How to Naturally Raise your Vibration
No one would have expected or anticipated these last 2 years. Our lives changed literally in a blink of an eye. Our daily routines disrupted, schedules and patterns altered to accommodate this “new normal” (although this will never feel normal to me).
And while people were trying to adjust and do their best to make ends meet (in more ways than one), a lot of people were struggling with how to keep their spirits up.
Everything in this world is running on a frequency, from the trees, to animals, humans and even our thoughts. As humans, our frequency and vibrations are composed from physical matter to the way we think and what we think, and as a result, some of our vibrations vibrate faster and some vibrate slower. Here’s a simple example: think of how you feel when you are listening to one of your favourite songs. You put the volume up as high as it goes and you start to sing along and move your body. That feeling of joy and happiness indicates that you are in a state of high vibration. Now imagine the opposite, you’re living in a state of worry, fear and anxiety. You constantly have knots in your stomach and you’re never in a state of peace, those feelings will have you in a low vibration and frequency.
When you are vibrating at a higher level you feel happier, at ease and “lighter”, whereas lower vibrations feel dense, heavy and dark.
Based on those 2 examples, it’s pretty simple and clear that the idea is for us to be in a constant state of high frequency. Now I know it’s impossible to be this way 24/7, but we can certainly be mindful of our behaviours and manifest this great energy into our daily life.
How are you feeling at this moment? What does your surroundings feel like?
Below are a few simple ways for you to naturally raise your vibration that you can incorporate into your life to keep you in a state of high frequency:
Drink more water: pure, clean water helps to carry nutrients and oxygen to the cells, keeps the body hydrated and helps to move toxins and waste out of the body.
Practise Gratitude: expressing your gratitude each day is associated with happiness, feeling positive emotions, improves your mental health and attracts positive experiences. Even when you’re having a bad day, there is always something to be grateful for, such as family and friends, the warm sun or the given fact that you were blessed with another day. Practising gratitude each day shifts your perception while raising your spiritual awareness for the small things in life!
Eat alkaline foods: consuming a wide variety of fresh fruits and vegetables will provide the body with vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, fibre and phytonutrients. Because these foods are so nutritious, it will leave the body feeling “light” vibrant, and connected to the earth. When you consume “dead” foods such as processed, fried and animals products, it will lower your vibration.
Move your body: not only is exercising great for our physical health, but most importantly for our mental health. Exercise naturally raises our dopamine and serotonin levels, which leaves us feeling healthy, strong, motivated and happy. It also improves our mood, sleep, boosts our energy levels and helps to combat certain health conditions. Adults on average should exercise 4-5 days a week, 30-45 minutes each time.
Meditation: Meditation has been said to help raise vibration and frequency. Meditating can increase self awareness, which allows you to gain control and perspective on stressful situations. It also allows you to reduce negative thoughts and emotions while being and focusing on the present (which we often don’t do).
If you are a beginner or would like to start meditating, it can be hard at first to just sit there in silence, alone with your thoughts, as a result, I highly recommend using guided meditation. Guided meditation can help with controlling your thoughts, while getting you to the state of relaxation and peace.
Spend time in nature (Grounding): When you take the time to go out in nature, away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, you instantly feel relaxed and calm. The sounds of the animals, the smells of the earth, the sun’s warm embrace and the cool wind blowing, instantly puts you in a zen like state. Being in nature connects you to Mother Earth in which you can build a connection with her if you are open to it. Grounding (which means to be bare foot and with the earth), has many health benefits, it can help to reduce pain and inflammation, increases circulation throughout the body and calms the nervous system. Connecting to the earth also helps us to connect with our selves and the divine. Going for hikes or long walks in the forest is my absolute most favourite way to centre myself. I encourage you to do the same!
Acts of kindness: when we stop and take the time to do something nice for someone (whether big or small), we are raising our vibration. Seeing the smiles of those we have offered our help to is rewarding and stimulates the pleasure sensors of the brain. The warm feeling we get of wellbeing that overcomes us instantly raises our frequency, knowing that we did something good that helped to brighten someone else’s day! Be kind to everyone!
Refrain from toxins: While smoking, drinking and eating junk food feels good at the moment, it is a temporary feeling. Consuming toxins can lower our perception, lower our energy levels and is a suppressant to the body, resulting in lowered vibration. Rather than numbing ourselves, adapt a more holistic lifestyle and approach to life. It will leave you feeling more healthy, energetic and full of vitality, this would include adapting a whole foods diet, exercising, and consuming herbs and natural supplements.
Channeling your time, energy and efforts into raising your energetic frequency is one of the best things you can do for yourself. When you lift yourself, you lift others around you … your vibe attracts your tribe!
