Have you heard of the Spiritual Narcissist? They are the type that flood the rooms of yoga studios preaching love, light, and abundance. They love to fall back on the label of a spiritual healer as they suck you into their web of deceit.

I’m not knocking Yogi’s. I have met several in my life and a few on here. The only problem with the Spiritual Narcissist is they give the authentic Yogi’s a bad wrap!

The Spiritual Narcissist has become the norm in the self-help field. Anything to do with personal development is a breeding ground for this type of Narcissism; it’s actually scary. The people that go to yoga are trying to learn about themselves and are vulnerable, but end up falling prey to one of these individuals.

A Spiritual Narcissist is nothing more than a Covert Narcissist with another layer of a mask. They are nothing more than a self-absorbed, manipulating asshole using spiritual text, mantras, and dogma to abuse you. And just like all Narcissists, they love to love bomb you, but it is wrapped in spiritual jargon, you know, Soulmate, the “one,” or Twin Flame. They are very hard to detect if you are unaware of what you are looking…
