However, if someone throws their negativity at you (family member or stranger) by criticizing, condemning or taunting you, it is up to you what you do about it.

Or put another way, it's not what happens - it's how you handle it.

My perspective on this piece is allow someone to have their drama. Accept that it's only their ego or maybe their "painbody" as Eckhart calls it. You still love and accept the person but you don't have to accept the criticizing, condemning or taunting.

As you become more aware through regular meditation you have the choice to react sub-consciously with your own ego or painbody (making matters worse by increasing negative energy), consciously respond by being aware of the situation or if you cannot tolerate being in the presence of it, remove yourself from its presence.

By becoming more aware I believe you can differentiate between the person you care about and their and your ego, giving you more choices to build relationships rather than tear them down with the drama which will only cause later regrets.

This is how I understand it anyway - hope it makes it more clear for you and I wish you peace, joy and much awareness on your journey

Great advice I'll ditto that

Thanks that is exactly what I needed to read. I am finding a change within myself, even though it is very small at the moment since I have been using life flow. I am living with a very negative and argumentative person and was becoming stressed by everything they seem to be throwing at me. Almost like they also see the change and are pushing harder to find that unbalanced side of me (better known as the pain body). It is difficult but I will not let them affect me. I will let their storms blow right past
