You can feel the energy come through the book
I love having her work in written form (I listen to a lot of her podcasts) I feel like her take on energy & boundaries is more grounded than many other sources. Wendy feels like a sincere, caring soul & you can feel that vibe come through her work, including this book.

A Gift of a Book for Highly Sensitive People in Chaotic Times
As a person on the high sensitivity spectrum who has been trying to heal chronic fatigue and pain issues for years, this book has been extremely valuable for me. In it Wendy De Rosa writes with compassion and clarity on really complex issues which commonly affect people with high sensitivity and high empathy. She writes with genuineness, warmth and humility. In the book she teaches you to understand your energy dynamics, be patient with your healing process, and nurture yourself. Her teaching leads you in the direction of living a more empowered, intuitive, purpose-filled life, with greater strength and clarity to be of service in the world while not depleting your own energy resources.I find this book very helpful as a person who has diligently tried just about everything available medically for my diagnoses and a lot of alternative and energy-based approaches too, with limited or only short-term improvements for the effort I've invested. Wendy's book explains underlying dynamics that keep some people with high empathy stuck in repeat patterns of health challenges. In the book she describes how these patterns happen in the first place and how to break patterns and release energy blocks that may have held them in place. And her book encourages you to have confidence in your innate ability to heal your body and grow spiritually.Wendy explains all this specifically within the context of the turbulent and rapidly changing times we are living in. She does so in a way that is --- while not sugar-coating at all where we are at and what challenges the world is going through --- hopeful, nurturing, and inspiring. She gives very helpful guidance on how energy-sensitive people can protect their energy in these times and avoid absorbing chaotic, unbalancing energy from others.Wendy goes into great detail in the book about our chakra systems. I've heard and read plenty about the chakras before, but the way Wendy explains it is simpler, clearer and more resonant for me than anything I've learned elsewhere. After reading this book I realize that balancing the chakra system is more important to health, well-being, and life balance than I had previously understood. And I understand much better what I can do about it. The online meditation recordings she includes with the book purchase I have found to be quite helpful for working on this.This is not a read-once-and-done kind of book. While it is not long, there is so much information in every chapter. It bears savoring and revisiting. I'm sure as I reread it different information will stand out for me depending on what I'm experiencing at the time.

The first book I have read that actually helps empaths
This is the first book on being an empath that can actualle provide ways to help you. Not just cope. But heal and empower you. All the meditations in the book are available on her webpage, for free, for those who purchace the book. Just these are worth the purchase. Very helpful book.

This book is an inspirational and practical gem.
This is such a helpful, useful, and most interesting book, one I feel grateful to own. I love the clear and efficient way this well-written wealth of wisdom and information is arranged, and so it will remain a treasured reference book for me. In addition to recommending it to anyone who is interested in the subject of the human body's energetic system (a subject I find fascinating), I also recommend it to anyone who is empathic, highly sensitive, and/or intuitive, or who knows and cares about someone who seems to fit one or more of these descriptions. What a loving gift this treasure will be for so many, whether it is to be a gift for one's self or a loved one. This book is helping me to understand and continue to develop certain aspects of myself - such as my intuition- that I am interested in exploring as much as possible. On this book's cover we see a promise to teach us how to clear energy, set boundaries, and embody our intuition, and that is exactly what the book accomplishes, and in such a kind and encouraging way. I love everything about this book, and I especially love the rich guided meditations and the deep-dive journaling excercises. I find this book to be a compassionate and timely gift to the world.

Tremendous Personal Progress
Highly recommend this book for any empath who feels empty and drained. Wendy takes you step by step through several ideas and exercises to help you set energetic boundaries, clear out stagnant energy and old wounds, and create a solid foundation for healing and moving forward. Many times I was surprised by what was uncovered and released. Even my husband has noticed a tremendous positive difference. I bought the audio book first then the print book after I was a few chapters in. When I really want to internalize something I do both text and audio. Happy with both formats from a production stand point. Content and process is invaluable in my opinion.

Highly recommend this book
I preordered this book before it was even available. When I received it, I read it immediately. Then I read it again, and again. Each time I had new profound shifts in my understanding of myself and my place in the world. I can't praise Wendy DeRosa enough for her work to help all people, especially empaths, become the healthy and powerful intuitive beings they are meant to be, so they can become positive change in this world that needs them so desperately.Like her others, this book is a precious tool to be read and reread. The guided meditations prompt deep personal healing and transformation. The teachings are full of compassion and wisdom, taught with experience, from the heart. Thank you Wendy, for another gem!

Information suitable for a beginner
I didn’t learn anything new in this book. I also found the suggestions for grounding to be elementary and something you could find on Google. If one has no information on what an Empath is, perhaps this book might be helpful.For me, I found it to be boring and uninspiring

Understanding empathy and sensitivity
I first came across Wendy De Rosa's work after listening to a podcast interview she did with Lee Harris. Wow! I wish I had come across this work many years ago when I was feeling lost and trying to understand why I felt different from people around me. I did not understand then that I was sensitive and felt other people's emotions deeply and took these on as my own. Although I have read other books on the subject Wendy in my opinion breaks explains the subject in greater detial.Understanding our chakras is key to healing and creating healthy boundaries so that we can embrace our sensitivity. The book has questions at the end of each chapter that allows the reader to reflect and journal. There are also meditations offered.This is not a book you read once and put back on the shelf - it is one to keep revisiting so that you can get a different perspective and learn something new.I would recommend this book if you want to understand what being an empath is and or looking to understand why other people's energy affects you.

A truly empowering book
Since coming across Wendy’s work in 2019, I have taken several of her courses and eagerly pre-ordered Becoming an Empowered Empath. This book is so timely, and much needed for anyone who finds that they don’t quite have a full grasp on their energy, and personal presence, yet knows that they have so much to give. The book will help you navigate all kinds of practical situations, yet it does so from the energetic standpoint. It is a rooted, grounded book that offers the possibility of deep transformation.

Detailed, precise, to the point, very helpful.
Nothing to dislike. After reading it a few times & finding some peace after having questions answered, I gave a copy each to five gifted friends, to help them better understand, & work with, their frustrations during this current timeframe.
