SO THAT’S WHERE MY ENERGY GOES?

👉 If you feel that anyone in your life argues, blames, ignores, manipulates, threatens, or otherwise hurts you- it is most likely they are a toxic person in your life.

👉 Toxic people can be family members, friends, co-workers, and neighbors

👉 You know they are toxic because they ooze negative energy and leave you feeling drained and worse whenever you are around them.

Here are 6 type of toxic people you may already know:

THE ENERGY DRAINER

• Drains you of energy, overwhelms you
• Creates problems and feeds on the negativity
• Criticizes and bullies you

THE FAKE COMPLIMENTOR

• Insincere excessive praise of everything you do
• Makes up white lies constantly to win your favour.
• Always seems to be agreeing with you
• Master of guilt trips

THE PESSIMIST

• Cannot be happy for other people’s good fortune
• Paints a no-hope / life sucks situation and has no plan to make things better
• Minimizes other people to feel better about themselves

THE MANIPULATOR

• Tries to control everything around them,
• Needs to be in charge of every decision,
• Makes you feel like you can’t do anything right

THE VICTIM

• Feeds off of gossip and drama.
• Drama seems to “follow them” (they create it).
• Puts you in uncomfortable positions

It is so important to set boundaries with toxic people in your life.

💡 Here are 3 quick steps to setting boundaries:

• Be clear about what you need before communicating it to others.
• Communicate your boundaries, needs or expectations clearly, calmly, and consistently. Keep it simple and state the facts without justifying.
• Decide on the consequences if your boundaries are not respected and follow through!

💡For me, practising loving detachment has been a game changer.

💡 Realising that – (shock horror) I am not here to save the day for everyone has been one massive step in containing my energy instead of giving it away.
