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 something like a rock vibrates at a lower frequency. Human beings also vibrate at different frequencies. Our thoughts and feelings can determine the frequency at which we vibrate, and our vibration goes out into the world and attracts to us energy moving at a similar frequency. This is one of the ways that 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 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. On the other hand, we all know people that are very negative or cynical. These people are vibrating at a lower frequency. They can also be an inspiration because they can show us where we don't want to be vibrating and why. 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.
There are many ways to raise your vibration. One of the most practical ways to raise your vibration is to consciously choose where you focus your attention.
Exercise: 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 noticeably feel more positive and even lighter. If you want to keep raising your vibration, you might want to commit to spending five minutes every day focusing on the good in your life.
My Thoughts:
I think I work on two very different levels.
In my own company I am very reserved, calm, laid-back and often simply go-with-the-flow of the day. I always have ad-hoc things that I would like to get done but am not particularly bothered if I don’t do them. Lazy days seem to be my norm, when I am on my own. There is no negativity, but a peaceful take on things. I like silence, especially when writing or reading or to watch films when doing arts and crafts. However, when there are others around me, I can often be considered as the up-beat one, the one that adds to the energy of the group, rallies the troops into action, especially when leading a workshop.
I used to love going to rallies, to concerts, festivals and adventure events, but as I have got older the thought of being in the middle of noisy, over-crowded locations no longer appeals. Rather than a raucous party or club I now much prefer a meal in a quiet restaurant and whilst not so long ago I longed to be jetting off around the world on new adventures … I now love just staying at home.
