They make us tired and unhappy: 10 ways to protect yourself from the emotional vampire

Have you ever walked into a room and suddenly felt as if someone had sucked all your energy and life out of you?

Energy or emotional vampires are people who do not feed on your blood, but with emotions, patience – they literally feed off the energy of the people around them. Energy vampires are in most cases individuals who have low self-esteem and need constant validation from others. They constantly complain, criticize, are dissatisfied, create problems out of everything.

Here are some tips to help you deal with it.

Don't show any feelings

Emotional vampires crave attention and recognition, but be careful not to fall into their trap. They are looking for people to feel sorry for them. If they try to lure you into their world, back away from them. Always be honest with an energy vampire and tell them what you think. You are not responsible for someone else's happiness. Be positive.

Eat healthy and sleep well

To protect your energy, you need to provide your body and mind with all the nutritional compounds it craves. Your diet should be balanced and varied. Eat healthy and fresh food and consume enough calories to get your body through the day at an optimal energy level. Energy vampires look for people with high energy levels to suck it up and make themselves feel better.

Recharge yourself with energy

Take time for yourself every day and do what relaxes you. You must maintain a high energy level to thwart any attempt by the energy vampire. To do this, you need to take care of your mental, physical and emotional health. Develop confidence and self-love. De-stress, relax.

Do not participate in the interview

Avoid them if you feel insecure or vulnerable. Never deal with and interact with an emotional vampire if you are not feeling 100%. Even under perfect circumstances, they can drag a person down to their level. If you have tried to help an energy vampire and share your positive energy with him, and he does not respond to your attempts, you should cut off all contact with him. Some energy vampires do not understand their actions. Others, however, are fully aware of what they are doing and will always try to steal your energy.

Take time for yourself, meditate, fill yourself with positive energy. Every moment counts!

Try to help them

Energy vampires are people who you could say have lost their way in life and might need a little help to get back on track. You can help them if you want. All people should help each other during hard times. Energy vampires are people who need help and guidance.

Smile at them

How will this help you? A smile is a positive vibration and when you share it with others, they too will begin to receive these positive vibrations. Your smile directed at others will have the same effect that theirs has on you. Make sure you keep it positive when you share it with others.

Be positive

Be so positive that no negativity can move you. Some emotional vampires need attention, support and love, while others are desperate and angry. Some are tough and insufferable, while others are completely kind and charming. Sometimes the people close to you will wear you down. But that doesn't mean they are energy vampires. These can be good and positive people who are just having a bad day and need attention and love.

Meditate every day

Strengthen your inner defenses and fill yourself with positive energy with meditation. One of the best ways to protect yourself from emotional manipulation is to dive deep into your soul. It will provide everything you need to increase energy levels and identify different types of energy. That way energy vampires won't be able to steal your energy.

Cleanse your aura

When you encounter an energy vampire, remember to cleanse your aura and fill yourself with positive energy. How can you do this? In different ways. Meditate, enjoy a walk, enjoy the sun, eat healthy, exercise regularly.

Repeat positive affirmations

Visualize it. Repeat affirmations such as: "I am strong, positive and I am a good person!" or "No one can destroy me!" Repeat these affirmations and you will notice that you will be flooded with positive energy that no one can take away from you.
