Empathy & Feeling People Around You

I experienced this when I was younger, it's become clouded as an adult. When younger, I had to be around the person and make a connection. Once I did, I could 'feel' thoughts. I knew deep secrets they kept and when given the chance would converse with them about what I felt. It was an amazing feeling. I still have it to a degree but not nearly as on the surface as it once was. Life has gotten in the way and I find my mind consumed with idle thoughts and daily responsibilities. I realize that if I can be still again and put things in perspective, it will come back. Retraining my mind is proving to be a long process. But I'll get there.

Feel fortunate, it truly is an amazing ability. Just think how blind you would feel if it wasn't there anymore.

Everyone can do it and everyone does without knowing. It's those that recognize it are the one with the heightened connections. Others are so emotionally charged that the energy becomes overwhelming causing severe irritability with the receiver. We are all connected on an energy or etheric level, using the connections cognitively is much like exercising any other muscle. If you don't workout your muscles they still work but with training you can increase strength, just like everything else.

I think I understand what you're getting at. I am pretty skeptical but I do try to keep an open mind. I actually find this really interesting.

Have you ever had a situation where someone you know has been in trouble, and you've felt their trouble before even seeing or speaking to them? Like, I had a black lab dog which I had to leave behind at my mum's place when I moved far away. Years later, the dog was pretty old, and I was lying down to sleep in my bed when I saw a shadowy black dog leap right at me then disappear. I had this strange feeling like something was amiss, so I called my mum the next day and she informed me that my dog had indeed finally succumbed to old age the night before. I've had a couple of weird experiences like that, do you think it's similar to what you've got going on?

I think the human brain has a lot of untapped power. Talk about "sensing" other to most people and you'll just get laughed at. But I spent some time with Australian Aboriginal people and one of them told me about how they used to communicate over fairly long distances with something kind of like telepathy - it wasn't words being directly implanted into someone's head, but more like, I guess, feelings. That's not the right word but I hope you know what I mean.

And it makes sense evolutionarily. Like how I said before about subconsciously reading body language and how we can use this to learn from the experiences of other people. Being connected to people the way you're describing could be a very useful ability, for example in terms of protecting your friends and family.

Can you do it intentionally? Like can you focus in on a particular person deliberately, just to, I dunno, check up on em?

With me it is interesting because I don't have any stories of just knowing something is wrong, which, it makes me wonder what kind of connection I'm picking up on. The most intense mental experiences I had were those of a sexual nature which is just too graphic for this forum haha. But in truth that's the one thing I don't get. If I focus intensely on someone it does feel like I can connect to them and have a better idea of what is going on with them but sometimes it is hard to put into words.

Most of the time and my experiences just feel like people are around me and that's about all I feel.

How do you work on strengthing those kind of connections?

I leaned a trick on how to retract my "presence" so I could attack closely in service,it 's an alteration of intent in the thought process by emptying the mind.
I scare the snot out of my wife to this day because I do it unconsiously when I think of nothing.

How to be "invisible" - - - meld into the wallpaper.

I like the "lasso" and real in the unexpected.

Hmm?! Describe what you mean by that. I'm intrigued!!

NAW you do THAT with camouflage and movement what I describe elemnates someones "Spider senses" or empathic detection.
In the woods I'm a ghost,no problem,unless thermals are used I own it.
They do make thermal resistant clothing but I'm out now, so I'll never see it.
Scouts tiday are mostly used as infantry instead of long patrols,I think they still train that way though.

Actually, I do it with my mind and energy.

Or, energy turned off.

I like the "lasso" and reel in the unexpected.

Hmm?! Describe what you mean by that. I'm intrigued!!

Which?

I actually misspelled "reel".

I use it in a bar (or social gathering) - - if I want to meet someone.

I send out an energy "lasso". Wrap it around the person, then pull them to me.

An even BETTER discription.

The energy lasso, I understand that intellectually but how did you practice that and cultivate that skill?

Don't know.

Just born that way.

I know what you are talking about, you dont find many people with whom you create such bonds, but when you do, oh boy, its quite intense, my explanation for it, has to do with past lives, I think somehow you crossed paths with these people and it becomes karmatic in some way. The energy you feel, they feel like you do, its an amazing feeling, like both of you, are inside a jar of honey.

Yes which would make sense why it only happens with certain people. Haha a jar of honey, that is a good way to describe it.
