Well I personally believe that there are more monsters within our own- selves then outside. Whenever I have done that inner work I have seen those monsters disappearing from my life. There are all sorts of people coming across in our lives, some pleasant and some being very tough to manage. Energy, is what I always believe in and talk of. Setting this energy right will get rid of many of these monsters, but yes not always. Some are these forceful ones like the so called Energy Vampires.

To an extent our Mental health does help decide how to tackle with these monsters, but some have such dark energy that they can easily sweep us off. 
The one way that I have learnt to deal with these type of people is cutting off completely and doing Cord cutting with them on regular basis so that they keep away from my space at all levels.

Thankfully in the last few years I have not attracted any such people in my life. I have been very careful at the very first step and as soon as I find them toxic in any manner I just cut off completely with them. But yes in past I have had many and I know how I used to feel drained out, even in their absence just thinking of them, and I used to feel it's not worth at all, giving away my good energy to them and allowing them to feed on it. Some of them being my own family members, it was difficult to cut off, but then I had to make that decision for my own good and when I did that, trust me it was such a big difference to my life.

I have learned to be happy with my own-self and hence I now prefer to be alone then having such people around me. 
Why do I need any such person who cannot be of any good to me and who can suck out the life from me?
The thing is that dealing with people is always an exchange of energy. People either uplift us… or they don’t.
But we need to be the guardian of our own energetic space. And to live a healthy, happy, and positive life, it is absolutely vital that  we surround our-self with people who promote the same way of living. There have been many a times where I have preferred to be alone completely but not get involved with such people. I do not feel scared to be by myself, but yes I do get scared to be with such monsters. Again no one comes with a tag on them so it is about the feeling that we get while dealing with them and this feeling can never go wrong.

<strong>My Tolerance level and Mental Health</strong>
Anxiety, depression, stress or any of these creating an internal chaos are our own seeded monsters and the most difficult to deal with. But we need to remember that we were never born with these within us. We created them and hence we also have the capability of destroying them.
Lately I have been hit with so much that yes it would have taken me down very easily in some way or the other, but thankfully because of my practices now since years I have been able to manage them so well. First my hubby's health and then my major loss of investments, both of them have been ground shaking for me. I was not sure if my hubby would make it, losing my years of hard earned money and having to start again, all of this had almost got me caught up, but I did get out of it soon. And with that now I am sure that the inner work I have been practicing is really helping me to deal with all these monsters internally and externally very well. 

**The practices that have helped me gain this stability are:**
- Regular Grounding and Shielding 
- Daily Meditation and Chanting
- Chord cutting with people and situation -this one has helped me the most in dealing with toxic people. 

One needs to deal with is Self to be able to keep all of these away. The only thing I now bother is that I want a healthy life and anything that comes in it's way needs to be chucked out. Nothing is more important for me then my own good health physically and mentally.
