What are the BEST ways to deal with energy vampires?

What are the BEST ways to deal with energy vampires? An energy vampire is someone who cannot sustain their own energy or life force so they feed off others who are at a higher energetic level. They are unhappy and struggle to find the joy within so they seek it outside of themselves. There’s many energy vampire personalities. For example:

• The Victim – feels the world is against them, they’re constantly moaning or sobbing, trying to feed off other people’s attention.

• The Blamer – always blaming others and not taking responsibility for their own actions. They put the onus on someone else, they hand out guilt, dumping all their crap onto others and dampening down their energy.

• The Drama Queen – looking for attention, acting up. Everything is enhanced to an enormous scale of negative energy thus stealing the energy of others.

• The Charmer – the joker, talker, wanting to be the centre of attention, wanting other people’s energy directed at them.

• The Green Eyed Monster – jealous. Wanting what others have, not happy with what they’ve got, trying to take what’s not theirs.

• The Guilt Tripper – using shame to get what they want from other people.

• The Gossiper – not happy with their own life so looking for drama I other people’s lives.

• The Insecure – pulls others down to their level of low self esteem.

• The Paranoid Android – highly anxious and fearful. Chaotic energy surrounds them causing imbalances in those around them.

As you can see there’s many types of energy vampires. The important thing that I want to point out is that they can be your family, friends, colleagues, neighbours, shop assistants, the person sitting beside you on the bus. It can be well meaning, normal people but in moments of unhappiness, illness or stress their energy can be very low and drain healthy, happy people. .. .. Signs you’ve been in contact and attacked by an energy vampire

• You’re exhausted, tired (even after a phone conversation), weak, sick

• You’re unfocused, depressed, a headache has developed

• Lack of motivation

• You notice a slimy feeling when you’re in their presence

• You feel fearful, unworthy, are unhappy

• Your chest tightens when you meet them

10 Tips to protect yourself from energy vampires

1. You will encounter energy vampires so awareness is vital. Look out for the signs above.

2. Take a deep breath, center yourself and stand your ground. Do not allow them to bring you down to their level.

3. Set boundaries, say no. You have the choice to walk away and not deal with them.

4. Do not react, stay neutral. They will get bored and go feed off someone else.

5. Cut cords of attachment. If you think someone is draining you, imagine there’s a cord attaching them to you and cut through it with an imaginary axe – one swift chop – done. Detached.

6. Use light. If you’ve left a particular yucky situation, imagine you are standing under a shower of silver light to cleanse and wash away any ickiness. You can also shield protect yourself with white light, imagine yourself surrounded by white light and set the intention that your energy stays with you. I like to use pink light. I imagine surrounding myself with pink light to protect me so they can’t steal my energy but also that I can send love to them.

7. Ask Archangel Michael for help. He’s really great for clearing negative energy and shielding you from energy attacks. He’ll surround you with his beautiful blue light.

8. Wear a crystal pendant or jewelry to act as a buffer in harsh energy situations. I like to wear rose quartz, I find it very soothing and offers love and compassion.

9. Also consider ‘what do you I to learn from this situation?’ For example, if you’re attracting jealous and competitive people, chances are those people are attracted to you because you are acting the same. If you work through your issues, these people will get bored and move onto feed off someone else.

10. The best thing to do: surround yourself with happy, positive people and be happy and positive yourself.

Take a moment and consider if there is someone in your life that is draining you? I hope some of these tips help you in protecting your precious energy.
