Emotional Sponge
Like a sponge, we absorb other people's negative emotions. And then we feel emotionally wrung out. Rather than retaining negative emotions that don't belong to you, release them.
Strengthen your positive emotions and you'll enhance your ability to be empathetic yet at the same time not be an emotional sponge.
