Dealing With Difficult People

When you love someone and want the best for them, often we are coming from a loving, caring place in our hearts when we are communicating with them. But, what happens when we are in that loving, innocent place and the person we are talking to lashes out with a negative comment, hurtful energy and completely ignores or misunderstands our intentions?

Do we try to explain ourselves to them? Do we argue and try to defend ourselves? Do we leave the situation or if we are on the phone do we just excuse ourselves and hang up? Do we “take the hit” and pretend nothing is wrong? I think the best thing we can do is to pull our energy back into our own space and take some deep breaths. That gives us our personal power back. Then put our focus on being in the moment and lastly, look at where that person is coming from. Easy to say, perhaps very hard to do. It takes a lot of practice to be “enlightened”. My personal definition of “enlightened” is to live with the light on. To have clear seeing and clear intention in every moment. I often feel like a have a magic wand somewhere and I should be able to wave it and make everything wonderful.

However, until my magic wand, magically appears, my practical advice is to be “enlightened” about the event as soon as possible. That might be in a few minutes, hours, days or weeks, but to reach for that “enlightened” state. In the meantime, to protect yourself by saying something or doing something to lighten the energy or even leave the situation, (if possible) and let the person know you can or will discuss it at another time. It is also important not to say something you might regret later.

Even though these events can be very painful, it is important to know we can use them for Spiritual growth. You can also call our Master Psychics for clarity and answers that may help you understand and deal with these hard situations. I would love to hear some of the situations you may be dealing with and some of the solutions you have come up. We need to remember it is our birthright to dance in the light. We are here to learn, to grow and to be happy.

I personally wish you much happiness, love and many blessings!
