If you’ve ever been in a toxic relationship with a narcissist, you may have experienced various symptoms of PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder) as a result of suffering from narcissistic emotional and mental abuse.
Over the next few weeks, I’ll be presenting a series on mindfulness as it relates to narcissistic abuse recovery. Before I dig in, though, I want to explain how and why this works so effectively for victims and survivors of narcissistic abuse.
One of the most common issues that my narcissism support coaching clients tell me they have is feeling like they’re “not really here,” as though they’re on a sort of numb-autopilot as they float through life, surrounded by some kind of barrier between themselves and the world. Everything feels sort of foggy and surreal.
In this video, I’ll define mindfulness and explain why it’s such an important practice for those who are going through narcissistic abuse recovery. Plus, I’ll offer simple to implement tips to help you get your own narcissistic abuse recovery plan underway (or to help increase your current level of happiness).

The study found that people who lie, cheat and act without empathy are more likely to get into gambling problems. And because they also tend not to use strategies that would keep them safe from such problems, making those issues worse – and making them more likely to ruin their own lives and the lives of anyone unfortunate enough to be close to them, including their closest sources of narcissistic supply.
Narcissists get away with shocking emotional and psychological abuse in their relationships, but why? In addition to the sense of entitlement that makes them feel they deserve special treatment, attention, and admiration….here’s why. Intermittent reinforcement can lead to trauma bonding….the narcissist’s need for control may only be exceeded by their desire to be recognized as superior—a trait that can manifest in controlling other people’s lives.
