We've all encountered toxic people, and maybe even lived through intense toxic situations and relationships. Maybe you're living through one right now. Toxic people often come disguised as friends, colleagues, or even worse your own family, which makes it hard to recoginze that they will drag you down, preventing you from getting the most out of life. But in the words of Kamand Kojouri: "Some people are in such utter darkness that they will burn you just to see a light. Try not to take it personally.” Our friend Ayfer can tell a thousand stories about what that's really like - living with people who set out to burn you. Recognizing, understanding and overcoming such experiences is within our power, and doing so will change your life for the better. So listen in for some examples and suggestions on how to free yourself.
In this episode we introduce the concept of toxicity, a topic that is generating huge amounts of interest in the world today. Unfortunately, we all experience toxicitiy in our lives, some of it self-created and some of it imposed on us by outside influences (often other people). Toxic influences impact our well-being and they prevent us from living our best life - from being our happiest and healthiest selves. Which is why we at Alphaweibchen want to help with toxic rehab: because we are all about getting the most out of life!!! The more that we can get rid of toxicity, the less drama we'll experience, the happier we'll be and the more we'll enjoy all the positives.
Some examples of toxic influences:
We focus most on toxic relationships in this episode, and in parallel we'll be addressing other aspects of toxicity. So stay tuned to our posts, stories and videos as we share wisdom gathered through experience and research about how to live a more toxic-free life. In addition, the Alphaweibchen team started a 7 - 14 day detox program yesterday (diet intense as we cut out everything addictive or damaging: sugar, alcohol, caffeine, animal products, gluten AND mind/body focused as we do more meditation, reflection, exercise and sauna / massage). This is a great opportunity to make a re-set, take inventory of what is toxic in life and begin reducing or eliminating it. We'll be sharing our experiences and if you're interested in joining us on the journey, get in touch! We'll happier share the details!
