I've read parts of The Field and The Intention Experiment. That's what led me to this site. The journey I've been on this year led me to those books as well as many others along the same lines. Picking up a book about Palm Reading last fall started me on this leg of my life's journey.
I bought a book about palm reading for fun. I was curious and I thought it might be a good way to get to know girls. I started getting things right immediately. This led me to get more books. I wanted to…

I just wanted to tell you that I too 'stumbled' into my gift. I never thought of myself as psychic - always thought it would be really fun to be psychic though. But my idea of being "psychic" was that I'd just know what people were thinking.
My "introduction" to being empathic went like this. I was on a second date, I was having a really pleasant time, I enjoyed the man I was with and we were watching the sun set over the pacific ocean. All of a sudden I burst out crying, and I couldn't stop, I couldn't breath and it went on for probably 5 or 10 minutes (which is an eternity on a second date!)
I finally managed to explain myself and said, "I don't know what's happening... I've never felt this way before. I feel like I'm in an emotional black hole."
He said, "I feel that way all the time."
It was months before I met someone able to explain what was happening to me. Apparently I was picking up my date's emotions and feeling them as if they were my own. When I wasn't around him, I felt very 'neutral' but when I was with him I was very attracted to him, but I'd wonder what was I thinking the minute I went home.
I ultimately discovered that if I was feeling something I'd never felt before, I was definitely feeling someone else's feelings. And that helped a lot. I also had to learn how to feel other people's emotions without "taking them on" - I trained myself to "feel" as an observer, rather than physically feeling someone's feelings.
When I saw the t.v. show "The Medium" I could totally relate to the main character. She is constantly struggling to make sense of what she's feeling - and the truth is there aren't many people who can help you make sense of what you're feeling and knowing.
In any case, I just wanted to offer a little support. I didn't go out seeking to be a psychic - I'd never even been to a psychic when this happened (I was in my early 30's at the time).
There will be people who will assist you along the way, but what I've mainly learned is to trust myself, trust what I'm seeing and feeling.
Don't be surprised when your 'knowing' expands - palm reading opened the 'door' - trusting yourself will allow you to know what you need to know right in the moment.

I hope you've had great success with the girls - I'll have to pass that on to my son!
I don't know that you'll get this message - doesn't look like you've been here in a year or so. Let me know if you're 'around' and I'll share with you - I really enjoyed reading your blog.

Yes, I do live in LA, although I consider myself more San Diegan than Angelino. I have lived in Chico, CA, SF, and have family all over this beautiful state. I love all of California! :) Didn't we get the very best!? :) Love, Judi.
It's always wonderful to share the birth of an empath. Thank you for so eloquently sharing the first steps of your journey with us.

Thanks for the question on meditating. I've been meditating in earnest now for about a year.
In most literature, beta level, which is basically every day walk about thinking, is considered the level at which our brain functions. However, some have subdivided this to gamma and even epsilon, for higher and more precise measuring.
When you are at this level, you going up, not down. In other words you are doing an extremely focused meditation, so much so that nothing exists except the focus of the meditation. My personal visualization for getting there is a spinning top, that continually speeds up, while at the same time, I focus on the problem or intention.
My everyday meditation goes the other way, down to Alpha, Theta and finally Delta. This meditation clears the mind of any thoughts (and for me) puts me in touch with 'the universal mind' - 'God' , whatever name you have fashioned for yourself ;-)
