Have you already heard of the bubble technique? There are people who “charge” us with all their problems. The nagging colleague, the problematic friend, the pressured relative. People who tend, in general, to throw their problems at you.
Knowing how to “defend” oneself from people who do not give us respite and who overturn all their anxieties and their problems every time they meet us is fundamental. How?
How can we “defend ourselves” from those who suck our energy?
There are people excessively negative who, at times, tend to complain a lot, to devalue what is around them and to communicate their negative vision to anyone who comes in front of them. This has an impact on the listener: it reduces theirpower and the psycho-physical wellbeing.
This interfacing is not at all easy to manage. However, there is a solution to everything (or almost!). And also to protect yourself from these people or these encounters there are some techniques to consider, specifically, there is one that is considered very useful.
The bubble technique is a way to protect yourself and defend yourself from who “takes” too much energy from us with negative talk, constant complaints, and unsolvable problems. Everyone fights his own battle, and it is not always appropriate to “load” the other with all our problems.
Understandable one vent. But if this continues over time it will be heavy on the person with whom you have decided to talk about it.
More trivially, the bubble technique is none other than one’s own imagination. When dealing with these “energy sucking” people, you have to tap into your own imagination. Why?
Bubble technique: what is it and how does it work?
The bubble technique refers to a living space that we all have since birth. The living space is where we move, let people in or out, we dedicate to activities that make us feel good. Anyone has the right to protect e protect this living space from the negative intrusion of other people. In this bubble, it is only hosts and you decide independently how to manage that particular space.
When you talk to a person who takes energy from you, you need to remember that you have one bubble that protects us. An imagined bubble that protects us from possible “bumps”Caused by others. You have to imagine the bubble as one protection membrane which in practice serves a filter even what we are told. We can trivially to nod to those who charge us with their problems, but, in the meantime, activate that bubble that filters and protects against words, phrases and attitudes that do not deserve attention from our part.
