Empaths: I know you’re weary


Being an Empath is a difficult thing. It’s tiring. Sometimes you feel like you’re on the same path you were when you first began your journey: Retreading the same old grounds. Sometimes it seems that no matter how much you do, no matter how much you try and no matter how much you strive to…

Empath series: Beware of the holiday depression or Merry Christmas.


It’s almost Christmas time. Generally, it’s the period where people are happier and even the more hard-nosed of people tend to mellow out. Families gather, gifts are exchanged and we all eat way too much food. Generally. It’s also a time of great loneliness for many. There are so many out there who feel lost…

Empath Series: Death or Why? – Part 2


I've covered this subject before, but there are people, who from time to time, find this article and have told me they've found it useful. I thought I’d post what I've previously written here for those who have not read it yet. This is a channeled conversation with the answers indented in italics.  This channel continues…

Bach Flower Remedies: Hornbeam or maybe I should put this off till tomorrow.


It’s another day. Another week. Yet another month. You wake up. Everything feels the same as it did the day before. Nothing has changed. How long does this go on? I’m sure most people can relate to this. Some call it Mondayitis. Others call it fatigue. I call it weariness. It’s when you’ve done the…

Empath series: More on psychic burnout or how many hats do I have here?


One of the things that contribute to psychic burn out are the requests for help that I get on a pretty regular basis. For instance, I get frequent requests for help by e-mail. I would say, they would come at the rate of around four to six a month, and while not very many in…

Empath Series: Psychic burnout or I’m too exhausted to think of anything witty to write here.


I took some well-earned vacation this month. (Hence the lack of blogs.) As usual, I find that I tend to collapse into a heap, and while the body is willing, the spirit is not. In this state, even thinking is an effort and answering questions is difficult. It’s even hard to read anything longer than…

Empath Series – Bach flower remedy: Elm – The remedy for being overwhelmed or I dropped the eggs.


One of the complaints from Empaths that I hear a lot is that they often feel overwhelmed by too many feelings and emotions. So much so, it drives them nuts. It is a very real problem, and causes all kinds of issues, including psychic burnout. You might liken it to one of those old egg…

Empath Series – Psychic attacks – Serendipity or cutting the mustard.


As I've mentioned, I've spent much of my life under attack. There have been various reasons, which I won't get into here, but most I have overcome, especially once I've tracked the source. But for whatever reason, I've been under pretty strong attacks from 2009 to 2013. My internet circle has a good deal of…

Empath Series – Psychic attacks – Signs of my own attack or I really should consider another gig.


Psychic attacks: Attacks by either people, or entities. Do they really exist? For those who haven’t actually experienced them, I would not blame you for thinking that I've been watching too many horror movies. (I actually don’t enjoy watching them so I don’t.) But until you've been under one, and then identified it as such,…

Empath Series – Psychic attacks. Hitchhikers or I don’t recall inviting you in.


Back in 1999, I was with my then wife and  her 12 year old daughter in our kitchen when I noticed something small and black flash in the air about a foot from my stomach. I only caught a glimpse of it and it was gone. It wasn’t a fly or any kind of flying…

Healing Depression Series: Bach Flower Remedies (BFR) – Are they a placebo? part 5 or if I fooled myself, I did a great job.


Are they a placebo? Part 5 As I have mentioned, I had suffered from depression for most of my life. While I had overcome most types, I had reached a point where Clinical Depression was slowly destroying me, and my life. Every little thing, no matter how small, or imagined, would send me spiralling into…
