How to protect yourself and your happiness from other people’s envy. Simple habits, healthy boundaries, and what to do when you already feel the effect.
I have already written separately about the signs of the evil eye. This time I want to talk about the other side: how to protect yourself from envy and the evil eye so that they do not reach you at all. Envy is one of the most common heavy thoughts I come across. It can come from a neighbour, a colleague, a former partner or even a relative.
Why envy has an effect
A thought is energy. When someone thinks about you strongly and for a long time with anger or envy, that energy reaches you. We are most vulnerable when we are tired, exhausted, or doubting ourselves. A strong, calm person “catches” other people’s thoughts far less.
Show less, protect more
Our elders used to say: do not boast until it is done. There is a lot of wisdom in that. Share news of new plans, a pregnancy, a new job or a big purchase first only with the people closest to you, the ones you truly trust. Be more careful with social media. Every happy photo is seen by more than just your friends. This is not fear, just simple caution.
Healthy boundaries
Notice which people leave you feeling heavier, emptier or irritated. If it keeps happening, see them less, or keep your contact short and to the point. You do not have to tell everything about your life just because someone asks. You can politely say “everything is fine” and change the subject. A boundary is not anger. It is simply clarity about what is yours and what is not.
Everyday habits that make you stronger
Strong energy is the best protection. Sleep well and spend a lot of time in nature, especially in the forest and by water. When you come home after a difficult meeting, wash, change your clothes and air the room. Keep your home tidy and full of light. And do not hold an angry response inside: if you answer envy with envy, you only strengthen your bond with that person. Wish them well and let it go. The less attention you give to someone else’s envy, the less power it has. Your calm and your joy are the best shield.
Just do not start suspecting everyone around you. Not every setback is someone’s evil eye. Sometimes it is simply tiredness, a health problem or the ordinary flow of life. If you are unsure about how you feel, see a doctor first. Bioenergy healing complements their help, but it does not replace it.
When the envy comes from someone close
It is hardest when envy comes not from a stranger but from someone close: a sister, a friend, a mother in law, a colleague you work with every day. You cannot simply cross such a person out of your life. Calm, clear boundaries help here. Talk with them about everyday things, and keep your dreams and plans for those who are happy for you. Do not try to prove your worth or justify your success. The more you explain yourself, the more you feed the envy. Remember that an envious person is usually suffering themselves: they feel not good enough and unhappy. That does not excuse their behaviour, but it helps you not to answer with anger and not to take their heaviness on yourself.
When you already feel the effect
If after a particular person or event your wellbeing suddenly got worse, and setbacks, insomnia or anxiety began, it is worth getting checked. During diagnostics I see whether there is someone else’s energy, and I remove it. Afterwards we discuss together how to protect yourself in future: which boundaries are worth drawing, who to be more careful with, and how to recover your strength quickly after difficult meetings. If heavy energy is felt in your home as well, I can cleanse it too.
If you have any questions, give me a call. The first phone conversation is free, and the consultation can take place at my studio in Kaišiadorys or remotely from a photo.
Through diagnosis I help you understand the causes of feeling unwell and of repeated setbacks. During correction your original inner state is restored: anxiety, fear and heaviness simply let go.
