I worked for thirty years in a government job with some very toxic, backward, and unevolved human amoebas. My life has so blossomed since that day I finally walked away from that monkey cage. Now that I'm free, there is no way I will tolerate negative, jealous, and competitive people in my space.

I have one friend. He is really good. Back in the day I used to have alot more, but they stole energy from me. I removed them all from my life.

The psychologist Ross Rosenberg says: "don't wrestle with the pigs, you might get dirty and they like it!"

Never let them know how it affects you. Best to walk away. If you can't walk away try using it as your training ground for presence. The lighter you get mentally the more they will be uneasy in your presence. Talk less . Interact less. Don't take them seriously. Don't give them the reaction that they crave. Become a tree in their presence. All these are secondary measures . The best way is to walk away and not listen to that ego in you that wants to engage the drama.

It's hard when your family is toxic, and you spend your life trying to love them and forgive them just to constantly get screwed. Knowing the whole time you would be better completely away from them.

Not giving into their toxicity is easy enough, not giving into our own is the hard part.

I really love how he said "I don't put up with that shit" well said!!!!

“I don’t put up with that shit” 😫😂😂

Its very hard when the toxic person is your mother who is elderly and lives on her own and is fragile physically and emotionally. Its a lot easier to walk away from somebody not related to you. Severe restricted contact is the only other way.

I've been doing a lot of this lately. Finally. After way to long. Family friends. And I started realizing why I was attracting toxic relationship s because it's all I knew I finally realized I grew up in a toxic family and that's my comfort zone. I've burned those bridges too and I have to be OK with that. I work at learning more about the ways I have invited toxic people in. I've built more self respect and love with working in therapy and working on slf awareness. I'm recognizing how I've been toxic as well. It's so confusing but worth the self work

Amazing when you do you never look back Respect ourself and stop negative self talk. Removing our own toxicity

Some people do apologize and tell you they wont betray you and then go on to betray you.

BRAVO!!! I recently quit my job as a homecare provider because my client was verbally abusive, constantly berating me over trivial things and non-issues, telling me lies about myself that were belittling and degrading. Long story short: this person can find someone else to clean her poop off the floor and do her drudge work.

Friends are actually the best reflection of ourselves especially when we don't know ourselves enough , if one works on oneself and raise the vibration to a higher energy level with more positively , the negativities automatically stays away. I agree that sometimes the biggest mistake, is that we don't realize our own toxicity. Things are so much easier if we just simply focus on the "self" than focusing on other people

Got rid of a toxic ex friend because I respect myself more than before, I recognise my own worth value and I’m a work in unending progress❤️

I am a Hoyoka Empath and I have "attracted" toxic/narscistic people my whole life. I am in the "final chapter" of this lesson. I have been living with a toxic) narscistic nightmare for a while and I recognize that I chose this to see that I don't owe this toxic person anything! I chose to love myself unconditionally and the next chapter in my life is opening now. We are here to give God glory and to grow closer to Him by learning from each situation we choose. I am grateful to be self aware. Most people today are toxic and "dead in spirit". I choose to be divine love and light in a dark world full of ignorant/lost souls. Praise God. Hallelujah 💖💕💓

The best advice I've heard for a long time, "the level of respect we receive from others, is proportional to the level of respect we have of ourselves"... I suspected this before but didn't trust my gut feeling.

I experienced they come back in various ways , like through your kids My biggest mistake was to always forgive and forget knowing they are toxic but thinking i could keep the boundarues and manage , nope you can t

great video...both my parents are soooo toxic, energy vampires, border line psychopathic...yet, as they are both 80, I take care of them and live with my mom (they are divorced but live close)...so it is at times difficult to 'stay away'....I am blessed to have found this extremely peaceful channel, thank you universe.

In meditation i was pondering why a past friend acted like she was better than others and when i stood my ground on my on behalf she attacked and used everything to tear me down,downright nasty. I heard from my inner being, " whats sad is when you feel less and you were matched with her because you feel less than others which is what's really underneath her facade of narcissism,lack of self love,and it clicked. I absolutely love it when i find my blind spots, because it means I'm less likely to be manipulated for it. The work has paid off big time 🙌 I finally love myself and absolutely enjoy being in my own company. Bless all of you here😍💚

It's easy to remove toxic people from your life. I use two words that describe the action they need to take in no uncertain terms.

So true. We must first look for toxicity in ourselves. Once we take off our blinders and work that out, walk away from others with toxic behavior.

I believed so much that I can change toxic people around me. Then it comes to the point where I feel like Im just being completely ignored and I decided to leave those people and carefully select friends. Unfortunately, ppl call this introverted and antisocial...

This video gave me an epiphany. Externally, I'm not a toxic person. I don't harass, use or manipulate others, but when you spoke of the toxicity within that attracts toxicity from others, a light came on in me. I've been aware for years that I far too often dwell on negative thoughts, i.e., what others have done to me, the negativity and evil in the world. I've tried for many years to free myself from these thoughts. I'm so grateful for this video, to have a revelation while listening to you. I realize now that I held onto those negative thoughts of others as a way to keep buried the negative thoughts that deep down I have about myself. This is VERY painful for me to realize. I'm crying while typing this. I'm going to use this as a starting point to focus more honestly on what's really inside of me, to heal and become stronger mentally and emotionally. Thank you for sharing so much wisdom. You are truly doing good works.

Or people that continually find fault in themselves, convincing them otherwise is a fools game. I wouldn't say we attract them, there are just so many of them they're actually hard to avoid.

I listen to this once every month. It automatically comes in my list. I am having a hard time not being people pleaser. But I m healing slowly.

Came back to this encouragement a few times. It took me decades to truly embrace this and live it. Very difficult when family members, but possible from this place.

Its a bit tricky, if you married someone and then a couple of years later they then begin to disrespect or disregard you.

My dad is toxic and this video makes so much sense. I’m going to just ignore him and stop feeding into his toxic behavior towards me. Thank you

I thought about this and I feel like often I don’t trust my instincts, like I will feel uneasy with the way I’m being treated but then I will sort of think “oh maybe I’m being over sensitive” and I can’t always tell? So I just carry on being nice, and it happens again and I feel uneasy again. I would say when it’s more clear cut abuse I definitely have a stronger barrier these days though, which is good x

Lack of respect for ourselves? I agree 💯 being unworthy! Thank you for bringing this to my attention. So appreciate what I have learned from you today

I find this talk very straight up! Thank you so much! I notice my very unhealthy tendency to beg for attention from people who really do not appreciate me. I am going to listen again to this simple, clear message. It is strengthening!

Stopped speaking to abusive family members. They said that's not the way this family operates. I have to continue taking abuse, physical, mental, emotional and manipulation. Then I though hang on a sec. .. nah. Breathe. Happier without them. Peace.

I'm happy to say I no longer have toxic people in my life. I'm learning to trust my feelings and respect myself when I just don't want someone in my life. I used to feel guilty when I cut people off, but now I see the importance of putting my wellbeing first. Much love to all in the comment section!

I have never understood how some people can be purposely mean and act as if what they did or said wasn't wrong. They have no shame in their actions.

Thank you for this. I have to let go of a toxic family member. I have put in 50 years of trying. I think I have tried enough.

This is very good advice. I distanced myself from a toxic person, but cannot fully walk away because of our child. Your insight helps tremendously, thank you so much Nada.

I learned a lot about myself being in a relationship with a narcissist. Painful but lesson learned.

What if the toxic people are my own family

I just cut two out. Ugh, not alot of friends left haha Edit: lonely but happy/content.

Respect and compassion is not how i feel for them in the moment. I struggle feeling that for a parent who shows me none. Hate that im reactionary instead of responding. Hate that it still gets me, especially since im trying to do better. My mom does not like me much. She has her moments when she is nice, usually when she needs something from me

I wonder if the 9 people who gave this video a thumbs down realize this video is about them

Same as you, no problems burning the bridges and not looking back. No need to hold on to anything or anyone at all. I have let go of anything within me that would have kept me attached to any specific thing or person for certain reasons. Deep work resolves many of those reasons, then boom, goodbye toxic person without a thought.

I think this is such great advice. It took me 2 years to learn and recognise how to deal with a toxic relationship as I was so vulnerable from losing my husband. But I think by learning it such a hard way I'll not allow myself to respond to another's toxicity again. ..hopefully x

Thank you. I appreciate your helping and healing ideas.

Thank you Nada. Just found this video now and just at the right time. You must have suffered pain in your life to become this wise. God bless your beautiful heart.

Finding it very hard to push away my narcissistic mother. Your other video on Is self love narcissism, I started trying to figure out what happened to her & felt sorry for her a lil. Now I feel like she had been brainwashing me to believe she really loves me although her actions prove otherwise. CPTSD relapse is kicking my butt without being able to get away from her, covid stopped evictions. The right trauma therapy came late. It has manifested itself physically, cortisol... I let my guard down during surgeries & the pain prescriptions. Awake again for 5 years now still trying to get over flashbacks, guilt & shame while loving myself again. Trying to digest everything that has conspired has strengthened me in some ways but make me feel that I'm not as loving in general as I was. Thank you so much for your videos ✌❤

Thank you Awaken Insight. I really appreciate your satsangs. I love your energy and your presence. Blessings upon you. 🙏🏻

this is so excellent!!! I've been seemingly bombarded with toxic people---family and old friends. I guess it's been a growing concern since I've been finding my self -value, finally. My responses can be toxic as I learn this new me and this new way. I see this and I love myself thru it. There is soooo much to cultivate here, so I'll listen a few more times. Thanx for shining this light on this area!

All your videos are really solutions to my daily life problems. Thank you : ).

Nailed it again Nada! Thank you

Way right on dude. Crazy good advice. I'm taken it. You don't have to look for love when it's where your coming from.

Thx for the magic of change.

It’s really freaking me out how your videos will show up on my feed while I’m dealing with these exact problems personally and among my friends, please know that your videos serve a great purpose that I know you intended for them to. Thank you

Thank you!! I really find your videos very grounded n yet enlightening and gvng the right guidance just when I need it.

Lovely wisdom. Thank you.

Thank you for being you!

Thank you, great advice :) often, it`s all really easy in the end when you keep following your intuition

You are truly God sent❤ TY so much for this much needed wisdom. Many thanks Brother 🙏

You are a beautiful being, thank you for all your videos. Each one is a gem💕⚘

This is so powerful message 😇Thank you 🙏

This content is of utmost value to me personally. Thank you.

Thank you so much for your words

Thank you for the tools to use against toxic people, especially the one that makes them sting inside.

best video that i ve ever seen,helped me more than any psyhchologist before

Again what you said is soooooo inspirational I thank you so much for knowledge and wisdom. Addie

My exnarc wife, what a wicked, madness, you start getting toxic been for long periods of time with them. Just leave them alone not worth it they're dangerous.

Thank u! So helpful 🙏

Valuable insight thank you

thank you. this helped me immensely

Thank you for sharing your most high wisdom,,,,it shall help man,,,,,,,ny self included,,,,peace

Thank you so much for your content. It blesses my life.

Thank you for clarifying this for me 😎

Good video short and concise, I'm finding that the more I face up to confrontation and be clear about what's acceptable to me and what's not, things become much easier... It's definitely a work though that is going to take time.. Establishing healthy boundaries and keeping people who don't have your best interests at a distance...

You're so that kid I sat next to in Jr.. Luv the channel.

Great advice! We must focus on our own self love, then gratitude and move out from there.......

I wish I found your knowledge earlier in my life. It could help me to save some tears and money. Lol. Fortunately, this is helping me to confirm my decision to work on myself first then remove toxic relationship from my life. Thanks so much for sharing all your wisdom.

Thank you sir. Your practical wisdom is helping to awaken so many.

Your story makes a lot of sense. Only one note: Real narcs can feel very ashamed but not guilty.

Preach. It is refreshing to hear bullshit is bullshit. It took 50 years to throw off the weight of an abusive childhood that used conservative religion as the club. Why should I play by the rules if they don't? Who decided that I am the sacrificial lamb? I'm still working on the not taking things personally. Thank you for your wisdom.

Great insights...Strong spirit...

Thank you, great video and wisdom

Thank you for this video. :)

💚love the setting and the bird song

Excellent video ❤

Aftr 2 yrs of a much loved relationship, i found myself running away literally leaving the other no clue. I dnt know how an energy packed relationship turned to be so toxic wherein often i felt suffocated and enslaved.

I love this video the most! I did do the same. I walked away after 22 years. Still, I get the flashbacks of abuse that I took. I am not physically there. It's just the old energy leaving slowly. I write a lot, read, go for walks, try to relax.

If you react to toxicity of other people than you become part of it - Eckhart Tolle

So, thank you for this video, it helps me actually!

Beautifully spoken, YHWH bless you with double portions of annointing oil overflow and HOLY SPIRIT FIRE in Jesus name I pray AMEN 🙏🏼♥️🕊

Thank you very much!

Thanx a lot for the great lesson ❤️❤️

Thank you 🌸

I enjoy this content. Thanks

Once you have found strength in ones own self love and self respect one can loosely engage the people with toxic patterns to shine light , gently to help heal them. If you shut them out completely they begin to breed with other people with toxic patterns and the toxic web expands. This is not good for everyone. So we must keep inoculating the love and kindness toward them . Love and live on.

Thank you!!!

man thnx.higher vibes👍

Yes!! 🙏🏼namaste 💜

Haha you've really grown since this. Great work

I'm not sure if there are toxic people. Most of them just reveal our own mistakes. I have a great problem with people who in turn have a problem with themselves. I can feel that and suffer from their own dissatisfaction. Mostly they don't do me anything really bad but I cannot deal with them in a relaxed way. They infect me with their own inner unrest. Indeed this is my problem and not theirs.
