Dear Debbie Young,

 

I loved reading your post...My name, too, is Deb...

 

"It came to a head last night when I decided that it's time to be gently

honest with her and begin to limit contact. Do other people feel as

sensitive as this to overbearing personalities?"

 

I feel very sensitive to this. In some ways, it has contributed to the

ending of some relationships, but also to the beginning of other

relationships. I am not quite as nice of a neighbor as I once was, to

everyone, because I realize now what I didn't know then...That I have

nothing to prove.

 

I also find, and you may see this as well, that when you are doing a lot

of physical and spiritual work on yourself, that your aura grows in size

and draws more people in...It can be a curse and a blessing both at

once. I find that the people who are overbearing, loud, talk talk talk

talk talk, are the people who seem to need the most help; the lonliest,

the darkest, the most negative, and the ones most likely to benefit from

therapy of some kind. These people are NOT the same people that come to

me specifically asking for my help. These people don't know HOW to ask

for help, and in some cases, may not be ready to admit that they even

need help.

 

You are the light, to them...I think that any meditations that focus on

the heart are best...But also perhaps a bit of protection? I'll let the

experts address this!

 

All Best,

Deb

Hi Debbie,

I don't you personally, but an overbearing person will step into any space or

void left unoccupied. Anything that builds your aura will help fill that space

with you. Your very presence will speak for you and precede you. The other

person will get it on some level that they are just filling space......maybe.

When

you are feeling non-reactive and meditative, try, gently, get that person to

<focus> on their behavior. Some people are just overbearing and ridiculously in

denial, and sometimes even manipulative.

Good luck, at any rate,

Dharam
