How To Protect Your Energy from Toxic People?

When in the company of highly narcissistic individuals we tend to feel drained, down, sad, insecure and doubtful. 

In essence we feel depleted of our life force, of our energy.

Why?

Because when you are in contact with a narcissist you are used as a "human battery". 

If you are in a relationship with a psychopath or a narcissist, to them you have one, and only one purpose: narcissistic supply. 

Your reaction to their pity ploys, lies, accusations, and all the manipulation tactics that you can think of are what they live by.

In today's video I insist on the importance of protecting your energy and why we would benefit immensely from letting our energy guide us to what is good for us and what is not.

So, if you ask me, the best way to protect your energy is to reduce contact. If you can go no contact, great, if not, reduce it as much as possible.

Remember what Robert Hare says: 

"If you see a psychopath, RUN"

Freud said something that makes a lot of sense as well: 

"Before you diagnose yourself with depression, or low self-esteem, make sure you are not, in fact,  surrounded by jerks"
