No, I am not talking about a battery. I am talking about energy. Specifically energy that people give off. Over the past few months I have noticed the different effects that the energy people give can have on me. If some of you can remember, I had an unwanted guest in my house for a few weeks, about a month or so ago. In a nutshell, she was really bad news. She was stealing, and lying. I was pretty sure she was into drugs too. Well, the negative energy she was putting off was effecting me in such a bad way. I was sad, angry and on edge all the time. It was also making my dog very sick. You know how they say that animals can sense negative energy from people, well I truly believe that after that event. On the other hand, my friend Beckey gives off such positive energy. When she walks into the room if feels like sunshine fills the room. My mood instantly lifts and I can't help but to feel happy. I am not an overly angry or an overly happy person. But in each of these situations it was one extreme to the other. From then on, I really try to surround myself with people who give off positive energy. Can you sense the energy people give off? How does it make you feel? What are your thoughts on this?

Yes I sure many people can sense that kind of energy from people. I agree surround yourself with positive energy, it make you feel so much better. Sorry to hear about your unwanted guest and doing what she was doing, that's not good.

I am just happy my unwanted guest is long gone. I am happy with the people who are in my life right now. It took a long time to get the right people in my life, both in person and online. I don't put up with much anymore.

I hadn't thought about the effects that people have on me as positive or negative energy but it's a good way of looking at it.

@T_gray I will be more aware of it in future. Even being aware of stuff like this helps a person cope with it I think.

I do agree with you. When my cousin lived with us for a little bit she was also stealing from us and lying-just very sneaky all the time-about everything, even things that did not matter at all. I began to realize that I was getting jumpy and annoyed more easily with her there. It was not a good experience at all. Absolutely people can give off positive or negative energy.

Yeah, that's not good at all. Sounds like you were in the same situation as I was. They just make you feel all around not good at all

I sense it so much that there are not many people I can be around for sure. It is really affecting a person when people are so negative. I sense it a lot. I am sorry you had that in your house. You could burn some sage to get the negativity out of the house now.

Absolutely, my cousin did burn sage for me actually. He wanted to bring my house back to normal again. My cousin said he could feel that my house wasn't happy after that.

Yes, I can feel negative/positive energy from people also. Sometimes even not knowing the person I can sense a bad feeling although I try not to judge but it's just their actions.

I do not keep company with negative people anymore. They sap your energy too much and it is pointless to waste time with them.

Yes I can. When I'm around negative people for any length of time I'm negative and not a person anyone wants to be around. So yes, I do my best to be around positive people, it makes me positive too and I even feel good about myself.

Hi, I've been in stiutations like that, and honeslty ive learned as long as we close are self in letting that vibe come in we are set! Tell yourself why am I going to get in the same level as them? why should I be unhappy cause of them? why do I care if they don't like me? I shall smile and send out nothing but love. just stay positive and happy, take it for a run, sing out loud, laugh, invite becky over, or call her whatever it is annoy them with happiness. hope everything goes well, and remember you are the only person who chooses to be happy!despite all the bad vibes, put that crown on and smile it off like a boss (;

The positive and negative energy always affect our life and mind .The positivity fulfill ourselves in our work, in attitude , in our beauty ,in our relations but the negativity pushes to us in a mud of thoughts ,laziness,so many otherbad activities.
