The Psychic Mind
I had a regular, average morning this morning. Coming back home and settling in for a day of work. However, I received an email and immediately started feeling stressed, rushed, and under a deadline. Given that my deadlines are primarily self-imposed, I didn’t actually have anything to be worried about. In fact, I had a calm, relaxing day of work ahead.
I exchanged emails back and forth most of the morning and found myself getting increasingly stressed even though the emails in themselves had no stressing content.
So what was the problem?
Beth Turnage at Astrology Explored recently posted about being psychic and the New Age line of thinking that we are all connected and can sense things based on these connections. While I do not claim to be psychic, I do believe that some people have an increased level of sensitivity when it comes to feeling other people’s feelings.
After I realized that I had no reason to feel rushed or stressed, I calmed myself down enough to help the other person. He apologized and said he was feeling rushed and stressed, going all different directions at once and he had to collect himself.
I smiled and wrote back, “I know how you feel.?
In her post on being psychic, Beth advises that if you find you are psychic or sensitive, you need to set your boundaries. “[Y]ou need to learn to create your boundaries. Unconsciously, you connect with everything, but in doing so you lose your sense of self.?
I agree completely. Learn to identify what is yours and what is not. You should not own other people’s feelings. If you find yourself getting caught up anyway, like I did, you need to learn to identify when feelings are not yours.
Have you ever been caught up in other people’s feelings? Have you ever found yourself confused over why you were feeling certain things about other people?
