Join Me at Kripalu Center • August 21–23
Over the past five years, since my book Becoming an Empowered Empath was published, I’ve had the opportunity to hear from thousands of readers who have been exploring what it means to live as an empath in the world.
One thing has become very clear.
Being empathic is not just about learning how not to absorb energy. It’s about learning how to stand fully in your truth, your gifts, and your embodied power.
We are living in a time that is asking for that level of authenticity.
Many people are feeling the intensity of our current moment; socially, emotionally, and energetically. Sensitives and intuitives often feel these shifts even more deeply. Yet the deeper work of being an empath today isn’t simply about protecting yourself from the energy of the world.
It’s about learning how to live in your body in a way that keeps you grounded, clear, and connected to who you truly are.
That’s the focus of the work I’ll be guiding this August at Kripalu Center for Yoga & Health in Stockbridge, Massachusetts, where I’ll be teaching a three-day workshop:
Becoming an Empowered Empath in Evolutionary Times
August 21–23
This workshop brings the teachings from my book into a live, in-person experience where we can explore what it truly means to live as an empowered empath today.
Empathy in a Changing World
We are living in a time when it can be difficult not to feel the energy of the world.
Collective stress, uncertainty, and rapid change can dysregulate anyone’s nervous system. For people who are sensitive or intuitive, these experiences can feel amplified.
Empaths have an intuitive ability to feel the emotional and energetic environment around them. Yet there is a difference between feeling energy and absorbing it.
Absorption often occurs when the body carries unprocessed emotions, conditioning, and energetic imprints that weaken the stability of the nervous and energetic systems.
When this happens, sensitivity can feel overwhelming rather than empowering.
But the true nature of empathy is not about becoming debilitated by what we feel.
The true nature of empathy is strength, discernment, and presence.
The Foundation of the Empowered Empath
One of the most important teachings in Becoming an Empowered Empath is that our stability as sensitives depends on the lower half of the body, particularly the first three chakras.
These centers hold our grounding, personal power, and sense of self.
When these centers carry unresolved conditioning, emotional imprints, or energetic history, sensitivity can turn into absorption.
But when these layers begin to clear, something shifts.
You begin to feel more grounded.
Your boundaries strengthen.
Your intuition becomes clearer.
You can feel deeply without losing yourself.
This is what it means to live as an empowered empath.
What We’ll Explore Together at Kripalu
During this transformational weekend retreat, we’ll explore how the energetic system shapes the empathic experience and how to clear the patterns that create oversensitivity.
Through teachings, guided meditation, and deep energy healing work, you will:
- Discover how the chakras relate to empathic sensitivity
- Explore the power centers that empaths unconsciously operate from
- Understand how conditioning creates energetic imprints in the body
- Learn why grounding can feel difficult — and why it isn’t your fault
- Work with the inner child as part of empathic healing
- Receive guided energy healings to clear patterns and emotional imprints
- Learn how to live grounded, centered, and empowered as an empath today
This weekend is an opportunity to experience these teachings in a deeper, embodied way.
The Kripalu Experience
Kripalu Center for Yoga & Health is one of my favorite places to gather in person.
The retreat setting provides a rare opportunity to step away from daily life and reconnect with yourself. Surrounded by the beauty of the Berkshires, the environment supports reflection, healing, and renewal.
Your retreat experience includes:
- Three nourishing meals each day
- Access to Kripalu’s lake, walking trails, and peaceful grounds
- Daily yoga classes and wellness offerings
- Time for rest, reflection, and integration
It’s the perfect setting for deep inner work.
