ramonamead's review against another edition
5.0
I have read the author's previous book Esoteric Empathy, and while it was quite helpful to me as am empath, it was also a bit over my head at times. This new one was more accessible, and again provided me with a ton of resources and techniques to keep in my empath tool box.
Raven writes with a friendly tone, and explains complicated concept in a straightforward manner. He provides citations and resources in places where the reader may need or want to seek further information.
What I appreciate most about Raven's writing for empaths is that he is not instructing us on how to merely survive bring an empath, but to see it as the gift it truly is. He reminds us that we are not simply sponges for others' emotions and energy, and that we have a responsibility to spread our joyful light and possess the ability to transform others' energy within us and release it into the world at a higher frequency. This was all mind blowing stuff to me at first. To say it has changed my life is an understatement. I no longer see being an empath as a burden at any time, which I used to occasionally. Now I feel as if I have a super power and am continually striving to learn more and practice different strategies for self care, keeping in mind my sensitive without any shame or guilt.
Many thanks to NetGalley for an advanced digital copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.

(3.5 stars) This book was a guide to self care tailored to Empaths on a journey to spiritual enlightenment. I enjoyed the different exercises and guided meditations and have bookmarked some to do at a later time. Overall I don’t think any of the information is new or life changing but it is a concise resource for empaths and the struggles we deal with day to day. *ARC provided by NetGalley for review.
