Quiz: Are You An Empath?

Does spending time in nature relax and recharge you?

Do your friends often unload their problems onto you?

Do you find yourself "feeling" other people's emotions?

Do you hate watching violence in TV and movies?

Do you find yourself deflated around certain people?

Are you you extra-sensitive to any of the five senses?

Do you consider yourself to be an introvert?

Do you become overwhelmed in close relationships?

Do you consider yourself to have an "addictive personality?"

Are you into holistic or spiritual healing?

Yup, you nailed this quiz! You definitely sound like an empath: you're highly sensitive in nature, extremely creative, and you absorb other people's emotions (knowingly or unknowingly). You're extremely in tune with the emotions of those around you, which can be either wonderful or a LOT. Make sure to arm yourself with rituals to keep your energy up and separate, otherwise you might be absorbing their vibes (bad or good). Remember that this is a blessing and a practical super power, so once you hone your craft you'll be indestructible! Make sure to take plenty time to rest, recover, and recuperate.

You are definitely an empath

You answered a lot of questions the way a true empath would! You're probably a very creative person who daydreams often and doesn't have time for the things in life that don't fulfill your soul. You likely feel recharged by being alone, playing with animals, or from being outside in nature. Beware of those who leech onto your energy or try to dump their problems onto you, and make sure to practice plenty of self care.

You're probably an empath

Sure, you have a few things in common with empaths, but it's really not your way. You've either got a big wall built up around your emotions, or you're so next-level that you don't even notice when emotions get high.
