Does that empath have skill yet? How to tell.

Sure, I could give you fancy answers to that question. What if you do Aura Reading (and you need not be an empath, nor be what is called “psychic”, in order to become perfectly literate about auras)? Then it can be pretty easy to tell.

If you’re a Skilled Empath, you can do a Skilled Empath Merge and you’ll experience directly the degree to which that person — shall we call him or her “Chuck”? — is a Skilled Empath. But that is a bit circular, isn’t it?

Let’s keep the convenient name “Chuck” but aim for commonsense ways to tell if someone is a Skilled Empath.

There are none. Are you kidding?

There aren’t even obvious outer signs of being an empath, skilled or not. (Actually, that is important to know.)

If Chuck complains about being vulnerable or otherwise demands special treatment because of being an empath, beware! Tough Love for Empaths would be appropriate.

Being psychic, doing psychic readings, being fascinated with all things psychic. Being an empath does not mean being a psychic. It’s a completely different kind of conversation.

Some of my best friends are psychics. Some of them are also empaths. Some of them are not. As for me, Rose Rosetree, I’m an example of a Skilled Empath who is not a psychic.

When you’re out with Chuck, you will often hear people identified as “an Energy Vampire.” Special avoidance tactics are not required for Empath Empowerment. Anyone with common sense can notice when someone is draining or annoying. Avoiding such people has nothing to do with developing skill as an empath.

Chuck is omnipotent, omnipresent, all loving, perfect in every way. With all due respect to Chuck, that’s being God, not being a Skilled Empath.

So what can you reasonably expect from a Skilled Empath

The empath does not constantly zip in and out of experiencing your thoughts, feelings, physical sensations, etc.

If the empath seeks that kind of information, the empath spends a minute or so doing a dedicated technique of Skilled Empath Merge.

Otherwise, the empath is busy being a healthy, happy, human being.

A Skilled Empath does not worry over much about boundaries. Or spend time every day imagining an Invisible Shield or other wall-like methods of self-protection.

It’s a natural lifestyle, being a Skilled Empath. Frankly, learning the skills of Empath Empowerment is no harder than learning to ride a bike. I especially recommend the how-to book Become The Most Important Person in the Room: Your 30-Day Plan for Empath Empowerment.

With this method, you read a short chapter each day. Then you do about 10 minutes’ worth of homework.

The really, really practical part of becoming a Skilled Empath

When it comes to being a Skilled Empath, it doesn’t really matter what gets you there. Plenty of Skilled Empaths have never heard of Rose Rosetree or her methods.

On the other hand, it is highly unlikely that a person can learn to figure it out alone. Or in just a few minutes. Same as riding a bike, right?

And once Chuck has learned Empath Empowerment, or bike riding, does he need to talk about it incessantly? Of course not.

You never forget skills of Empath Empowerment, no more than you forget how to ride a bike. It’s just one of those quiet, easy ways to be competent here at Earth School.
