Matty (00:00):
Hey there, amazing souls and welcome to today's show.
Emily and I are excited tobe with you once again and we
wanted to dive into somethingthat is near and dear to us.
I know we talk a lot aboutthe Akashic records and
developing your intuition.
And especially within theAkashic Records, giving we
(00:20):
just completed our first everlive run, four days, Akashic
Attunement (00:23):
a Journey to Intuitive Mastery course.
So we're feeling reallyexcited about completing that
and just super high vibeson all the amazingness and
the deep connections that wemade with others, but that
people were facilitating withthemselves and that's the point.
(00:44):
It is for you to learn howto connect deep with yourself
and facilitate your own higherawareness of yourself, of your
perspective, of what you cameto learn and do, and to navigate
and to grow from, and to journeyin this third dimensional
realm, this beautiful earthschool that we're all upon.
(01:06):
But we wanted to deviate alittle bit because one of
the topics we covered in thatcourse, and we realized it.
It really needed someattention within our podcast,
and that's empathic gifts.
They are different thanintuition, but it is a way that
most people have some sort ofempathy ability, and it's a
way to process energy aroundus to know our environment,
(01:30):
and we just find it reallycool, vastly important to know
about, at least just to have alittle information on the gifts.
And see what jives withyou or you know, if you're
vibing with something or not.
But understand that there areways that aren't tapping into
your intuition, that you canknow more about the environment
(01:52):
and the people within yourenvironment and what's going
on and reading this energy.
There's just a plethora of waysto know more about oneself and
what's going on around you.
It doesn't have to bethe Akashic records, it
doesn't have to just beintuition development.
There are so manyother ways out there.
So we wanted to jump inand kind of get into these
empathic gifts with you today.
Emily (02:13):
Yes.
Just like Matty said, I justwanna jump back really fast
and say that we have, we are soincredibly excited and proud of
our Akashic attunement course.
It was just like a dreamcome true to put together
and it, we just had so muchfun with it and it turned
(02:33):
out even way better than Ieven imagined that it would.
So it was really excitingto, you know, seeing the
final product put togetherand just see how really
amazing this course really is.
And just a live or a lifeupdate really quickly.
We are.
Leaving on Wednesday, wellactually the day that this airs,
(02:57):
we'll be leaving, you know,day after tomorrow our precious
puppy friend Aspen that we'vebeen with for the last four
months here in Fort Collins.
So we're a little bit sadabout that, but we're gonna
be heading to close to Denverfor just two nights to hang
out with some kitty friends.
(03:18):
And so that'll be excitingto meet them and, you know,
to give them some love.
And to bring it back to now weare very excited to be talking
about these empathic gifts.
Just having this insight intoyourself, knowing your specific
gifts is very, very helpful.
A lot of them can cause youto have like some really
(03:43):
unique and kind of weirdsymptoms and just experiences.
Knowing these things aboutyourself really just kind of
helps give you that insightas to what the hell is
going on at certain times.
So I feel like it's, it'sbeen very helpful for me.
I mean, I thought that I was anemotional empath for a very long
(04:05):
time, and turned out I get my,you know, Akashic record reading
like five, six years ago now.
And sure enough, emotionalempath was definitely
one of my gifts and aswell as clairsentience.
So it even goes a little bitfurther than emotional empath.
But that is the first onewe wanna start with is
(04:26):
emotional empathy and, andbeing an emotional empath.
And that is typicallythe most common.
When people think about beingan empath, they think that.
You know, they're an emotionalempath, and while they may be
picking up on emotions, thereare these different ways to
be processing these differentexperiences and emotions.
(04:49):
And so it's very importantto kind of understand the
difference that way youkind, you do have this
awareness about yourself.
So an emotional empathliterally experiences
the emotions of others asif they were their own.
And they receive andprocess this emotional data
through their heart chakra.
So it's like they literally liketake it in through their heart
(05:12):
chakra and they're filteringthe other people's emotional
energy through their heart.
This can cause a lot ofemotional, like ups and downs.
It can definitely cause likean emotional rollercoaster
because you can be frequentlyoverwhelmed with these emotions
because you're literally liketaking them on and thinking
(05:32):
that they're your own becauseyou know your heart's beating
fast because it's literallyprocessing this emotional
energy like through it.
Matty (05:41):
And if you don't understand that you're
an emotional empath,you may think that every
emotion you feel is yours.
That's the tricky thingis to distinguish between
your own emotions andthose of other people.
That's why a lot of emotionalempaths talk about being
overwhelmed or they feelvictimized by other people's
(06:02):
emotions, like they'reforcing them on them.
It's just how youraura operates.
It just allows it inand then it allows it in
through your heart chakra.
So being able to understand youremotional empath, one empowers
you to know, okay, is this mine?
Is this someone else's?
Oh, it's someone else's.
Okay, I need to go backto, hopefully you have a
(06:24):
way to clear your energy.
It's one of the things thatwe teach in a couple different
ways, but clearing yourenergy and starting fresh,
especially before you goand after you leave an area
where you know you're gonnabe around a bunch of people.
Can get you back tosquare one with yourself.
That's the really tricky thing,is when you don't realize you're
an emotional empath and you takethis stuff on and you get this
(06:46):
rollercoaster or this overwhelmof emotions because you don't
know what's yours or what's notyours, what you're processing.
You're just processing itall so it can feel like
everything's yours, whetherit makes sense or doesn't make
sense with what you're feeling.
Emily (07:02):
Yes, that's so true and I feel like a lot of
people that identify withbeing emotional empaths know
exactly what it feels like tobe overwhelmed, overwhelmed
by other people's emotions,feeling crazy at times.
Like wondering, especially,you know, if you're living
with a lot of differentpeople, you can literally.
(07:25):
You're wonder what in the worldis going on, especially if you
are living with someone youknow, possibly like a romantic
partner, where you have likethis chaotic relationship.
And then it's like, you know,you break up and you move on and
you have this other relationshipand you're like, holy shit
I wasn't crazy all along.
(07:46):
Like this emotionalrollercoaster that I was
experiencing really was likejust the two auras coming
together and creating thisfreaking chaotic energy.
So I don't wanna likepoint the blame here and
say it's just their fault.
But there are certain peoplethat you know, you get together
and you do feel a littlecrazy sometimes, I feel like.
(08:08):
And then others, youknow, they'll help
balance out your nervoussystem a little bit more.
So it's just a very good ideato be aware of these kind of
things and the, the impact thatcertain people and the people
in they your life have on you.
Matty (08:24):
Absolutely, I think that's a good moment to move on.
Emily (08:27):
I put this one next to it because I, I feel
like it's, they're reallyinteresting and sometimes
people can think that they'revery similar when they aren't.
Matty (08:36):
Oh, totally.
Then the next one that Emily'smentioning is physical empathy.
And the thing aboutphysical empathy is that
you are experiencing withinyour own physical body.
You can be experiencingthe physical state of
others within your body.
You could be experiencingwhat would be their
(08:58):
physical state from theiremotions within your body.
So it can get a little trickybecause you're not necessarily
processing their emotionsthrough your own heart chakra.
But if they are having aphysical reaction to their
emotions within theirbody, especially if they're
(09:19):
denying it, you are goingto pick up big time on this.
And I am a physicalempath myself.
And something that cancome up is, let's say
you're out to dinner.
The server that comes up to thetable to say hello is new and
they're really anxious becausethey're new and you're just
(09:39):
chilling and you're out andyou're just having a good time.
You have no idea that they'renervous and, you know, holding
that back and they're beingfriendly as they can, but.
You know, they've got allthis anxiety and nervousness
underneath there and, youknow, maybe their, their
foot's tapping nervouslywhile they're next to you.
And the next thing you know,your knee starts tapping really
nervously and you have no idea.
(10:00):
Like you're feeling thisnervousness and you're
tapping and you can feelanxiety in your body.
And you're like, I'm outhere with like someone that
I adore and this is goofy.
And we were just gigglingand now I'm feeling anxiety
like, what's going on?
You have no ideawhat's happening.
It could be somethingthis simple like.
Emily (10:16):
Yeah, like sweaty palms and Oh, absolutely.
Like beating heart, like justracing, heart racing thoughts.
Like these types of thingscan literally like be
experienced within a physicalempaths body and it's like
literally outta nowhere.
Matty (10:32):
You're just literally picking up the physical
sensations that they'regoing through within
their physical body.
But you have no, unless you cansee that happening within them,
or they tell you and you'relike, oh yeah, I'm feeling
that within my own body too.
This can turn into, like oftenphysical empaths can pick
(10:53):
up like aches and pains andheadaches that will come and
go when you're around others.
So it can be very weird if youdon't understand that you're
a physical empath and you canpick up the physical sensations
from other people's bodies.
What's going on withinthem when you're near them?
Just like an emotional empathcan get overwhelmed processing
(11:14):
others' emotions and notunderstanding that they're
processing someone else's stuff.
The same thing can happento a physical empath.
If you don't realize,oh, you know what?
I'm a physical empath, thatback ache, that headache,
that could be someone else.
Let me just take a chill pill.
Don't make this more than it is.
Let me breathe through thisand I'll navigate and move
(11:34):
on, clear my energy andwe'll see where it's at.
Maybe it's me, maybe it's not.
But just knowing, havingawareness, and we've talked
about this a lot throughmany, many, many episodes.
That awareness in and ofitself can alleviate a lot of
overwhelm, a lot of stress, alot of trying to figure things
out because we understand,let me just take a breath.
(11:56):
Let's see where I'm at.
It could be X, y, or Z.
I don't need to blow thisoutta proportion yet.
There's no need to worry.
And physical empathyis definitely that way.
Emily (12:07):
Yeah.
So awareness and energyclearing is super important.
And just to recap a littlebit, the difference between an
emotional empath and a physicalempath is like if we take that.
The server that Matty wastalking about, the emotional
empath will feel the anxiety.
They will start to feel veryanxious and still may feel
(12:28):
the physical symptoms, butthey will literally feel the
anxiety first, whereas thephysical empath will feel
the physical symptoms first.
They'll feel the racing heart.
They'll feel the sweatypalms, they'll feel that
energy running throughthe body, like just being
unsettled, the restlessness.
(12:48):
So that is the biggestdifference between the emotional
empath and the physical empath.
And it actually kind ofreminds me of a client.
We did a Soul Journey Akashicrecord reading for her, and
she was blown away when shefound out, when she read
about being a physical empath.
And she said, you know, I,I go to church every Sunday.
(13:09):
And I wanna be a good Christianand they tell us that we should
pray for people, but like everytime I pray for people, I, I
start to just feel terrible.
It's like I feel, I actuallylike, feel what they're feeling
and I, and I look around and I'mlike, how can all these people
do this for these other people?
I don't get it.
(13:29):
And so it was just kind of thatawareness really helped her to
know, okay, this is somethingthat not everyone experiences.
You know, everyone thatprays for everyone else is
in constantly having the backache and the headache or the
symptoms of the illnesses of thepeople that they're praying for.
And so this awareness, youknow, helped her be able to
(13:52):
pray for people without feelingthat physical pain as well.
So that really helpedher and really helped
expand her mind a bit.
Matty (14:03):
Yeah, that was a super interesting case.
I'm glad you mentioned that.
That was rather cool forher to connect prayer to her
physical empathy and whatshe was doing for others.
And then to be able tostill continue to do so.
It didn't create fear, thatawareness created empowerment.
Oh, now I don't haveto take this on.
(14:23):
Now I know whereit's coming from.
Now I can separate myself fromit and still pray for their
healing, for their blessingsfor the good, you know, to help
them and their life as well.
Emily (14:34):
Yeah.
So I feel like, uh, emotionalempathy and physical
empathy are often, you know,kind of seen as similar.
Like Matty and I for thelongest time, were like,
oh yeah, we definitely havethe same empathic gifts.
But they always seemed alittle bit different because
with both of those, you wouldsay, I feel other people,
whether you're feeling thephysical symptoms or you're
(14:55):
feeling their emotions, youare still feeling other people.
And so it took us, you know,until we got our Akashic
record readings and startedworking in the Akashic records,
really understanding thedifference between those two.
And then, now we're able torecognize that about ourselves.
Matty (15:14):
Absolutely.
We really, I was gonna say,we really wanted to dive
deep with emotional empathyand physical empathy.
And, uh, we'll move a littlequicker through these next
ones, but let's jump into.
Yeah, place empathy.
Emily (15:27):
Which this is also one of Matty's gifts.
Matty (15:29):
This is one of my gifts as well.
You're sensing the, theenergy of a place of building
a home, but the energy ofliving beings that have
been within these places,over and over again.
The energy just seeps intothe walls, to the ceilings, to
the foundation, and the energybecomes a part of this place.
(15:53):
And that's the energythat you sense.
It's the energy of the peoplethat have been inhabiting
that home, that family thatlived there for 60 years.
Or the conglomeration oflet's say, especially places
that we can agree that,you know, a funeral home, a
cemetery, a hospital, like theseplaces all kind of have a, their
(16:15):
own vibe, their own energy.
Mostly cemeteries aregonna be grief, sorrow,
a funeral home, same way.
Hospitals, you're dealing withillness and tragedy and traumas.
But for the most part, thinkof places that you're like,
yeah, that I get that, thatenergy would be that way.
And I'm talkingabout obvious things.
(16:37):
Now, be a place empath andwalk in and, you're just going
to get your morning coffeeand a biscuit or a donut or a
whatever at a certain place.
Emily (16:45):
Mm-hmm.
I like that you said biscuit.
Matty (16:47):
Yeah, definitely.
Aww, biscuits are, they shouldbe right up there with donuts.
Some good stuff.
Imagine being a place empathand rolling into a place of
business, like I'm talkingabout, you know, you're
getting your coffee and abiscuit in the morning or
whatever your routine would be.
Let's say, what are the normal,like average everyday customers
rolling through this business?
(17:07):
Because that residual energyis gonna build into this place
and it's gonna have a vibe.
If you go to let, let's sayyou like to go out dancing.
And there's a club that's knownfor bringing in live bands
and jam band music and stuff.
And you know, a differentclub that brings in like house
music and a different club thatbrings in, you know, jazz, jazz.
(17:30):
And then one for likeheavy metal, death metal.
I mean, can you imaginethe residuals of multiple
nights a week with similarbands rolling through these
different clubs, that they'renot gonna have their own
unique feel as a place empath.
You could walk in andimmediately just know
the clientele that visitsthis place, the music, the
energy, the vibes is this.
(17:50):
Any one of those places, themusic, the vibes could be
high and the, and the crowdcould be loving it, but the
vibe of the people that comethrough and stuff, it's just
starts to be part of a place.
That's all I canreally say about it.
You just, you just know,you just get a vibe.
You just got a gut checkinstinct thing, and you just
feel the vibes of places.
(18:11):
But what you're really feelingis the residual energies of
the people or the animalsor whoever, the living beans
rolling through these places.
One of the cool things aboutplace empath, because pretty
much all empathy gifts are aboutyour aura being within the auric
range of another person or ananimal or the environment or
(18:34):
the place that you're within.
But there is this unique thingabout place empathy, where you
can look at like a picture andeven just a picture of somebody
you can look into their eyesand like the eyes are kind
of the windows of the soul.
So through a picture you couldread somebody's energy, but
with the same thing with aplace, you can look at a place
(18:55):
and somehow that energy canget captured in that picture.
You may not be within an auricrange of that place, but this
picture you're looking atis within your aura and you
can pick up on the energy ofsomething you're not even in.
So kind of throughdimensions of time and space.
You can check out the vibeof something by just looking
(19:15):
at a picture and then viewingthat energy through then
and tap into it as well.
I always find that prettycool that you don't, I
don't necessarily haveto walk into that place.
I can see a pictureand just know.
Hey, you know, we're thinkingabout these three places to
go, and then we are lookingat pictures of places, and
I'll just be like that one.
Oh, that one right there.
(19:37):
That's where I wanna be.
I just know.
So I think that'sreally something cool
about place sympathy.
Is there anythingyou want to add?
I know I kind of hopped inand just kind of hogged the
space on place sympathy, but.
Emily (19:49):
Um, I guess the only thing that I would really
add about it is I feel likeyou're, this part of your
empathy really developedwhen you were working in the
Akashic Records doing past liferesearch.
It was like you were literallylike putting yourselves into
the, these different placesand you know, it really had an
effect on you and you reallywere able to sense the vibes and
(20:10):
really get a good sense of wherethe people were while you were
doing the past life research.
Would you agree with that?
Matty (20:19):
Especially combined with the physical empathy.
Sometimes I couldfeel like I was in the
physicality of another,within a past life moment.
But often the place empathy waslike being a fly on the wall.
I was just observing.
My energy was somewhere inthat room of this thing, this
(20:39):
experience, this circumstance,this situation that was
unfolding that I needed torecord for posterity and then
type up to give to our client.
You're right.
That really did kick in hardcorefor me, and between the two, I
had this sense of like what wasgoing on within them, but at
(21:00):
the same time reading the likewhole of the place, you know?
And knowing that like, ohmy God, that was a horrible
decision they had to makebecause the pressure was
from here and the energywas over there that this
is what had to happen.
I'm thinking of onescenario in general from
the Revolutionary War.
I won't dive into supertremendous aspects, but this,
(21:21):
this one soul was put into ahorrible decision to make, but
the pressure coming from thehigher ups and what they know
that they needed to happen,it wasn't morally right.
But they went and did thisanyway and created their
own karma to work off later.
But what they did actuallytipped the scales of a
(21:42):
major battle that took placein the Revolutionary War.
And how they kind of,underhanded some things, but
it, it really just made it sothe soon to be Americans came
out on top of a certain battle.
I'll leave it there.
I, I don't want to dive intothe, the horrific specifics
of it, but it was weird.
Emily (22:02):
That one really affected you.
Matty (22:03):
That I came out like crying and, and the
little traumatized for amoment before I cleared
my energy again and stuff.
But yeah, the home was crazybecause I crazy was reading
that energy and then readingtheir own, but you're right, the
doing a lot of that pastlife research, really my, my
place, empathy, like kickedinto, into a whole new level
of I, I think discernment andbeing able to work through
(22:25):
the layers of certain things,you know, and like timeframes.
Because sometimes theplace, like the vibe
changes over generations.
Where it was kind ofone way and now it's
something else and stuff.
Yeah.
Emily (22:37):
Yeah.
We definitely saw thatin Asheville for sure.
Matty (22:40):
Yeah, we did in Asheville.
Emily (22:41):
Or I mean, I'm sure you see that in any place
that you are extendedly.
So let's move on.
Yeah.
I find this next onereally interesting.
It is spiritual empathy,being a spiritual empath.
And so spiritual empathsabsorb and process other
energies spirituallythrough their crown chakra.
Spiritual empaths typicallyhave active upper chakras,
(23:05):
and they just have thisgreater understanding of
the world and other people.
And they just intuitivelyunderstand others on a
soul level by sensingthis person's like soul
level desires and values.
They just look intosomeone's eyes, 'cause that's
typically how it's activated.
(23:27):
When they look into someone'seyes, they can literally
like see their soul self.
And so this ability allowsthem to just understand how
that person experiences,like how their soul
experiences human life.
What's tricky aboutspiritual empathy is that
oftentimes you'll see thatthe spiritual empaths will be
(23:48):
in relationships with peoplebecause they are basically
wishing for their potential.
It's like they can see theirpotential, but yet that is not
exactly the human that theyare right here and right now.
And so they have trouble beingable to move on out of that
(24:10):
because they see that potential.
They see how amazingthat person soul is.
I mean, we all have reallyamazing souls and on a
soul level, we're justall so talented and so
unique and so vibrant.
But yet that human may or maynot be that way in this life.
(24:31):
And so oftentimes, you know,spiritual empaths, it's
a, it's a slippery slope.
It's tricky for them becausethey can see that potential.
They understand where thatperson could, where they
could just take off in lifeand become this amazing self.
And so oftentimes theykind of get stuck in that.
(24:53):
They get stuck in relationshipsor they have trouble
moving on because they,they see that potential.
Matty (24:59):
I couldn't have said that any better myself.
You're literally seeingthe potential and not the
reality of what they'reliving up to or not up to.
And no right or wrong,we're all on our path.
We're just experiencing life.
We're growing fromour experiences.
It's calledexperiential knowledge.
(25:20):
We're all divine energy,we're all unique aspects
of the creator herehaving a human experience.
But we're conditioned bythe human experience, and
we're not all, I mean, noone's truly fully embodying
their soul a hundred percent.
But spiritual empaths cansee what that would be like.
Emily (25:41):
Yeah, just learn to recognize, recognize
the human before you.
And try and it's noteven fair to date or love
only someone's potential.
That's not fair to them.
In order to be a relationshipwith someone, you know,
you have to try toaccept all parts of them.
Matty (26:00):
Wow, yeah, babe, that's, it is unfair.
If you're dating someone'spotential, then you're
not really dating them.
Emily (26:07):
Yeah.
Matty (26:08):
And how can they live up to that potential if
Emily (26:09):
you're dating an idea?
Matty (26:10):
If you're dating, yeah some ideal of them
versus actually dating them.
Wow.
All right, let's move on.
Emily (26:17):
Yeah.
This next one's cool.
Matty (26:19):
You should take this.
You're, yeah, youknow this well.
Emily (26:22):
So the next one is psychological empathy or
being a psychological empath.
And so a psychological empathis able to gain insight
into the minds and thoughtsand judgements of others.
And they can just energeticallyconnect with others and
perceive the inner workingsof a person's mind.
(26:44):
And so they often are verygood teachers because they
are very interested in thoughtprocesses and how people
reach specific conclusions.
And so you can see how agreat teacher, they're, you
know, they're interested,they wanna know like, what
is the best way to helpthis person get this point
(27:06):
or understand this concept.
And so they're veryinterested in the, the inner
workings, the motivations.
Just how people work,what makes them tick, like
how their brains work.
And so it's very interestingand because of this, they are
able to see and understandmany different perspectives
on many different levelsbecause they understand how
(27:29):
different people are and howdifferent their minds work.
So it's a really cool giftand it's very interesting
and I mean, it just kind ofgives you this excitement.
I mean, this is one ofmy, uh, gifts as well.
It just, I'm just so interested.
It's like, you know, I'm noteven interested in what you did.
(27:50):
I'm more interestedin why, like, what
caused you to do that?
What were you thinking orsurrounding that action
or just, you know, howdoes your mind work?
Like what makes you tick?
What, what gives you hope?
What gives you,what are your fears?
I. You know, all those coolthings about being a human.
(28:13):
I just find it very fascinating.
Matty (28:15):
I love watching you like, talk to somebody and they, they
have no idea what's coming.
And I, and I know because youjust seem to get underneath.
Emily (28:25):
Well, I don't even know what's coming, the thought
Matty (28:26):
patterns and stuff.
Well, I, I don't know what'scoming, but I, I know the
energy and how you work and.
Somebody's telling youabout something and the next
thing I know you're, I canjust see it in your mind.
And then you just askone question and then
their mind is like, oh.
And then they'll answerthat question, and then
you ask another and theyanswer it and you ask
another and they answer it.
The next thing you know,they're like, what the
(28:47):
fuck just happened?
I know exactly whereI'm headed now.
Like it's just kind ofmind boggling to watch
that unfold, you know,with friends or clients.
How you just love to get inthere and, well, if you're
saying this and you love thisand you've pointed that out
before, so blah, blah, blah,and the next thing you know
(29:07):
it's just like puzzle piecesare put together and how you
love to just get in thoseinner workings of the mind.
It's super cool.
You've helped me figureout so much in my life and
accelerated my own knowingof myself and being able to
deep dive within and no longerfeared looking under the rocks
and seeing what's there andlike what's in that shadow.
(29:27):
Let's turn that cornerwithin my own psyche.
'cause it, it can bea fun exploration.
You've showed me that.
Emily (29:32):
Yeah.
Aw, thanks babe.
Matty (29:35):
Yeah, totally.
Thank you.
So let's move on.
Emily (29:37):
Yeah.
Matty (29:38):
All right y'all, let's talk about
environmental empathy.
Environmental empaths canconnect with Mother nature
and the environment andlandscapes on a conscious level.
Environmental empathsperceive the inherent power
and consciousness of theenvironment they're within.
(29:58):
It is freaking cool to bechilling in mother nature and
not just, oh, that's pretty,that's what's going on.
But to.
Like connect consciouslywith the trees and the breeze
blowing through them and howhappy they are that the birds
s singing a song in there.
(30:19):
Or the rock, having the sunset, kiss it with its last
little bit of warmth andlike connecting consciously
with what's happening on agrand scale is beautiful.
It really can put oneself intoperspective of, yes, we are
this divine spark having a humanexperience, but we are just this
(30:42):
one little bitty human on thismassive planet called Earth.
Emily (30:46):
Yeah, magical planet.
Matty (30:48):
Like it is wild to open, oneself up to connect
with the environment thatwe are in and just be.
To consciously be us, toconsciously let nature be
nature, and then to alsojoin together and see
what energy we create.
(31:09):
By consciously being onewith nature, with what's
happening in our environment.
It is wild and beautifulexperience to allow the rocks
and the trees and the water andthe sunlight and everything else
to be its own divine creation.
(31:30):
Its own divineconsciousness, energy.
That it's not just us at thesome top of some food chain.
We're just a part of itall because we're all
born of the same energy.
We just don't always recognizethat we are a part of it.
We're just unique aspects of it.
And when you can shed thatand just be one with the
(31:54):
environment, it opens up to, Imean, for me personally, to some
really beautiful experiences.
And something else that cancome about, you know, from
true environmental empaths isthere could be trepidation or
unease that you feel long beforea natural disaster happens.
(32:16):
And that even coming inafterwards can be deeply
affected by destructionto the environment.
To rolling down the road andseeing where a forest fire
happened even years before,and it's trying to recover.
Yeah, it can reallyhit deep within that,
you know, that this,
Emily (32:36):
or like what's happening in the
rainforests or the logging.
Like all of those thingsor environments are just
being completely devastated.
So not even natural disasters,I mean human disasters as well.
Matty (32:50):
Yeah, absolutely.
And I, I mean, recently, ourold home of 20 years, this
past fall, like six months ago.
The hurricane Helene andthe floods in western North
Carolina and eastern Tennessee,but our old hometown of
Asheville and the surroundingcommunities got hit really hard.
A lot of that area did.
And yes, we talked to friendsand connected in that way, but
(33:12):
just even seeing the images ofwhat had happened and stuff was,
Emily (33:17):
it's heartbreaking.
Matty (33:19):
Yeah.
It hit deep.
On many levels.
But just connecting to theenvironment through photos
and pictures, it was, it washeartbreaking to know that,
that that had happened juston an environmental level.
Without even taking intoconsideration, you know, what
had happened on a human leveland what our friends and family
(33:42):
were going through and howlives were upended and just
on so many different levels.
But just speaking tothe environmental level.
You know, just knowing whathad happened and seeing it, it
was, it just deeply affected,is the way to put that.
Something else thatenvironmental empaths could
be experiencing is like asensitivity to changes in
(34:06):
the electromagnetic fieldsof Mother Earth and the sun.
It sends all this beautifulenergy that the earth
creates photosynthesis with.
Experiencing these differenceswithin the electromagnetic
fields, depending on the energythat's coming through, can
actually trigger emotionaland physical reactions.
(34:29):
The SolarWinds creatingdifferent magnetics and
Schumann resonances changeslike environmental empaths
are going to experience thesethings in a much grander, or,
I don't know if grander isthe right word, but just it's
going to hit them harder thansomebody that doesn't have the
gift of environmental empathy.
So if you're someone thatyou find you're sensitive
(34:51):
to, full moons, or theSchumann resonance, you know,
changing or solar flares.
And do you actually feel likeyou're emotionally or having
physical reactions to this,it could be because you're
an environmental empath.
Emily (35:06):
Yeah.
Matty (35:07):
All right.
Let's move on to our little,our little furry friends.
Emily (35:12):
Yeah.
These, uh, next three are veryinteresting because they allow
you to connect with differentand interesting things.
So the first one isa animal empathy.
And so of course this would giveyou the connection to animals.
An animal empath is able tounderstand the consciousness of
(35:36):
an animal, including its fears,its reactions, and its emotions.
It's able to just kindof tap into that animal
and know exactly.
You know what it needs,how it's feeling, how to
help it and soothe it.
And so it's very interestingand oftentimes, you know, an
(35:56):
animal empath may be connectedto just one particular species.
You know, it's really rareto be able to just understand
every single animal thatthere is, but just it gives
them this overview and thisconnection with animals.
And so of course because ofthis, you know, places where
animals experience a lot ofnegative emotions such as
(36:21):
like a slaughterhouse or thoseplaces where the chickens are
just on top of each other andyou know, they're just treated
like some sort of dollar billand not really like an animal.
You know, these can have areally negative emotional
effect on animal emapths.
Matty (36:39):
Yeah.
Commercial farming of animalsversus like free range farming
and homesteading could, I'msure an animal empath and
probably many humans justin general walking to those
two different environmentsof how animals are being
treated would have a reaction.
But as an animal empath tobe taking on the emotions of
(37:03):
the animals around you, itwould probably be very hard to
be in a, a commercial animalfarm situation or something.
I, I can imagine, animalempaths are gonna be really
sensitive to proteins they eat.
You may even naturally havegravitated towards being
vegetarian and findingprotein sources in other ways.
(37:26):
Or making sure that your proteinsources are coming from free
range farms, where the animalsgot to actually live a life.
And then in their death, theyalso became part of the food
chain for us versus beingpacked in on top of each other
and experiencing overcrowdedness or fears or anxieties as
animals and like this kind ofenergy could get passed on.
(37:48):
And an animal empath couldbe especially sensitive
to something like that.
Emily (37:52):
Yeah.
Matty (37:53):
But you know, you are also connected
with our fur friends.
Emily (37:57):
Well, not just fur.
Matty (37:58):
Well, okay.
Could be feather friends.
Could be it couldbe scaly friends,
Emily (38:02):
elephants.
It could be giraffes.
Yeah.
I guess they have alittle bit of fur.
There's so many animals andif you're an animal empath
and you are connected toone particular species.
You know, there's justso many to connect with.
It's, it's so interesting, andthis could be exactly why some
people have certain callingsto really unique animals.
(38:24):
You know, really unique speciesand be able to help them and,
and help rehabilitate themand work with them in zoos
and those types of things.
So I can imagine likean animal empath would
definitely be more drawntowards something like that.
Matty (38:41):
Oh, to some sort of rehabilitation or training or
like working in a, some sort ofzoo environment and like showing
off the magnificence of thatanimal and, and like helping to
educate other people about them.
Yeah, totally.
A hundred percentcould see that.
Emily (38:57):
Yeah, and so this next one is, you know,
similar to an animal empathexcept it's a plant empath.
So a plant empath wouldconnect with the consciousness
of certain plants or trees.
And just as the animal empathisn't necessarily connected
to all species of animals.
(39:18):
They are typically connectedto one type of plant or
tree or species and theyjust have this certain feel.
They just kind of feel intothat plant and just knows what
it needs or how to help it.
I think Matty mentioned, youknow, this would be the type
(39:40):
of person that walks into ahome and wants to like, move
around all the different plants.
Like, ooh, this one needsto be in this window, or,
Matty (39:49):
absolutely.
Emily (39:49):
I don't know.
Matty has a really goodconnection with plants.
Definitely.
I feel like I,
Matty (39:54):
this is too much light.
This one needs tobe turned this way.
That soil's too wet.
Please don't water it again.
Oh, this needs to bewatered like twice a week.
So not everything getsonce a week watering.
This one reallyneeds more liquid.
Yeah, absolutely.
I'm that person and I have tokind of bite my tongue when
I'm in someone else's home.
(40:14):
Given our life of the lastfew years and traveling and
doing some of the, like homeand pet sitting, there's often
plant care that comes with it.
And some peopleare very nervous.
Ah, you know, there's someplants that need water and
then to be taken care of.
You know, do you, do you mind?
And I'm like, sweet.
Love it.
Like fur friends and plants.
(40:36):
Cool.
Emily (40:37):
Yeah.
And we've taken care ofsome really cool plants too.
Like that place in Florida.
Matty (40:42):
Oh my God.
Emily (40:43):
With all the amazing like exotic orchids.
Matty (40:46):
There were 45 different species of plants and
most of them were orchids,just in the lanai.
Emily (40:52):
Yeah.
It was incredible.
Matty (40:53):
And then there were 20 something different orchids
hanging up in the treesunderneath the lanai and they
all had to be watered on thesedifferent schedules and stuff.
And like after thosetwo weeks I was like.
This is a lot of work, butlike this is cool I getting
to know these differentplants and feel their
energies and vibe with them.
Yeah.
Emily (41:12):
That was cool.
Yeah.
One of their orchids, likeactually bloomed while they
were away and they were
Matty (41:16):
the Samurai one.
Emily (41:17):
Oh yeah.
It was called theSamurai Orchid.
And they were so excited.
We love our puppy and ofcourse we wanna see pictures
of her, but will you please,please, please send us
pictures of the samurai orchid.
Matty (41:28):
We think it's about ready to bloom and
it might bloom for y'all.
And we're like, okay, cool.
Emily (41:32):
And it hadn't bloomed.
It's like one of those orchidsthat doesn't bloom very often.
It doesn't bloomevery year and stuff.
So I don't think they'dever seen it's bloom.
So it was pretty,pretty incredible.
But used to carry
Matty (41:41):
them with them apparently into battle.
Yeah.
Like they would, theywould take care of them
and carry them around.
It was part of, I don'tknow, part of the zen of
being a samurai or something.
I forget the genome nameof it, but I remember it
was about the samurai.
Emily (41:55):
Yeah, yeah.
You're and stuff.
Matty (41:57):
And it was, it was cool.
It was cool.
Emily (41:59):
But all their orchids were so cool.
And I mean, we were justtaking pictures left and right
'cause these exotic orchidswere just so incredible.
But Matty did amazing.
He.
I'm so grateful that he has aspecial connection with plants.
I would have to say Idefinitely connect with the
animals more than the plants.
(42:20):
But I do love being inthe vicinity and being
around them and, you know,at least giving love and
connecting with them that way.
But I may not be able to knowwhat it is that they need.
And so we have comeupon our last one.
and Matty, youshould take this one.
Matty (42:36):
It's crystal, empathy.
Crystal empaths can connectwith the consciousness of
crystals, semi-preciousstones, precious stones,
minerals, gemstones, what,whatever you want to call them.
Rocks just aren't prettythings to look at for you
if you're a crystal empath.
You actually understand thatthere is a energy, a vibe,
(42:59):
a consciousness within thesegeological formations that
have been here for hundredsof thousands of millions
of billions of years.
The history that's there,the intelligence that's
within these rocks.
The vibration, the frequency,a crystal empath is going to be
able to connect to these things.
(43:19):
As you develop this gift, you'regonna understand the messages
and the healing power by holdingthese different crystals or gems
or precious stones and havingthem within you and holding
them within your auric field.
Especially if you're alreadydoing some sort of healing
work or energy work you'regoing to become or are just
(43:42):
naturally inclined to be adeptat using these crystals and
gemstones to heal yourselfor potentially others.
You're just going to know, andwith the little research and the
little playing around, hey, ifI put this gemstone right here
on this body, or if I hold thisgemstone here and meditate for
10 minutes on this subject, itclears so much and it helps me
(44:05):
to transcend this certain issue.
You're just going to beable to naturally put
these things together.
This is the kind of thingyou'll do with crystals
and rocks and gemstones.
You'll just know by holding thisand putting this here, lay down
and this one on this chakra,and this one on that one.
And let's go over this littlebit of energy and how to shift
it because these are gonnabe here to help us shift it.
(44:28):
And are you willingto let go and move it?
Like a CrystalEmpath has this gift.
I'm not a crystal empath, butI've experienced some really
cool things with certaincrystals and gemstones that
I have a connection to.
Emily (44:42):
You don't think you have a special connection with Buddy?
Matty (44:44):
That's what I'm saying.
You're Crystal, but I don't feellike I'm a crystal empath where
I, I just connect to them all.
But that Lemurian seedquartz Crystal that I
call buddy, we be tight.
We've had some cool experiencestogether, meditating.
Emily (45:00):
Yeah, crystal's very cool.
But I'm, I'm sure crystalempathy is similar to
plant and animal empathy.
You probably connect morewith like a certain type of
crystal, don't you think?
Matty (45:12):
I absolutely agree.
I, I do think that Ipersonally connect with
quartz and amethyst.
Emily (45:18):
I mean, buddy literally called out to you and you had
to get someone to go to theback office to look for it.
Matty (45:24):
Okay, so I'm in Asheville.
I would say this is2005, 2006 timeframe.
I am living four miles.
There was a gem shop I loved.
I used to take my Beagle andI and we'd go walk around
downtown and just hang outand meet people and stuff.
I knew one day, likeI could feel this urge
(45:47):
to just go downtown andgo to Cornerstone Gems
on Lexington Ave and I did.
And I walked into that shopand I've got Lilu on a leash
and we're just looking aroundand I'm just like, okay,
something's calling to me.
And I'm all about that shopand I can't figure it out.
There's so many coolthings in that store.
There's $3 pieces and$30,000 pieces in that store.
(46:12):
Gems and crystals and fossilsand all sorts of crazy cool, you
know, dinosaur bones and stufflike wild, wildly cool store.
And I finally go up to theperson, they've asked a
couple times, you know, canI help you find anything?
I said, you know, I'vetold you I'm looking
around, but specificallysomething's calling to me.
That's why I'm inthe shop today.
And the owner wasn't there,and he and I were, could
(46:33):
strike up a conversation quick.
And we weren't friends,but we were definitely
buddies because he wasway into what he did, and that's
obviously why he had his shop.
But we would geek out together.
And I just looked at herand I was just like, there's
a crystal calling to me.
I know it's here, but Ican't find it in the store.
Do you have any crystalsabout this size?
(46:57):
I would say buddy's like 8,7, 8 inches, you know, so
I'm holding my hands out.
I'm telling this personlike, you know, maybe two to
four pounds, like somethingyou'd sit and meditate with.
Can you call Brandon if youdon't know, like he might know.
I just, it's here,but it's not out here.
And so this person gets onthe phone and they're, they're
(47:18):
calling Brandon the owner ofthe shop, and they're just
like, yeah, this guy's here.
He's nice.
He's a little weird.
He's telling me there's acrystal calling to him and he
doesn't know where it's at.
He's kind of described it, dowe have anything like, and then
she describes it and the nextthing I can hear her saying
is, oh, there, there's a box.
You just brought a few in,but you haven't put 'em out.
(47:40):
Yeah.
O okay.
And so she takes the cordlessphone and with her to the
other room in, in the back,and then she comes out with
this box and sets it down.
And she's like, okay, I'llshow him these three pieces.
Uh, okay.
Yeah.
And she hangs up and she'slike, so Brandon says this box.
And she's like, honestly,I thought I was really
weird that you were tellingme it was calling to you.
And I was trying to be aspolite as I could without
(48:02):
trying to like blow you off.
But you're literally like,are you looking for these?
And, and I just grabbed one.
I was like, oh myGod, that's it.
This is it.
This is what's calling the,and the crystal's like, yay.
As I had it in my handsand I was like, cool.
Can you call Brandonand find out how much?
So she picks up the phone andcalls brandon, gets a price.
I whip out some cash andI brought like an extra
(48:22):
50 bucks more than what hewanted for it or something.
Like, I almost nailedthe, the price that you
know is cash in my pocket.
I leave, hang out,meditate like crazy.
Brandon's outta town.
I come back in with a crystalthat I call Buddy at this
point and Lilu, the Beagle,and I'm like, dude, what's up?
And I've got Buddy in myhand and this and that and
(48:44):
I'm, we're laughing aboutthis story and I'm like,
this is what I got from you.
I was like, do you even know?
And he picks upbuddy and he goes.
No fucking way.
I would've never soldyou this crystal.
There's no way in hell do youlook at this manifestation, this
crystal, inside the crystal.
I would've neversold this to you.
And I'm like, to be fair,the manifestation didn't
appear until I took ithome and we meditated that
(49:05):
night, and then it appeared.
This phantom manifestationon the inside.
If you're a rock hound andinto quartz crystals, you'll
understand what I'm saying.
But it's basically acrystal that appears
with inside a crystal.
There's no definitionof lines or anything.
It's just looks likea ghost crystal with
inside your crystal.
Emily (49:24):
Yeah.
That's crazy.
And it like shoots rainbowsand stuff through it.
It's, it's crazy.
Matty (49:29):
And you know, he's like cussing at me in a
playful way that he would'venever sold this to me.
And I'm like, you wouldn'thave known that that was there.
It didn't come until afterwe meditated together.
But I just wanted youto see what I got.
I didn't want to createthis whole thing.
And then, you know, we hada big laugh and hugged about
it, you know, and he was like,I still got a couple other
cool things to sell people.
I'm glad you have this.
(49:50):
At least you have it,you know, Aw and stuff.
So thanks for bringing that up.
I, I do have a knackfor the quartz crystals.
Emily (49:58):
Yeah.
Especially that one.
Well, I feel like that'sa good story to end on.
Matty (50:03):
Yeah,
Emily (50:03):
it's a fun story.
Matty (50:04):
For sure.
Emily (50:05):
I like hearing it.
Matty (50:06):
So if you can't tell by what we're laying down here
with empathic abilities, thisis another great way to be
able to jive and vibe with yourenvironment and to navigate
your life in a different way.
Empower yourself tounderstand how you process
different energies.
Most of us have some sort ofempathic ability, not everybody.
(50:30):
This is why it's one of thethings that we go over in our
course Akashic Attunement (50:34):
A journey to intuitive mastery.
And if you get a souljourney Akashic reading,
we go over your strongestintuitive gifts and your
empathic abilities, because wethink it's huge to know what
your strengths are in your life.
To lean into them.
To empower yourself, toprocess and navigate your
(50:55):
world smoother and betterbecause you're more aware.
So we really wanted to dothis episode today to dive
into empathic abilities.
In case any of them arejiving with you, whether
you get a reading from usor someone else or whatever,
you might be gifted with oneof these empathy abilities.
(51:16):
Or more.
Or more, and you canknow yourself better.
Emily (51:18):
Yeah, it's just another way to understand
how your energy reactswith the rest of the world.
Matty (51:26):
Plus we get to talk about empathy and
all these cool abilities.
Emily (51:29):
Well, thanks so much for joining us everyone.
We really appreciate you,and are so grateful for our
listeners, and we just haveso much fun doing this.
Matty (51:38):
If you have any questions or want to share a cool empathy
story of your own, I'll put theemail in the show description
like I do every week.
Hit us up and let us knowwhat's going on in your world.
Until next week, take care much.
Love y'all.
Hey there, amazing souls and welcome to today's show.
Emily and I are excited tobe with you once again and we
wanted to dive into somethingthat is near and dear to us.
I know we talk a lot aboutthe Akashic records and
developing your intuition.
And especially within theAkashic Records, giving we
(00:20):
just completed our first everlive run, four days, Akashic
Attunement (00:23):
a Journey to Intuitive Mastery course.
So we're feeling reallyexcited about completing that
and just super high vibeson all the amazingness and
the deep connections that wemade with others, but that
people were facilitating withthemselves and that's the point.
(00:44):
It is for you to learn howto connect deep with yourself
and facilitate your own higherawareness of yourself, of your
perspective, of what you cameto learn and do, and to navigate
and to grow from, and to journeyin this third dimensional
realm, this beautiful earthschool that we're all upon.
(01:06):
But we wanted to deviate alittle bit because one of
the topics we covered in thatcourse, and we realized it.
It really needed someattention within our podcast,
and that's empathic gifts.
They are different thanintuition, but it is a way that
most people have some sort ofempathy ability, and it's a
way to process energy aroundus to know our environment,
(01:30):
and we just find it reallycool, vastly important to know
about, at least just to have alittle information on the gifts.
And see what jives withyou or you know, if you're
vibing with something or not.
But understand that there areways that aren't tapping into
your intuition, that you canknow more about the environment
(01:52):
and the people within yourenvironment and what's going
on and reading this energy.
There's just a plethora of waysto know more about oneself and
what's going on around you.
It doesn't have to bethe Akashic records, it
doesn't have to just beintuition development.
There are so manyother ways out there.
So we wanted to jump inand kind of get into these
empathic gifts with you today.
Emily (02:13):
Yes.
Just like Matty said, I justwanna jump back really fast
and say that we have, we are soincredibly excited and proud of
our Akashic attunement course.
It was just like a dreamcome true to put together
and it, we just had so muchfun with it and it turned
(02:33):
out even way better than Ieven imagined that it would.
So it was really excitingto, you know, seeing the
final product put togetherand just see how really
amazing this course really is.
And just a live or a lifeupdate really quickly.
We are.
Leaving on Wednesday, wellactually the day that this airs,
(02:57):
we'll be leaving, you know,day after tomorrow our precious
puppy friend Aspen that we'vebeen with for the last four
months here in Fort Collins.
So we're a little bit sadabout that, but we're gonna
be heading to close to Denverfor just two nights to hang
out with some kitty friends.
(03:18):
And so that'll be excitingto meet them and, you know,
to give them some love.
And to bring it back to now weare very excited to be talking
about these empathic gifts.
Just having this insight intoyourself, knowing your specific
gifts is very, very helpful.
A lot of them can cause youto have like some really
(03:43):
unique and kind of weirdsymptoms and just experiences.
Knowing these things aboutyourself really just kind of
helps give you that insightas to what the hell is
going on at certain times.
So I feel like it's, it'sbeen very helpful for me.
I mean, I thought that I was anemotional empath for a very long
(04:05):
time, and turned out I get my,you know, Akashic record reading
like five, six years ago now.
And sure enough, emotionalempath was definitely
one of my gifts and aswell as clairsentience.
So it even goes a little bitfurther than emotional empath.
But that is the first onewe wanna start with is
(04:26):
emotional empathy and, andbeing an emotional empath.
And that is typicallythe most common.
When people think about beingan empath, they think that.
You know, they're an emotionalempath, and while they may be
picking up on emotions, thereare these different ways to
be processing these differentexperiences and emotions.
(04:49):
And so it's very importantto kind of understand the
difference that way youkind, you do have this
awareness about yourself.
So an emotional empathliterally experiences
the emotions of others asif they were their own.
And they receive andprocess this emotional data
through their heart chakra.
So it's like they literally liketake it in through their heart
(05:12):
chakra and they're filteringthe other people's emotional
energy through their heart.
This can cause a lot ofemotional, like ups and downs.
It can definitely cause likean emotional rollercoaster
because you can be frequentlyoverwhelmed with these emotions
because you're literally liketaking them on and thinking
(05:32):
that they're your own becauseyou know your heart's beating
fast because it's literallyprocessing this emotional
energy like through it.
Matty (05:41):
And if you don't understand that you're
an emotional empath,you may think that every
emotion you feel is yours.
That's the tricky thingis to distinguish between
your own emotions andthose of other people.
That's why a lot of emotionalempaths talk about being
overwhelmed or they feelvictimized by other people's
(06:02):
emotions, like they'reforcing them on them.
It's just how youraura operates.
It just allows it inand then it allows it in
through your heart chakra.
So being able to understand youremotional empath, one empowers
you to know, okay, is this mine?
Is this someone else's?
Oh, it's someone else's.
Okay, I need to go backto, hopefully you have a
(06:24):
way to clear your energy.
It's one of the things thatwe teach in a couple different
ways, but clearing yourenergy and starting fresh,
especially before you goand after you leave an area
where you know you're gonnabe around a bunch of people.
Can get you back tosquare one with yourself.
That's the really tricky thing,is when you don't realize you're
an emotional empath and you takethis stuff on and you get this
(06:46):
rollercoaster or this overwhelmof emotions because you don't
know what's yours or what's notyours, what you're processing.
You're just processing itall so it can feel like
everything's yours, whetherit makes sense or doesn't make
sense with what you're feeling.
Emily (07:02):
Yes, that's so true and I feel like a lot of
people that identify withbeing emotional empaths know
exactly what it feels like tobe overwhelmed, overwhelmed
by other people's emotions,feeling crazy at times.
Like wondering, especially,you know, if you're living
with a lot of differentpeople, you can literally.
(07:25):
You're wonder what in the worldis going on, especially if you
are living with someone youknow, possibly like a romantic
partner, where you have likethis chaotic relationship.
And then it's like, you know,you break up and you move on and
you have this other relationshipand you're like, holy shit
I wasn't crazy all along.
(07:46):
Like this emotionalrollercoaster that I was
experiencing really was likejust the two auras coming
together and creating thisfreaking chaotic energy.
So I don't wanna likepoint the blame here and
say it's just their fault.
But there are certain peoplethat you know, you get together
and you do feel a littlecrazy sometimes, I feel like.
(08:08):
And then others, youknow, they'll help
balance out your nervoussystem a little bit more.
So it's just a very good ideato be aware of these kind of
things and the, the impact thatcertain people and the people
in they your life have on you.
Matty (08:24):
Absolutely, I think that's a good moment to move on.
Emily (08:27):
I put this one next to it because I, I feel
like it's, they're reallyinteresting and sometimes
people can think that they'revery similar when they aren't.
Matty (08:36):
Oh, totally.
Then the next one that Emily'smentioning is physical empathy.
And the thing aboutphysical empathy is that
you are experiencing withinyour own physical body.
You can be experiencingthe physical state of
others within your body.
You could be experiencingwhat would be their
(08:58):
physical state from theiremotions within your body.
So it can get a little trickybecause you're not necessarily
processing their emotionsthrough your own heart chakra.
But if they are having aphysical reaction to their
emotions within theirbody, especially if they're
(09:19):
denying it, you are goingto pick up big time on this.
And I am a physicalempath myself.
And something that cancome up is, let's say
you're out to dinner.
The server that comes up to thetable to say hello is new and
they're really anxious becausethey're new and you're just
(09:39):
chilling and you're out andyou're just having a good time.
You have no idea that they'renervous and, you know, holding
that back and they're beingfriendly as they can, but.
You know, they've got allthis anxiety and nervousness
underneath there and, youknow, maybe their, their
foot's tapping nervouslywhile they're next to you.
And the next thing you know,your knee starts tapping really
nervously and you have no idea.
(10:00):
Like you're feeling thisnervousness and you're
tapping and you can feelanxiety in your body.
And you're like, I'm outhere with like someone that
I adore and this is goofy.
And we were just gigglingand now I'm feeling anxiety
like, what's going on?
You have no ideawhat's happening.
It could be somethingthis simple like.
Emily (10:16):
Yeah, like sweaty palms and Oh, absolutely.
Like beating heart, like justracing, heart racing thoughts.
Like these types of thingscan literally like be
experienced within a physicalempaths body and it's like
literally outta nowhere.
Matty (10:32):
You're just literally picking up the physical
sensations that they'regoing through within
their physical body.
But you have no, unless you cansee that happening within them,
or they tell you and you'relike, oh yeah, I'm feeling
that within my own body too.
This can turn into, like oftenphysical empaths can pick
(10:53):
up like aches and pains andheadaches that will come and
go when you're around others.
So it can be very weird if youdon't understand that you're
a physical empath and you canpick up the physical sensations
from other people's bodies.
What's going on withinthem when you're near them?
Just like an emotional empathcan get overwhelmed processing
(11:14):
others' emotions and notunderstanding that they're
processing someone else's stuff.
The same thing can happento a physical empath.
If you don't realize,oh, you know what?
I'm a physical empath, thatback ache, that headache,
that could be someone else.
Let me just take a chill pill.
Don't make this more than it is.
Let me breathe through thisand I'll navigate and move
(11:34):
on, clear my energy andwe'll see where it's at.
Maybe it's me, maybe it's not.
But just knowing, havingawareness, and we've talked
about this a lot throughmany, many, many episodes.
That awareness in and ofitself can alleviate a lot of
overwhelm, a lot of stress, alot of trying to figure things
out because we understand,let me just take a breath.
(11:56):
Let's see where I'm at.
It could be X, y, or Z.
I don't need to blow thisoutta proportion yet.
There's no need to worry.
And physical empathyis definitely that way.
Emily (12:07):
Yeah.
So awareness and energyclearing is super important.
And just to recap a littlebit, the difference between an
emotional empath and a physicalempath is like if we take that.
The server that Matty wastalking about, the emotional
empath will feel the anxiety.
They will start to feel veryanxious and still may feel
(12:28):
the physical symptoms, butthey will literally feel the
anxiety first, whereas thephysical empath will feel
the physical symptoms first.
They'll feel the racing heart.
They'll feel the sweatypalms, they'll feel that
energy running throughthe body, like just being
unsettled, the restlessness.
(12:48):
So that is the biggestdifference between the emotional
empath and the physical empath.
And it actually kind ofreminds me of a client.
We did a Soul Journey Akashicrecord reading for her, and
she was blown away when shefound out, when she read
about being a physical empath.
And she said, you know, I,I go to church every Sunday.
(13:09):
And I wanna be a good Christianand they tell us that we should
pray for people, but like everytime I pray for people, I, I
start to just feel terrible.
It's like I feel, I actuallylike, feel what they're feeling
and I, and I look around and I'mlike, how can all these people
do this for these other people?
I don't get it.
(13:29):
And so it was just kind of thatawareness really helped her to
know, okay, this is somethingthat not everyone experiences.
You know, everyone thatprays for everyone else is
in constantly having the backache and the headache or the
symptoms of the illnesses of thepeople that they're praying for.
And so this awareness, youknow, helped her be able to
(13:52):
pray for people without feelingthat physical pain as well.
So that really helpedher and really helped
expand her mind a bit.
Matty (14:03):
Yeah, that was a super interesting case.
I'm glad you mentioned that.
That was rather cool forher to connect prayer to her
physical empathy and whatshe was doing for others.
And then to be able tostill continue to do so.
It didn't create fear, thatawareness created empowerment.
Oh, now I don't haveto take this on.
(14:23):
Now I know whereit's coming from.
Now I can separate myself fromit and still pray for their
healing, for their blessingsfor the good, you know, to help
them and their life as well.
Emily (14:34):
Yeah.
So I feel like, uh, emotionalempathy and physical
empathy are often, you know,kind of seen as similar.
Like Matty and I for thelongest time, were like,
oh yeah, we definitely havethe same empathic gifts.
But they always seemed alittle bit different because
with both of those, you wouldsay, I feel other people,
whether you're feeling thephysical symptoms or you're
(14:55):
feeling their emotions, youare still feeling other people.
And so it took us, you know,until we got our Akashic
record readings and startedworking in the Akashic records,
really understanding thedifference between those two.
And then, now we're able torecognize that about ourselves.
Matty (15:14):
Absolutely.
We really, I was gonna say,we really wanted to dive
deep with emotional empathyand physical empathy.
And, uh, we'll move a littlequicker through these next
ones, but let's jump into.
Yeah, place empathy.
Emily (15:27):
Which this is also one of Matty's gifts.
Matty (15:29):
This is one of my gifts as well.
You're sensing the, theenergy of a place of building
a home, but the energy ofliving beings that have
been within these places,over and over again.
The energy just seeps intothe walls, to the ceilings, to
the foundation, and the energybecomes a part of this place.
(15:53):
And that's the energythat you sense.
It's the energy of the peoplethat have been inhabiting
that home, that family thatlived there for 60 years.
Or the conglomeration oflet's say, especially places
that we can agree that,you know, a funeral home, a
cemetery, a hospital, like theseplaces all kind of have a, their
(16:15):
own vibe, their own energy.
Mostly cemeteries aregonna be grief, sorrow,
a funeral home, same way.
Hospitals, you're dealing withillness and tragedy and traumas.
But for the most part, thinkof places that you're like,
yeah, that I get that, thatenergy would be that way.
And I'm talkingabout obvious things.
(16:37):
Now, be a place empath andwalk in and, you're just going
to get your morning coffeeand a biscuit or a donut or a
whatever at a certain place.
Emily (16:45):
Mm-hmm.
I like that you said biscuit.
Matty (16:47):
Yeah, definitely.
Aww, biscuits are, they shouldbe right up there with donuts.
Some good stuff.
Imagine being a place empathand rolling into a place of
business, like I'm talkingabout, you know, you're
getting your coffee and abiscuit in the morning or
whatever your routine would be.
Let's say, what are the normal,like average everyday customers
rolling through this business?
(17:07):
Because that residual energyis gonna build into this place
and it's gonna have a vibe.
If you go to let, let's sayyou like to go out dancing.
And there's a club that's knownfor bringing in live bands
and jam band music and stuff.
And you know, a differentclub that brings in like house
music and a different club thatbrings in, you know, jazz, jazz.
(17:30):
And then one for likeheavy metal, death metal.
I mean, can you imaginethe residuals of multiple
nights a week with similarbands rolling through these
different clubs, that they'renot gonna have their own
unique feel as a place empath.
You could walk in andimmediately just know
the clientele that visitsthis place, the music, the
energy, the vibes is this.
(17:50):
Any one of those places, themusic, the vibes could be
high and the, and the crowdcould be loving it, but the
vibe of the people that comethrough and stuff, it's just
starts to be part of a place.
That's all I canreally say about it.
You just, you just know,you just get a vibe.
You just got a gut checkinstinct thing, and you just
feel the vibes of places.
(18:11):
But what you're really feelingis the residual energies of
the people or the animalsor whoever, the living beans
rolling through these places.
One of the cool things aboutplace empath, because pretty
much all empathy gifts are aboutyour aura being within the auric
range of another person or ananimal or the environment or
(18:34):
the place that you're within.
But there is this unique thingabout place empathy, where you
can look at like a picture andeven just a picture of somebody
you can look into their eyesand like the eyes are kind
of the windows of the soul.
So through a picture you couldread somebody's energy, but
with the same thing with aplace, you can look at a place
(18:55):
and somehow that energy canget captured in that picture.
You may not be within an auricrange of that place, but this
picture you're looking atis within your aura and you
can pick up on the energy ofsomething you're not even in.
So kind of throughdimensions of time and space.
You can check out the vibeof something by just looking
(19:15):
at a picture and then viewingthat energy through then
and tap into it as well.
I always find that prettycool that you don't, I
don't necessarily haveto walk into that place.
I can see a pictureand just know.
Hey, you know, we're thinkingabout these three places to
go, and then we are lookingat pictures of places, and
I'll just be like that one.
Oh, that one right there.
(19:37):
That's where I wanna be.
I just know.
So I think that'sreally something cool
about place sympathy.
Is there anythingyou want to add?
I know I kind of hopped inand just kind of hogged the
space on place sympathy, but.
Emily (19:49):
Um, I guess the only thing that I would really
add about it is I feel likeyou're, this part of your
empathy really developedwhen you were working in the
Akashic Records doing past liferesearch.
It was like you were literallylike putting yourselves into
the, these different placesand you know, it really had an
effect on you and you reallywere able to sense the vibes and
(20:10):
really get a good sense of wherethe people were while you were
doing the past life research.
Would you agree with that?
Matty (20:19):
Especially combined with the physical empathy.
Sometimes I couldfeel like I was in the
physicality of another,within a past life moment.
But often the place empathy waslike being a fly on the wall.
I was just observing.
My energy was somewhere inthat room of this thing, this
(20:39):
experience, this circumstance,this situation that was
unfolding that I needed torecord for posterity and then
type up to give to our client.
You're right.
That really did kick in hardcorefor me, and between the two, I
had this sense of like what wasgoing on within them, but at
(21:00):
the same time reading the likewhole of the place, you know?
And knowing that like, ohmy God, that was a horrible
decision they had to makebecause the pressure was
from here and the energywas over there that this
is what had to happen.
I'm thinking of onescenario in general from
the Revolutionary War.
I won't dive into supertremendous aspects, but this,
(21:21):
this one soul was put into ahorrible decision to make, but
the pressure coming from thehigher ups and what they know
that they needed to happen,it wasn't morally right.
But they went and did thisanyway and created their
own karma to work off later.
But what they did actuallytipped the scales of a
(21:42):
major battle that took placein the Revolutionary War.
And how they kind of,underhanded some things, but
it, it really just made it sothe soon to be Americans came
out on top of a certain battle.
I'll leave it there.
I, I don't want to dive intothe, the horrific specifics
of it, but it was weird.
Emily (22:02):
That one really affected you.
Matty (22:03):
That I came out like crying and, and the
little traumatized for amoment before I cleared
my energy again and stuff.
But yeah, the home was crazybecause I crazy was reading
that energy and then readingtheir own, but you're right, the
doing a lot of that pastlife research, really my, my
place, empathy, like kickedinto, into a whole new level
of I, I think discernment andbeing able to work through
(22:25):
the layers of certain things,you know, and like timeframes.
Because sometimes theplace, like the vibe
changes over generations.
Where it was kind ofone way and now it's
something else and stuff.
Yeah.
Emily (22:37):
Yeah.
We definitely saw thatin Asheville for sure.
Matty (22:40):
Yeah, we did in Asheville.
Emily (22:41):
Or I mean, I'm sure you see that in any place
that you are extendedly.
So let's move on.
Yeah.
I find this next onereally interesting.
It is spiritual empathy,being a spiritual empath.
And so spiritual empathsabsorb and process other
energies spirituallythrough their crown chakra.
Spiritual empaths typicallyhave active upper chakras,
(23:05):
and they just have thisgreater understanding of
the world and other people.
And they just intuitivelyunderstand others on a
soul level by sensingthis person's like soul
level desires and values.
They just look intosomeone's eyes, 'cause that's
typically how it's activated.
(23:27):
When they look into someone'seyes, they can literally
like see their soul self.
And so this ability allowsthem to just understand how
that person experiences,like how their soul
experiences human life.
What's tricky aboutspiritual empathy is that
oftentimes you'll see thatthe spiritual empaths will be
(23:48):
in relationships with peoplebecause they are basically
wishing for their potential.
It's like they can see theirpotential, but yet that is not
exactly the human that theyare right here and right now.
And so they have trouble beingable to move on out of that
(24:10):
because they see that potential.
They see how amazingthat person soul is.
I mean, we all have reallyamazing souls and on a
soul level, we're justall so talented and so
unique and so vibrant.
But yet that human may or maynot be that way in this life.
(24:31):
And so oftentimes, you know,spiritual empaths, it's
a, it's a slippery slope.
It's tricky for them becausethey can see that potential.
They understand where thatperson could, where they
could just take off in lifeand become this amazing self.
And so oftentimes theykind of get stuck in that.
(24:53):
They get stuck in relationshipsor they have trouble
moving on because they,they see that potential.
Matty (24:59):
I couldn't have said that any better myself.
You're literally seeingthe potential and not the
reality of what they'reliving up to or not up to.
And no right or wrong,we're all on our path.
We're just experiencing life.
We're growing fromour experiences.
It's calledexperiential knowledge.
(25:20):
We're all divine energy,we're all unique aspects
of the creator herehaving a human experience.
But we're conditioned bythe human experience, and
we're not all, I mean, noone's truly fully embodying
their soul a hundred percent.
But spiritual empaths cansee what that would be like.
Emily (25:41):
Yeah, just learn to recognize, recognize
the human before you.
And try and it's noteven fair to date or love
only someone's potential.
That's not fair to them.
In order to be a relationshipwith someone, you know,
you have to try toaccept all parts of them.
Matty (26:00):
Wow, yeah, babe, that's, it is unfair.
If you're dating someone'spotential, then you're
not really dating them.
Emily (26:07):
Yeah.
Matty (26:08):
And how can they live up to that potential if
Emily (26:09):
you're dating an idea?
Matty (26:10):
If you're dating, yeah some ideal of them
versus actually dating them.
Wow.
All right, let's move on.
Emily (26:17):
Yeah.
This next one's cool.
Matty (26:19):
You should take this.
You're, yeah, youknow this well.
Emily (26:22):
So the next one is psychological empathy or
being a psychological empath.
And so a psychological empathis able to gain insight
into the minds and thoughtsand judgements of others.
And they can just energeticallyconnect with others and
perceive the inner workingsof a person's mind.
(26:44):
And so they often are verygood teachers because they
are very interested in thoughtprocesses and how people
reach specific conclusions.
And so you can see how agreat teacher, they're, you
know, they're interested,they wanna know like, what
is the best way to helpthis person get this point
(27:06):
or understand this concept.
And so they're veryinterested in the, the inner
workings, the motivations.
Just how people work,what makes them tick, like
how their brains work.
And so it's very interestingand because of this, they are
able to see and understandmany different perspectives
on many different levelsbecause they understand how
(27:29):
different people are and howdifferent their minds work.
So it's a really cool giftand it's very interesting
and I mean, it just kind ofgives you this excitement.
I mean, this is one ofmy, uh, gifts as well.
It just, I'm just so interested.
It's like, you know, I'm noteven interested in what you did.
(27:50):
I'm more interestedin why, like, what
caused you to do that?
What were you thinking orsurrounding that action
or just, you know, howdoes your mind work?
Like what makes you tick?
What, what gives you hope?
What gives you,what are your fears?
I. You know, all those coolthings about being a human.
(28:13):
I just find it very fascinating.
Matty (28:15):
I love watching you like, talk to somebody and they, they
have no idea what's coming.
And I, and I know because youjust seem to get underneath.
Emily (28:25):
Well, I don't even know what's coming, the thought
Matty (28:26):
patterns and stuff.
Well, I, I don't know what'scoming, but I, I know the
energy and how you work and.
Somebody's telling youabout something and the next
thing I know you're, I canjust see it in your mind.
And then you just askone question and then
their mind is like, oh.
And then they'll answerthat question, and then
you ask another and theyanswer it and you ask
another and they answer it.
The next thing you know,they're like, what the
(28:47):
fuck just happened?
I know exactly whereI'm headed now.
Like it's just kind ofmind boggling to watch
that unfold, you know,with friends or clients.
How you just love to get inthere and, well, if you're
saying this and you love thisand you've pointed that out
before, so blah, blah, blah,and the next thing you know
(29:07):
it's just like puzzle piecesare put together and how you
love to just get in thoseinner workings of the mind.
It's super cool.
You've helped me figureout so much in my life and
accelerated my own knowingof myself and being able to
deep dive within and no longerfeared looking under the rocks
and seeing what's there andlike what's in that shadow.
(29:27):
Let's turn that cornerwithin my own psyche.
'cause it, it can bea fun exploration.
You've showed me that.
Emily (29:32):
Yeah.
Aw, thanks babe.
Matty (29:35):
Yeah, totally.
Thank you.
So let's move on.
Emily (29:37):
Yeah.
Matty (29:38):
All right y'all, let's talk about
environmental empathy.
Environmental empaths canconnect with Mother nature
and the environment andlandscapes on a conscious level.
Environmental empathsperceive the inherent power
and consciousness of theenvironment they're within.
(29:58):
It is freaking cool to bechilling in mother nature and
not just, oh, that's pretty,that's what's going on.
But to.
Like connect consciouslywith the trees and the breeze
blowing through them and howhappy they are that the birds
s singing a song in there.
(30:19):
Or the rock, having the sunset, kiss it with its last
little bit of warmth andlike connecting consciously
with what's happening on agrand scale is beautiful.
It really can put oneself intoperspective of, yes, we are
this divine spark having a humanexperience, but we are just this
(30:42):
one little bitty human on thismassive planet called Earth.
Emily (30:46):
Yeah, magical planet.
Matty (30:48):
Like it is wild to open, oneself up to connect
with the environment thatwe are in and just be.
To consciously be us, toconsciously let nature be
nature, and then to alsojoin together and see
what energy we create.
(31:09):
By consciously being onewith nature, with what's
happening in our environment.
It is wild and beautifulexperience to allow the rocks
and the trees and the water andthe sunlight and everything else
to be its own divine creation.
(31:30):
Its own divineconsciousness, energy.
That it's not just us at thesome top of some food chain.
We're just a part of itall because we're all
born of the same energy.
We just don't always recognizethat we are a part of it.
We're just unique aspects of it.
And when you can shed thatand just be one with the
(31:54):
environment, it opens up to, Imean, for me personally, to some
really beautiful experiences.
And something else that cancome about, you know, from
true environmental empaths isthere could be trepidation or
unease that you feel long beforea natural disaster happens.
(32:16):
And that even coming inafterwards can be deeply
affected by destructionto the environment.
To rolling down the road andseeing where a forest fire
happened even years before,and it's trying to recover.
Yeah, it can reallyhit deep within that,
you know, that this,
Emily (32:36):
or like what's happening in the
rainforests or the logging.
Like all of those thingsor environments are just
being completely devastated.
So not even natural disasters,I mean human disasters as well.
Matty (32:50):
Yeah, absolutely.
And I, I mean, recently, ourold home of 20 years, this
past fall, like six months ago.
The hurricane Helene andthe floods in western North
Carolina and eastern Tennessee,but our old hometown of
Asheville and the surroundingcommunities got hit really hard.
A lot of that area did.
And yes, we talked to friendsand connected in that way, but
(33:12):
just even seeing the images ofwhat had happened and stuff was,
Emily (33:17):
it's heartbreaking.
Matty (33:19):
Yeah.
It hit deep.
On many levels.
But just connecting to theenvironment through photos
and pictures, it was, it washeartbreaking to know that,
that that had happened juston an environmental level.
Without even taking intoconsideration, you know, what
had happened on a human leveland what our friends and family
(33:42):
were going through and howlives were upended and just
on so many different levels.
But just speaking tothe environmental level.
You know, just knowing whathad happened and seeing it, it
was, it just deeply affected,is the way to put that.
Something else thatenvironmental empaths could
be experiencing is like asensitivity to changes in
(34:06):
the electromagnetic fieldsof Mother Earth and the sun.
It sends all this beautifulenergy that the earth
creates photosynthesis with.
Experiencing these differenceswithin the electromagnetic
fields, depending on the energythat's coming through, can
actually trigger emotionaland physical reactions.
(34:29):
The SolarWinds creatingdifferent magnetics and
Schumann resonances changeslike environmental empaths
are going to experience thesethings in a much grander, or,
I don't know if grander isthe right word, but just it's
going to hit them harder thansomebody that doesn't have the
gift of environmental empathy.
So if you're someone thatyou find you're sensitive
(34:51):
to, full moons, or theSchumann resonance, you know,
changing or solar flares.
And do you actually feel likeyou're emotionally or having
physical reactions to this,it could be because you're
an environmental empath.
Emily (35:06):
Yeah.
Matty (35:07):
All right.
Let's move on to our little,our little furry friends.
Emily (35:12):
Yeah.
These, uh, next three are veryinteresting because they allow
you to connect with differentand interesting things.
So the first one isa animal empathy.
And so of course this would giveyou the connection to animals.
An animal empath is able tounderstand the consciousness of
(35:36):
an animal, including its fears,its reactions, and its emotions.
It's able to just kindof tap into that animal
and know exactly.
You know what it needs,how it's feeling, how to
help it and soothe it.
And so it's very interestingand oftentimes, you know, an
(35:56):
animal empath may be connectedto just one particular species.
You know, it's really rareto be able to just understand
every single animal thatthere is, but just it gives
them this overview and thisconnection with animals.
And so of course because ofthis, you know, places where
animals experience a lot ofnegative emotions such as
(36:21):
like a slaughterhouse or thoseplaces where the chickens are
just on top of each other andyou know, they're just treated
like some sort of dollar billand not really like an animal.
You know, these can have areally negative emotional
effect on animal emapths.
Matty (36:39):
Yeah.
Commercial farming of animalsversus like free range farming
and homesteading could, I'msure an animal empath and
probably many humans justin general walking to those
two different environmentsof how animals are being
treated would have a reaction.
But as an animal empath tobe taking on the emotions of
(37:03):
the animals around you, itwould probably be very hard to
be in a, a commercial animalfarm situation or something.
I, I can imagine, animalempaths are gonna be really
sensitive to proteins they eat.
You may even naturally havegravitated towards being
vegetarian and findingprotein sources in other ways.
(37:26):
Or making sure that your proteinsources are coming from free
range farms, where the animalsgot to actually live a life.
And then in their death, theyalso became part of the food
chain for us versus beingpacked in on top of each other
and experiencing overcrowdedness or fears or anxieties as
animals and like this kind ofenergy could get passed on.
(37:48):
And an animal empath couldbe especially sensitive
to something like that.
Emily (37:52):
Yeah.
Matty (37:53):
But you know, you are also connected
with our fur friends.
Emily (37:57):
Well, not just fur.
Matty (37:58):
Well, okay.
Could be feather friends.
Could be it couldbe scaly friends,
Emily (38:02):
elephants.
It could be giraffes.
Yeah.
I guess they have alittle bit of fur.
There's so many animals andif you're an animal empath
and you are connected toone particular species.
You know, there's justso many to connect with.
It's, it's so interesting, andthis could be exactly why some
people have certain callingsto really unique animals.
(38:24):
You know, really unique speciesand be able to help them and,
and help rehabilitate themand work with them in zoos
and those types of things.
So I can imagine likean animal empath would
definitely be more drawntowards something like that.
Matty (38:41):
Oh, to some sort of rehabilitation or training or
like working in a, some sort ofzoo environment and like showing
off the magnificence of thatanimal and, and like helping to
educate other people about them.
Yeah, totally.
A hundred percentcould see that.
Emily (38:57):
Yeah, and so this next one is, you know,
similar to an animal empathexcept it's a plant empath.
So a plant empath wouldconnect with the consciousness
of certain plants or trees.
And just as the animal empathisn't necessarily connected
to all species of animals.
(39:18):
They are typically connectedto one type of plant or
tree or species and theyjust have this certain feel.
They just kind of feel intothat plant and just knows what
it needs or how to help it.
I think Matty mentioned, youknow, this would be the type
(39:40):
of person that walks into ahome and wants to like, move
around all the different plants.
Like, ooh, this one needsto be in this window, or,
Matty (39:49):
absolutely.
Emily (39:49):
I don't know.
Matty has a really goodconnection with plants.
Definitely.
I feel like I,
Matty (39:54):
this is too much light.
This one needs tobe turned this way.
That soil's too wet.
Please don't water it again.
Oh, this needs to bewatered like twice a week.
So not everything getsonce a week watering.
This one reallyneeds more liquid.
Yeah, absolutely.
I'm that person and I have tokind of bite my tongue when
I'm in someone else's home.
(40:14):
Given our life of the lastfew years and traveling and
doing some of the, like homeand pet sitting, there's often
plant care that comes with it.
And some peopleare very nervous.
Ah, you know, there's someplants that need water and
then to be taken care of.
You know, do you, do you mind?
And I'm like, sweet.
Love it.
Like fur friends and plants.
(40:36):
Cool.
Emily (40:37):
Yeah.
And we've taken care ofsome really cool plants too.
Like that place in Florida.
Matty (40:42):
Oh my God.
Emily (40:43):
With all the amazing like exotic orchids.
Matty (40:46):
There were 45 different species of plants and
most of them were orchids,just in the lanai.
Emily (40:52):
Yeah.
It was incredible.
Matty (40:53):
And then there were 20 something different orchids
hanging up in the treesunderneath the lanai and they
all had to be watered on thesedifferent schedules and stuff.
And like after thosetwo weeks I was like.
This is a lot of work, butlike this is cool I getting
to know these differentplants and feel their
energies and vibe with them.
Yeah.
Emily (41:12):
That was cool.
Yeah.
One of their orchids, likeactually bloomed while they
were away and they were
Matty (41:16):
the Samurai one.
Emily (41:17):
Oh yeah.
It was called theSamurai Orchid.
And they were so excited.
We love our puppy and ofcourse we wanna see pictures
of her, but will you please,please, please send us
pictures of the samurai orchid.
Matty (41:28):
We think it's about ready to bloom and
it might bloom for y'all.
And we're like, okay, cool.
Emily (41:32):
And it hadn't bloomed.
It's like one of those orchidsthat doesn't bloom very often.
It doesn't bloomevery year and stuff.
So I don't think they'dever seen it's bloom.
So it was pretty,pretty incredible.
But used to carry
Matty (41:41):
them with them apparently into battle.
Yeah.
Like they would, theywould take care of them
and carry them around.
It was part of, I don'tknow, part of the zen of
being a samurai or something.
I forget the genome nameof it, but I remember it
was about the samurai.
Emily (41:55):
Yeah, yeah.
You're and stuff.
Matty (41:57):
And it was, it was cool.
It was cool.
Emily (41:59):
But all their orchids were so cool.
And I mean, we were justtaking pictures left and right
'cause these exotic orchidswere just so incredible.
But Matty did amazing.
He.
I'm so grateful that he has aspecial connection with plants.
I would have to say Idefinitely connect with the
animals more than the plants.
(42:20):
But I do love being inthe vicinity and being
around them and, you know,at least giving love and
connecting with them that way.
But I may not be able to knowwhat it is that they need.
And so we have comeupon our last one.
and Matty, youshould take this one.
Matty (42:36):
It's crystal, empathy.
Crystal empaths can connectwith the consciousness of
crystals, semi-preciousstones, precious stones,
minerals, gemstones, what,whatever you want to call them.
Rocks just aren't prettythings to look at for you
if you're a crystal empath.
You actually understand thatthere is a energy, a vibe,
(42:59):
a consciousness within thesegeological formations that
have been here for hundredsof thousands of millions
of billions of years.
The history that's there,the intelligence that's
within these rocks.
The vibration, the frequency,a crystal empath is going to be
able to connect to these things.
(43:19):
As you develop this gift, you'regonna understand the messages
and the healing power by holdingthese different crystals or gems
or precious stones and havingthem within you and holding
them within your auric field.
Especially if you're alreadydoing some sort of healing
work or energy work you'regoing to become or are just
(43:42):
naturally inclined to be adeptat using these crystals and
gemstones to heal yourselfor potentially others.
You're just going to know, andwith the little research and the
little playing around, hey, ifI put this gemstone right here
on this body, or if I hold thisgemstone here and meditate for
10 minutes on this subject, itclears so much and it helps me
(44:05):
to transcend this certain issue.
You're just going to beable to naturally put
these things together.
This is the kind of thingyou'll do with crystals
and rocks and gemstones.
You'll just know by holding thisand putting this here, lay down
and this one on this chakra,and this one on that one.
And let's go over this littlebit of energy and how to shift
it because these are gonnabe here to help us shift it.
(44:28):
And are you willingto let go and move it?
Like a CrystalEmpath has this gift.
I'm not a crystal empath, butI've experienced some really
cool things with certaincrystals and gemstones that
I have a connection to.
Emily (44:42):
You don't think you have a special connection with Buddy?
Matty (44:44):
That's what I'm saying.
You're Crystal, but I don't feellike I'm a crystal empath where
I, I just connect to them all.
But that Lemurian seedquartz Crystal that I
call buddy, we be tight.
We've had some cool experiencestogether, meditating.
Emily (45:00):
Yeah, crystal's very cool.
But I'm, I'm sure crystalempathy is similar to
plant and animal empathy.
You probably connect morewith like a certain type of
crystal, don't you think?
Matty (45:12):
I absolutely agree.
I, I do think that Ipersonally connect with
quartz and amethyst.
Emily (45:18):
I mean, buddy literally called out to you and you had
to get someone to go to theback office to look for it.
Matty (45:24):
Okay, so I'm in Asheville.
I would say this is2005, 2006 timeframe.
I am living four miles.
There was a gem shop I loved.
I used to take my Beagle andI and we'd go walk around
downtown and just hang outand meet people and stuff.
I knew one day, likeI could feel this urge
(45:47):
to just go downtown andgo to Cornerstone Gems
on Lexington Ave and I did.
And I walked into that shopand I've got Lilu on a leash
and we're just looking aroundand I'm just like, okay,
something's calling to me.
And I'm all about that shopand I can't figure it out.
There's so many coolthings in that store.
There's $3 pieces and$30,000 pieces in that store.
(46:12):
Gems and crystals and fossilsand all sorts of crazy cool, you
know, dinosaur bones and stufflike wild, wildly cool store.
And I finally go up to theperson, they've asked a
couple times, you know, canI help you find anything?
I said, you know, I'vetold you I'm looking
around, but specificallysomething's calling to me.
That's why I'm inthe shop today.
And the owner wasn't there,and he and I were, could
(46:33):
strike up a conversation quick.
And we weren't friends,but we were definitely
buddies because he wasway into what he did, and that's
obviously why he had his shop.
But we would geek out together.
And I just looked at herand I was just like, there's
a crystal calling to me.
I know it's here, but Ican't find it in the store.
Do you have any crystalsabout this size?
(46:57):
I would say buddy's like 8,7, 8 inches, you know, so
I'm holding my hands out.
I'm telling this personlike, you know, maybe two to
four pounds, like somethingyou'd sit and meditate with.
Can you call Brandon if youdon't know, like he might know.
I just, it's here,but it's not out here.
And so this person gets onthe phone and they're, they're
(47:18):
calling Brandon the owner ofthe shop, and they're just
like, yeah, this guy's here.
He's nice.
He's a little weird.
He's telling me there's acrystal calling to him and he
doesn't know where it's at.
He's kind of described it, dowe have anything like, and then
she describes it and the nextthing I can hear her saying
is, oh, there, there's a box.
You just brought a few in,but you haven't put 'em out.
(47:40):
Yeah.
O okay.
And so she takes the cordlessphone and with her to the
other room in, in the back,and then she comes out with
this box and sets it down.
And she's like, okay, I'llshow him these three pieces.
Uh, okay.
Yeah.
And she hangs up and she'slike, so Brandon says this box.
And she's like, honestly,I thought I was really
weird that you were tellingme it was calling to you.
And I was trying to be aspolite as I could without
(48:02):
trying to like blow you off.
But you're literally like,are you looking for these?
And, and I just grabbed one.
I was like, oh myGod, that's it.
This is it.
This is what's calling the,and the crystal's like, yay.
As I had it in my handsand I was like, cool.
Can you call Brandonand find out how much?
So she picks up the phone andcalls brandon, gets a price.
I whip out some cash andI brought like an extra
(48:22):
50 bucks more than what hewanted for it or something.
Like, I almost nailedthe, the price that you
know is cash in my pocket.
I leave, hang out,meditate like crazy.
Brandon's outta town.
I come back in with a crystalthat I call Buddy at this
point and Lilu, the Beagle,and I'm like, dude, what's up?
And I've got Buddy in myhand and this and that and
(48:44):
I'm, we're laughing aboutthis story and I'm like,
this is what I got from you.
I was like, do you even know?
And he picks upbuddy and he goes.
No fucking way.
I would've never soldyou this crystal.
There's no way in hell do youlook at this manifestation, this
crystal, inside the crystal.
I would've neversold this to you.
And I'm like, to be fair,the manifestation didn't
appear until I took ithome and we meditated that
(49:05):
night, and then it appeared.
This phantom manifestationon the inside.
If you're a rock hound andinto quartz crystals, you'll
understand what I'm saying.
But it's basically acrystal that appears
with inside a crystal.
There's no definitionof lines or anything.
It's just looks likea ghost crystal with
inside your crystal.
Emily (49:24):
Yeah.
That's crazy.
And it like shoots rainbowsand stuff through it.
It's, it's crazy.
Matty (49:29):
And you know, he's like cussing at me in a
playful way that he would'venever sold this to me.
And I'm like, you wouldn'thave known that that was there.
It didn't come until afterwe meditated together.
But I just wanted youto see what I got.
I didn't want to createthis whole thing.
And then, you know, we hada big laugh and hugged about
it, you know, and he was like,I still got a couple other
cool things to sell people.
I'm glad you have this.
(49:50):
At least you have it,you know, Aw and stuff.
So thanks for bringing that up.
I, I do have a knackfor the quartz crystals.
Emily (49:58):
Yeah.
Especially that one.
Well, I feel like that'sa good story to end on.
Matty (50:03):
Yeah,
Emily (50:03):
it's a fun story.
Matty (50:04):
For sure.
Emily (50:05):
I like hearing it.
Matty (50:06):
So if you can't tell by what we're laying down here
with empathic abilities, thisis another great way to be
able to jive and vibe with yourenvironment and to navigate
your life in a different way.
Empower yourself tounderstand how you process
different energies.
Most of us have some sort ofempathic ability, not everybody.
(50:30):
This is why it's one of thethings that we go over in our
course Akashic Attunement (50:34):
A journey to intuitive mastery.
And if you get a souljourney Akashic reading,
we go over your strongestintuitive gifts and your
empathic abilities, because wethink it's huge to know what
your strengths are in your life.
To lean into them.
To empower yourself, toprocess and navigate your
(50:55):
world smoother and betterbecause you're more aware.
So we really wanted to dothis episode today to dive
into empathic abilities.
In case any of them arejiving with you, whether
you get a reading from usor someone else or whatever,
you might be gifted with oneof these empathy abilities.
(51:16):
Or more.
Or more, and you canknow yourself better.
Emily (51:18):
Yeah, it's just another way to understand
how your energy reactswith the rest of the world.
Matty (51:26):
Plus we get to talk about empathy and
all these cool abilities.
Emily (51:29):
Well, thanks so much for joining us everyone.
We really appreciate you,and are so grateful for our
listeners, and we just haveso much fun doing this.
Matty (51:38):
If you have any questions or want to share a cool empathy
story of your own, I'll put theemail in the show description
like I do every week.
