Today I'm talking about narcissists

0:02

and empaths. Are we stuck

0:05

in a never ending magnetic cord

0:08

attaching toxic dance? So

0:10

this morning, as I lay in between deep sleep and

0:13

lucidity, the voice of my higher self

0:16

said, write about the toxic dance and

0:19

seemingly never ending chord of attachment

0:22

between narcissists and empaths.

0:25

Share your perspective about it and about the universal

0:28

laws of duality, polarity and

0:31

consequence because there is much

0:34

misunderstanding and misinformation being

0:37

provided to empaths for their

0:39

process of being healed.

0:42

30

0:45

a.m.. M off and on, waiting patiently

0:48

for the words to fall out of my

0:50

mouth and into your hearts.

0:53

So I want to start with the characteristics of

0:56

narcissism. Narcissists tend

0:59

to crave attention and praise. They

1:02

have extremely needy and demanding

1:04

moments. They have unrealistic,

1:07

often misguided, grandiose views of themselves,

1:10

their lives, their relationships,

1:13

their work, and their future and present.

1:17

They can be very manipulative, condescending, argumentative, and

1:22

defensive, all in order to get what

1:25

they want. They can be very bullying,

1:28

intensely controlling, dominating and

1:31

jealous to an extreme, again,

1:34

all to control the narrative and get what

1:36

they want. They can both be

1:39

shy and also very extroverted.

1:42

Either way, they prey on your empathy, your giving

1:45

nature and your caring

1:47

nature. Or they can be very

1:50

dominating and assertive and overpower

1:54

your empathic giving and caring

1:56

nature. Whether they are shy or

1:59

extroverted, they are

2:01

immensely charismatic. Their

2:04

charm lures us into their

2:06

lair. They don't show their

2:09

tendencies until we have become enamored by

2:11

them. And by then, they

2:14

emotionally, mentally, and spiritually abuse those

2:17

around them for self gain. They are known to

2:20

call you selfish and blame you for anything

2:23

and everything that doesn't align with their ideal

2:26

and grand desires, which, by the

2:29

way, can change in an instant. Or they

2:32

manipulate you through using guilt, shame and

2:34

embarrassment against you.

2:37

They not only command and

2:40

demand respect and loyalty, but they

2:43

don't do what it takes to earn it, much less

2:45

retain it. And yet, we get stuck in this

2:48

loop of trying to please them, trying to make them

2:51

happy, trying to create peace

2:54

and engagement and create a better

2:56

relationship, because that's what we do.

2:59

We work on it, we stay with it until we can make

3:02

it better. Their vanity and self adoration of

3:05

their beauty also draws us in as well. The

3:08

world in their head doesn't match up to reality, but we

3:11

can never convince them of it. However,

3:14

because, we as feel good

3:17

energy women, we don't mirror those feelings. There are

3:22

aspects of ourselves that we don't feel good about.

3:25

And when we meet somebody who thinks so

3:28

highly of themselves, we can be

3:30

enamored by it. And we're also at

3:33

the same time puzzled at how much they can exaggerate their

3:36

accomplishments, make them

3:39

up, and even lie about them. And when

3:42

questioned, they masterfully turn it to the other person

3:45

being the issue or the problem or something else.

3:48

They truly think and believe they are the most important thing on

3:51

the planet. When challenged or questioned,

3:54

they criticize, blame, get angry, deny and

3:56

lie even more. They believe their lies to be

3:59

truth. And the person on the receiving

4:02

end starts to doubt themselves and

4:05

believe them, regardless of how obvious the

4:08

lie is or how much the truth

4:11

is crystal clear beyond any shadow of

4:14

doubt. In short, they are

4:16

bullyers, users, abusers,

4:18

takers, manipulators and handlers.

4:21

Their lies are truth to them, and their ideas about

4:24

themselves and the world they live in are far from reality and

4:27

what's happening in reality. And the thing is,

4:30

we have enabled them to become larger than life

4:33

monsters. And we have done

4:35

that, dare I say it,

4:38

by not having a little bit, just a

4:41

smidge of the self love,

4:44

self adoration, self

4:46

belief, self exaggeration,

4:50

self beauty, self love. By

4:53

not having that for ourselves, for those of us who care so deeply

4:59

about others in our world, we give and give

5:02

and give and give. And when we

5:05

don't have balance between the give and

5:08

receiving, and when we don't truly

5:10

honor and respect and love

5:13

ourselves, we can attract more users,

5:15

abusers, takers, manipulators and

5:18

handlers, simply through our

5:20

energy and openness to

5:23

attracting that. So really, why

5:26

are empaths so deliciously and

5:28

irresistibly attracted to narcissists

5:31

and vice versa? It's because they

5:34

exude ultra confidence, never doubt themselves,

5:37

and portray themselves as perfection and the

5:40

best at everything. It's

5:43

because they are working on

5:46

attracting people who are going to give them what they

5:48

want. It's that simple.

5:52

And those of us who are dreamers,

5:55

seekers, givers,

5:57

oh my gosh, we love helping others,

6:00

don't we? They are everything we as

6:03

empaths and carers and givers,

6:06

seekers and dreamers are not.

6:10

But they portray themselves energetically,

6:13

initially as higher, higher

6:16

self versions of ourselves. We just don't

6:18

see through their illusion of what they're

6:21

exuding until we are knee deep into their web

6:24

of deceit. You see, empaths,

6:26

seekers, givers, lovers, dreamers,

6:30

doubt themselves, unconsciously

6:32

sabotage themselves, question their confidence

6:35

and abilities. But we're always seeking

6:38

higher learning. We're always seeking betterment. We're always

6:41

seeking feeling better. And I say

6:44

that empaths, seekers, lovers, dreamers,

6:47

we practice humility, which is why we do those

6:50

things. We look within as we observe

6:53

others in our world and process that

6:55

energy. We take it on as though it is

6:58

our weight to bear. We secretly or

7:01

openly want to transform the world and our world around

7:04

us. But as we do that and

7:07

help others and attract these shadow

7:09

sides of ourselves, it's too much

7:12

weight to bear. So we take in all

7:15

that heavy energy. But here's the deal.

7:18

It does not have to be that way.

7:21

It really doesn't. I want to share

7:24

the universal, these four. There's actually four universal laws

7:27

I want to share with you and why they matter.

7:30

The law of divine oneness says that everything is

7:33

connected to everything else. So

7:35

we feel falsely that we

7:38

attracted the narcissist for a cosmic reason.

7:41

We attracted them to make a difference. We

7:44

attracted them to help them be

7:46

better, to cause transformation and

7:49

change. We come to believe that this love is

7:52

so deep that it cannot be anything else but

7:55

love. But here's the deal. It is

7:58

energetic discord designed to help us

8:00

find the oneness within, the love

8:03

within, the honor within,

8:06

and the respect within. So

8:09

that's my answer to why we may attract them.

8:13

So that we can see the oneness within and choose

8:16

something else that's better

8:19

for ourselves. The law of

8:22

perpetual transmutation of energy says that

8:25

every person has the

8:27

capacity within themselves to change

8:30

the conditions of their lives. So these higher feel good vibes consume

8:36

and transform lower ones. So we find ourselves believing with

8:42

incredible conviction that we can change the

8:44

conditions, change the condition of our lives

8:47

by staying in this relationship, because we can

8:50

change them. Until one day we

8:53

find ourselves so utterly diminished that we're faced with

8:56

choosing our life or our death,

8:58

both literally or figuratively. But here's the

9:03

thing again. The

9:05

transmutation of energy. We're not

9:08

here to do that for other people. We're here to do that

9:11

for ourselves. This law of

9:14

perpetual transmutation of energy is about

9:17

every person, each person having the

9:19

capacity within themselves to

9:22

transform the condition of their lives.

9:25

When you tie that to the law of divine oneness and your feel

9:28

good vibe, it's absolutely incredible how you

9:30

shift your energy. The law of polarity, the

9:33

third one I want to share with you, states that

9:36

everything is on a continuum and

9:39

has an opposite. In our

9:42

lopsided world of programming and social

9:44

conditioning and, frankly,

9:47

manipulation, we, as women have been thought to

9:50

think that opposites attract. Therefore, we are the issue. And there we are, the ones that need

9:55

fixing. And we've been indoctrinated into a world of

9:58

problems that are always in need of being

10:01

solved. You are a

10:03

person. You cannot be solved, and people

10:06

are not problems. This law

10:09

of polarity, for me, or the law of

10:12

duality, exists for us

10:14

to discern what feels good and what does not feel

10:17

good so that we can be adept at choosing

10:20

what feels good. You see, we wouldn't

10:23

know what feels good if we didn't experience some,

10:26

polarity or duality. But we don't have

10:29

to plug into what doesn't feel good. And we've been

10:31

taught through just about every

10:34

system. I mean, grocery stores,

10:37

products, marketing, advertising, job searching

10:41

jobs. Companies, corporations, they've

10:44

all been built out of a problem

10:47

that needs to be solved. But here's the deal.

10:50

I think that they exist today.

10:54

And today. We have so much choice

10:56

now, and we've already been through that not

10:59

feel good to where we've connected with what doesn't feel

11:02

good, that now we can choose what

11:05

does. So this law of duality and

11:08

polarity exists for us to discern

11:10

and choose what feels good, become

11:13

adept at choosing what feels good for you,

11:16

and say and invite

11:19

more yeses into your world instead of no's.

11:22

Now, in order to get there, we start with a lot of

11:25

no's. Gosh, I know. I have said

11:27

so many no's, so many

11:30

no's in my life.

11:33

But today, I sit. I sit before

11:35

you. With so many amazing yeses,

11:38

I'm saying no less and less and less.

11:41

In fact, there's very little I'm saying no to these

11:44

days. most of it resides in my

11:47

love of food. And that's where I'm saying

11:50

no and making healthy choices for myself.

11:53

Wouldn't that be wonderful for you too, to have more yeses

11:56

in your life? Some more feel good in your life?

11:59

The other law I want to share with you is the law of

12:01

gender. It states that everything in nature

12:04

is both masculine and feminine. And both are required

12:07

for life to exist. And without the

12:10

harmonic balance of both, there would be no

12:12

movement, motion or creation.

12:16

It is said that masculine energy is thought, and

12:19

feminine energy is the life force that brings that thought

12:22

into form and into reality. And so you

12:25

need both. Together, they form the creative

12:27

processes and imbalances of

12:30

the two create a false sense of lack.

12:34

And so we attract the opposite into our lives.

12:37

We attract the not feel good into our lives.

12:41

We have become imbalanced.

12:44

The world as we know it today was built in

12:47

masculine energy. And females. Women

12:53

thought that to succeed, rightfully.

12:56

So I am there too, but I'm coming out of

12:59

it is that I have to live in the masculine

13:02

world, so I have to be more masculine

13:04

energetically in order to survive and

13:06

thrive. My gosh, half my life was

13:09

spent in that energy. It

13:12

resulted in me, my body failing and,

13:15

demanding, bringing back and

13:18

restoring this balance of masculine and feminine energy.

13:21

Because you are both. So let's

13:23

start honoring both and restore

13:26

harmony to the balance of these two energies so

13:29

that you experience abundance

13:32

and start attracting more yeses and feel goodness

13:35

into your life. There's actually a fifth law that I want to

13:38

bring up, and that's the conservation of energy. And it states

13:41

that energy can neither be created or

13:44

destroyed. It can only be transferred

13:47

or changed from one form to another. Now, I'm not here to

13:50

argue the new laws of physics. There are new things being

13:52

created and discovered every single

13:55

day. But from the context of energy can

13:58

only be transferred or changed from one form to another.

14:00

It's very powerful with what I'm

14:03

talking about here, because energy just

14:06

is your feelings, your emotions, the moods,

14:08

the anger, the, words we

14:11

use, and what we do physically,

14:14

whether we're shaking our hands or expressing ourselves with

14:17

our bodies, all of that is energy, and it can

14:20

be transformed or moved. So I invite us to move our bodies in a feel good

14:25

way. I invite us to,

14:28

think about what our words and thoughts

14:31

are and whether they feel good or not,

14:33

because we can transform them.

14:36

We can transform them. So this is why

14:39

each of us who identify with not only being empaths,

14:42

but being highly emotional or sensitive

14:45

believe that we are here to save others and the world. We

14:48

are here to cause transformation, to be healers,

14:51

and most importantly, to be healed.

14:54

However, we're not here to take on the world. There is a

14:57

subtle difference there. You see, we're

15:00

not here to heal them or the world. We

15:03

are simply here to heal ourselves. Shed whatever we've been

15:05

told. That is true about having empathic

15:09

or emotional or sensitive abilities,

15:11

aka divine feminine energy.

15:15

And we're here to feel good about

15:17

ourselves. And when we feel good about

15:20

ourselves, our lives, our work and

15:23

relationships, nothing

15:26

can diminish our energy to being

15:29

small and insignificant. Once you get that you are

15:34

not here to heal others or

15:37

heal them, we find

15:40

ourselves free from the toxic bondage.

15:42

You see, we can only transform and heal ourselves in our

15:45

own energies. And through doing that,

15:48

we cause transformation and healing in others

15:50

energetically. Not actively, not by

15:53

pushing, not by suggesting, not by giving people

15:56

tools unless they come to

15:59

you and ask. And it's not the other way

16:02

around. You see, I don't prescribe to what

16:05

empaths, emotional, highly emotional, highly

16:08

sensitive, introverted seekers

16:11

or dreamers have been taught about being sponges,

16:13

being stuck in unhealthy relationships, or needing

16:16

crutches to just survive an hour in this

16:19

world. Those models, unfortunately, make us think that

16:22

it is ultra hard to live our lives

16:25

as empaths, as emotionally

16:27

astute, sensitive, beautiful

16:30

human beings. They are based on the

16:33

problem, looking for a solution model. I

16:36

believe we are not problems to be solved and I see us

16:39

as energy beings. And because we are

16:42

energy beings, we can discern what energy to take in

16:45

and what to not take in. We are not

16:47

victims of energy coming in and out. We are

16:50

choosers. But it

16:53

requires understanding our energetic map,

16:56

our own roadmap to our own unique energy.

16:59

And when you know what and how that energy

17:01

works in your body, then you can connect

17:04

with it. You will stop

17:07

becoming and being the attraction magnet for

17:10

gaslighting narcissistic behaviors from

17:13

others. It magically

17:16

shifts energetically. Not by

17:19

us physically doing something and

17:22

taking action to change others.

17:25

Notice where in your life and relationships you are being

17:28

downtrodden or highly emotional or

17:30

sensitive, triggered or defensive.

17:33

Notice what you're taking on as

17:36

energy. Notice how it feels.

17:40

And are you choosing to take it on consciously?

17:43

Or have you just taken on those behaviors in

17:46

others as energy? Because

17:48

energetically you think you are here to transform the

17:51

energy. I invite you to learn about your unique

17:54

body energy map so that you can begin to manage,

17:57

leverage and honor and respect your

18:00

personal energy system.

18:03

And know when energy is not yours, know

18:06

when it feels good and know if it doesn't and know what

18:09

to do about it in an instant

18:11

before you take it all in like a

18:14

sponge that is so full and so

18:17

heavy that you don't see a way out.

18:20

You don't see a release, all by

18:23

honoring the wisdom of your body's energy mat.
