Being in a positive energy vibration is not something that "just happens", it requires work and focus. With all of the negative energy generated by the preponderance of fearful, scarcity, hopeless, angry and desperate thoughts we encounter on the daily it is of extreme importance that we remain conscious and vigilant in our practice of choice.
We must choose to focus our minds on happy, empowering thoughts. We must choose to recognize when we are spinning round and round in thought patterns that are pain-centered and making us feel icky and depressed in order to maintain the ability to shift our focus onto thoughts that lift our vibration and bring us closer to joy. It is important to remain mindful that we are all vibrating energy fields that draw to us people and experiences that are in vibrational alignment with the energy we are emanating (the old like attracts like rule). For this reason it is important to vigorously guard our minds from spiraling into low-energy thought patterns.
Choice is all around us though often times we do not see the decisions we make as being within our control. We tend to go about life on auto pilot, feeling like we are at the mercy of our particular social, economical or ethnic circumstance and that we have no say in the matter, but that is not the case. Consider for instance the start of your day. Have you ever awakened and within moments of rising uttered the words, “This is going to be a great day”? Ever notice that you generally go on to have a pretty decent day? It has a nice, mellow flow to it. You might even receive some unexpected good news.
How about the opposite? You wake up, spring out of bed, stub your toe as you’re making your way pass the dresser to the bathroom and passionately declare, “Damn-it, well I guess I know what today’s gonna be like?” Ever notice what shows up? You arrive at work to find someone has parked in your favorite spot. You end up doing three times the work you normally do because a couple of people called in sick. Your boss is in an inexplicably irritable mood and you can’t seem to do anything that pleases her. The correlation in both situations is born of our declaration. As a spiritual person I believe we are all created in the image and likeness of God, imbued with command over our world that manifests in our speaking. The words we utter are informed by the thoughts we consistently think. If we look closely we will see the evidence of this sprinkled throughout our lives.
It is for this reason we must be conscious of the conversations we choose to engage in. I encourage you to consider the impact engaging in mindless, negative talk has on you and those around you. Make a commitment to yourself to honor your health and wellness by doing the things that lift your spirit and elevates your energy. Surround yourself with like-minded people and make a pact to discontinue disempowering conversation patterns.

If you really want to make a radical difference with yourself, go public with your practice. Make a request from friends and family to “dump the junk.” Invite the people in your life engage in more uplifting discourse rather than dredging down the worn out road of gossip, blame, put-downs, and belittlement patterns common to low-vibe lanes. Positive energy vibrates at a higher level and operates in the fast lane, the lane where life takes on a natural steady flow.
Of course we can’t control what others choose to say or how they choose conduct their lives and we may inadvertently find ourselves immersed in an icky-feeling conversation. When this happens there are a myriad of ways we may choose to create a shift for ourselves. We may casually attempt to re-direct the conversation which can often be affective but when the other parties have no interest in vibing-up we must not only be willing to remove ourselves from such discussions, we must be unapologetic about our choice to do so. Please do not collapse your unapologetic commitment about creating a joyful life for yourself with being ungracious.
It is possible to practice continually raising your vibration while being respectful in your exit but you must also be okay with the fact that when you take actions to create a desired shift in your life such as this, some people who are not use your newly established boundaries might exhibit signs of resistance. Remember, we all have our individual issues and it’s important not to take on other people’s stuff as your own. This may initially make some of your friends and family uncomfortable but many of them may put their toe in the water and test it out. Some will decide they’d like to go for a swim and happily dive in.
On the flip side, there will be others who are desperately afraid of the water and will not want to take part in your pool party. This is what I like to refer to as creating in the face of no agreement. These things are all part of the journey when you're actively engaged in the process of creating and building the life you love. You only have room for happy, positive people and experiences. Life is too short to choose to settle for anything less. Happy trails as you continue to Vibe-UP!
