It perpetuates standards and values that are detrimental to individual well-being and society at large, such as hustle, competition, lack of empathy, control, dieting, and many others.<br><br>While it feels like an individual battle, toxic culture is our collective challenge that needs to be addressed across multiple areas. And equipping yourself with the fundamentals is a great way to sport and take a stand against toxic environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once you see it clearly, you can take steps to shift your focus on your personal values and priorities, instead of mindlessly following toxic culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-is-toxic-culture\">What is toxic culture?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When individualism is prioritized over community and relationships, that\u2019s when toxic culture comes in. It refers to the negative or harmful beliefs, attitudes, behaviors, and practices within a company, a group, or society as a whole.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It can be found in various settings\u2014workplaces, schools, and communities, manifesting in a variety of ways, such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Bullying, harassment, and discrimination,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A lack of accountability for harmful behavior,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Fear and mistrust among members,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Unhealthy competition and rivalry,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Detrimental standards and values,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A lack of transparency and communication, and<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A lack of support and resources.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The bottom line is that in toxic environments, people feel unsupported, unvalued, and disconnected from their true nature.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/mv-prod-blog-en-assets\/2023\/01\/1a3dbc80-toxic-culture-israel-andrade-yi_9sivvt_s-unsplash.jpg\" alt=\"toxic culture workplace\" class=\"wp-image-66262\" srcset=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/mv-prod-blog-en-assets\/2023\/01\/1a3dbc80-toxic-culture-israel-andrade-yi_9sivvt_s-unsplash.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/mv-prod-blog-en-assets\/2023\/01\/1a3dbc80-toxic-culture-israel-andrade-yi_9sivvt_s-unsplash-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/mv-prod-blog-en-assets\/2023\/01\/1a3dbc80-toxic-culture-israel-andrade-yi_9sivvt_s-unsplash-736x491.jpg 736w, https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/mv-prod-blog-en-assets\/2023\/01\/1a3dbc80-toxic-culture-israel-andrade-yi_9sivvt_s-unsplash-442x295.jpg 442w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-toxic-culture-in-the-workplace\">Toxic culture in the workplace<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Toxic work culture is detrimental to individuals and organizations as it leads to a lack of trust, increased fear and stress, and decreased creativity and innovation.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, hustle culture is harmful as it promotes the idea that you must constantly work hard to be successful. This can lead to a tremendous amount of stress, causing severe physical and mental health issues and damaging your relationships and other important aspects of life.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Furthermore, it can also create a culture of overworking, resulting in decreased productivity. As per Tim Field, author and speaker on this very topic in workplaces, a toxic work culture can be fostered by destructive personalities who create a hostile work environment, damaging employee morale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He describes the following characteristics of toxic personalities:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Abusive behavior. <\/strong>They use verbal or physical abuse to control and intimidate others.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Manipulative behavior. <\/strong>They manipulate others to gain power and control.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>A lack of <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mindvalley.com\/empathy-examples\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>empathy<\/strong><\/a><strong>.<\/strong> They aren\u2019t able to understand the feelings and experiences of others.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mindvalley.com\/self-love-vs-narcissism\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Narcissism<\/a>. <\/strong>They have an inflated sense of self-importance.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Entitlement. <\/strong>They expect others to treat them in a special way.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Blaming. <\/strong>They blame others for their challenges and never take responsibility for their actions.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Insecurity.<\/strong> They are insecure inside; that\u2019s why they feel threatened by the success of others.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Inability to handle criticism. <\/strong>They can\u2019t receive constructive criticism and attack those who provide it.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Inconsistency. <\/strong>Their actions and decisions aren\u2019t predictable.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">People with these personality traits can manifest in different ways, and they don\u2019t necessarily display all of these characteristics.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also, toxic culture can become a result of a poor leadership style, according to Bren\u00e9 Brown, researcher and best-selling author on topics related to vulnerability, shame, and empathy. She explains that when leaders don\u2019t take responsibility for creating and maintaining a culture of belonging, based on vulnerability, empathy, and clear communication, it can result in a toxic work culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-toxic-culture-in-health\">Toxic culture in health<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Does toxic culture impact your mental and physical health? Yes, it does, according to <strong>Dr. Gabor Mat\u00e9<\/strong>, physician and author of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Myth-Normal-Illness-Healing-Culture\/dp\/0593083881\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>The Myth of Normal: Trauma, Illness, and Healing in a Toxic Culture<\/em><\/a><em>.&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In <a href=\"https:\/\/podcast.mindvalley.com\/the-myth-of-normal-and-toxic-culture-dr-gabor-mate\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">an episode<\/a> of The Mindvalley Podcast with Vishen, he argues that many of the chronic health problems faced by individuals and society as a whole, such as addiction, obesity, and stress-related illnesses, can be traced back to a <strong>lack of connection and toxic culture.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>\u201cWhen you get sick, it manifests the entire world in your body,<\/em>\u201d he says.<em> <\/em>\u201c<em>The illness manifests the issue of the entire community as there\u2019s a social context of human diseases and illnesses. So your healing is our healing.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In other words, if there is no genetic predisposition to the health issue, then it\u2019s the environmental factor. For example, asthma is the manifestation of racism in culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your disease isn\u2019t an isolated issue. It\u2019s a process. And it can be your wake-up call to start a serious self-examination.<\/p>\n<cite>\u2014 Dr. Gabor Mat\u00e9, author of <em>The Myth of Normal: Trauma, Illness, and Healing in a Toxic Culture<\/em><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Moreover, what society considers normal is often just a statistical norm. Health Policy Institute reported that in 2021 about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.singlecare.com\/blog\/news\/prescription-drug-statistics\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">66% of U.S. adults take prescription drugs<\/a> and this number has been increasing over the years.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dr. Mat\u00e9 explains that it seems statistically normal for the average person to take at least one medication. But this is not healthy\u2014it displays toxic culture in healthcare.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The same is true with diet culture. According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmc.org\/nutrition-and-weight-management\/weight-management#:~:text=An%20estimated%2045%20million%20Americans,Americans%20are%20overweight%20or%20obese.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">statistics<\/a>, an estimated 45 million Americans diet every year, and in 2022, 40% of New Year\u2019s resolutions were based on weight loss. So diet culture is utterly toxic as it\u2019s based on an unhealthy set of social expectations, promoting <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mindvalley.com\/anxiety-and-diet\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">anxiety<\/a>, eating disorders, and depression.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The bottom line is, the human organism is meant to thrive in healthy cultures. And Dr. Mat\u00e9 is confident that by addressing the root causes of mental and physical health problems, we not only help individuals but can also create a healthier and more compassionate culture, based on connection, empathy, and understanding of healing and wellness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Listen to the full podcast episode here:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-spotify wp-block-embed-spotify wp-embed-aspect-21-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Spotify Embed: The Myth of Normal and Toxic Culture - Dr. Gabor Mat\u00e9\" style=\"border-radius: 12px\" width=\"100%\" height=\"152\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/episode\/718OnKY2wTgqMhi9l7rC43?si=e76601e29e17433b&#038;utm_source=oembed\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-toxic-culture-in-relationships\">Toxic culture in relationships<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Toxic culture in relationships is a pattern of behavior or dynamics within a relationship that is harmful or destructive to the individuals involved.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Examples of toxic culture in relationships include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Verbal or physical abuse,&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Possessiveness,&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Manipulation,&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mindvalley.com\/how-to-respond-to-gaslighting\/\">Gaslighting<\/a>,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Lack of trust,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Poor communication or lack of it,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Lack of boundaries,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Controlling or jealous behaviors,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Disrespect or disregard for the other person&#8217;s feelings or needs, and<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Power imbalance.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Dr. Shefali<\/strong>, clinical psychologist and trainer of Mindvalley\u2019s <em>Conscious Parenting Mastery<\/em> program, explains that toxic culture in relationships is often perpetuated by societal expectations and cultural conditioning.

When we as a whole clearly see the detrimental patterns present in our healthcare system, education, and management across all industries, we can start moving towards creating a healthier and more positive environment for everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here is how you can break the cycle of toxic culture in different settings:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-workplace\">Workplace<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A combination of effective leadership, clear communication, and a strong emphasis on positive values and behaviors can help your workplace shift away from toxicity. This includes:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Setting clear expectations for all team members regarding their accountability,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Fostering a culture of trust and respect,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Promoting diversity and inclusivity,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Creating a safe space for constructive feedback on all levels,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Providing equal opportunities for professional development,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Encouraging unity and collaboration, and<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Implementing measures to address and prevent harassment and discrimination.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Having better relationships at work can lead to increase economic gain, less stress for employees, and make the workplace culture more meaningful, as per <a href=\"https:\/\/drgabormate.com\/prescription-stress-take-time-smell-dollars\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">an article<\/a> on Dr. Mat\u00e9\u2019s website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With that being said, it\u2019s needless to emphasize that leaders cannot <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mindvalley.com\/manage-a-happy-team\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">manage a happy team<\/a> without all members actively participating in creating a positive culture and bringing more <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mindvalley.com\/love-into-the-workplace\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">love into the workplace<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-healthcare\">Healthcare<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One way to break the cycle of toxicity in healthcare is<strong> <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/compassionateinquiry.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>compassionate inquiry<\/strong><\/a>, a method developed by Dr. Mat\u00e9. It aims to help healthcare professionals understand and address the underlying emotional, psychological, and social factors that contribute to illness and suffering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This method involves asking open-ended, non-judgmental questions that allow patients to express their feelings and experiences, and then actively listening to and acknowledging their responses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201c<em>When people are heard and feel supported, they can see the truth about their programming, suppressing patterns and detrimental behaviors,<\/em>\u201d he says.<em> <\/em>\u201c<em>They can see why they behave the way they do and make another choice.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He believes that <strong>compassionate inquiry is an essential component of truly patient-centered care, based on a holistic approach to health.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And when it comes to healthcare for women, supporting pregnancy to ensure they are taken care of and feel secure is also a way to heal healthcare from toxic culture, according to Dr. Mat\u00e9. He elaborates that labor itself is a process of preparing a mother and her child biochemically for bonding and interfering in this process will cause problems later on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On top of that, 25% of women in the US have to go back to work within two weeks after giving birth. It means that 25% of children are abandoned and<a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mindvalley.com\/trauma-bond\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> traumatized<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We bring children into the world who are alien to themselves because of the initial disconnection from their mothers.<\/p>\n<cite>\u2014 Dr. Gabor Mat\u00e9, author of <em>The Myth of Normal: Trauma, Illness, and Healing in a Toxic Culture<\/em><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-relationships\">Relationships<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In relationships, <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mindvalley.com\/conscious-parenting\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">conscious parenting<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mindvalley.com\/what-is-mindfulness\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">mindfulness<\/a> can help break the cycle of toxicity, according to Dr. Shefali.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Conscious parenting has to do with parenting your<em> inner<\/em> child.
