In our everyday life, we
are surrounded by a variety of people. Some of the people we deal with
on a daily basis are a joy to be with, and their loving presence
nurtures and encourages us. Others may have the opposite effect,
draining us of our energy and making us feel tired and exhausted. Our
well-being can be easily influenced by those around us, and if we can
keep this in mind, we will have greater insights into the quality of
our social interactions and their energetic effect on us.
Once we think more deeply
about the people we interact with, it becomes easier for us to work
toward filling our lives with people who help us cultivate healthy and
positive relationships. Even though it might not always seem like we
have much control over who we are with, we do. The power to step back
from toxicity lies within us. All we have to do is take a few moments
to reflect on how another person makes us feel. Assessing the people we
spend the most time with allows us to see if they add something constructive
to, or subtract from, our lives. For example, if a friend saps our
strength, we can set the intention to tell them how we feel or simply
spend less time with them. We will find that the moment we are honest
with ourselves about our own feelings, the more candid we can be with
others about how they make us feel. While this may involve some drastic
changes to our social life, it can bring about a personal
transformation that will truly empower us — since the decision to live
our truth will infuse our lives with greater happiness.
When we surround
ourselves with positive people, we clear away the negativity that
exists around us and create more room to welcome nurturing energy.
Doing this not only enriches our lives; it also envelopes us in a
supportive and healing space that fosters greater growth,
understanding, and love of ourselves as well as those we care about.
