What differentiates one form of energy from another is the speed at which it vibrates. Light is vibrating at a very high frequency while a rock or large boulder vibrates at a much lower frequency, but still at a frequency nonetheless. We humans each vibrate at frequencies that are different from one another and it's the quality of our thoughts and feelings that determines the frequency at which each of us vibrates. Our vibration goes forth, out into the world and attracts other energies moving at a similar frequency. This is the mechanism by which we all create our own reality and this is why we can cause a positive shift - if we first raise our own vibratory energy signature.
When you encounter someone and you describe this person as being particularly 'vibrant,' it is because this person is vibrating at a higher frequency so they attract and inspire you. Conversely when we encounter people who are cynical, negative, uncaring or even trying to bully us, they are vibrating at a much lower frequency level. We become unhappy and uncomfortable in their presence and generally move away. These persons however also perform a service to us by mirroring back what we don't wish to become ourselves. There is no question here of judgement toward them personally. Instead the situation can be viewed as a sign post �?one that motivates us to raise our own frequency and to move away from theirs. For it is by consciously selecting the best and highest ways of being through which we express ourselves, that we nourish and support this whole process toward our growth.
There are many other ways to also raise our vibrations by working with positive affirmations, practicing meditation and seeking out more vibrant people and friends in our lives. Another simple and practical way is to consciously choose where we will focus our attention. This should include those situations and persons that will always be uplifting both for us and for others. Each of us has the ability to affect the world around us simply by using focused meditation to connect with our Earth (yes, she's vibrating too), our environments and our fellow humans. Because our intention is what creates this connection, we have the potential to act as and to create beacons of light. Each of us through intention can become an oasis of positive, healing energy that radiates outward, diminishing the energy of negativity while spreading well being and deep joy. And like tiny ripples that merge outward to form mighty waves, combined human intent becomes much more than the sum of its parts.
An individual working alone will bring about positive results by emitting conscious frequencies of love, peace and goodness. But a group of people all focusing their energy on sending light and love to the whole world, will set the stage for a positive global transformation. The light you emit by yourself is a wonderful healing tool but when you join others in a common intention, a powerful force is created. The light of this collective consciousness will wash over the entire earth enveloping people, cities, countries and continents as you share and direct your collective light!
