Lots of people I worked with are thoughtful individuals who make considerable efforts to better themselves and apply spiritual values to their everyday lives by focusing only on what they are doing, not on others’ flaws.
But I speak for all of us when I say that, despite this kind of positive efforts, we are still hindered by those stealing our energy.
How do we manage our interactions with them? How do we react when they become overbearing? How do we maintain a proper attitude towards them on the long term, not just for a month or so?
We’re working on our path towards spiritual betterment.
But most importantly, we’re ever hungry to learn more about how to identify toxic behaviours. In this effort, I am by your side and I am determined to give you some support with that. So, here are 5 energy-stealing types you may encounter throughout your daily journeys.
Intimidators rely on threats or threatening attitude to get what they want. And what they want is feeling in charge, be it at the workplace or in relationships.
They get their sense of fulfilment out of exerting power (and stealing energy) over others and often get an inflated impression on their real powers. Just because more passive persons submitted to their requests doesn’t mean they are in a genuine position of power.
Ever complaining about the smallest of happenings coming their way, these people are stealing our energy in a subtle manner.
By constant complaints, they require our undivided attention which is more demanding on our energy level than we’d think. That’s why we suddenly feel annoyed at this seemingly harmless conduct of others.
Plus, we may even feel guilty for not being able to sympathize with their minor struggles.
This is another category of people who are thirsty for non-stop attention, but they’re draining your energy more overtly.
They’re loud and you can immediately spot when you’re running out of patience with their approach.
These people cannot spot signals of disinterest coming from their interlocutors.
The problem with them is that they don’t realize they’re putting you down.
They feel their experience entitles them to warn you, make you cautious, point out every single negative aspect, no matter how minor it is.
Always looking to know everything, these people present an almost pathological tendency to confine themselves and others to very well-defined situations.
And because they’re putting so much thought into every detail, they naturally have the impression they know it all and they should let everyone know that.
These people have the best intentions and often suffer from the backlash of their own perfectionism, but they just don’t realize they require too much energy from the others.
We have to understand – in a deep, assumed manner – that people listed above have serious energy blockages stopping them from recognizing the effects of their acts.
We may have been like that as well. Maybe we still have such tendencies.
But you’re here because you sensed, to some extent, your star seed nature. And that means you can manage your inner life better. You are actively working towards inner enlightenment and you are able to understand.
So, I say to you:
Keep walking confidently on this path.
Keep inspiring other people to act like you.
Keep shining and spreading the light you’re carrying within.
Tell those stealing our energy that they’re better than that. Tell them to join you.
I’ll be lovingly waiting for them – and you as well – to introduce them to my guided meditation healing sessions and allow them to unearth the light they carry.

We firmly believe that the internet should be available and accessible to anyone, and are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of circumstance and ability.
To fulfill this, we aim to adhere as strictly as possible to the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) at the AA level. These guidelines explain how to make web content accessible to people with a wide array of disabilities. Complying with those guidelines helps us ensure that the website is accessible to all people: blind people, people with motor impairments, visual impairment, cognitive disabilities, and more.
This website utilizes various technologies that are meant to make it as accessible as possible at all times. We utilize an accessibility interface that allows persons with specific disabilities to adjust the website’s UI (user interface) and design it to their personal needs.
Additionally, the website utilizes an AI-based application that runs in the background and optimizes its accessibility level constantly. This application remediates the website’s HTML, adapts Its functionality and behavior for screen-readers used by the blind users, and for keyboard functions used by individuals with motor impairments.
If you’ve found a malfunction or have ideas for improvement, we’ll be happy to hear from you. You can reach out to the website’s operators by using the following email
Our website implements the ARIA attributes (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) technique, alongside various different behavioral changes, to ensure blind users visiting with screen-readers are able to read, comprehend, and enjoy the website’s functions. As soon as a user with a screen-reader enters your site, they immediately receive a prompt to enter the Screen-Reader Profile so they can browse and operate your site effectively. Here’s how our website covers some of the most important screen-reader requirements, alongside console screenshots of code examples:
Screen-reader optimization: we run a background process that learns the website’s components from top to bottom, to ensure ongoing compliance even when updating the website. In this process, we provide screen-readers with meaningful data using the ARIA set of attributes. For example, we provide accurate form labels; descriptions for actionable icons (social media icons, search icons, cart icons, etc.); validation guidance for form inputs; element roles such as buttons, menus, modal dialogues (popups), and others. Additionally, the background process scans all the website’s images and provides an accurate and meaningful image-object-recognition-based description as an ALT (alternate text) tag for images that are not described. It will also extract texts that are embedded within the image, using an OCR (optical character recognition) technology. To turn on screen-reader adjustments at any time, users need only to press the Alt+1 keyboard combination. Screen-reader users also get automatic announcements to turn the Screen-reader mode on as soon as they enter the website.
These adjustments are compatible with all popular screen readers, including JAWS and NVDA.
Keyboard navigation optimization: The background process also adjusts the website’s HTML, and adds various behaviors using JavaScript code to make the website operable by the keyboard. This includes the ability to navigate the website using the Tab and Shift+Tab keys, operate dropdowns with the arrow keys, close them with Esc, trigger buttons and links using the Enter key, navigate between radio and checkbox elements using the arrow keys, and fill them in with the Spacebar or Enter key.Additionally, keyboard users will find quick-navigation and content-skip menus, available at any time by clicking Alt+1, or as the first elements of the site while navigating with the keyboard. The background process also handles triggered popups by moving the keyboard focus towards them as soon as they appear, and not allow the focus drift outside it.
Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.
We aim to support the widest array of browsers and assistive technologies as possible, so our users can choose the best fitting tools for them, with as few limitations as possible. Therefore, we have worked very hard to be able to support all major systems that comprise over 95% of the user market share including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera and Microsoft Edge, JAWS and NVDA (screen readers).
Despite our very best efforts to allow anybody to adjust the website to their needs. There may still be pages or sections that are not fully accessible, are in the process of becoming accessible, or are lacking an adequate technological solution to make them accessible. Still, we are continually improving our accessibility, adding, updating and improving its options and features, and developing and adopting new technologies. All this is meant to reach the optimal level of accessibility, following technological advancements. For any assistance, please reach out to
