According to Psychology Today, empathy is the “experience” of another person’s thoughts and feelings from his or her point of view, rather than from one’s own. The problem is when we have difficulty knowing where ours and others’ thoughts and feelings start and end. Workshop participants will learn what healthy and unhealthy empathy is and how empathy complicates or enhances relationships and mediumship. Through thought-provoking discussion and activities, participants will learn to use their five senses, God-given talents, and mediumship to shift their empathy to a balanced use of empathy. Strategies from Judith Orloff, M.D., Dion Fortune, and Lisa Williams and other resources will be discussed. Participants will learn to distinguish the line between interdependent and codependence as well as empathy and sympathy. The workshop will bring together psychological, spiritual, and mind/body perspectives. All participants will develop an empathy management plan.
