Sample Book Insights: #1 There is a spectrum of sensitivity that exists in human beings, but empaths are those who absorb both the stress and joy of the world. They feel everything, and have little guard up between themselves and others. #2 Empaths have an extremely reactive neurological system. We don’t have the same filters that other people do to block out stimulation. As a result, we absorb both the positive and stressful energies around us. #3 Empaths are sensitive people who feel what others are feeling. They often feel anxious and tired in crowds, and they want to escape. They turn to drugs to block their intuition and empathic abilities. #4 Empaths share some or all of the traits of what psychologist Elaine Aron calls Highly Sensitive People, or HSPs. These traits include a low threshold for stimulation, the need for alone time, sensitivity to light, sound, and smell, and an aversion to large groups.
