Empaths and Others, More Protection against Gray Slime

Here come more suggestions to keep your aura clear. If you’re an empath, these ideas will also help empower yourself as an empath, given that common affliction today…

More common than Swine Flu…

More common than home foreclosures, unemployment, divorce, etc., etc., etc.

More powerful than a speeding locomotive — okay, that part is a joke

Yes, I’m continuing our conversation about Gray Slime.

Gray Slime does get into auras

“Gray Slime” is my name for a strong tendency in collective consciousness on earth right now. It’s a tendency to feel hopeless, helpless, as if life is a terrible struggle where each of us is doomed.

Many people are buying into this. The way to tell is Aura Reading Research. In my experience, it shows how many people are temporarily getting this Gray Slime into their auras, deposited like a grimy film that distorts the experience of life.

It isn’t contagious, however, unless you let it be.

Grey Slime doesn’t get in because of psychic attack. Or energy vampires. Nope, responsibility rests squarely on the shoulders (and aura) of each individual.

Please avoid dunking yourself in negativity as if you were a donut and the gray swill of fear were a tasty brew. You know what it feels like to go there. When you notice the choice, just say “No.” For example:

• If friends get into long conversations about all that is wrong, or blaming, cut those conversations short.
• Hold up a tiny candle by expressing a bit, just a bit, of your truth, e.g. “Personally, I don’t believe things are as bad as you say.” or “Interesting opinions. Mine is different.”

But what about psychic attack and energy vampires?

So long as concepts like these bring you comfort, by all means, use them. Another new concept being presented now — a version of victimology with special appeal to empaths – called “emotional blackmail.”

Keep in mind that unskilled empaths are talented but have great vulnerability. This isn’t a lifelong problem, some hideous cross to bear. No, the vulnerability is a problem related simply to having talent as an empath but not yet having skill.

The vulnerability of an unskilled empath is that you pick up STUFF belonging to other people. Mostly it happens without your conscious knowledge or consent. Yet this is your responsibility and your problem.

Calling the people whose STUFF you take on “energy vampires” or blaming it on “psychic attack” or “emotional blackmail” does nothing whatsoever to help you take back your power.

For that, become a Skilled Empath. One way to do that is to use my new how-to book, Become the Most Important Person in the Room: Your 30-Day Plan for Empath Empowerment.

Reading one short chapter a day, plus doing 10 minutes of homework, will get you there in one month. (Or a bit more, with February coming up so soon.) Otherwise, while so many people are dealing with Gray Slime, it’s easy to pick it up from them when you’re an unskilled empath.

Media dumps of Gray Slime

Don’t get me wrong. I love the media, especially when being interviewed by them. Last weekend, Dayna Winters hosted an interview about Empath Empowerment which you can access via this Empath Empowerment Interview Link.

TV, movies, radio, newspapers — they can open up your world and connect you to inspiration. Except when they don’t.

That’s why I recommend you become very, very careful about your exposure to media, particularly the news. Never, ever watch or listen to news within 45 minutes of waking up or going to bed. You are at your most impressionable. The last thing you need is Gray Slime.

At other times during your day, I believe the best way to learn news is from a trusted newspaper, where you can skip around, avoiding both horrible photos and stories about “if it bleeds, it leads.”

If you’re listening to radio, that can give you intelligent perspective, but be sure you are ready to turn that thing off when/if it turns into a collective mourning or whining or fear mongering.

The big problem with TV news is that the clips and images can come by faster than your coordination with the clicker or mouse. Instantly, you can receive imprinting of images that, guaranteed, will pollute your subconscious mind for the rest of your life. And maybe beyond. (This concept some of you Blog-Buddies might recognize as Frozen Blocks of Energy that I facilitate releasing permanently with Energy Release Regression Therapy.)

Your responsibility to participate in tragedy

The recent disaster in Haiti is a useful example for those who wish to avoid Gray Slime. Is it important to know what happened, as a responsible citizen of the world? Sure.

Is it kind to donate money or volunteer to help in some way? Absolutely.

Otherwise, will it help anyone at all for you to participate in news reports, watch photos of weeping, etc?

Absolutely not.

To witness tragedy does NOT help the people involve. Doing unskilled empath merges helps nobody. Yes, you might think that taking on STUFF from other people helps them. But think again.

In our next blog post I’m going to share what I’ve discovered about STUFF and healing and volunteer work. Those of you Blog-Buddies who do Reiki or EFT, pay special attention.
