Your life is unconsciously influenced by the desires, thoughts, moods, and even pain of others. Being an empath is much more than being highly sensitive and is not just limited to emotions or physical pain. Empaths can also perceive the motivations and intentions of the people around them. Being an empath, you are always open, so to speak, to elaborate the feelings and energy of other people.
