Empaths are sensitive, intuitive, and caring, but they’re also shock absorbers with an extremely sensitive nervous system, says Dr. Orloff, leaving them susceptible to issues like anxiety, depression, and chronic fatigue. This guidebook helps readers find a balance between giving and self-care, transform their sensitivities into healthy levels of compassion, and use their intuition as an alley. It offers self-assessments to explore common attributes of empaths, daily rituals and meditations to re-center and replenish, and strategies to combat negative energy and create and sustain positive relationships.
