Not everyone goes through life with the same intentions, values and standards as you. It is an inevitable truth of life that toxic people will occasionally show up on our paths. They can pop up any time, sometimes disguised as “friends”, family members, colleagues or strangers. You might think you attracted negativity and toxicity when you are in a lower vibration and state of mind, but in fact toxic people can show up in any of our lives. We can’t control the presence of toxic people in our lives, but we can control how we respond to them. We have to prepare ourselves, and the most important first step in that is to be able to recognize toxic behaviour. Setting boundaries is the essential next step. By prioritizing our well-being, we can minimize the impact of toxicity and protect ourselves from unnecessary harm. Remember, encountering toxic people is not a reflection of your worth or value, it’s simply a part of life’s journey that teaches us valuable lessons about resilience, self-care, and the importance of surrounding ourselves with positivity and support.
