“Feeling emotional, misunderstood and probably exhausted?”

You could be clairsentient; little understood clairsentience, is the ability to feel the emotions of other people.  Whilst not to be confused with empathy but to some degree both Empathic and Clairsentient beings have the ability to become a vehicle or dumping ground for unwanted emotions belonging to other people.  This cannot be dealt with by any of the normal methods of healing, which is why highly sensitive, empathic and Clairsentient beings often become depressed at their apparent inability to function like others.

This can be particularly debilitating for people unaware of their ability and finding themselves in families and/or relationships with people who unconsciously drain their energy.

To establish the likelihood of you being Highly Empathic/Clairsentient, you might like to ask yourself how many of the following apply to you.  Prior to doing this it is worthwhile remembering that Clairsentience is a gift but unrecognized it is more likely to feel like a curse.  The abilities of clairvoyance and clairaudience, to see and hear, are readily known.  However, to feel, as in Clairsentience, requires recognition, acceptance and it takes commitment to learn the skills to manage the energy.

As with all gifts the levels of skill will vary from one person to another, probably better understood in this case as your degree of sensitivity.

• Can you feel stressed and overwhelmed and find time ALONE helps you feel calmer?
• Do crowded noisy places leave you feeling exhausted?
• Can you feel tired on waking even after many hours of sleep?
• Do you notice others feel better having been with you or having spoken to you?
• Do you regularly have good or bad days in the sense of how you look and feel?
• Can you age noticeably from one day to the next, actually looking less attractive or vital?
• Do you suffer from physical sensitivities, unexplained aches and pains  (particularly stomach disorders, eye problems, migraines, or sinus troubles?
• Additionally, psychological issues can include loss of personal identity, depression, inability to focus clearly and difficulty in retaining emotional stability.
• Do you feel different and have some sense of not belonging in your family or environment?
• You may have trouble remembering facts but be creative and imaginative.  You may also, given the opportunity, enjoy nature, walking, water or dancing.
• In relationships do you find yourself with “emotionally unavailable” partners, probably ending up with the emotional work for two?

PATHWAYS TO UNDERSTANDING the degrees of Clairsentience and Empathy

The first 12 bullet points on this sheet relate to one particular type of being…You can resonate with the questions above but not necessarily with this specific sheet.

The last two points are different and you do not need to be highly sensitive to experience either however highly sensitive beings are very prone to energy hosting and suffer great difficulty in facing confrontational situations, which is an indicator of the immobility response.

You will recognize most of the symptoms listed in the above list.

• This “feeling” of being different will probably have been with you from early childhood-you may also have been able to see and hear in a way others could not.
• If you were misunderstood as a child you are likely to have been told that you “shouldn’t” feel that way.

• You may have been a target/blamed or made to feel responsible for other people’s problems, including authority figures, primary caregivers, teachers or siblings.
• In adolescence this could progress to friends, work colleagues or partners.
• A continuing pattern of “others” not understanding and or saying there must be something wrong with you because they do not “feel” that way.
• A pattern of trying to “conform” or understand why you felt that way will have caused physical and emotional distress.
• Not knowing how you know but “knowing” anyway, things others do not seem to know or understand.
• Feeling guilty and responsible for other people’s happiness.
• Choosing to stay in situations for the sake of “others” even at your own detriment.  These decisions will be taken primarily for emotional rather than financial reasons.
• Always giving others the benefit of the doubt whilst failing to see your own “goodness.”
• Having an inner knowing that you are the “stronger” person even though you are accused of being over sensitive, emotional, irrational and imagining things that do not exist.

• If earlier difficulties existed you may have a deep fear of confrontational situations.  You will have probably unconsciously developed some level of coping strategies to avoid these but having to face a situation can cause great anxiety.  This will be at a level of feeling very vulnerable and helpless, whilst manifesting physical symptoms of heart palpitations, nausea, frozen fear; this will be followed by a period of time trying to calm yourself while pent-up energy rushes through you body.  This may seem to others an inappropriate or exaggerated response to what appears a fairly ordinary exchange or minor problem.
• You may serve as a “host” to another person(s); whilst supplying their “being” with energy will make you feel and appear the weaker person, the other person(s) strength can depend on you as an energy source.  You may not recognize this yourself, however, erratic and depleted energy is a symptom.
