Learn how you can influence your vibration, create beautiful, positive energy for yourself and others, and begin to create the life you desire.
"If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibrations." Nikola Tesla
Personal vibration is not a woo-woo, new-agey concept. It's quantum physics.
There is no doubt, science has proven it, that everything in the universe is made up of energy vibrating at different frequencies. Sound, light, heat, motion are all forms of energy vibrating. Even things that look solid are made up of vibrational energy fields at the quantum level, including us humans. Every cell in our body is a vibrating field of energy. We ARE vibration. And the frequency of our vibrations has an impact on our physical and emotional well-being.
Admittedly, this is an ultra-simplified explanation of some very complex quantum physics laws.
To explain it even more simply, we can equate our personal vibrations with our emotions. How you feel tells you about the level of your vibration. Take a moment and ask yourself...how do you feel right now?
When you feel low emotions such as fear, anger, sadness, grief, anxiety, guilt, worry, and stress, you are in a state of low vibrational frequency. This can feel heavy and constricting.
When you you feel light, airy and flowing emotions such as love, joy, peace, serenity, compassion, clarity and understanding, you are in a high vibrational frequency. At a higher vibration, your perception is heightened, you are better able to understand the world around you, your life force will be stronger, abundance will flow effortlessly to you, your relationships will be harmonious.
You could refer to the Abraham-Hicks Emotional Guidance scale, a scale of vibrations from our highest vibrational frequencies (joy/love/gratitude/empowerment) to our lowest (insecurity/guilt/unworthiness). Of course our emotions are always changing, up and down. The point of this scale is to help you to see the levels of emotion, and to be able to work your way up the scale, from one emotion to the next. Like climbing an emotional staircase.
Furthermore, energy vibration is how everything that exists interacts with the universe as a whole. Vibrational frequencies transmitted determine the vibrational frequencies received. This is not just between us and the universe as we perceive it. It is between us and each other. It is between our emotional state and our physical state. In other words, like attracts like, your circumstances will mirror your personal vibrations. If you are in a low vibration state you will attract negative situations and people; if you are in a high vibration state you will attract positive people, situations and all sorts of good opportunities. And if follows logically that your vibration will impact all those who come into contact with your personal energy field.
In short, what this really means is that your personal vibrational frequencies, whether they are low or high, determine the quality and balance of your life, and can greatly affect the evolution of your life journey.
So, do you want to be in a high vibrational state or a low one?
Can you “raise your vibration”?
YES! It’s all in the choices you make, in your thoughts and attitudes and intentions. It's in the things your surround yourself with, the people you spend time with, the things you do. When you understand that you can influence your vibration to change your reality, you will be able to create beautiful, positive energy for yourself and for those around you. You will be able to create the life you desire.
It's your choice, you can control which vibration you are in.
Here are some practices and ideas to help you to raise your vibration. You don’t need to incorporate all of them to raise your vibration. I invite you to read through them and choose a practice or a ritual that speaks to you and intentionally, consciously do it every day for a month (or even a week!). And then notice how you feel.
20 WAYS TO RAISE YOUR VIBRATION
-
Change your thoughts, change your life - Nothing is more important than your thoughts. And what you focus on expands. Think positive thoughts and you can transform that energy into positive reality. And lots of good things will follow. You can start by choosing how you want to feel today. And find ways to remind yourself every day (even a post-it on your bathroom mirror can help!). Me? I choose joy, today and every day.
-
Smile and laugh - Seek out things that make you laugh and smile and you will quickly feel more joy. Especially if you are feeling low. I find that, no matter how you feel, everything looks brighter and more joyful when you have a smile on your face.
-
Set your intention daily - Your intention is more than the way you want to feel - it’s about the higher vibration that you want to embody and carry with you into the world. What energy do you want to project today? Joy? Love? Peace? Confidence? Remind yourself of your choice, like a mantra, to firmly install that choice in your heart and mind. For example, "I am love".
-
Forgive, forget and move on - Unhook yourself from all the past negative experiences you tend to ruminate on, forgive yourself and anyone who hurt you in the past, and you will release yourself to enjoy the beauty of the present moment. Letting go is freedom. This is high vibration.
-
Stop judging - We are often so quick to judge everything we see and do, everyone we meet. But judgement is a very low vibration, tends to be very negative, and it's often not founded on reality. The first step is to notice when you are being judgemental. Then forgive yourself for judging. And finally you can start to let that tendency go, until non-judgement becomes your way of being.
-
Express your creativity - Dance, decorate, paint, sing, quilt, craft, cook, write, garden, take photos on your phone play a sport…whatever your creative interest is, anytime you express your inner self through your creative endeavours, you invite more joy, satisfaction and sense of well-being into your life. If you don’t think of yourself as creative, think again! Everything you do throughout the day is an opportunity for creativity - when you bring a new idea, a new process, a new practice into your life, that’s creative!
-
Embrace your endless possibilities - The universe after all is endless. If we think we are limited, it's an illusion.
-
Be kind to yourself - To authentically spread kindness and joy to others, we have to start by being kind, patient and loving to ourselves. And it's something we sometimes struggle with. So remind yourself today that you are beautiful and perfect, just the way you are.
-
Practice yoga - As you move mindfully from one pose to another, yoga is an opportunity to cultivate the qualities of loving awareness, patience, kindness, and compassion for yourself, and then you will have more of these gifts to share with others in your life. Try our Intention Based Yoga Practices. Also, the practice and philosophy of yoga often leads you to make more conscious and positive choices for your lifestyle.
-
Meditate - Meditation is a window of peace and quiet, an opportunity to connect with your higher self and with your endless possibilities. When practiced regularly, even for a couple of minutes a day, it's one of the best ways to raise your vibrations.
-
Chant OM - The Sanskrit language is a powerful energetic system. And OM is a mystical symbol, one of the most sacred and powerful of the Sanskrit bija mantras. OM is pure vibration, the primordial sound of the universe, and connects us to universal vibration and energy. The sound OM, when chanted, vibrates at the frequency of 432 Hz, which is the same vibrational frequency found throughout everything in nature. You can chant OM yourself, or listen to this.
-
Thank your lucky stars every day - Practicing gratitude is easy and can be done every day. Just by recognizing and appreciating all the goodness you have in your life will make you think more positive thoughts and will invite more abundance in. Try it, right this minute: think about three things you are grateful for. I am grateful for the warm and cozy home that shelters me, for my family that loves and supports me, for you reading my blog.
-
Listen to soul-soothing music - Choose your music carefully. Avoid angry, negative lyrics and prefer upbeat, friendly, or soothing music. Why not try a sound bath? A sound bath is a powerful high-vibration experience for your mind and body, it's done with crystal singing bowls, gongs, chimes, tuning forks and various other instruments. It's not "music" exactly, it's a sound experience.
-
Get into nature - One of the best and easiest ways to raise your vibration is to take a walk in the wood or go sit under a tree for a while. The vibration of nature is absolutely perfect, it will always make you feel good.
-

When I feel low or uninspired, I like to declutter, rearrange, and reorganize my work space. I always more light and free and ready to grow.
-
Purify your space with palo santo or sage - Burning palo santo (South American "holy wood") or wild white sage is an ideal way to purify your space or your self of negative energies and invite in positive energy. Get some sustainably sourced palo santo here.

Get some crystals such as quartz, amethyst, malachite - There are so many crystals to choose from, and all have powerful energies. Choose one for a specific intention, or choose one that just resonates with you. My favourites are the very powerful clear quartz crystal and labradorite.

Try aromatherapy, only pure and natural essential oils - Essential oils are like the soul of the plant, and when you bring them into your home, you can entrain with the higher vibrations of these pure essences. Try our signature soHUM Essential Oil Blend collection, only pure, organic and wild-crafted essential oils.
-
Surround yourself with people who exude positive energy - If you have low-vibration people in your life, wrap them in your own field of positivity, help them to raise their own vibration, and bring some light into their lives. And some people you will just have to recognize that they are not your people, and let them go.
