@secretwhitepop, Bubbles
Are you am empath? Do you know how others are feeling without them telling you?
I am asking cuz a friend of mine is an empath. Even though she knows better, she had a lot of drama going on with her family this weekend and she took on some of those challenges of others and took them into herself.
I am also an empath. I used to go to meetings with other survivors and listen to their stories and go home feeling like crap.
So...I developed a shield. It drops in a snap of the fingers. It is like a curved glass shield. Plenty of openings for air to enter but other peoples stuff is reflected back to them.
Try it next time you go to help mom. See if you feel different after.
The more clearly you can see the shield, the better it works.
Why not try drawing it or painting it so it will be a solid form in your mind.
Best of luck...sage mom's place too. You have no idea how many restless spirits there are...
Bright Wings,

I am realizing more and more that I am an empath. Funny, when I was little, mom used to say that I would start to cry if the kid next to me got in trouble! So I guess I’ve been an empath for a long time. And I do feel physical pain of others. Right now as I sit at work, I know mom is home and alone. Ugh!

Shield time!

You offer very good advice!
