I have been showing signs of an empath and now I am so confused in my life I need help from fellow empaths I have heard reiki can help but I need to learn about reiki I dont know what it is. Please help thank you
There are a lot of sites that talk about Reiki, but you might first want to look into what being an empath actually is, because Reiki is one way some people would try to help. If you are empathic, it's important to not try to 'block the emotions' because that can make you feel isolated and even worse. There are other tools empaths learn to use - and not to 'cope,' as this can be a highly valuable skill that can help you develop very deep connections with others. You will need to learn about your limits though too, ie. avoiding crowds, limiting violent or bleak films and shows, etc. Look into emotional intelligence or EQ as well.
Here is a good intro article on Reiki and the benefits.
Here is a good one on being introverted (Often empaths are highly introverted personalities) and how to deal with the stress and issues that can cause. https://dailylife.com/article/im-an-introvert-how-can-i-deal-with-stress
Reach out if you have more questions about this, it's hard at first, but there are many folks with this talent who have learned to channel it instead of hide from it.
Reiki is the name given to the act of channelling healing spiritual energies. Also called Hands on healing. The teachings of Reiki know many different levels, level one concentrates on opening and closing spiritual channels and how to harvest whatever comes through. Emotions, visions, energies or other things. They help you to come in contact with your spiritual self. As an empath you will need to learn the basics on how to close of channels and when you need it, to reopen certain channels.
If you have any more questions I'll try to anwser them the best I can.
I suggest crawling out of the scifi novel you have your head in and realize you are simply reading other peoples body language and not channeling emotions. And a reiki simply uses the power of the human mind to make the person think they are healed. Its a placebo effect. I suggest that as a self proclaimed empath you simply try to distance yourself from people. Its seriously the only way to avoid pain.
You don't. It's psychologicall unhealthy to block out emotions.
