Meditation for the empathic mind

The wanders of meditation of the empathic mind 

This week I ran my first meditation group. 

It was attended by a group of like-minded, wonderful women, with a magnetic energy. Together we created a safe space to come together, share each other's energies and just be in the moment and be together. It's very powerful. 

I have been thinking so much about empaths, sensitive souls and light workers over the last few weeks as I develop a new programme aimed at this amazing group of people. 

Growing up I was always told I was sensitive; I feel things deeply. I remember there was a boy at school everyone called eczema boy, I remember befriending him and I always used to tie his shoelaces for him.

Being an empath is a delight and without the ability to use it wisely can be a curse. An empath can be easily hurt, easily manipulated, easily drawn in by the narcissist. 

There is so much I have learnt over the years, but it is only in the latter years I have reached peace with who I am and rejoice in it. I have added many tools to my box to help me manage both mental and physical health and mediation is something I will always use. 

It helps me calm and quieten a very active mind. Over time my mind has become quieter always not just in times of meditation. 

I feel compassion and love for others but now also myself. Meditation has helped me reach that wonderful place in my mind.

Meditation is a skill, it doesn't come easily, but let me assure you it is worth persevering with. For the empathic sensitive mind, it is learning to be at one with yourself, and the universe and begin your journey to find inner peace and joy.
