Feel like you’re in a rut at the moment? NH investigates how you can use self-love to create high-frequency feelings and attract the right people into your life…
Have you ever walked away from a conversation with a feeling that you just didn’t ‘vibe’? It may sound a little woo woo, but get on board with the idea that we all have different energies within us and suddenly, the reason why we sometimes ‘click’ with people and not others, makes sense. The good news is, we can tweak our own energies to operate on a high-frequency (high-frequency feelings include qualities such as compassion, enthusiasm and a general zest for life) and attract more positive people into our life. Ready to fine-tune your inner energy? Then read on.
Vibration setting: high
It was Nikola Tesla who told us that all matter is merely energy vibrating at a certain frequency and quantum physics has helped us to understand that every single atom in our bodies is about 99 percent space and only one percent physical matter. “It’s hard to believe our physical form is vibrating, and yet upon further analysis, we know this to be true,” says life coach and self-development speaker, David Richards. “When we’re angry, we can feel our pulse-pounding in our temples, we breathe heavily and the world around us feels hard and physical. Someone with unchecked anger attracts people into their life who are only going to sustain those feelings. This is the reality of a low-vibration life. When we focus on positive emotions such as love and gratitude, we have the power to transform our lives and attract people who are in tune with the feelings of gratitude and love we are expressing.”
Bad juju
We can probably all agree that we’ve encountered someone who rubs us up the wrong way. But when we think about why, we can’t really explain what it is that we don’t like about them. If we think in terms of energy frequency, then suddenly it becomes a lot clearer. That new colleague that you can’t seem to gel with or a best friend’s partner that you don’t immediately warm to, are probably operating at a different frequency level to you. You just need to work out whether it’s higher or lower than your own.
But as our expert explains, we can’t operate at one frequency all the time. “Many of us have been conditioned to believe that if we are not vibrating at a high-energy level all the time, then we are doing something wrong,” says author and intuitive medium Amy White. “But without the times of low-frequency vibration, we are not able to truly experience, or even recognise, when we are in the flow of high-vibing moments. The goal isn’t to never feel low-frequency energy, but to recognise what these feelings are telling us, so that we can shift our perspective. This takes awareness and practice and most importantly, it takes the willingness to be gentle, nurturing and loving towards ourselves. When we honour the whole experience, the high-highs and the low-lows, we come into deeper alignment with our truest selves. This is the magical space where alignment and frequency attract others who are on a similar path.”
6 ways to vibrate higher
When we are authentic about our emotions, experiences and beliefs, we create a vibration that transcends the traditional definitions of high and low. Here are seven ways you can cultivate your vibrations for the better.
1. Meditate
Not only can meditation help you navigate anxious thoughts and swerve stress, but it can give you a better insight into your thoughts and feelings – essential if you want to fine-tune your energy.
2. Practice gratitude
Daily journaling is another surefire way to put you into a higher vibrational state. Rather than focusing on what you don’t have, try and make a list of all the many things you can be thankful for in your life. That way you can end each day on a more positive note.
3. Make time for downward dog
Seasoned yogis probably already know that post-yoga session, they feel better. But the poses in yoga do more than just clear your mind, they can raise your vibration and free up stagnant energy that’s lingering in the body too.
4. Breathe deeply
Simple, but effective – deep breathing can not only help calm your nervous system and release tension, but it can help you raise your frequency too, by releasing some of the low-frequency feelings such as negativity, stress and fear.
5. Do something kind
Performing random acts of kindness won’t just make us feel better about ourselves, it will emit high-frequency energy and encourage people to do like-minded things for us. Compassion and kindness are top tier high-frequency feelings, so make sure you practise them daily.
6. Say no to someone or something
Are you a ‘yes’ person? While it can be good to say yes to things that have a positive impact on us, you don’t want to fall into the trap of ignoring your own needs to people please. You can reclaim your energy by saying no to something you don’t have the want/ time or capacity to do, and see how your mood improves.
