Empathy is a scenario where we can embody ourselves with a certain person and feel on our own skin. In this sense, we can say that it is easier to understand this person's emotions, but we should not get too excited because it can affect our emotions as well. Empaths are persons who have a strong emotional sense. In some situations, this can be extremely helpful, but in others it may seem like a burden. Below, we will try to find answers to how to act if you are an empath in different situations.

Empathy consists of:

⦁ Imagination

⦁ Self-consciousness

⦁ Other-awareness

⦁ Feelings and other concepts.

They did not see empathy either; they had to disturb their persons, such as narcissists. Also, determining whether or not one is an empath is not universally valid, as this also depends on the environment and culture in which a particular person lives.

Theorists have there say that inter-subjectivity in empathy is explained by its definite provisions for grounded research. Therefore, we will only summarize the quotation here that defined empathy.

Empathy defined in "Psychology - An Introduction (Ninth Edition) by Charles G. Morris, Prentice Hall, 1996": "Closely related to the ability to read other people's emotions is empathy - the arousal of an emotion in an observer that is a vicarious response to the other person's situation... Empathy depends not only on one's ability to identify someone else's emotions but also on one's capacity to put oneself in the other person's place and to experience an appropriate emotional response. Just as sensitivity to non-verbal cues increases with age, so does empathy. The cognitive and perceptual abilities required for empathy develop only as a child matures. In empathy training, for example, each member of the couple is taught to share inner feelings and to listen to and understand the partner's feelings before responding to them. The empathy technique focuses the couple's attention on feelings and requires that they spend more time listening and less time in rebuttal."

Empathy and affection are closely related concepts. Empath sympathizes with the person you are in contact with and relives feelings that can be positive or negative. This question also raises the question of whether our senses are activated by intersubjectivity (which represents an external stimulus), or whether this is transmitted through the field of vibration or. Of skipping emotions from one point to another? In this phenomenon, one might generally say that there is some resonance of several physical phenomena, such as the interaction of two wavelengths of frequencies. This is very difficult to prove and may in the future be of more interest to future researchers who are particularly interested in this field.

Language makes sharing information much easier than transmitting it only through images, images, sound and other modes. If someone tells you something about themselves and their current state and feelings, this may trigger some emotional reactions in you. However, you create these feelings based on memories from your past, when you felt like this person now, or at least try to understand the person and empathize with them. Of course, we cannot claim that we can feel exactly the same as a person on the other hand, since every living being experiences emotions in its own way. You could say there is an effect where compassion is only about the same.

The first example of empathy is, for example, the response of an infant responding to his mother's facial expressions. At a young age, when we were sitting on school benches, we learned from teachers and parents about the importance of moral conduct. We have also touched on the importance of empathy towards other people. During the process of growing up, people develop their own perceptions of this world, as well as confrontation with empathy.

It may be worth mentioning that it is important for us to be able to accept our emotions and use them as a driver for our behavior, which should always be focused in a positive direction. It is also desirable to be able to express our emotions as well as to receive and understand them. Positive emotions of our own can definitely help us in our creative pursuits. We can also draw inspiration from our emotions.

Some frequent features of empaths:

⦁ They are sensitive;

⦁ External Energy has an essential impact on their well-being;

⦁ Partially introverted;

⦁ Subdued;

⦁ Related to nature;

⦁ High self-awareness;

⦁ Loving people;

⦁ Developed intuitiveness;

⦁ They are sometimes under-appreciated.

We will outline how to control our empathy and extract positive guidance from it below:

⦁ We have developed compassion for other people, but we still take care that their emotions do not affect us too much (not in the negative direction at all);

⦁ Always be aware, be resolute, and execute according to the principle of willpower;

⦁ We are excellent observers from many angles, which gives us significant advantage in decision making;

⦁ We think better and make better decisions because they come from the heart with the help of reason;

⦁ We are calm and with our positive energy we can help ourselves and others;

⦁ Use our energy and channel it into creative creation (Music, art, sports ...);

⦁ Avoid "emotional vampires" as they take away our valuable energy;

⦁ Regularly practice sports and meditation to recharge energy;

⦁ Stay in touch with nature and animals.

We recommend a 15-minute relaxation daily that will release and eliminate blockages that accumulate in you due to daytime stress and coping with various energies:
