4 Reasons to Raise Our Vibrations
When it comes to raising our personal vibrational level, it’s not hard to find lists of things to do to help us accomplish this goal, including two of the most effective and easiest ways which are (1) watching our words and actions; and (2) committing random acts of kindness. We’ve all heard that these types of activities will allow us to create positive energy, which in turn raises our vibrations, but how do we know that there are really vibrations to be raised? And, how do we know when we’ve made progress raising our own?
As to whether or not vibrational levels truly exist, the possibility is offered with this quote from world-renowned psychic medium Arthur Ford, who after passing channeled information to Ruth Montgomery for her books. While on this side of the veil, Ford wrote several books of his own, including The Life Beyond Death in 1971. He shares the following concept:
When we consider the vast multitude of significant vibrations [i.e. x-rays, radio waves, electromagnetic waves] which surround us at all times and of which we are totally unaware, we see how ridiculous it is to imagine that our ‘five senses’ give us anything like an accurate picture of the universe we live in. Yet our materialistic scientists would have us think that these and only these are the sole source of data from which to derive comprehension! This matter of vibrations is important to me; I am convinced that becoming aware of the next stage of existence beyond the earth biosphere is very largely a matter of becoming to its vibrations.
All of this raising vibrations talk is nothing new or New-Agey as Ford wrote the above passage forty-three years ago. When it comes to knowing whether or not we’ve actually raised our vibrations, please consider this. While we know that it means the rate or frequency of our vibrations is raised, we may often feel that since we can’t see it happening, that it’s not really happening, which would be incorrect. Many of us just don’t know what to look for. While we might not see a change, most of us will feel something as our vibrations rise. Jeffrey Marks, radio show host and author of the book, Your Magical Soul: How Science and Psychic Phenomena Paint a New Picture of the Self and Reality, wrote the following about what it’s like to feel our vibrations rise in his perceptive and insightful blog, The Inner Voice:
Now, you might think that in raising vibration you should feel something vastly different from your ‘normal’ vibration — like you’re sitting there and all of a sudden you should feel like you have a rocket pack strapped to your back. Sorry to say, this doesn’t happen. But when you reach a good meditative state and with enough awareness, you can actually feel a rapid pulsation go up and down the core of your body through your chakras that is about double the speed of your heart rate, and you will also notice your breathing is smooth and equal, in terms of time spent inhaling and time spent exhaling. This pulsation, now that I think about it, does extend to your skin, too, as I have felt a buzzing sensation across my epidermis during these moments of awareness. However, if you don’t feel this rapid pulsation, that doesn’t mean you haven’t raised your vibration, it just means that you haven’t got an awareness of it just yet.
Marks talks about pulsations, but many people feel a kind of vibrational buzzing or hum in their ears, which is a type of energy signal signifying a little bump up in frequency. While our personal experience may be as described in this article, it’s important to know that there is no right or wrong way to perceive an energy boost. However, if we pay attention, we’ll eventually discover what our individual signal is.
Becoming aware of our vibrations being raised is a good thing, and something we want to watch for because it tells us we’re making progress, which in turn motivates us to continue doing the things we’ve been doing to move forward – those things that are working!
Four reasons to keep working on raising our vibrations:
1. The higher our vibration, the easier it is for us to connect with our Higher Self.
2. The clearer our connection to our Higher Self, the better able we are to move past ego.
3. As we move past ego and enjoy a clearer connection to our Higher Self, the better able we are to receive understandable and comprehensible guidance so that we can make better decisions.
4. Better decisions allow us to learn and grow spiritually and that, in turn, allows us to develop and evolve.
Here’s another great reason to work on raising our vibrations, which comes from hypnotherapist, healer and the founder and director of the Center of Hypnotherapy, Marilyn Gordon who says:
You are made of electromagnetic energy, and like a magnet, you bring to yourself things, people and events that match the rate of your vibration. So to bring in good fortune, love and happiness and to send those out to the world as well, you want to create as powerful a force field in your being as you can.
The best way to create a powerful force field, according to Marilyn, is to watch and take great care with our words, thoughts and actions, and strive to keep them as positive as we possibly can. Doing so allows us to consciously take ourselves to the next level and the next level after that; and that, dear friends, is evolution.
