- 0:00Speaker 1: Welcome to Empower your Soul Podcast.
- 0:02Speaker 1: I'm Nicole, your host, and I am excited because this is my first like spiritual download podcast that Spirit wants me to do and, honestly, I wasn't even planning on recording this today, but they kept poking at me again and so here I am and I'm just going to do this Spirit-led podcast for all of you, and this is going to be targeted towards empaths today.
- 0:25Speaker 1: So those of you that feel energy and it impacts you, and maybe you know and maybe you don't know, but anyone that has a mood that can change rather quickly.
- 0:40Speaker 1: I'm in New England.
- 0:42Speaker 1: I'm going to say it's going to be like the weather, right, it's when your mood changes very quickly.
- 0:46Speaker 1: You wake up great.
- 0:47Speaker 1: By the end of the day, you're horrible and you're not really sure and you can't pinpoint anything that particularly happened that caused your mood to change or for your day to turn south.
- 0:57Speaker 1: That is probably your biggest indicator that you're an empath and what an empath means.
- 1:03Speaker 1: For those of you that are unaware that you're an empath, and what an empath means for those of you that are unaware, it is someone who picks up on the energy and vibrations of others and you take it on as if it is your own emotion.
- 1:16Speaker 1: So it's not just recognizing it, because I think recognizing the emotions and the feelings of others is more EQ and that's you are able to determine how someone else feels, what's going on in their energy field.
- 1:26Speaker 1: How are they doing today?
- 1:28Speaker 1: Are they happy, are they sad, are they having a good day or a bad day, and sympathize with that.
- 1:32Speaker 1: But you keep your emotions and they keep their emotions.
- 1:35Speaker 1: And empath is the next step, where you actually take on the emotions or the physical feelings of others.
- 1:44Speaker 1: So this can look like, as I said, emotions or it could be like physical responses as well.
- 1:52Speaker 1: So an example is me watching a video on TikTok about somebody who has a busted knee.
- 1:59Speaker 1: Or I'm watching a video where they hurt their knee in the video and I actually feel that knee hurt here in as I'm watching the video in my own body.
- 2:08Speaker 1: So that's what I mean when you're an empath, so I can show up as emotions as well.
- 2:12Speaker 1: It's also like physical things and isn't that freaking wild, isn't that?
- 2:16Speaker 1: Think about that, isn't that wild?
- 2:18Speaker 1: And it just means that you are just energetically very sensitive.
- 2:23Speaker 1: There's nothing wrong with you.
- 2:25Speaker 1: You are just more in tune with being able to understand and intake energy, and the problem is knowing whether it's your energy that's driving some of your feelings and physical symptoms or if it's somebody else that's causing those.
- 2:44Speaker 1: So I wanted to spin this topic a little bit, because it is done quite a bit, and I want to talk about how social media can impact your energy as an empath, and my guides like downloaded this information for me this morning, so I'm so happy to share it with all of you.
- 3:03Speaker 1: Because if you are somebody who is scrolling through social media nonstop like this is how I spend my wind down time.
- 3:13Speaker 1: I used to watch TV, can't stand TV anymore, so now I just watch people on social media probably should go back to TV.
- 3:20Speaker 1: It's probably a better energy vibration.
- 3:22Speaker 1: But if you're scrolling through that number one I'm sure you already recognize you don't necessarily feel good afterwards.
- 3:31Speaker 1: You don't feel productive, you don't feel happy, you don't feel like your best self usually after you scroll through social media.
- 3:41Speaker 1: But I want to talk about why Because no one's talking about this and why empaths feel that way, and I'm sure some of you who are quick on the uptake know exactly where I'm going with this.
- 3:56Speaker 1: We feel that way because as we watch people in videos.
- 4:01Speaker 1: We absorb the energy that they're putting out in their videos.
- 4:07Speaker 1: So think about it.
- 4:08Speaker 1: So, if you're scrolling through and you're watching these gung-ho amazing women that are business leaders and this is maybe somebody who promotes marketing for small business and they want to teach you how to market, like their energy is going to be really good and you're going to feel probably okay because their vibration might be okay.
- 4:26Speaker 1: If you're scrolling through and you're watching sad videos or you're watching people talk about how their family died or you're talking you're watching, you know, kids that are having bad days or talking about bullies, you're going to absorb that energy that they're putting out while they're making this video and, yes, so that energy persists.
- 4:47Speaker 1: So, even though they may have recorded it, I'm going to say, two weeks ago and they're in a totally different mental state, energetic state right now, you queuing in to that video today is are going to tap into the energy of what it was like when they recorded that video.
- 5:07Speaker 1: That energy stays in that video and it continues to go out over and over and over again and I feel like this is where poltergeists come from, and I don't know why.
- 5:19Speaker 1: I want to say that, because the word poltergeist just popped into my head.
- 5:23Speaker 1: But this is where these ideas of negative entities come from.
- 5:28Speaker 1: Is this negative thing over and over again?
- 5:30Speaker 1: Oh my God, could you even imagine?
- 5:31Speaker 1: We just went down the rabbit hole right now?
- 5:33Speaker 1: Could you even imagine how many like negative I'm going to say like energies are going to be created from social media.
- 5:42Speaker 1: By putting that energy out there and it constantly plays over and over again for eternity, I'm just boom, spirit, mic, drop.
- 5:51Speaker 1: So that's why it's so important to know what you're getting into when you tap into social media as an empath, because you are literally absorbing the energies of the content creators and their videos.
- 6:11Speaker 1: Yeah, so Spirit's telling me.
- 6:18Speaker 1: I'm going to do three different scenarios on how this might impact you, and a very real example that I want to start with is me working in this business.
- 6:28Speaker 1: Right, so I follow a lot of business leaders or people who are hustling the shit out of life, trying to get their career, their business, their off the ground, attracting the right clients.
- 6:43Speaker 1: This kind of stuff.
- 6:44Speaker 1: I follow this stuff.
- 6:44Speaker 1: It interests me.
- 6:45Speaker 1: I have the business background.
- 6:46Speaker 1: I wouldn't surprise you.
- 6:47Speaker 1: Clients, this kind of stuff.
- 6:48Speaker 1: I follow the stuff.
- 6:48Speaker 1: It interests me.
- 6:49Speaker 1: I have the business background.
- 6:49Speaker 1: I wouldn't surprise you.
- 6:54Speaker 1: But what I end up doing while I follow them is I'm absorbing their energy and think about it.
- 6:56Speaker 1: If they are hustling and they're trying to sell products or get new clients, what energy are they putting out there in their videos?
- 7:05Speaker 1: They might be, and I'm going to hint.
- 7:06Speaker 1: Are they putting out there in their videos?
- 7:07Speaker 1: They might be, and I'm going to hint.
- 7:09Speaker 1: I'm going to.
- 7:09Speaker 1: Here's the hint.
- 7:14Speaker 1: They might be saying one thing, but they feel another.
- 7:15Speaker 1: Their energy says something else.
- 7:16Speaker 1: So on the surface it looks like this super fun, informative video that I can, you know, take this tool, this idea, and and incorporate it into my business so that maybe I can increase my business, increase my clientele, that kind of thing.
- 7:34Speaker 1: But the energy that they're putting out when they make that video is like I'm pausing because I don't want to use the word desperation it's not desperation, it's a functioning.
- 7:45Speaker 1: The energy they're putting out is a function of lack, right?
- 7:48Speaker 1: So it's like the law of attraction kind of stuff where you attract what you put out there.
- 7:54Speaker 1: So if you're saying I am abundant, you're going to bring abundance in.
- 7:57Speaker 1: But the people that are putting a lot of these videos out on social media, that are business owners or business leaders are putting out videos because they lack and they want more.
- 8:07Speaker 1: So they are lacking clients, they're lacking money, and so they are putting that energy out into the universe through social media.
- 8:17Speaker 1: And when they put that video out there, you are absorbing that energy, right?
- 8:22Speaker 1: So don't follow salespeople, is what I hear it say, because the energy is desperation and you incorporate that desperation and then I'm just going to be totally 100% blunt and honest with all of you.
- 8:38Speaker 1: When I watch them on social media, I immediately need to go do things for my business, and I'm often functioning in a space of short term, not coming from strategy, not thinking is this aligned to my business?
- 8:51Speaker 1: It's more like, oh shit, I need to go do something.
- 8:54Speaker 1: Because now I'm in that energy of desperation, so I go and make a fucking class on a Wednesday night, so that and it's going to be a pop up class, right, like this is what I'm talking about like, oh my God, I need, I need more money, I need more clients.
- 9:10Speaker 1: Let me just put this thing out there and I'll see if it sticks.
- 9:11Speaker 1: And ultimately it's not going to stick because I'm not making a conscious, aligned decision to help my business in the way that is best suited for me and my energy.
- 9:21Speaker 1: I am making a desperate decision based on somebody else's energy and naturally that is not going to be in alignment with my business.
- 9:34Speaker 1: So that's an example.
- 9:35Speaker 1: Spirit is like hitting me across the head with um about how I utilize social media and it's the wrong place to get inspiration from.
- 9:40Speaker 1: Likewise, I'm going to say if you are, let me see if they can pull in a second example for me.
- 9:49Speaker 1: They said there were going to be three pets.
- 9:50Speaker 1: Let's talk about pets.
- 9:51Speaker 1: I don't know why I see a dog in my head.
- 9:53Speaker 1: So let's talk about pets.
- 9:53Speaker 1: I don't know where this is going to go.
- 9:55Speaker 1: I never know.
- 9:56Speaker 1: I think this is my favorite part about this podcast.
- 9:58Speaker 1: It's like part channeling I would say it's 75% channeling the information from spirit.
- 10:03Speaker 1: So it so in terms of animals.
- 10:11Speaker 1: So let's say that you love watching animals.
- 10:12Speaker 1: Like lately, I've been watching a lot of hey, buddy, you're adopted, you're adopted videos for pets and spirits actually telling me these are great, these are great videos, the ones that I've been watching.
- 10:19Speaker 1: So the ones I've been watching have been someone that works at an animal shelter going up to a dog that is being adopted and saying hey, buddy, you've been picked.
- 10:30Speaker 1: You've been picked and you watch the emotional.
- 10:32Speaker 1: I know it's such it's.
- 10:33Speaker 1: So are you tearing up?
- 10:34Speaker 1: I'm tearing up a little bit, but you watch this dog taking in the energy of this very excited human that's happy for them, that loves them, that wants them to live their best life, and he's going up to this dog, that you can see the dog starting to wag its tail.
- 10:51Speaker 1: The dog's really excited.
- 10:52Speaker 1: He puts the leash on the dog.
- 10:54Speaker 1: You show the dog being led out to the new owner and he's like have a wonderful life, buddy, you deserve it.
- 11:00Speaker 1: Right and spirit saying watch these types of videos, because this is the energy that you are ingesting when you watch them is the video of love, of excitement, of not just love, unconditional love, and being happy and being excited and saying have a great life, right.
- 11:20Speaker 1: So these are videos you want to watch.
- 11:23Speaker 1: Literally I'm tearing up.
- 11:27Speaker 1: Watch.
- 11:35Speaker 1: Literally I'm tearing up.
- 11:35Speaker 1: It's just so funny because I'm not somebody who cries anywhere else except when I do this work.
- 11:39Speaker 1: Because, again, the feeling from spirit, if you're tearing up to like they're showing me that's the energy.
- 11:44Speaker 1: And so now my nose is clogged because I've teared up.
- 11:47Speaker 1: Apologies, but they're showing me.
- 11:49Speaker 1: That's why I'm the energy, that's the emotions that are coming through I'll get my words in eventually, I promise.
- 11:57Speaker 1: Sorry about the sniffle.
- 11:59Speaker 1: The energy that you're feeling, that teary-eyed, that's the strong love emotion that you're feeling from that video and that's why those emotions come through you.
- 12:12Speaker 1: So I think this live right now is a perfect example of how emotions come through you.
- 12:16Speaker 1: So I think this live right now is a perfect example of how the energy of the video can impact you, because you feel that love so much that you start tearing up Right.
- 12:24Speaker 1: So that's the love.
- 12:25Speaker 1: That's not you reacting to something else.
- 12:28Speaker 1: If you're an empath, that's you absorbing that love and your body is responding to that feeling that you have and your body is responding to that feeling that you have.
- 12:39Speaker 1: I hope that helps explain it a little bit.
- 12:40Speaker 1: The last one, and what spirit is showing me in my head is like war movies, and this is going to be an interesting one, because my son currently is obsessed obsessed, I can't eat like obsessed isn't even a big enough word obsessed with world or Two.
- 12:56Speaker 1: Mind you, he's 11 years old or he will be very shortly, and to me it just cracks me up because he's he's 11 year old talking about I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I don't mean to trigger anybody, but like Nazis and Jews and like and Americans and like the Blitz and like all these different things, right.
- 13:13Speaker 1: So, and to be fair, he has a very good he's, he's very fact based.
- 13:18Speaker 1: This is not, this is not emotional stuff.
- 13:20Speaker 1: He just he has a passion for learning about World War Two and I love that.
- 13:25Speaker 1: He loves history, just like his dad, just like his grandpa, like total, totally normal.
- 13:30Speaker 1: I figured this was coming at some point.
- 13:33Speaker 1: But what he's showing me is it's not just social media, spirit's telling me.
- 13:35Speaker 1: It's not just social media.
- 13:36Speaker 1: Spirit's telling me it's not just social media, it's the shows you ingest as well.
- 13:39Speaker 1: So when he watches, spirit's teaching me right now when he watches these like World War Two documentaries yeah, he's 11 years old watching World War Two documentaries.
- 13:49Speaker 1: I tried to make sure it's not the gory ones, but you know, thankfully they didn't really do that video, those types of videos in the 1940s, so it helps.
- 13:58Speaker 1: But it's okay for him to watch, like the planes and the soldiers marching and stuff that doesn't have these huge emotional ties to it because it doesn't have the battle right, like it's more what he's feeding off, the energy when he watches those is the heroism, the bravado of war, right, and like, the putting yourself, like the macho energy.
- 14:27Speaker 1: It's the macho male energy and that's why he's so attracted to that is because of that macho male energy that I'm one person but I can make a big difference, that I can.
- 14:36Speaker 1: I'm one person but I can drive a tank, I can help.
- 14:39Speaker 1: I have brothers that I'm helping and we're fighting for a very important cause to you know save the world, right, like.
- 14:45Speaker 1: That's the energy he likes, that's the energy he's feeding off of as he watches these, these documentaries.
- 14:54Speaker 1: But what Spirit's saying?
- 14:57Speaker 1: Notice what he doesn't watch.
- 14:58Speaker 1: He does not watch about the concentration camps, he does not watch about, um, the people who are starving and like the cities that have been totally decimated, like, and if he does watch it, he watches it without the people in it, if that makes sense, um, so that it doesn't impact him in that way.
- 15:17Speaker 1: So he naturally, his energy naturally stays away from the stuff that brings down his vibration and makes him not feel good about himself.
- 15:26Speaker 1: So if you have kids, take a look, watch what they do, because your kids that are very, very empathic and it's a whole generation.
- 15:33Speaker 1: I feel like it's different than when I was a kid, because so many young children are wide open to spirit and I have two out of two of my kids that are wide open to spirit and they know they're there and they can see them and talk to them and things like that.
- 15:48Speaker 1: They will surpass me in this type of career in no time if they wanted to, because they're born with it and that's just, and they're being raised in an environment where they accept it as normal.
- 16:00Speaker 1: So, getting back on track, pay attention to your kids and how, if they're empathic, how they naturally move towards certain shows or certain content and move away from other shows and content, and like they're kids, so they don't fully understand their own energy, but just like, pay attention, especially the stuff, like.
- 16:25Speaker 1: For me, I was really sensitive about him watching World War Two items because I didn't want him to watch the bad stuff.
- 16:31Speaker 1: I want to try to protect him and keep him in his bubble for as long as we can, because you're only a kid once and I'd rather him not learn about the atrocities of the world and how bad people can be before he turns 11 years old.
- 16:43Speaker 1: Right, but I digress there.
- 16:47Speaker 1: So yeah, so that I'm gonna bring it all back together.
- 16:51Speaker 1: Let's circle it.
- 16:52Speaker 1: Let's circle it back together.
- 16:54Speaker 1: So that's what Spirit wanted me to talk about is how the energy and this is true with everything.
- 17:02Speaker 1: So I'm giving very specific examples about social media and content with your kids, but this is everything.
- 17:11Speaker 1: So this expands further out.
- 17:12Speaker 1: So I don't want to put the cart before the horse.
- 17:15Speaker 1: I want you to think about social media first and then maybe start expanding it out.
- 17:18Speaker 1: But think about how the videos that you watch on social media impact your energy.
- 17:24Speaker 1: How do you feel after you watch certain content creators?
- 17:28Speaker 1: How do you feel after you're watching certain videos?
- 17:34Speaker 1: Are you noticing a disconnect between what you're watching and how you're feeling?
- 17:38Speaker 1: Because that is the indicator of how the content creator was feeling during that, and start there and then make it bigger.
- 17:48Speaker 1: Now think about how do you feel around certain people, how do you feel around certain events, certain places, and it's all kind of tied up into the same idea that energy is held in places, in people, in events, and that's why you can go to Gettysburg and feel like cold, and feel like someone's watching you and feel like there's massive sadness and massive devastation, because the energy stays there.
- 18:17Speaker 1: And that's why you feel amazing when you go on a cruise right to the Bahamas, because the energy of the people that are going on the cruise are happy, they're not working right and the beach it's like it's happy, they're not bringing negative, horrible energy to the beach.
- 18:36Speaker 1: So that's why certain places feel good and certain places feel bad.
- 18:44Speaker 1: It all makes sense, right, and this is why we're bringing the whole thing together now.
- 18:48Speaker 1: It's important to sage and clear the energy of your space, because it will just sit.
- 18:52Speaker 1: I hate this analogy, but this is exactly what it looks like in my head.
- 18:56Speaker 1: Energy will sit like the dead skin that flakes off of you.
- 19:00Speaker 1: It will just settle in crevices.
- 19:02Speaker 1: You won't see it, you won't know it's there.
- 19:05Speaker 1: But that dead skin, that energy exists, whether you see it or not.
- 19:10Speaker 1: So the only way to get rid of the stagnant energy that you feel and I need to sage the office I'm in I'm going to see if spirit can bring in that energy for you, because my office it's literally stale the energy because I'm tired, my kids have been sick for two weeks.
- 19:28Speaker 1: I've been sick for two weeks, right, and it's this feeling, if you can feel it, it's this feeling of stress, this feeling of exhaustion, it's this feeling of not needing to do enough, it's this feeling of hunger I don't know if your stomach's hurting right now, or you feel like you have an empty stomach right now, like that's the energy of the literal space.
- 19:46Speaker 1: I'm in so point, taken spirit.
- 19:49Speaker 1: I will fucking sage my office before I record these videos so you don't feel all that, but that's what it.
- 19:55Speaker 1: That's why it's so important to sage, and you don't have to sage.
- 20:00Speaker 1: You can use any energy clearing method as long as it works for you.
- 20:03Speaker 1: You could sage, you could Reiki the room, you could set the intention of your guides, your angels, to take the energy out.
- 20:10Speaker 1: And you can do this with yourself as well.
- 20:14Speaker 1: If you do decide to watch the trash on social media, just information is everything.
- 20:21Speaker 1: Because now you're making a conscious decision, so you can consciously decide to watch these shitty videos that make you not feel good, that's cool.
- 20:30Speaker 1: Sage yourself.
- 20:31Speaker 1: After take a salt bath, after go outside and put your feet in the earth, after plant yourself, I guess, so that you can reset that energy.
- 20:44Speaker 1: So then you recognize it's not mine.
- 20:46Speaker 1: Go away, I'm okay now.
- 20:47Speaker 1: Now I'm back to my full self.
- 20:49Speaker 1: I don't have your energy on me and you can move forward with your day.
- 20:51Speaker 1: So that is kind of like fucking cool.
- 20:56Speaker 1: Thanks, spirit, for helping me out with this.
- 20:59Speaker 1: I'm excited for this.
- 21:00Speaker 1: I will definitely do more spirit led podcasts, for sure, based on energetic downloads, and you'll hear it here first, because they like to put some weird stuff through my brain.
- 21:11Speaker 1: So, yeah, watch your energy.
- 21:14Speaker 1: Let me know if this works works.
- 21:15Speaker 1: I'd like seriously tell me if this works.
- 21:18Speaker 1: I'm gonna go do it too.
- 21:19Speaker 1: All right, that's all I had today.
- 21:21Speaker 1: That is my spirit led session for today.
- 21:25Speaker 1: I'm wishing you all a wonderful day.
- 21:27Speaker 1: I'm gonna like I'm taking my own energy back right now.
- 21:30Speaker 1: If you're watching youtube, you're watching me.
- 21:31Speaker 1: I'm taking my own energy back.
- 21:33Speaker 1: You are not gonna feel the energy in my stale office.
- 21:35Speaker 1: You are clear.
- 21:36Speaker 1: I.
- 21:36Speaker 1: I have separated the cords.
- 21:37Speaker 1: There are no ties, and I'm going to leave you with your own amazing energy and hope.
- 21:42Speaker 1: You have a wonderful day, take care.
