There is a great deal of scientific information out there that proves that we are made of energy.  It’s what propels us forward and it’s what we need to feel good and alive.  You know if you have been eating too much of the wrong food or drinking too much alcohol and not doing any exercise that your energy levels will drop and stay fairly low until you make some positive changes.

However, have you ever noticed that some people seem to drain you of your energy?  In meetings, social occasions or just casually bumping into someone can sometimes leave you feeling like you’ve had someone turn your energy tap on and drained the lot out of you.  I’m sure you know the people I’m talking about – the girl with relationship problems who you keep trying to help but the relationship never seems to improve or end, the mate with the dreadful boss who keeps asking your advice but has been in the job for years and the family member who talks and talks to you about their lives and problems but never seems to be interested in what’s going on in your life.  I’m sure we can all identify someone like that in our lives.

Many of us are very happy giving away our energy by the bucketload because we care enough about something or someone to do so. However, what happens if after a day of happy energy giving that you find yourself in the company of an Energy Vampire?  You’re pretty much done for!  Not only could you find yourself drained of energy but you might also have that niggling worm of resentment and negativity starting to wriggle away in your everyday thoughts.

Energy Vampires in the main do not consciously try and drain us of our energy, they just do what works for them because after they’ve been with sympathetic, caring, giving you – they feel great!

If you lose energy through having someone ‘take’ it from you, even if it is unconsciously, logic dictates that you need to find some energy from somewhere else.  I have discovered that the best way of recovering my energy reserves is to do the things I love such as meditation, yoga or just being by myself not doing much.

What you may find is that once you have identified your EV you will begin to ‘see’ them draining you of your energy.  You might even find that you can change your way of interacting with them that stops them from taking it from you.

Do you know who your EV is? And do you know what you do or need to do to recharge?  Please write and let me know your thoughts – I would love to hear from you.  And as I promise to reply to all messages you can have some of my energy for free and with my love!
