 Is Someone Draining Your Energy? Tell Tale Signs That It Is Happening To You
We all have experienced at least one relationship that somehow "zaps" our energy. Has it happened to you recently? The first step to changing the situation is being aware of what happens "to you" during an exchange.
The key is to look for consistent patterns. In other words, does the "drain" happen over and over again? Here are a few tell tale signs that you are out of balance with that certain someone:
- Confusion
- Irritability
- Tired
- Frustrated
- Unable to concentrate/focus
- You are not "yourself"
Here is a head's up. You don't have to grin and bear it. There are ways to manage the situation without running the other way. I will be sharing more about this in future messages from Mary. For now, here is some really interesting information about "the physical impact" of negative emotion in the workplace.
 Every emotion we experience has a corresponding physical reaction within the body. Frustration, anger, sadness and other "emotions" can be identified and even tracked with the proper instrumentation, as demonstrated by Heart Math , an international organization dedicated to increasing awareness of Heart-Brain connection. Research shows our "electromagnetic field" can be felt by others....
Consider the obvious: What emotions are you susceptible to from others because you leave yourself open to their negativity?
Consider: Pay attention to how you "feel" as you move from person to person during the day.
