Most conscious way to deal with bullies?

[EternalForest]

Wanted to get your opinions.

To me, it seems the best way is to just learn martial arts. Ignore verbal abuse, and if physical abuse begins, use self-defense techniques.

@EternalForest Remain conscious, stand your ground, and be willing to JUDO THROW them if things get physical.

Bullies are great teachers. And you are theirs.

If you want to be more conscious than them you have to make them unconscious. Just kidding. I just ignore bullies until they physically attack me. And then I defend myself.

I was at a concert, my daughter and her friend were complaining about bullies to an amazing man, who has decided he would teach them spiritually, whenever they are in need. He told them what I already know. What I have been doing myself with my bully, though it can be very, very, hard. I am glad my daughter is learning this young. The best way to respond to bullies is: to send them LOVE energetically (and sometimes verbally if it is safe to do so). No matter how toxic they behave outwardly, they are suffering inside. See the love enter you from the universe, feel it fill your heart, and then blast it out to them, genuinely & completely showering them in love (and maybe top yourself up too after the bullying).

THE most conscious way of responding to bullies is with love and inclusion.

"When someone hits you in the face, you show them the other cheek." Something like that was said by Jesus

Wise words.

Learn martial arts. I used to be fearful when I was younger. I took MMA for 6 years and now am a blackbelt. Knowing you can take care of yourself completely changes how you carry yourself. Carry yourself differently and people treat you differently (including women).

@EternalForest what about emotional abuse? especially from a manager?

[EternalForest]

@Sahil Pandit Agreed. Thanks for responding to all my threads, even though I don't always respond back, wanted to say I appreciate it. 

@SpaceCowboy  Hm, never thought of it that way.

@Eric Tarpall lmao

@Epiphany_Inspired @Salvijus Sending love back is definitely valuable.

@Matt8800 I'm going to start learning it very soon.

@Wyze Report them to HR.

Indeed. Everything that arises in your life is a way and opportunity for you to become more aware and closer to liberation. Now this can be extremely hard to do, but it is amazing that it is like that. You can see for yourself that you get rewarded by seeing a teacher in everything.

Allow them to think they can get away with things, so it destroys their soul.
