Spotting Genuine Healers: Avoiding the Frauds
A true healer creates space so that you can heal yourself. Someone who is symptom managing oftentimes takes Years and you don't actually necessarily get somewhere.
Ever wondered if the person helping you heal is the real deal or just a pretender? In this eye-opening episode of the 'Narcissism Recovery Podcast', Yitz Epstein dives into the tricky world of healers. He breaks down the telltale signs of true healers versus those who are just in it for their own gain. True healers, according to Yitz, are humble and view themselves as both leaders and followers. They don’t hide behind fancy titles or crave constant admiration.
Instead, they focus on empowering their clients to connect with their higher selves and become self-reliant. They see their clients as valuable individuals and aim to guide them towards independence, not dependence. On the flip side, fraudulent healers often have a god complex and view competitors as threats. They are quick to give advice but rarely take it themselves. These so-called healers can be spiritually abusive, addicted to power, and more interested in creating followers than leaders.
Yitz stresses the importance of self-awareness and regularly checking in with oneself to ensure personal growth is on the right track. This episode is a must-listen for anyone on a healing journey, offering valuable insights on how to choose the right guide for your path.
