Psychic Protection in the Healing field…


Over the years I have noticed that most of the people working in the Medical field are Empathic.   The same can be said about the people who are drawn to work in education and social services.  This is not a coincidence, in fact it is probably the most common denominator between these folks…since childhood they have been drawn to comforting others.   In fact they can’t help but want to help others, for they truly can feel their pain.  The basic nature of an Empath is to constantly be searching for emotional input.  This is not something they think about, in fact it has little to do with intellectual thought.  Empathic ability is a form of  Psychic knowing in which the Empath receives information regarding the emotions of a person, animal or place by way of the 6th sense or Psychic knowing.   This ability to pick up on others emotional needs can be a fantastic tool for those working in the healing fields, but without understanding and control this gift can become a nuisance.

A few years ago I was the guest speaker at a staff appreciation day for mental health workers.  As I looked out over the crowd, I couldn’t help but notice how many of the people in the crowd were over weight, drank too much or chain smoked cigerettes.  Recently I spent some time visiting loved ones in the hospital and saw the same thing  amongst the staff.  The compassionate, caring individuals who spend their days caring for others are often the same people who sorely lack in the ability to take care of themselves.  Often health care professionals are overworked and have a hard time letting go of their day when it ends.  This is impart due to confidentiality and not being able to discuss their day & the stress of carrying the emotional fear and frustration of others.  This stress pays its toll often leaving those in the healing field just plain spent.   When we don’t have enough time for ourselves and we carry around other peoples burdens we have a tendency to self soothe through food, alcohol, tobacco, etc.  Plus lets not forget high levels of stress dump extra cortisol into the system, making it hard to loose weight and dumping extra pounds into the belly area.

Why Empaths are easily drained–

Spending the day with others can be quite draining on Empathic people, particularly if that day involves caring for them.  This is the result of having no filter, or volume control.  Like the other senses, the 6th sense can be overwhelmed by input.  Just like our ears can hurt when exposed to loud noise and our taste buds can become inflamed if exposed to something too hot or too sour.  The difference between the 6th sense and the other senses is that most of us learn at a young age how to moderate the input to our hearing, sight, taste, touch and smell.  Our parents tell us to turn down the music as it will damage our ears, we learn that popping a jalapeno into our mouth is going to burn and that starring at bright lights messes with our vision.  The other senses are sociable acceptable.  We believe in them & science has proven them to be real.  Well you all know how I feel about science.  I love it, but lets face it there are plenty of things science claimed did not exist (like a round earth), that later were proven different.  The problem with being an Empath who works in the healing field is you are always being exposed to heavy duty emotions.  People in the hospital are scared, frustrated and overwhelmed…If you work in mental health, you are working with people with handicaps and mental disorders, schools lets face it children struggle to contain their emotions.  These situations are a guaranteed storm of emotions and the Empath working in them is being exposed 8+hours a day.

Carrying protection-


Booby Stones & Pocket Protectors…are names I have given to personal stones carried for Psychic protection and enhancing ones Intuition.  As you know I am a big lover of stones and crystals.  I have stones I use in my healing work, and stones I use to hold space, the list of stones I have and their purposes is a long one.  But my favorite of favorites, my tried and true companion is my Booby stone.  Mine is a beautiful Labrodorite that not only enhances my intuitive ability, but protects against Psychic attack or overload.  I don’t wear it every day, but if I am going into an emotionally charged situation or place I carry it in my bra, against my Heart Chakra….hence being named a Booby Stone.  Not to worry those of you who do not wear bras to carry your stones in, you can also carry your stone in your shirt or pant pockets or get yourself a little pouch to carry your stone.  I carry my stone in my bra as I can place it right up against my Heart Chakra.  Your Heart Chakra is attached to love and it is one of the  most vulnerable places for those who are Intuitive.  We reach out with love to comfort others and therefore we open our Heart Chakra to do so.  Pocket Stones are a good choice as well, particularly if you carry them in your front pant pocket.  This places them close to the Root Chakra..the Root Chakra is responsible for keeping us feeling grounded and centered.  Carrying a bit of protection is the first line of defense for those working in the healing fields, it makes it so we are not going in alone.

Remember being Empathic is a gift, one you need to  learn to control…
