cindygrogan14 It’s the birthright of each of us to have a direct line to a Higher Power. It doesn’t require a particular belief system – rather, just a belief that some kind of Higher Power exists, even if you view it as an energetic source vs a religious one. Raising your personal “frequency” is like sending up the Bat Signal to connect with this power and ultimately make your life a lot better. Let me break it down.
The spirit realm exists at a higher energy frequency than we do here on the physical plane of Earth. I’ve often used the analogy of a box fan. When the fan is on, the blades move so fast you can’t see them (that’s fast-moving spirit energy); when the fan is off, you see the blades in their solid, physical state (that’s slow-moving human energy).
Another way to understand “frequency” is to imagine a room filled with happy people, laughing. This room has a feeling of lightness, a “high frequency.” A room filled with angry, tense people feels heavy; that’s a low frequency. We’ve all experienced both and know how it “feels.” Dialing up your frequency can be a game-changer in achieving goals or just making your day go more smoothly.
When it comes to raising our frequency, “intention” is the most powerful tool we have. Basically, there are only two possible intentions: to learn with Source/Spirit (or whatever you want to call it) about better loving yourself and others, or to protect yourself against pain and avoid responsibility. When our intention is to protect/avoid, we seek control, through things like addictions, ignoring feelings, and trying to force a certain outcome. When our intention is to learn, we take responsibility for our feelings and behavior and work to discover what’s keeping us disconnected from our Higher Power. Instead of doing all the driving ourselves, we allow Higher Power to direct us as we drive, like the “Map” function on your phone (“In 1 mile, turn right…”).
If you run through what’s going on in your life right now, I bet you can boil it down to one of those two “intentions.
Again, you don’t have to be religious to connect with this Higher Power; but acknowledging that it exists will be a game-changer. If you’re “closed off” from accepting its existence, the miraculous energy can’t penetrate. So, try to surrender to the idea, even just a little bit.
Look, we’re given free will when we come to this planet. This means that we get to choose our intention. But just as air can’t come into your lungs until you take a breath, the power and wisdom that is your Higher Power can’t enter until you choose the intent to let it in. That alone kicks up your frequency, helping you align with the incredible energy and power we have at our disposal. The power is pretty amazing, so why wouldn’t you tap into it? It’s like the Ultimate “App” on your phone!
Here are a few simple things that also help raise your frequency:
- Use your imagination. Your imagination is a gift from Spirit. When you first begin to utilize your imagination to feel a connection with Spirit, you might feel like you’re just making things up. However, as you take the risk of trusting what you think you’re “making up,” you’ll discover that the information, ideas, etc. are flowing from your Higher Power through you.
- Keep your body as “clear” as you can. Your body is an energy system; things like alcohol, nicotine, caffeine, sugar, and too much screen time can lower your frequency. In today’s world, avoiding things like these can be difficult; just do your best. Drink a lot of water to keep these substances moving out of your system.
- Pray, chant, or sing. The energy of these actions elevates your frequency; you’re literally “vibrating” as you use your vocal cords and muscles.
- Dance. Even if you just crank up The Stones and move around the room for a song or two, this moves the molecules around.
- Spend time in nature. Being among trees, birds, a lake or pond, raises your energy.
- Listen to classical music. Mozart, Chopin, and Beethoven were most definitely “divinely inspired.” There’s something about classical compositions that stir different parts of the brain, helping with mental health, retention of knowledge, even dementia. Classical music is an excellent pathway for connecting with something Higher.
- Do creative, artistic activities. Pull out your sketch pad, write a poem, pick up a craft you love to do. Moving into your creative side raises the frequency.
- Burn incense. Incense has been used for centuries to raise the frequency and invite spiritual connection (one reason you find it in churches and temples worldwide).
- Light candles. Candlelight clears the air and raises the frequency. That’s one reason we “light a candle” for someone in need or who has passed. Just staring gently into the flame is a way to quiet your mind and allow Spirit to connect with you.
With any of these practices, don’t forget to factor in your “intention.” Ask yourself if, with these actions, you’re trying to either control/avoid something or move towards better loving yourself? This will eventually lead to a stronger link to your Higher Power and the many amazing things it can deliver on this Earth-bound journey.
