Just 3 Kinds of Empath Teachers
Do You Know What’s What?
Empath Teachers take different approaches to solving problems. Three approaches are most popular. Read this article and discover the upsides and downsides of each.
Also, at the end of this article, see a couple of contrasting aura photo taken the same day. Now let’s get to it.
All Professional Empath Teachers Aim to Solve Problems
Only they don’t even agree on which problems to solve. Or: What is an empath? Yowza!
If you’re baffled by all the empath teachings out there, hey! I can relate.
For instance, by October 2020, Amazon.com sells over 4,000 books under the category “Empaths.” But you can group these titles into just three categories. Let’s explore them one by one.
Psychic Development Approaches
Of course, this approach fits in beautifully with other forms of psychic development. These teachers of empaths often call themselves “intuitives” or “psychics.” Alternatively, they may claim expertise at helping empaths due to shamanic training.
Most noteworthy, you may be encouraged to work with spirits or “energies.”
Of course, many people who are spiritual but not religious can feel more comfortable working with angels and spirits than with God. And, conveniently, listening to the “messengers of God” can seem superior to taking responsibility for ordinary human problems.
Definitely, if you choose a psychic for your empath teacher, you’ll be encouraged to think of your empathic sensitivity as something to cultivate through psychic development.
Which Problem Do these Empath Experts Try to Solve?
Being energy sensitive and not knowing what to do with it! So much to feel! Discovering a limitless opportunity to interpret other people in terms of their bad energies!
Granted, from an Energy Spirituality perspective, guess what? Everybody living now is living in the Age of Awakening. Ever since the Shift on 12/21/12, everybody who wishes to be energy sensitive… IS energy sensitive.
Therefore, some of you more sophisticated readers may have flagged a… huge problem with trying to solve this “problem.” Where being energy sensitive (supposedly) qualifies people to call themselves empaths.
Why a problem? Because being energy sensitive actually doesn’t make a person an empath.
My consumer tip, helping you to sort through the claims made by psychics who teach empaths:
Read over their websites or books. And try substituting the term “energy sensitive” for “empath.” You may be shocked to see how these “Empath Teachers” are writing for a much larger group of people. Moreover, people who technically aren’t empaths at all.
Benefits of this Approach
Studying with the likes of Cyndi Dale? Of course, you’ll feel special. Also, you’ll be steered toward flashy experiences that make you feel even more special.
If you grow used to studying with this category of teacher, it can feel like you’ve joined one large-and-happy family… so many intuitives who promise to help you to become a “Happy Empath.”
Every day there’s more to experience, more to discuss, more to strive for. Above all, exciting stories of people’s other-worldly, flashy experiences.
Drawbacks (What Could Hurt You)
Logically, how helpful can it be to learn about productive living as an empath… From an Empath Teacher who mostly is living as an energy? Even before the Age of Awakening, many psychics were doing this. Now, this way of living propels most psychics into a troubling consciousness lifestyle — either spiritual addiction or extreme spiritual addiction.
For examples, check out names of psychics and teachers of empaths here. Soon you’ll be reading about that teacher’s consciousness lifestyle. Oboy!
Psychological and Medical Approaches
Psychologists and life coaches; psychiatrists and other doctors; over the decades, these experts have become influential teachers to empaths.
Given their mental health background, it’s natural for them to provide sympathy, giving empaths ample opportunities to explore their pain. Solutions offered can highlight avoiding “energy vampires” and narcissists. In addition, there will be other tips and tricks to help one manage one’s sensitivity, a bit like managing a disability.
Which Problem Do these Empath Experts Try to Solve?
“Overwhelm.” Hey, this idea was birthed by Elaine Aron, Ph.D. in her groundbreaking books for HSPs.
The Highly Sensitive Person: How to Thrive When the World Overwhelms You
Ever since, experts at psychology have interpreted empath’s sensitivity as if it were a mental health prob. Sometimes Empath Teachers of this kind have credentials. Others simply graduated from the School of Oprah. ;-)
Either way, you’ll find a great deal of psychological lingo in their approaches.
Benefits of this Approach
Under the care of a psychologist (or somebody who talks like one), you may feel like you’re in safe hands. After all, isn’t working on yourself psychologically considered the gold standard today, in Collective Consciousness? Haven’t you heard that “working on your issues” is the best way to progress in life?
Empaths can benefit by:
- Feeling understood
- Being provided with sympathetic company
- And maybe enjoying free support groups
- As they’re all engaged in a “one day at a time” kind of struggle to overcome their suffering.
As for the approach itself, this form of Empath Teaching often involves analyzing problems. Which problems? IMO, precisely those problems that come from being an unskilled empath. Oops!
Think about that logically for a moment. How could this approach possibly make somebody into a Skilled Empath? It can’t.
Only now the empath has a meaningful hobby. Doing boundary work. Or seeking protection from vampires, narcissists, etc. Meanwhile, the hardworking empath is still doing countless Unskilled Empath Merges each day. Bringing Imported STUFF splat! Right into that empath’s aura.
Drawbacks (What Could Hurt You)
Apart from all that Imported STUFF, just mentioned…. As with any psychological work, a distinct possibility is taking the psychological bypass. Or even moving into the consciousness lifestyle of psychological overwork.
If you know better, what else might you consider a drawback? Never becoming a skilled empath. Only a skilled blamer!
Consciousness Approaches
All human beings have consciousness. But do all of us know how to purposely use our consciousness in order to make life better? Not really. Of course, meditation is the most famous way to use consciousness. However, meditation techniques are not designed with empaths in mind. Besides, meditation may not work terribly well any more, now that we’re in the Age of Awakening.
By contrast, an effective consciousness approach expressly designed for helping empaths? That can make something big happen. (Or not happen, depending on which way you think about it.) Unskilled empath merges stop happening. No more Imported STUFF hangs around in your aura.
Also, Skilled Empaths have the option of learning how to do Skilled Empath Merge. AKA, “The biggest fun you can have with your clothes on.”
Which Problem Do these Empath Experts Try to Solve? Whoaaaaaaa!
To be clear, so far I don’t know of anybody teaching a Consciousness Approach other than my system of Empath Empowerment®… Do you know of any? If so, let me know.
Of course, a huge number of teachers have copied the trademarked name of my system. Lookee here! But that doesn’t mean they’re teaching a system based in using consciousness to empower the empath.
All that said, given today’s huge marketplace involving Empath Teachers… Let’s re-state the former question…
Which Problem Does Empath Expert Rose Rosetree… Try to Solve?
To this Empath Coach, what is an empath? A person who has at least one lifelong gift as an empath. Namely, a gift for directly experiencing what it’s like to be another person.
Without skills to balance that talent, an empath is off and running… in consciousness. Doing Unskilled Empath Merges all day long. Getting Imported STUFF stuck in their auras. All of which cause problems aplenty.
So my main job involves teaching empaths to effortlessly stop doing those Unskilled Empath Merges.
Benefits of this Approach
Using consciousness to become a Skilled Empath takes only a small amount of time. Essentially, it’s a knack, like learning how to ride a bike. Once you’ve developed that skill, maintenance takes only two minutes a day.
Drawbacks (What Could Hurt You)
The approach is so simple! Amazingly easy to learn, actually. Like using the how-to “Empath Empowerment in 30 Days.” It’s a deceptively easy read. Where all you do is read one short chapter daily and do up to 10 minutes of homework.
Incidentally, this just might be the only book you need to become a Skilled Empath.
What have I observed by way of drawbacks, since teaching Empath Empowerment over the past 20 years? Some students get bored. After learning, and receiving benefits, they’re tempted by the Empath Teaching equivalent of shiny objects.
- Psychic approaches tempt them with astral flash.
- Psychological approaches lure them with the social clout of experts at pop psych. Plus the thrill of blaming.
- Or else, maybe, some of those newly Skilled Empaths can’t stand the prospect of being thought leaders. My approach isn’t popular enough for them. So they switch over to whatever’s more mainstream right now.
Related to this, what’s the biggest drawback to studying with me? What happens if empaths start playing mix-n-match, adding helpful hints etc. from other Empath Teachers. Sadly, those experimenters don’t achieve something better. Not at all. Sadly, their Empath Empowerment will vanish — whether these enthusiastic empaths know it or not.
BTW, What Gives Me the Standing to Categorize these Approaches?
Simply put, I’m America’s most experienced empath coach, having trademarked America’s first system to help empaths, Empath Empowerment®:
- For instance, I published America’s first book for empaths. (Translated into authorized editions in Spanish, Japanese, Russian, and Turkish).
- Also, I’ve published the only book that explains how to do Skilled Empath Merge.
- Altogether, I offer a series of four Empath Empowerment Books. Again, most recommended for beginners is “Empath Empowerment in 30 Days.”
- And I’ve also made available some Empath Empowerment Online Workshops.
- Finally, empaths can come to me for Empath Empowerment COACHING Sessions of Energy Spirituality.
One way or another, I’ve got loads of resources to help any-and-every empath.
One Question
If you search on “Skilled Empath Merge” (like with the link just supplied), how fascinating! Where have all those other Empath Teachers gone? Why aren’t they also publicly doing Skilled Empath Merges? Your thoughts, please.
Seems to me, the demonstrated ability to do Skilled Empath Merges ought to be a job requirement for this line of work.
And Now for those Promised Aura Photos
Finally, in case you’re curious:
You see, auras change a lot. Just holding a crystal can temporarily change your aura. However, that change between just holding a piece of malachite and versus doing a Skilled Empath Merge with it?
Worth considering, isn’t it!
