Class Descriptions:
Sensitives, Psychics, and Empaths, Oh My! The Challenges of Extraordinary Perception
Have you been told you were "too sensitive"? Can you be over-stimulated by sensory or psychic stimuli? Do you appreciate art, music, performance, fine food and other sensual experiences with keen pleasure? Do you find being in groups to be challenging because you are bombarded by other people's thoughts or energies? Do you cry at sad movies?
If you interact with the world in these -- or similar -- ways, you are probably part of the 20% of the population that are Sensitives. Come take Dr. Aron's short quiz and learn about the gifts, challenges and strategies -- both practical and metaphysical -- of living with extraordinary perception. Jackie is a sensitive, psychic and empath who is writing a book about this topic. She has worked as a psychotherapist, spiritual counselor and psychic. Please fill out her questionnaire if you would like to contribute to her research. Becoming an Empowered Empath
If you feel others' emotions or pain, if you take on their illnesses or problems, if you are a natural mimic or chameleon, or if you have problems separating your sense of self from that of others, you may be an empath. Because empaths naturally connect energetically with others, they tend to face boundary challenges. Many empaths are seeking information and tools to better fit into a world where they feel like oddballs. This class will discuss the specific gifts and difficulties of being an empath in more detail than in the more general Sensitives class.
Come learn the three perceptual positions -- Self, Other and Observer -- and how to switch between them. We'll discuss metaphysical and psychological techniques for healthy separation, including disassociation techniques, psychic shielding and energetic cleansing. Jackie knows many empaths, as they are common in metaphysical and healing communities, and she is one herself. Jackie pulls from her metaphysical and therapeutic backgrounds to explore this topic. She enjoys exploring the areas where the psyche and the psychic overlap. Psychic Self-Defense
Many spiritual folks have trouble with taking on thoughts, feelings or energies that are not theirs. Psychic self-defense techniques can offer ways to learn healthier psychic boundaries and to keep negativity and curses at bay.
Let us discuss and practice techniques for psychic shielding, cleansing and energy retrieval. We will discuss how the chakras relate to psychic self-defense; assertiveness and building ego strength; attachments, possessions and energy vampires; grounding, soul retrieval and shamanic recapitulation. We will also discuss techniques for exploring our own Shadow issues around these areas. These techniques are also important for psychics, energy healers and anyone opening up their psychic abilities or doing out-of-body travel. Jackie is a High Priestess of the Wicca and a professional psychic and healer. |
