Product Description

America’s first book for empaths has been selling briskly since first published in 2001. Here’s the new audiobook edition, for empaths, read by empaths. Although an estimated 1 in 20 Americans was born an empath, few know it. They are unskilled empaths, which means they suffer from such problems as emotional instability, (apparent) co-dependence, low self-esteem, and hypochondria. Rose Rosetree's pioneering book can change that. She explains how listeners can improve the quality of life by turning off unwanted empathy. Her self-help method also includes techniques to turn empathy on. At will. For direct experience of what it is like to be a completely different person. Science fiction? Not really. Rosetree regularly receives thank you letters that say, “How come nobody told me this before?” and, sometimes, “You have saved my life.” Rosetree teaches her techniques on three continents, from Japan’s premier seminar institute to public schools in the Bible Belt (with professional credit for therapists and doctors). What makes her techniques so distinctive? They involve new ways to move consciousness--not hackneyed ideas like “Avoid toxic people” and “Put up walls.” Empaths need something more, something different. Now anyone can learn… in the comfort of home… how to become a skilled empath, just by listening to this amazing book.

From AudioFile
Rosetree's program can teaches people how to apply their empathic gifts to the problems and opportunities of everyday life. The 25 lessons are aimed at helping amateur empaths fine-tune and enjoy their skills instead of feeling weird or being frequently disrupted by all the unexplained sensations they receive. The program is sprinkled with insights from the spiritual, psychological, and medical worlds but stays on the task of integrating one's talents into a conscious and positive sense of self. It's too bad the entire production was not narrated by Marilyn Cooley, who did the introduction and other segments. The author's reading has an exaggerated, almost singsong, quality that interferes with the program's serious intentions.

Customer Reviews

Very strongly recommended
Rose Rosetree draws upon her many years of experience and expertise with empath empowerment in Empowered by Empathy: Twenty-Five Ways To Fly In Spirit an informative introduction to awakening personal empathy through the application of Rosetree's expert techniques and intuitive spiritual development. This six-disc CD audiobook edition of Empowered by Empathy has a total running time of 7 hours, 13 minutes and deftly carries the listener through easy, step-by-step techniques to taking hold of and control life; turning on the gifts for recognition of the true experience of "otherness"; turning off the gifts to block picking up the pains of others; and obtaining a practical understanding of empathy as a true and enduring blessing, regardless of how much suffering has resulted in having lived as an untrained, uncontrolled empath in the past. Empowered by Empathy is very strongly recommended, especially for those who were born with physical, intellectual, spiritual, emotional, or metaphysical empathy.

Wonderful adjunct to the written word

"Jen's upset about something." my co-worker said about our receptionist. I looked up from my paperwork and replied "How can you tell that just by how she walks down the hallway? " "I don't know. I just can. Can't everyone?

Actually, no. Only one in twenty of us are empaths - those of us who "identify with and understand another's situation, feelings, and motives" (American Heritage dictionary). If you are someone with those gifts, this audiobook is well worth the time invested in listening to it.

Rose Rosetree, teacher, author and yes, empath has written and recorded a very unique guide for those of us with these wonderful skills in "Empowered by Empathy". Not only does she explain the various forms of empathic knowing (emotional oneness, intellectual shapeshifting, etc.) but she goes on to offer a variety of techniques specifically designed to assist in working with these gifts rather than being hindered by them.

My co-worker, mentioned above, is exquisitely attuned to what others are feeling. Yet, she's had to all but turn that ability off in order to stay afloat emotionally. Because of her centered and calm demeanor, others are drawn to her and she often finds herself drowning in their "stuff". If you've been there, as I have, you know it's not a fun place to be. Rose teaches skills that will show you how to turn down the empathy dial so you can still be present for others but take care of yourself at the same time. She also gives you real life examples to clarify her points and shares her answers to questions the reader might have (based on her years of working with empaths).

The six cd set runs a bit over seven hours and is great to listen to in the car. Rosetree's voice carries her clear and positive intent as a teacher of this wonderful work. I listened on my way to work and felt uplifted by the twinkly energy in her voice. I read the book a couple years ago but listening to it allowed me to catch things I missed by reading and also jogged my mind about techniques that were relevant to my own inner work. One of the things I like most about all of Rose's books is her ability to speak to different levels of the audience without losing anyone by being too technical nor boring anyone by being too basic.

A wonderful adjunct to the printed book, "Empowered by Empathy" audiobook is a good way to learn how to fine tune your empathic skills and have a little fun with it.

Narration by the author packs an extra punch
The content is so innovative and helpful, and I loved the voices. Rosetree's especially packed a punch for me. To have such a powerful empath read these words made them penetrate deeply into my consciousness. If you are an empath and you love audiobooks, this book will make a deep and healing impression on you, as well.Let Today Be A Holiday 365 Ways to Co-Create with GodAura Reading Through ALL Your Senses: Celestial Perception Made Practical, Second Edition
