The Art and Science of Dealing with Toxic People and Relationships

If you do a quick online search of 'toxic people,' the overwhelming advice you'll find is to cut these people out of your life. But that's easier said than done, especially if these so-called 'toxic' people are family, colleagues, or other people with whom we live or work closely.

We've all been around those people who can leave us feeling drained or a bit 'off' after an encounter with them. Some people can leave us feeling agitated or annoyed or even just feeling really bad about ourselves. The most important thing you need to understand when dealing with someone like this is -  Their behavior towards you has nothing to do with you, and more often reflects their inner mental and emotional state. Identifying their harmful behavior is the first step to minimizing their impact. You might not be able to change what they do, but you can change what you do with it.

Humans are social beings. There is an inherent need in all of us to socialize and interact, but not everyone that walks into our lives has our best interest in their minds. We all have come across toxic people, but the situation can become ugly when you are involved in a relationship with that toxic person. These unhealthy patterns hold us back and generate a lot of suffering. They condition our reactions and responses in a way that is not serving our highest purpose. So, how can you stand up for yourself and confront this unhealthy relationship? This book will provide you with all the tools necessary to heal these toxic relationships and move forward.

The symptoms of being entangled in a toxic relationship are anger, resentment, frustration, sadness, feeling powerless, addictions, unhealthy control issues, obsession, and feeling manipulated and not respected. No relationship is indeed perfect, but at the same time, it does not mean that you will allow the other person to manipulate you or emotionally abuse you. Remember that when you are in a relationship with the wrong person, it can affect your day-to-day life from the very core and completely alter your sense of self-confidence.
