Self-Care for Empaths: How to Stay Grounded in an Overwhelming World 2026

Описание: Being an empath isn’t a weakness — it’s a sensitive nervous system that needs intentional care.

In this episode, we explore Self-Care for Empaths by Tanya Carroll Richardson, a gentle yet powerful guide offering 100 practical, empath-specific self-care practices designed to help sensitive people stay grounded, emotionally balanced, and energized in an overwhelming world.

This discussion focuses on how empaths experience emotions, energy, environments, and relationships more intensely — and why traditional self-care advice often isn’t enough for highly sensitive, empathic people.

You’ll learn:

What it really means to be an empath (emotionally and energetically)

Why empaths are more prone to overstimulation, burnout, and emotional exhaustion

How to stay grounded instead of absorbing other people’s emotions

The importance of boundaries, retreat-and-recover time, and nervous system regulation

Practical self-care tools like cocooning, grounding rituals, emotional processing, and mindful routines

Why self-care for empaths is about balance, not isolation

Rather than promoting avoidance or numbing, this episode emphasizes healthy retreat, emotional clarity, self-trust, and compassionate self-advocacy. It’s ideal for anyone who identifies as an empath, highly sensitive person (HSP), caregiver, healer, or someone who feels deeply affected by the emotions and energy of others.
