There is a desire to merge with the other being, fully understanding it, which is a dimension of empathy itself; therefore empathy facilitates the involvement of growth within the relationship. ❤️#wellnessandwonderpodcast

Empathy is that ability to feel what the other is feeling. It is not a question of understanding only the emotions of others, but of experiencing them directly on your own skin. Unlike those who can grasp what a person perceives through body language, empaths create a mental connection with those around them, coming directly into contact with the thoughts and feelings of others.

The most ancient feeling of the human soul is not fear but empathy. I feel pain for your pain. It is a blessing and a curse at the same time.

Empathy between people is like water in the desert: it is rarely encountered, but when you happen to find it, it calms you and regenerates you.
