020. Grow Your Clairsentience

In this episode of Innately Intuitive Podcast, our topic is clairsentience. This intuitive sense is the strength of empaths, in particular, who commonly feel what’s happening around them and even what’s happening worldwide in addition to their own feelings.

We discuss…

  • the two pillars of clairsentience

  • how we might employ clairsentience in service to others

  • a couple exercises aimed at strengthening clairsentience

…and more. Oh! And there’s a fun spirit voice that chimes in between the 16:44 and 16:46 mark. (It surprised the crap out of me when I heard it during the editing process. 🤣)

The Transcript

Hi. Welcome to Innately Intuitive Podcast, where owning your intuition is as much about raising your vibration as it is about grounding you. I'm Ellen M. Gregg, your host.

In case you're new, it will be helpful to know that a lot of channeling happens here, including the topics of all solo episodes. It's one of the ways my spirit team keeps me awake and present. Enjoy.

Well, hello. Before we learn the topic of this episode of Innately Intuitive Podcast, I want to share that this is the final episode of season 1. Episode 20 is the final episode of season 1 of Innately Intuitive Podcast. I'm guided to take a six-week break from publishing podcast episodes. And then after the six weeks, season 2 of Innately Intuitive Podcast will start.

So, I just wanted to give you that heads up. I do have an idea - not an inkling; an idea - that's brewing that I will need to check with guidance about that could include having very short - and I mean, like, under five minutes - little blips that refer to other episodes, perhaps from Soul Chats Podcast, which came before this one.

It could even be from before that when I was creating audio recordings with no sense of formality. I didn't have a podcast name, I was just sharing audio recordings. So if guidance is down with that, then I will share one of those each of those six interim weeks and that will just give you some different styles of content that I've created, audial speaking, to check out. Okay?

So yeah, holy crap. Episode 20. Here we go.

And for this episode, we will be discussing the clairsentience. What is clairsentience? Clairsentience is clear feeling. What is meant by feeling? The feeling can be emotions, therefore feelings. It can also be sensations; those things that you feel in a more tangible, physical way, as though through your physical body. What we notice about clairsentience is, for anyone who is an empath, you are clairsentient. This is one of the strongest, if not the strongest, of your intuitive abilities. This is why you feel things, sense things as you do.

Ah, very cool. Oh boy, I may have interrupted the flow. Did I interrupt the flow? No. I feel the energy inside me is definitely changing, so it could be that whatever channeling comes through next will be powered by a different primary energy. That's what it feels like, we'll see what happens. Anyway.

Clairsentience, yes. So, the thing about clairsentience is it really requires us to have a very very keen awareness of how we are feeling personally at the mental/emotional level, as well as at the physical level, so that we have a base temperature, so, to speak, from which we can then allow ourselves to know that other feelings, other sensations showing up aren't ours; so that we are able to discern the difference between the two.

Now, is there also a difference simply in terms of the fact that we have our own sense of our emotions, our mental wellness, our physical being and it feels differently when we are picking up or being somehow subject to someone else's feelings, someone else's physical being? Yes, there is a difference in that as well.

However, if we're in a situation where a lot is being picked up by us - for example, we're in a situation where we are either tuned into an event that involves a lot of people or we are actually at an event where there are a lot of people - It can be challenging to discern the difference between what is ours, and what is someone else's. So just to be aware of that.

Things can get a little muddied when we have a lot that we are tuning into, that we are taking into consideration. I'm being very careful with my words here, because it would be so easy to say that we are *taking on* and that's a big no-no.

For those of us who are empaths, we need to be so careful that even though we are feeling what others are feeling that we are not taking those feelings and those sensations on as our own.

We need to have enough self awareness, and enough sense of self-worth that then lends itself to self-care that we are more than adequately grounded and shielded, so that we can be witness to others’ feelings, others’ sensations and yet we are not taking them on for ourselves.

We are not becoming victim to them. We can be victim enough to our own stuff. We don't need to be victim to other people’s stuff. Okay?

And yes, this is a very important point. And we notice that for many empaths, they feel that if they are an empath, they are meant to feel things to the degree that perhaps it can be debilitating at some point. That means, they think that they are doing it - we put this in air quotes, as Ellen likes - ”right.” This is incorrect.
If you are being a true empath, you are able to witness, observe those emotions, those feelings, those sensations with a degree of detachment. This permits you to understand what is happening without becoming entrenched in it. How can you be of assistance if you become entrenched in it, entwined in it if it is as though you have suddenly entered a quicksand pit? You cannot help others if you are yourself saturated by others’ emotions and sensations.

Yes. I just had a glimpse of sensation - and not just sensation; there was definitely an image involved, too, that I'm going to call “martyrdom.” So when someone martyrs themselves, they're basically throwing themselves before the wolves so that they can prevent others from doing so. They basically offer themselves as a sacrificial lamb.

Joan of Arc is called a martyr. I'm not sure that she actually was. However, that's how she is referred to and how she is revered. What we don't want to do as empaths is decide that somehow that makes it that we must be martyrs for others. That is not what we're here for. If we recall, Joan of Arc ended up being killed.

How can we possibly help people here on this Earth plane if we martyr ourselves and are incapacitated? I don't mean to be heavy-handed. However, it came up and it needed to be mentioned.

So, clairsentience can be very helpful.

Clairsentience is something that, for the practitioner in particular, allows them to better understand how their client is feeling; where they are coming from emotionally and, if it is part of your practice, physically. This can assist with clearing what is ready for clearing and also illuminating that which is needing work by the client.

Yes. For example, a client might get on the phone with me and I'll say, ”How are you doing?”

And they'll say, ”Oh, I'm fine.”

And I hear their words, but I feel this heaviness in my chest and suddenly it's everything I can do not to cry. That isn't mine. I know how I'm feeling. This is theirs. And so that's when I share with them what I'm feeling and that it is coming from them. Because if that is illuminated in that way for me, it means it's meant to be brought up.

And the same thing with physical sensations. Typically, the physical stuff doesn't show up unless a client specifically asks for me to check in with their physical body. However, sometimes it will show up anyway and it's because there is something that needs illumination.

And so it might be that I'm feeling a similar heaviness or pressure in my chest and yet it's either related to something going on with the respiratory system; it could have to do with the heart; it could have to do purely with muscle tension that's affecting the pectorals and therefore affecting the breathing.

The thing is, once I have brought what I've noticed to the client, those sensations that are not mine dissipate because they aren't mine. I'm not meant to continue feeling them. That isn't helpful for me; it's distracting. Just something to consider.

And so, what can you do to practice the clairsentience? What we notice is, with the permission of others, allow yourself to tune into their feelings. Begin with their emotions. This is the most common reference.
And so with their permission, tune in and allow yourself to experience how they are feeling emotionally. And share with them what you notice, what you observe, what you feel. And then let those feelings go, knowing they're not yours; they are not for you to hold.
If you wish you can also explore the physical sensations. Again with permission, and perhaps it could be with someone that you know is experiencing some physical difficulty. Otherwise, it could be with someone that you assume has no physical difficulty. Allow your body to be a reflection of what their body feels. Notice what you notice. Share what you notice. Release what you feel.

Yeah, the permission piece, of course, is always important. And the thing is too about that, you can actually get feedback which is really helpful when you are exploring how clairsentience works for you; how you pick up on, tune into and actually feel those emotions, those physical sensations.

What we notice here as well is, it is important for you to be certain that you are fully grounded and fully shielded before you undertake this. This is going to be in great assistance, to you to ensure that you are not holding that which is not yours and could be unhealthy for you.

Yes, absolutely. So another aspect of clairsentience that can be very interesting [spirit voice: “Yeah?”] is that which shows up when we are sensing the feelings of a space, of a land. Because they show up very similarly to humans because they hold energy just like humans hold energy. And so that is something else to be aware of as an empath.

It's very likely that you might enter a space home or building that has held some sort of a tragedy and you are picking up on the aspects of that through those feelings and sensations. It's something to be aware of. It can be, of course, very cool. And yet, at the same time, you need to be aware and careful that you aren't holding onto that; that you are deflecting it, releasing it.

It's not yours. It's not meant to be yours. Catch and release, okay?

And so this concludes this episode of Innately Intuitive Podcast and also season 1 of Innately Intuitive Podcast. We look forward to sharing more adventures with you in season 2, and we will have Ellen share other audio recordings that she has made prior to Soul Chats Podcast so that you may have content that, while it is older, will perhaps be new to you and will fill the gap.

That sounds good to me.
