Once you learn to have more selective focus at the energetic level, your empathic moods can be gifts and blessings. If you don’t know how to tune your energy and focus consciously, however, you can easily feel overwhelmed by the world’s offerings.
Next time you are feeling something or someone unpleasant, think of the taste of your favorite chocolate, the fragrance of your favorite essential oil, the smile of your beloved pet, spouse, or child, the feel of cool grass under your feet, or anything that feels better, and in that instant, as you ‘pick up’ on the signals of something kinder you will stop ‘picking up’ the negative vibrations.
You can learn this. You can practice. And then, you dear, sweet, sensitive, kind and caring, empathic souls, you can be in the world and enjoy your reality no matter what vibrations are around you. You can be with people in upset and fear and share your peace. You can be around complainers while ignoring the negativity and emanating love… for your own sake.
You can be the sensitive souls that you are and enjoy the journey, no longer feeling at the mercy of the external world, no longer having to avoid situations that you want to enjoy, and no longer being dragged down by energies you’d rather not focus on and rather not feel. You can become a tuner extraordinaire, picking up the world’s high vibes and luxuriating most often in the frequencies of love.”
