Raise Your Vibration

 Everything in the universe is made of energy. What differentiates one form of energy from another is the speed at which it vibrates. For example, light vibrates at a very high frequency, and a rock vibrates at a lower frequency — but a frequency nonetheless. Human beings also vibrate at different frequencies. Our thoughts and feelings determine the frequency at which we vibrate, and our vibration goes out into the world and attracts energy to us that is moving at a similar frequency. This is one of the ways we create our own reality, which is why we can cause a positive shift in our lives by raising our vibration.

We all know someone who we think of as vibrant. Vibrant literally means “vibrating very rapidly.” The people who strike us as vibrant are vibrating at a high frequency, and they can inspire us as we work to raise our vibration. On the other hand, we all know people who are very negative or cynical. These people are vibrating at a lower frequency. They also can be an inspiration because they show us where we don’t want to be vibrating. To discover where you are in terms of vibrancy, consider where you fall on a scale between the most pessimistic person you know and the most vibrant. This is not to pass judgment, but rather it is important to know where you are as you begin working to raise your frequency, so you can notice and appreciate your progress.

There are many ways to raise your vibration, from working with affirmations to visualizing enlightened entities during meditation. One of the most practical ways to raise your vibration is to consciously choose where you focus your attention. To understand how powerful this is, take five minutes to describe something you love unreservedly — a person, a movie, an experience. When your five minutes are up, you will feel noticeably more positive and even lighter. If you want to keep raising your vibration, commit to spending five minutes every day focusing on the good in your life. As you do this, you will train yourself to be more awake and alive. Over time, you will experience a permanent shift in your vibrancy. (Daily OM)
