When I picked up this book as a beta reading assignment, I had no idea what to expect. I've never understood any of this stuff, and some of the words (chakra for instance) I had heard but did not know the meaning.I realize some reviewers found this "basic" and lacking in depth, but as the title is "Empath Basics" one would think that's understood. For someone like me, it was just right. It saved me from hunting all over the internet looking for things I don't know how to find and getting all tangled up in the process.I'm not sure whether I would be classified as an "empath" though there were some interesting similarities, but these techniques are likely useful for everyone, and dealing with bullies and ill-intentioned people, noise and crowds, etc. is not limited to individuals with special gifts.I also liked Ms. Martinez' friendly approachable style that made the book like a conversation with a trusted friend, not a lecture from a professor.
