Empath

[Crystal Shepherd]

Empaths are highly sensitive individuals, who have a keen ability to sense what people around them are thinking and feeling. Psychologists may use the term empath to describe a person that experiences a great deal of empathy, often to the point of taking on the pain of others at their own expense.

This is the official definition of the American Empath Association: An Empath is someone who understands the mental or emotional states of others in a way that defies conventional science and psychology. Empaths have the ability to sense the feelings, thoughts, and energies of people, plants, animals, places, or objects. In addition to [sensing], Empaths [absorb] the energy of those around them. Empaths often experience stress or illness if they are [bombarded] by too many negative emotions. Empaths can also use their abilities to help others by imagining themselves in someone else’s situation and connecting with them on a deep level.

An Empath is a person with a [preternatural] ability to [apprehend] the emotional state of another individual.

When the term Empath is used in online communities, it takes on a new meaning. Essentially it means a person with a preternatural ability to completely misunderstand the mental or emotional state of themselves and others.

A person who has the ability to understand and share in the feelings of another.

When one flips the coin of the title Empath, they come face to face with the darker side of Empathy or that of the [Empathic] Parasite. This type of person utilizes their ability to understand and share in the emotional states of others to manipulate people and situations to bring themselves [front and center]. These same people then begin to sustain themselves on the [emotional energy] of others, often leaving them feeling drained and/or exhausted.

Another definition of Empath is that of the Empathic Guru. The Empathic Guru is someone who believes it is their mission in life to do outreach to others and help guide them on their spiritual path to perfection, enlightenment, or infinite peace. In the doing, they willingly set themselves, their needs and wants, aside and sacrifice themselves for others, because this is where their sense of self and self worth rises out of.
