Have you ever picked up on someone else’s emotion? Like they get afraid, and you start thinking, “Oh no. Did I upset them? And now what are they thinking of me?” Now the fear spreads to you.
If you sense someone else believes YOU are feeling a certain way, you can even start to feel that. Someone else thinks you should be scared in your situation, so then you start feeling scared when you weren’t before.
Sensitive people, empathic healer types get dragged down all the time because they feel an emotional connection or energy cord to other individuals.
Despite how POWERFUL you are, you can get bogged down by other people’s feelings.
It can become a whole vicious cycle, affecting you even when you are not even realizing it. Especially when people are very upset and triggered.
It’s the middle of the pandemic, and in the USA often I can feel the tension in the air, a sense of alertness, or being an edge. People are a hair away from being triggered, and a small thing can easily become a big emotional situation.
So if you don’t want to feel small or scared, what do you do to step out of that fear and scarcity mode?
