GASLIGHTING…

Do you even know what gaslighting means?

Gaslighting: A form of psychological manipulation in which the abuser attempts to sow self-doubt and confusion in their victims mind. Typically gas lighters are seeking to gain power & control over a person by distorting reality & forcing them to question their own judgment and intuition

Is there someone that comes to mind when you hear that? What do you do when that has happened to you?

We often talk about standing in your power & own your power.

Don’t go into this victim mentality, ask yourself if you stood up for yourself if you spoke your truth & communicated the way you KNOW you should have.

Oftentimes people push your boundaries to see how far they can push. Maybe they are gaslighting you and manipulating you, maybe they are just seeing how far they can push you.

Before you start to blame someone for gaslighting you, maybe you should take a good hard look at yourself & think… Did I allow that to happen?

Oftentimes we lay blame on another person, but the reality is, we play an equal part.

If you feel like you’re being manipulated by someone, instead of spiraling down all your stories, stand in your power & VOICE your opinion.

Do you avoid conflict by letting yourself get walked all over or do you use your voice & stand in your power?

Communicating doesn’t have to be hard. It's only hurting YOU by not communicating & sharing how you really feel.
