Mari Silva’s “Psychic Vampires: The Psychic Self-Defense Guide for Empaths and Highly Sensitive People Wanting Protection against Attacks on Their Energy,” did an excellent job of defining and differentiating between Empaths and Highly Sensitive People (HSP). The author provided loads of examples and even a self-test so that readers can determine if they are either of them. She also included numerous mindfulness exercises as well as tools for meditation.

When I first picked up this book, I wasn’t familiar with the term, “Psychic Vampires,” being more familiar with “Energy Vampires” instead. Regardless of the name that’s applied to them, these people are highly negative, extremely critical, are completely unaccountable for any of their own actions, they’re drama queens, professional victims, and master manipulators. This book, though, will help anyone—whether they’re an empathetic, a HSP, or neither—to learn how to identify those personality traits to defend oneself against these incredibly toxic people.

Silva spends a lot of time focusing on setting and reinforcing boundaries. My favorite part of the book, though, is her “30-Day Challenge To Protect Your Energy.” This 30-day program is filled with a lot of good, solid ideas for each day. Overall, this is a great and thorough book on the subject.

I rarely give books a 5 star rating, but this book deserves it. Why? Because it taught me so many things about empaths that I did not know about, and also about HSP's and their traits (highly sensitive persons).

The book talks about the common traits and also differences between HSP and empaths, showing us that not all HSP are empaths, but most empaths are HSP. It has lots of cool facts about these two personality types, it explains thouroughly the differences between them. It also has 2 tests that you can self-score yourself on, to see that you are an empath or not, or a HSP or not. You can be both I guess?

Then it talks about the ways in which a person can deal with being highly sensitive. It also encourages you to embrace being sensitive, and how it is a strength rather than a deficit that you have to control or treat.

HSP draw in these psychic vampires that can be most of the time cathegorized into 3 common subtypes of vampires. These aren't teen fiction-like people, on the contraty, they are real people with traits and behavior that unintentionally "suck" your energy when you are next to them, talk to them or interact, or sometimes even just looking at them. Psychic vampires are basically toxic people that make you feel bad about yourself.

I forgot to mention, but it also talks about auras, your auras make-up/structures, chakras, and their colours. In one of the chapters it talks about how to strengthen yourself and defend against vampires.

The book's last chapter focuses on a 30 day challange to better yourself and become strong against psychic vampires (I didn't make it, but it has cool affirmations that I am considering useful and awesome).

I read it in about 2 hours or so. I got it free from Amazon ebooks, however, I think soon it will be for sale again, so I'm sorry if you cannot get it for free.

Mari Silva has a great talent for writing, she writes about literally every topic that you can imagine. She is great! I look forward to read more from her.

If you are someone who believes themselves to be an empath or highly sensitive to others emotions or vibrations then this is a good book to read. I picked up “Psychic Vampires” by Mari Silva to determine if the feelings and sensations I experience can be identified and explained and this book helped a lot as well as giving great advice on how to protect your personal sphere of energy and emotion.
✨✨✨✨✨
I really enjoyed the different learning tools and guides listed in this book on how to help keep yourself in a positive state while dealing with negative emotions from others. There is a way to let your friend or love one vent, without it affecting you too much. And….I have to admit, that after reading the descriptions of the different ‘Energy Vampires’, I feel that I can also be one at times too and this really helped me realize that even as a sensitive person, yes, you need to vent and talk to people, but also learn when to shut it and not push your feelings or vibrations onto others. Don’t turn around and make others feel what you sometimes feel off of others.
✨✨✨✨✨
I like that this talked about setting boundaries and helped give ideas on how to ground yourself and find peace to recharge yourself and that it is 100% ok to tell people “no” in order to protect your peace. I really like how it stressed that this does not make you a selfish person but a giving person to yourself to set boundaries and spend some time in self care mode. You have to protect your own space and energy to keep living a high vibrational life.
✨✨✨✨✨
There is so much more to this book and I honestly enjoyed reading it. There is a 30 Day Affirmation Challenge at the end of the book and I think I am going to try and give it a go. It is definitely worth trying out.

I love learning about the paranormal and spirituality. I love Mari's writing, Mari's way of writing makes every subject that is covered fun and easy to read and get stuck into. The idea of Psychic Vampires and their attacks on energy intrigued me and this book allowed my to further my knowledge about how to protect myself against that type of person in my life. The guide was an easy thing to read. I was not confused by any concept in it.
I loved the cover. It was so colorful. It helped draw me to it.
I received a complimentary copy from Booksprout and I freely left this review.

This was a very informative and well written book showing the differences between HSP's and empaths. I have read several of Mari's books and she does a great job of walking you through her topics and giving you great details so that you can easily understand what you are reading. I would definitely recommend this book!
