I recently started writing on Quora and had a very interesting question come up which made me consider the above question - what are your strengths as an empath - in more depth.
What are your strengths as an empath - and how to tune into them?
I believe the first step is to become empowered through your empathic skills. At least 15% of the population are more empathic, possibly due to a combination of nurture and nature.
Empaths and intuitive sensitives have been found to have a higher density of mirror neurons than the ‘average’ population.
If you are empathic you may be able to…
- tune in to other people’s emotions
- read emotional energy or emotional states very easily
- be affected by collective emotional energy unconsciously or consciously.
