Hi everyone,

I’ve recorded a little video about coronavirus, which goes into:

• The spiritual meaning behind this pandemic, according to the Akashic Record Spirit Guides
• How you can access some useful info on managing energetic sensitivity in the midst of all the difficult energies flying around at the moment.

(If you’re not interested in the empath stuff & just want to skip to the channelled info regarding coronavirus, you’ll find that info 6:30 minutes into the video.)

• Alternatively, read the video transcript below.
• And you can download a free copy of my book, The Empath’s Toolkit here.

Sorry, the free book offer has now expired.

First of all, I hope that you’re all keeping well and that if you’re self-isolating, that you’re not feeling too bored or constricted at the moment. Personally, I’ve gone into self-isolation as of this week, mainly because I’m asthmatic and I get quite bad post-viral asthma. 

So I’m taking it quite seriously and working from home at the moment. But I work from home anyway, so it isn’t too much of a change for me. 

I just wanted to talk a little bit about empaths and what is going on in the world at the moment for all of us and the impact on empaths. If you follow my work, you know that I talk a lot about empaths. I’ve written a book for empaths. (It’s called The Empath’s Toolkit.) 

One of the things that I believe about empaths is that we have a mirror neuron system that is somewhat overactive, compared to other people. That’s my theory about it. The mirror neuron system is the aspect of your brain which sort of feels what other people feel, to put it quite crudely. 

So for most people, emotions can be contagious anyway, so if we’re around people who are panicked or anxious, then we start to feel panicked or anxious. When you’re an empath, this effect in humans, of sort of taking your cue from other people, is amplified. You pick up on other people’s emotions much more readily than non-empaths would, and they can affect you more severely. 

So, as an empath, when you are picking up on people’s emotions in this way, it can leave a trace energetically in your own energy field. This is what leads to empaths feeling quite burdened energetically.  

In my book, ‘The Empath’s Toolkit’, I actually break this down into a few different types of negative energy that I’ve come across in empaths’ people’s energy fields…

One of the types of energies I often come across is something called ‘emotional residues’. An emotional residue is essentially the energetic residue of emotional energy that we pick up from other people and it can stick with us as empaths. 

For example, if you’re in the grocery store and you’re surrounded by people who seem bewildered or panicked or anxious and they’re kind of grabbing everything, that energy can leave a trace in your energy field as an emotional residue. 

It’s good to clear out these emotional residues. I talk about this more in my book and I give instructions for clearing out your energy field. As an empath, I do that on a regular basis pretty much daily, especially at the moment. So that’s something I recommend for empaths. 

There’s another type of energy for empaths to be aware of and this is something called the ‘psychic tie’…

A psychic tie is like a tiny telepathic tie between us and another person. 

These psychic ties are not energetic cords. (We think of energetic cords as being these large and negative attachments that can exist between two people.) But a psychic tie is actually a small attachment that forms between you and somebody that you’ve interacted with, even in a superficial way during your day. 

So it could be somebody at the checkout when you’re getting your shopping. It could be somebody that you read about on the internet. It could be the person who reads the news when you’re watching the news. 

It doesn’t necessarily have to be a significant relationship. It’s just an energetic reflection of the interactions between us all. Most people tend to rack up a lot of these tiny psychic ties and they look like very thin energetic ties between us. 

When you’re an empath and you have a lot of these psychic ties, it can actually lead to you feeling quite burdened on the energetic level. So that’s another thing that I recommend that you clear, preferably on a daily basis as an empath. That’s something I go into in chapter one of my book as well. 

What I’m leading up to with this is: for the next 48 hours my book is $0.99 on Amazon. (UPDATE: I have decided to make my book, the Empath’s Toolkit, free for 48 hours instead! And this promotion ends on March 27th at 12am PST.)

So if you’re an empath who feels quite burdened or anxious at the moment, just know that that is completely normal. I think that a lot of people are feeling that way. I’m not promising that these exercises are going to completely remove all your anxiety, but I do think that they can help you to feel less burdened and less overwhelmed. 

And then finally, I just wanted to share some information about this pandemic in general that I picked up on when I did a reading for somebody. 

Sometimes when I do readings and I go into the Akashic Records (I do Akashic Record Readings), Spirit gives me information about my life. And sometimes, well they can give information about things that are going on in the world in general. 

I just wanted to share a little bit of information about what I was given about the overall meaning of what’s happening right now, or the purpose, or even a side effect of what’s happening. 

So the first thing that Spirit said (and this is unprompted – I didn’t even ask, but probably because it’s been on my mind an awful lot…), they said that lots of people in the world need to change their day to day habits, their personal habits, into something that is healthier and more sustainable for them. 

So that could be that your health habits are not sustainable. Your work habits are not sustainable. (When I say “your”, I don’t necessarily mean you, who’s watching, but our habits – people in the world.) They’re not sustainable. I’m thinking in terms of perhaps consumerism. Maybe in terms of environmental issues like climate change. 

But also for the individual. I got the sense that Spirit was telling me that our habits are not sustainable for ourselves. That we’re not getting enough time with loved ones. That our health is suffering. That sort of thing. 

There’s a lot of people in the world who are on a path that is not good for them. And this event is a pivotal event for a lot of people. It will take them off one path that is no longer working for them, force them off a path that’s no longer working for them and put them on a different path. 

And I don’t know whether that is the purpose of this pandemic or whether it’s a happy side effect of this pandemic. Spirit was not specific about that. I suppose how you think about it depends on whether you believe that these events are fated or not. 

Personally, I do tend to believe that big events like this are somewhat pre-organized, but it’s up to you, what you think about that. 

I also get the sense that the self-isolation that many people are going to be engaging in is something that will give people the space to get off the path that they’re on and get onto a different path.

So it’s not just about being forced off a path onto another one. It’s about having that time and that space, for some people, to reflect on where they are right now and whether it’s working for them. 

And that’s something that’s happening en masse. 

And then secondly, Spirit told me that, and this is a little bit dark, Spirit told me that some souls have soul contracts to leave this planet en masse. So lots of souls are leaving together. 

It feels like a case of souls saying, “Stop. Stop the planet. I want to get off.” And sort of saying that en masse. 

And I’m not saying that this is something that’s happening consciously with people passing away from this virus. But on the soul level, it’s something that certain souls are choosing to do – leaving this planet. And choosing to do together, for some reason. 

So that’s the second thing that Spirit told me. 

The third thing that Spirit passed on is that we as a people, as a society, we are anchoring in the energetic quality of unity during this time, so a greater focus on community. 

If you look at that word ‘community’, there’s that word ‘unity’ within it. So, we have been very globalized as a society and during this pandemic, we’re obviously going to be focusing on the local. We can’t move around so freely. And we have to depend on one another more. 

So that’s how we’re going to anchor in this energy of unity.

Spirit told me that we need that energetic quality to prepare for other events that will come in years to come. 

I don’t want to scare you when I say that. I don’t kind of get this sense that Spirit is saying that this is going to be a regular occurrence, this is going to happen a lot from now on, or anything like that. But for some reason, anchoring in this energetic quality of unity is important at this time. 

So that’s what Spirit passed on to me and I just wanted to pass it on to you in case it was of interest or relevant to anybody reading this.

I hope that you stay well and not just physically but also mentally, because I know that isolating ourselves can definitely take a toll.
