A Shamanic- Psychotherapy Approach to Healing Hyper-Empathy

Empathy has been glorified in the New Age subculture as a spiritual virtue or as an indication that one has special psychic abilities. However, hyper-empathy or (or what Luisa calls "toxic empathy") can be a boundary and self-worth issue, generating from early childhood trauma. Hyper-empathy can lead to relational chaos and even relational and spiritual harm. Luisa will offer a teaching on the boundary issues involved in being overly empathic and will guide viewers through a shamanic-somatic healing self-intervention.
