Good Vibes, Good Life: How Self-Love Is the Key to Unlocking Your Greatness pdfdrive com

Stay clear of gossip and drama
Drama is for TV, not for real life.
Don’t play a part in someone else’s episode
in which they are the only star.
At some point, everyone will find themselves taking part in gossip. Sometimes,
they won’t even realize that they’re doing it. The worst part is that most people
actually enjoy it; they don’t think they’re being judgemental and see gossiping as
harmless. They just love the excitement of hearing juicy rumours about those
around them and passing them on – then getting a reaction. And this makes
gossiping a great way to lower your vibration!
Regardless, spreading gossip preys on our ego: we do it to try to feel good about
ourselves; to feel superior to others. It’s very often judgemental, and most
judgements stem from hatred, which is a low vibrational state that will only lead
to you inviting unpleasant experiences into your life.
As we’ve already established, every thought and word holds a powerful
vibration. When we discuss others in a negative way, we’re sending negative
energy out into the Universe. As a result, this lowers our own vibration, resulting
in toxic events in our lives that will reproduce ill feelings. 
Ayurveda
, 
the
ancient
Indian medical system, says gossiping affects some of our energy centres,
known as chakras. This actively restricts us from ascending to higher vibrational
states.
News outlets profit from gossip by publicizing other people’s misfortune.
Luckily for them, some people buy into it. As a result, it’s become socially

acceptable to discuss other people. Yet everyone knows they wouldn’t like it if
they
were the subject of gossip.
So, distance yourself from conversations about others, or try to direct the
discussion to something more positive. You’ll notice that, more often or not,
people who spend their time gossiping are the ones who seem to complain or
find comfort in misery. If you join them in their habits, you’ll gradually become
disillusioned with life, too.
Similarly, getting swept up in unnecessary drama can heighten both stress and
anxiety. This puts you in a lower emotional state and, as you already know by
now, this reflects undesirably on your life. Why give up your joy?
I’ve learned to avoid drama at all costs because it does nothing good for me. I
once came across a high-drama person who attempted to argue with me about a
point I’d made. Ironically, my point had been that we should walk away from
fights because they can destruct our peace, but he didn’t believe that we should.
When I kindly told him that I respected our differences and we should move on,
he got angry. If I’d felt he was actually interested in my perspective, I’d have
been happy to share it and listen to his. However, he only wanted to argue, to
prove me wrong and drag me down.
His ears were shut and his mouth was open: he wasn’t ready to learn, only to
dictate. Our beliefs were different and he got really worked up by it. To him, I
was spreading false information and creating further suffering in the world with
my viewpoint. This anger was followed by personal abuse directed towards me,
