Emotional Sensitivity is directly related to Compassion. There are different types and levels of compassion. Compassion from the level of human existence is tied directly to our ability to be empathic. Emotional empaths often have a very difficult time until they learn to control their empathic abilities. I know I did.

Compassion from this level, the human level, often is overwhelming and brings us to tears and causes us to say “yes” to people in circumstances we usually would not, leading us to becoming a doormat. We do this because we “feel” other’s emotions and the emotional frequencies of everyone all around us. We are constantly being bombarded with emotions that are not ours. We “feel” the low frequency emotions of other’s dramas and personal issues and it becomes too much to bare.

When we say “yes” to helping others beyond what is productive and beneficial for their personal growth and our own, we are not doing it for them, although we think we are. We are doing it for our self. We are doing it because the pain is too much to tolerate and we will do anything we can to make it stop.

This is compassion born of the physical human heart chakra. Don’t get me wrong; to hold compassion for others is a wonderful and beautiful thing. It is a virtue we MUST possess if we want to do our part in the forward movement of the Spiritual Awakening of Humanity.
