After falling victim to narcissistic abuse, people will often worry about how they can protect themselves from it happening again… Here’s my advice.
🤍 Define your values. What guides your decisions and behaviors? Defining clear values like honesty, empathy, or independence will set the groundwork. From there, who you choose to allow into your life will naturally align.
🤍 Clarify your moral code. In short, set boundaries. What won’t you stand for? What is non-negotiable to you? Once you’ve decided on your own guidelines, it will be easier to adhere to them in your relationships.
🤍 Shrink your inner critic. So much of the choices we make stem from the way we value (or devalue) ourselves. If you can tune out the negative voice, and show yourself love and praise, you’ll naturally surround yourself with people who value you the same.
This is just the starting point. Let’s grow from here, and go Beyond Healing together. 🌸
