The Highly Sensitive Empath - Quinn Rowe
Introduction to Empathy
In a world where emotions have often been associated with weakness, it can be pretty tough coping in society if you're an empath. It's even worse when (like I used to be) you don't even know you're an empath, because often what happens is you invariably find yourself trapped in emotions, relationships, or environments that suck the life out of you.
Dealing with your emotions (and those of others) in a world that doesn't appreciate or value your sensitivities can be overwhelming and very detrimental to your wellbeing. There's a real sense of suffocation and powerlessness that accompanies this challenge which must be addressed and dealt with as early on in life as possible; otherwise, happiness becomes a daunting task.
This book and all the information contained is made for the sole purpose of helping you, the reader, finally come to a new understanding of what it means to be an Empath.
Sure you've seen a lot of people talk about it. Both science and spirituality seem to have strong concepts around what it means to be an empath. But you know what? In the end, only an empath can fully understand what it feels like to go through daily human living as such. And as far as I can see, there i'sn't much knowledge given in the way of navigating this path of being an empath successfully. At best, we find material that seems to increase confusion or promote a lifestyle that feels isolating and unsatisfying.
So if like me you want to enjoy life to the fullest while still honoring the subtle differences that enable you to perceive human living through a different lens, then may this book aid you in meeting that end.
Here's what this book isn't:
Before we get started here’s some clarity regarding what you can expect from reading this book and what it won’t be about. This isn't about some gendered nonsense isolating one from the other as I find that to be utterly unnecessary since research in HSP (highly sensitive people) shows that there's no difference between men and women.
It will neither excuse nor encourage inexcusable behavior, and it's not about elevating empaths over normal
people. I've no interest in seeing you live an isolated life, and I certainly don't want to aid you in avoiding
anything that would promote a healthier, happier human experience. I feel you already know all too well what to avoid. You certainly don't need my help with that!
But what you probably need is greater clarity on how you can enrich your life and stretch beyond the current comfort zone that abstracts the freedom you can feel in burning up your heart.
This is my intention in writing this book. If you resonate with the idea of overcoming the limitations that society often places on those of us who are highly sensitive and gifted with empathic abilities, then it's time for us to begin this journey.
Pace yourself. Trust in this full course and know that you'll emerge more fearless, and empowered if you open-mindedly absorb the ideas contained in each chapter.
Shall we begin?

Chapter 1: The Difference Between Empathy and Being An Empath
"W hen you begin to develop your powers of empathy and imagination, the whole world opens up to you."
- Susan Sarandon.
Empathy is a trait that can be learned by anyone. And to some extent, we all practice empathy in varying degrees as we interact with each other. But showing empathy and being an empath aren't identical.
Here's how to process the difference between the two.
Imagine you're sitting down at Starbucks with two of your friends that you very much adore. Both strong in character and while different in personalities, you know they both have big hearts.
Suddenly a couple sitting next to you cause a scene. The guy bangs the table in anger spilling a perfectly wonderful Frappuccino all over and yells a few words before stomping out. The woman left behind feels utterly crushed and embarrassed. Tears stream down her red cheeks, and she hangs her head as low as possible as she quickly tries to clean up the mess created. For a moment, all eyes are on her, and you could feel everything that she felt.
One of your friends turns to you and asks, Should we go over there and see if we can help?
As you look over to your friend, you notice her cheeks are flushed, and her eyes are just as teary as yours. It's almost as if you're both experiencing what the couple experienced. Before you can even respond, your other friend jumps in and says, Naaa, she'll be fine. Look she's already stopped crying. Let it go.
What just happened in that scenario?
One of your friends did show some empathy and recognized the discomfort of the woman, but that's as far as it went. She was glad to get on with her day as if nothing happened. The other friend, however, seemed to have had a completely different experience. Her entire body chemistry changed. And you felt it too, didn't you?
This is the subtle difference between showing empathy and being an empath.
Empathy is the ability to understand and share the feelings of another. With a little conscious effort, every human being can demonstrate empathy when the situation calls for it.
When one is an empath, however, it's an entirely different experience. It's more like having an elevated gift and an ability to step into another person's shoes. An empath has the power to step outside his or her own experience and understand what another person is saying, thinking, and feeling. It's more than just being a highly sensitive person, and it goes beyond sensing emotions.
According to science, empaths are highly sensitive and can process emotions faster and more intimately. The common acronym for this is HSP meaning a Highly Sensitive Person. A highly sensitive person isn't to be confused with an attention seeker or overly sensitive people who enjoy unpleasant tantrum infused behaviors. It means you're high in sensory processing sensitivity. A pure HSP is usually very aware of the feelings of others and very reluctant to cause a scene.
So, as you may have guessed from the example I shared of your two friends, one of them does demonstrate empathy, which is excellent. But the other friend is more likely to be considered an empath.
A real empath goes beyond being an HSP; he or she also has empathic abilities which, when mastered, result in a very powerful being capable of various things such as healing others. But we'll get to tackle that a little later in the book.
The obvious question that follows is: how does one know whether they possess empathic abilities or not?
I mean, do you know if you're an empath? How about we finally shed some light on that.
A Self-diagnosis answering one question: Am I An Empath?
I think we all have empathy. We may not have enough courage to display it.
-Maya Angelou
I grew up like most kids with parents who wanted me to fit in and be like all the other kids. Except I wasn't like the other kids. Being on my own made me feel better. I couldn't stand being in large crowds. Growing up, I remember watching something on television that was a particularly bad story, and it freaked me out. I don't recall precisely
