How to Ward Off an Energy Vampire?
We all have our energy fields. Did you ever felt that somebody was having a bad day without even talking to them? Or, somebody passes you, and you suddenly feel such a great energy from them, you can’t explain. The worst is when after talking to somebody, you feel all your energy is drained. That’s when you encountered an energy vampire.
These people are usually negative. Nothing satisfies them. After spending even a little time with them, you feel very tired, out of energy, as if somebody sucked you all out of your vitality. Conversely, after talking to you, they may feel revitalized. How to recognize them?
1) They usually talk on and on about their problems or somebody’s problems.
2) They slander about others non-stop
3) They are self-absorbed
They do not realize what effect they have; they just bring their negativity onto others.
So, how to ward off this energy vampire? What if they are our close friends or family? You don’t need to say good-bye to them forever, as long as:
1) You stay in the present and be aware of it;
2) Do not take their talk whole-heartedly, do not take it personally;
3) As soon as you feel the energy drain, cut them off by saying you got to go or change a subject;
4) You do not have to listen to stuff you don’t want to listen. Don’t need to put up with crap.
5) Be in control of conversation.
If you do feel your energy drained after conversation, go get fresh air, breathe. Do not let your mind to recapture the whole encounter and conversation. Think about something else, preferably something pleasant. Reclaim your freedom from negativity.
