Have you noticed this new social problem? Some folks have seemingly lost their humanity. You’ve encountered some of this lately, haven’t you?

In today’s article I’m inviting you to share your stories about being on the receiving end of today’s new social weirdness. Toward the end of this article, I’ll give you one safe-and-easy way that you can help others… by speaking up now.

First, Though

It’s only fair to pause long enough go into the basics for this article at our Energy Spirituality® Blog. Energy Spirituality helps people like you with emotional growth and spiritual evolution, using skills that work now, in the Age of Awakening.

Wisdom Seekers, I just linked you to a YouTube video to help familiarize you with our many innovations. Amazingly, come to think of it, I founded this field 40 years ago. One of our specialties is expertise at researching your spiritual consciousness (and mine)  through skills of “energetic literacy.”

#1. Rose Rosetree’s Standing

Before you read any article, it’s always wise to check an author’s standing. That way you’re more likely to read ideas that have High Truth Value. 

For today’s article, that means my standing as a Consciousness Engineer. An Empath Coach. And the Founder of Energy Spirituality® SENSITIVITY COACHING.

Well, there’s a mouthful! Wisdom Seekers, maybe you already know about all this. Otherwise, please read the following:

• I’m the founder of Energy Spirituality®. Yes, this field aims to help people like you with emotional growth and spiritual evolution. We use skills that work NOW, in the Age of Awakening.
• Energy Spirituality® SENSITIVITY COACHING is the newest specialty within Energy Spirituality®. This emerging knowledge is an outgrowth of my pioneering work for empaths, the system of Empath Empowerment®.
• All this builds upon skills for Aura Reading Through All Your Senses®. That’s a system for aura-researching people’s consciousness, including their chakra databanks.
• Also, Energy Spirituality® SENSITIVITY COACHING builds upon skills I’ve developed long-term as a Consciousness Engineer.

About That (Just Mentioned) Energy Spirituality® SENSITIVITY COACHING,

The Purpose of This Is

To Support Your Unique Sensitivity

• Energy Spirituality® SENSITIVITY COACHING is the newest specialty within Energy Spirituality®. This emerging knowledge is an outgrowth of my pioneering work for empaths, the system of Empath Empowerment®. 
• All this builds upon skills for Aura Reading Through All Your Senses®. That’s a system for aura-researching people’s consciousness, including their chakra databanks.
• Also, Energy Spirituality® SENSITIVITY COACHING builds upon skills I’ve developed long-term as a Consciousness Engineer.

I’m Here to Support Your Unique Sensitivity

Wisdom Seekers, you can think of Sensitivity Coaching as supporting the unique sensitivity of every human being who has normal mental functioning. In recent years I’ve identified six different forms of lifelong sensitivity.

Being an empath is just 1 of these 6 lifelong Sensitivity Styles. I’m now in the beginning stages of co-creating this body of knowledge. I invite each of you to help me develop it.

Meanwhile you can benefit from using AI Protection Tips, with how-to’s summarized there, at my first published article on this how-to topic.

In this article, I invite you to help by commenting-and-responding with an anecdote like the one I’ll share with you here today.

#2. Aided by These Interlocking Kinds of Standing, I Can

Sound an Alarm about the OPPOSITE of Sensitivity

In this article I’m here to support your unique sensitivity by calling out something is as obvious to consciousness observers as the proverbial elephant in the room.

Wisdom Seekers, I’m calling out the dehumanizing impact of some AI applications:

• Google AI Mode,
• AI Overviews,
• And chatting with “your instant best friends,” chatbots.

What, exactly do I mean by the dehumanizing impact of some AI applications?

Don’t expect the usual members of THE Enlightenment Establishment to call it out. Or to offer any effective solutions. Mental health professionals and neuroscientists can do brilliant work. However, they know nothing about spiritual consciousness. Call this a blind spot for them.

Certain Applications of AI, How Can They Threaten a Person’s Humanity?

Not intentionally. My research leads me to appreciate that this problem is not a conspiracy. More like cluelessness, even irresponsibility, on behalf of AI enthusiasts.

Nonetheless, there’s a dehumanizing impact of the above-mentioned forms of AI. I’m pursuing a solution, AI Protection Tips. This involves an easy way to protect yourself, at the level of consciousness.

Meanwhile, many of us are already seeing that dehumanizing effect on people we know. (Keep reading, folks.)

#3. Seeking Stories About People In Your Life …

Who Seem to Have Lost Their Humanity

This is something new: Some folks will talk to you as though they’re simply transmitting data. No expressions on their faces, nor emotions in their voices. As though they, personally, present themselves more like computers than humans.

The rudeness isn’t intentional. Seems to me, folks who have lost their humanity (for now) don’t realize what they’ve lost.

As the Founder of Energy Spirituality, with all the previously-mentioned kinds of standing, I’ve recently completed a research study about how to remedy this sorry state of things. Trust me, I aim to release this as soon as feasible. Then I’ll have more to tell you about how you can stay a resourceful person who remains very, very human.

Today I’m inviting you to share one of your stories about people who have started treating you as though you were no longer a person. Incidentally, I don’t mean the usual culprits:

• The racists
• The men for whom women are invisible–unless they present themselves as bimbos, etc.

Rather, what’s happening now is the most bizarre social change I’ve witnessed in the 50+ years that I’ve served as a spiritual teacher.

#4. My Story of Receiving the Dehumanization Treatment

Ever notice, Wisdom Seekers? Stories can bring home our humanity, especially stories that combine details of objective reality with the subjective feelings involved.

By sharing the following recent example from my life, I hope to encourage you readers to respond with stories that you have to tell.

So far, those stories may not have much of a context in our society. I gather, relatively few people have noticed that this isn’t ordinary rudeness but a new consciousness problem of dehumanization.

But you, Wisdom Seeker? Inwardly you’re uncommonly awake. Maybe you’ll find at least one story to share here.

I’ll give you one everyday story. No hype. Not trying to impress you like some “Made for TV” blockbuster.

My Dehumanization Story

Recently I’ve begun to see an asthma specialist, a pulminologist. (No worries. I’m fine. This just the responsible kind of thing that we seniors sometimes do.)

Technician Sam met me at reception. “Come with me,” he said. No smile. Neither mentioning my name, nor dropping his own. Sam led me to enter one of the many rooms.

This room contains a very large, high-end device for measuring a patient’s breathing. Sam gestured for me to sit in a chair near the machine. Next, he gave me a white, plastic mouthpiece to hold in my mouth. That mouthpiece was attached to a tube, and from there my data would be sent to the rest of the computer.

Sam threw instructions at me, like:

• Breathe in.
• Exhale slowly.

At a certain point, he raised his voice and commanded me: “Exhale forcefully. Harder!” Since Sam hadn’t prepared me for this in any way, I jumped and choked for a moment. The mouthpiece fell out of my mouth.

“Why didn’t you follow my instructions?” Sam sounded disgusted. He told me what he meant by exhale forcefully. Then he repeated the fairly elaborate procedure. This time I did okay.

Throughout the 12 minutes we spent together, only once did Sam do anything recognizably human. After my data had been collected, Sam picked up what from his desk? Briefly, he held the white, plastic mouthpiece that he’d give me to use. Then, for the only time while he was with me, Sam’s face looked animated on his face. Forcefully, he pitched the plastic junk into a trashcan some eight feet away.

Basket! Technician Sam didn’t exactly smile in triumph. Temporarily, though, he stopped frowning.

Without another word, he led me to the next office, then wordlessly walked away. In that second office, I gathered, eventually I would meet with my doctor.

Wisdom Seeker, you’ve read my story. Now it’s your turn.

#5. Please Share Your Story Twice, Twice

Hey, this request is unusual. I’m asking you to comment at the version of this article at my personal blog. I just gave you the url.

If you can, please do this: Copy your response and publish it at this article here on Medium.

This Request Seems Unusual, Doesn’t It?

My goal, Wisdom Seekers, is for you to respond at my personal blog. Also, I may quote your story in a book of some kind. (More on that to come, in the future.)

Look, I’ll explain when I have your email address. Of course, on Medium I have no access to that address, do I. And I sure wouldn’t expect you to publish your email address on Medium. (I’d rather not either.)

Here comes the cute part. When you send your comment to my blog, at the email address for this article — I’ll confidentially and discreetly gain access to your email address. So we can correspond. I thank you in advance.

#6. Why Am I Collecting These Stories?

You can help others by speaking up now. A new kind of dehumanization is creeping into your society. I’d like you to help me to call out this mess. Then stop it.

That simple.

#7. In Conclusion

What an important topic is today’s new dehumanization! Let’s bring it to people’s attention through my article and your responses-and-comments.

Even a year from now, left unchecked, this problem may become more prevalent … and be taken for granted.

Please join me, Wisdom Seeker, as I seek to make a real difference.

And thanks for reading.
