Have you ever had that feeling when you’re talking with someone that what they are saying doesn’t really match up with how you’re feeling? Paying attention to body language, the overt and subtle cues, can often be very helpful in validating our own inner knowing about a person or situation. Some body language signs of crossed arms, turning away, or avoiding eye contact are more easily recognized and instantly understood. In today’s episode we discuss and share the many nuances of body language that will help us navigate our friendships, relationships and work environments with more ease.

As empaths, we strive to communicate from a place of honesty, confidence, caring and with a concern for how our words and actions impact other people. Being able to come from a place of assertiveness not only empowers us to be our truest selves, it also helps us to set boundaries and express our needs without feeling guilty. In this show we discuss ways to tap into your own inner assertiveness while also bringing awareness to the behaviors and communication styles of those who may be coming from a more aggressive or passive aggressive stance.

Remote learning and hybrid school models are just some of the challenges facing our empathic children during these times. Today we discuss strategies, tips and techniques with Courtney Malahais, an elementary school teacher who is helping her students be successful and engaged learners.

We are in unprecedented times and helping our children navigate these changes is an investment in their futures.

This week we discuss the book Archetypes: Who Are You? by Caroline Myss. Although there are an infinite number of archetypes, this book explores 10 patterns: the Advocate, the Artist/Creative, the Athlete, the Caregiver, the Fashionista, the Intellectual, the Queen/Executive, the Rebel, the Spiritual Seeker, and the Visionary. Ms. Myss states, ” Archetypes speak to us in a language of myths and symbols, perfectly suited to a society that has become fluent in high-tech code, instant messages and Twitter-speak. The only difference is that archetypes originate in our cosmic intelligence and not in our technical awareness.” Join us as we discuss and explore each archetype and how becoming more familiar with each can lead to greater self acceptance and also a greater understanding of someone else’s viewpoint on life!

It’s time again to share stories, comments and questions from our community of Enlightened Empaths! If you have something you would like to share with our community, please message us on our Facebook page or send an email to enlightenedempaths@gmail.com.

Please join us today as we discuss food and the empath; how certain foods may effect the empath and ways some of us could be using food as a way to deflect or absorb all the emotions we feel. Some empaths may use food as a way of shielding or protecting from all the energy they feel which can lead to weight issues or sometimes food addiction. Although we turn to food as a source of energy and nutrition, it can also be centered around comfort, protection, stress, exhaustion and grounding our energy. Throughout this episode there are useful tips, suggestions, and even a short quiz to help you determine if you are an empath with a strong connection to food. We also discuss some basics of Aruveydic body types and how this may help you to align more with yourself , your eating style and food preferences.
