“Dealing” With a Difficult Person
Visualize the person with whom you’re having difficulty as a perfect, enlightened being radiating a pure, tranquil light, says Sluyter. But she’s stuck in an eggshell, and all the actions you find difficult or problematic are just this person trying to peck away at that shell. Now visualize yourself gently helping to peel away that shell so she can become her best, enlightened self. Next time you see that individual, you’ll frame your relationship in this new context.
