Going on from what Astro said, I thought I'de tell you about
'Energy Vampires' (not a great site to explain, but it will do)
I've had a few encounters with people that just literally suck the life out of you. The first time I was aware of such creatures was shortly after doing my Reiki 1. I was working on a client who was very unresponsive and just didn't seem to be enjoying the massage. Afterwards she said very little, and just left. Normally after working on someone, I feel good, regardless whether or not I think I helped much. After this woman, I felt awefull. It took me a long time to walk back to the train station, when I got home I had a shower and had to sit down cos I didn't have the energy to stand up. I continued to feel like this for a few days. When I saw my reiki teacher again, he put me down on a table and ran his hands over my aura (whether or not you believe any of this is up to you, but there were several others around) and when he came to my Solar Plexus, his hands dropped considerably. He said I literally had no energy there and had had it sucked out of me
. After about an hour or two, he managed to make me feel much much better and I was able to concentrate for the first time in days. Ever since I have been carefull not to allow such a thing to happen again.
Now imagine a situation like the above happening over several years or even months! No wonder sometimes people in bad relationships end up as shadows of their former selves!
Maybe part of what makes a ba*tard is that they sap your energy from you!
