If you’re an empath, you’ve probably noticed how people are often drawn to you when they’re feeling down. That’s because you don’t just see and understand their pain—you also have a natural tendency to transfer your own energy to help them heal. In other words, you’re not just offering understanding; you’re giving them the real gift of healing energy. And somehow they can sense that.

But here’s the catch: if you’re not careful, this can drain your own energy. As an empath, you can easily notice the cries for help around you—it’s like you have built-in sensors for it. But that doesn’t mean it’s your responsibility to actively respond to every cry for help you hear.

So, challenge yourself with this mantra: It’s okay to see the pain around me and not respond to it.

It’s ok to see the pain around me and not respond to it.

And don’t worry—you won’t close your heart by thinking this way. You’ll just become a more mature empath and able to protect your energy. It will ground you in your heart’s wisdom, helping you to sense the right moments and people for sharing your healing energy.

So, let me repeat: It’s ok to see the pain around me and not respond to it.
