We are born feeding. The umbilical chord is a symbolic reminder, a connection we share with all of life. It goes without saying that we would perish without feeding. How effectively we feed is easily observable from healthy feeds to the sick ones – including disorders of feeding – though we have to consume, we can choose how we do it.

I am speaking of the intensity of a subtle energy feed. It’s useful to judge people and things as threat or benefit to survival. It’s another thing altogether to judge specific value or worthiness in order to feed on the negative energy that comes from defending against such measurements.

Perhaps you’re feeling unfulfilled, dissatisfied, or emotionally weak and drained. If so, GREAT! You’re providing maximum feed benefit – WAY TO GO!!

There are many ways of devouring negative energy that can determine the intensity of a feed. Here are some ideas to help you maximize the intensity of your feeds:

1. Conserve energy… Look for a victim who is ripe for the picking. Select what’s closest to the ground, the low hanging fruit – the weak, the vulnerable and the easy mark. Why work harder than you have to? It’s all about return on your feed investment.
2. SHOW NO MERCY!.. Some feeds backfire and you wind up being fed upon by others as well as yourself. Don’t make your loved ones miss out – show them no mercy either.
3. Share the Feed… There’s a bonus in devouring someone’s life force energy when others join in. With luck it can turn into a feeding frenzy. Besides, their proximity can be to your benefit (refer to items 1 and 2 above).
4. Deflect… Never, ever, look at yourself. Always make it look like the problem is with THEM rather than with you. Never be caught with your utensils down!
5. Be alert!… Always be on the lookout for ANY opportunity to feed. Needy connection always makes feeding sweeter – it’s the best condiment to any dish, best icing to any cake, which, by the way, you can have and eat, too (refer to items 1-4 above).

Feeding on weakness or misfortune, as we can begin to perceive our behavior, is serious business. If we can see the humor in our thinking, maybe we can make change more palatable.
