Are you a Healer?

So I went to Acupuncture tonight. It's offered free in my town from students learning to be professionals.  Anyway, as I talked the girl working on me, she began asking me some supplemental questions, feeling my energy and "chi" and then concluded that she thought I was a healer.  I wasn't sure what to make of that except to feel a bit proud and cool : )   But, I just looked it up and it sums me up to a tee.....so, now I feel even prouder and cooler : )   So, if I have to deal with anxiety and being called overly-sensitive because of my awareness of energies, etc. in exchange for the title of "Healer," I'll take it! Think that will fly on a resume?! : )

How do you know you're a healer?

Here a few signs that you could be a modern-day shaman:

1) You're sensitive. This includes being sensitive to your environment such as sounds, energy and the people in your surroundings. You can be easily overwhelmed. You prefer nature, as well as quiet and calm spaces.

2) You like being alone. You're introverted by nature. Being in large crowds is draining and overwhelming for you. When you're alone, you feel like you can charge up your batteries and regain your energy.

3) You're intuitive. You have a good sense of how things will turn out, and people often to turn to you when they have a problem. You can easily anticipate people needs and wants. You often have dreams and visions.

4) You have a big heart. You're empathic and compassionate. You can easily feel other people's pain. People often feel better or comforted in your presence, and feel safe in sharing their life secrets with you.

5) You are aware of energy. You see and sense the world through a different lens. You know that the world is more than just what you see, and you're able to look beyond the surface level of situations and exchanges. Your abilities can also make you sensitive to negative and positive energy.

6) You enjoy helping others. You genuinely enjoy being of service to other people. You may already be in a role of helping others as a practitioner, such as a nurse, chaplain or therapist. It brings you deep meaning and joy to help others.

7) The word "healing" excites you. You don't know why, but you're attracted to healing and want to learn more. You know you have a calling and have a feeling that healing can help you explore more deeply your gifts and talents.
