Help control my empathy

Hey… I've just found out that I'm a empath, and it scares me. I want to learn to control and master this gift, so it doesn't feel like a curse. Please someone teach me to control it. Blessed be.

Personally, I would look into shielding. I see everything in terms of metaphysical energies when it comes to situations like this, and my solution is to focus and create a metaphysical shield around yourself that is meant to block out those specific energies.
If you don't know, shielding is done through a process of either grounding or centering, and then focusing your energy to create a shield around you. Sometimes people will make a general bubble around themselves, or they might create one to act like a second skin. The reason people ground or center beforehand is because it's like building. Building a house without a foundation leaves the building more susceptible to caving in, being torn down, etc.
Good luck in your endeavors!

I agree with DeathLancer. Shielding is a vital technique for anyone who is an empath in order to filter our some of the feelings that you are sensing so they don't overwhelm you. There is some very good information that might help you at http://www.squidoo.com/shielding-techniques-for-empaths

Finding out you are an empath can be very exciting. Good for you. I agree, shielding is the best thing to learn, as you want control of this. So, congrats and learn that shielding! Blessed Be...

Thank you for your advise and it's greatly valued. Blessed be…
