Question: How should a person work with the negative states of his friends?

Answer: You need to get them out of these states by your example. Suppose that you see that someone is going through a serious descent. You can obligate him to participate in a special workshop or some other events. You can give him a massage because it can be very helpful. A massage stimulates the person; he begins to think differently.

Try to influence the friend physically at first, this is best. After that, organize a workshop. But in no way should you abandon him.

Only within the group can you bring a person out of these negative states.

Question: How should a person react to criticism by his friends in a circle?

Answer: If a person suggests something and the group doesn’t seem to accept it, don’t react sharply to it. Write it down and bring it to a discussion within a workshop. Any suggestion shouldn’t be rejected immediately or remain without examination. Every suggestion has to be taken seriously, without spending much time over it, but rather discussing it realistically.
