Mastering the Observe Don't Absorb Technique: Ross Rosenberg's Guide to Handling Narcissistic Abuse

If you identify with codependency, which I renamed the self-love deficit disorder, or you're caught in the crosshairs of narcissistic abuse or gaslighting, you've come to the right place.
Ever felt like you're constantly battling with a narcissist and always coming out worse for wear? In this episode of The Self-Love Recovery Podcast, Ross Rosenberg introduces the 'Observe Don't Absorb Technique' (ODA), a strategy designed to help you stay grounded when dealing with toxic individuals. Inspired by George Bernard Shaw's saying, 'Never wrestle with pigs.
You'll get dirty, and besides, the pig likes it', Ross uses vivid metaphors to illustrate how narcissists thrive in their 'wrestling ring' of emotional manipulation. Ross draws on his extensive experience and personal journey to explain how ODA can help you avoid getting dragged into these harmful dynamics. By observing the narcissist without absorbing their negativity, you can maintain your emotional stability and break free from their control.
The episode is packed with practical advice on identifying 'pig narcissist wrestlers', understanding the 'physical and emotional wrestling rings', and learning to dissociate from toxic thoughts and feelings. Ross also touches on how to use humor and defensive fantasies to protect yourself emotionally. If you're tired of feeling like you're losing every battle with a narcissist, this episode offers a fresh perspective and actionable steps to reclaim your peace of mind.
Tune in to discover how you can neutralize narcissistic abuse and embrace a life of self-love and emotional freedom.
