When We Focus on the Good, the Good Gets Even Better
Advice from a Reiki Master
Energy is all around us. We are energy. Reading this blog right now is using up a good source of your energy. When we are giving our energy to something we get a pretty good idea from the start if it’s going to bring us up or down. The best way to categorize whether our energy is high or low is by the way we feel. Our emotions are a state of energy running through our bodies. By itself, emotional energy is neutral. It is our choice whether we are going to make a psychological decision to create a positive or negative wave of energy. At any given time of the day, we can go from super happy to angry in the blink of an eye. How we choose to claim our energy is a profound and very deep part of being human.
Focusing on the good around us starts with focusing on keeping our energy on a high vibrational level. How do we do that? I’m glad you just asked yourself that question(wink). In order to vibrate high we must create, I am going to repeat that, CREATE it. We create everything in our reality. Whether we are happy, sad, or angry; it is a choice. It may very well be a lot harder for one to create this within themselves, but that is okay. Just like anything else it may take practice. I know that sounds pretty ridiculous. How do I practice creating high vibrational energy for myself? Here are a few tips and examples of what you can do.
1- Deep Breathing and Meditation. Meditations come in all different ways. There are so many guided meditations on the internet. Music. I love to put some Solfeggio tones on and fall asleep to them. Even if you fall asleep they are still working. The frequencies are running through your system and you may not even be aware of it. I like to sit in the sun. I just sit there. I soak up the energy from the sun, it is so powerful! The key to meditation is to train your mind to be still, and be in the moment. Awareness. Your mind may drift a lot. That is okay. Keep practicing!
2- Nature. Being in nature is my absolute favorite. A simple walk in a park with a calming sense of scenery is one of the best things you can do for yourself. Notice the trees around you. Birds and other types of wildlife. Nature is exactly what it spells, natural. You’ll feel the natural energy waves all around you, you just have to tune in.
3-Diet. For most of us, our diets may raise or lower our vibration. Think about how you feel when you eat certain foods. I know firsthand that when I eat too many un-natural sugary carbs I do no not feel well. I feel like I am crashing. I get very tired and I’m not myself. This is a sure sign that your body does not like what you are eating. Your energy is being compromised.
4-Our relationships. I know this is a tough one. I am going to tell you firsthand that we tend to become who we surround ourselves with. I tell my kids the same thing. It is undeniably true. If you are surrounded by negativity, you will eventually become a negative person as well. And, vice versa. Choose happiness.
5- Practicing gratitude. Look around you and choose three things you are grateful for. It can be something very simple. It can be the cup of coffee or tea that you are drinking. The roof over your head and the food in your fridge. Once we are able to see and feel the positive effects that being grateful has on us, the universe will start showering us with more. Our universe is our energetic powerhouse! Give out positive energy and you will receive it.
Now that I gave you some examples of how to create positive energy within, I’d like you to take a moment. I want to remind you that these are just a few examples. There are many ways to create high vibrational energy within.
Close your eyes and think about them. What is the first thing that pops into your mind? Did you see anything? What did you feel? How did you feel about all of those things? I know there are a lot of questions here. Consider it your road map. Your personal feel-good road map. The most amazing thing about it is that it can be used any time of the day. You just created it. Your thoughts are a direct impact on how you feel. Always remember we create everything!
