We tend to assume that if we are around something positive
or more "high vibe",
then it implies that we're going to start feeling better.
This is not always the case.
And today, I'm gonna explain why.
Please pause and read before you watch this video:
Why the Presence of Something High Vibe May Make You Feel Bad
First, before we dive into why,
I need to explain what I mean
when we use the word vibration or vibe:
Everything in this universe is energy.
This energy vibrates.
And energy that vibrates, imparts information.
The amplitude and frequency of energy
is what determines how, in what form
that energy will express itself.
We call this a vibration.
It's a term you will hear often in spiritual circles.
What you will hear often is somebody saying:
"Oh, that person has such a high vibration
or that thing has such a high vibration".
What this means is that there is some positive quality
that this thing holds.
Here's an example:
We may say that rose quartz has a high vibration.
We do this because as an energy,
as a stone,
it is nurturing and it inspires compassion between people
and it makes us feel connected to the world
and inspires a heart opening.
You know, a space of love.
Or, we might say:
"Oh my gosh, that person has such a high vibration".
When we say this, this implies that they're so awakened,
or they're so intuitive, or they're so fun,
or they're so confident, or some other positive thing.
We live in a universe that is governed by the law of mirroring
which is often called the law of attraction.
In a universe that is governed by the law of mirroring
only things of like frequency can share the same time and space.
They have to be a "vibrational match".
Because of this, we see things like entrainment
occur naturally in our world.
How this applies to vibration
is that when two energies are in the presence of one another
they will come into resonance with each other.
Usually the less dominant frequency
will change to match the more dominant frequency.
And to generalize,
usually,
whatever vibration is the higher frequency
is the one that is the most dominant.
That means that it's more likely that if we're in a crappy mood
and a pretty unloving mood
and we share space with rose quartz,
this entrainment dynamic is gonna make it so that
our vibration raises up to make us feel more loving.
Obviously, because of this, it's pretty tempting to think:
"Well, if I'm sharing space and time
with something that is a higher vibration than me,
then I'm gonna feel better".
But as you've noticed already, probably,
in life, that's not always the case.
And there are some concrete reasons why.
I'm gonna explain the top reasons for you today:
#1. You may feel worse
around something that holds a higher vibration
because of resistance.
Resistance is any oppositional force.
When entrainment starts to occur
so we start to raise our frequency up
to match whatever that thing is that is in a higher vibratory state,
anything within us that is against that higher vibe state,
will go into immediate resistance.
Now, you might be like:
"What? what the hell?
I mean, if it's a higher vibration wouldn't that just feel amazing?
And wouldn't that just be an automatic
obviously, we're gonna raise to that frequency
that's what we want.
Why the hell would there be resistance?"
Okay, I'll explain why;
Imagine that in your childhood
your personal power was seen as a bad thing.
Anytime you demonstrated personal power,
it led to negative social consequences.
If you spend time around someone who has a lot of personal empowerment
i.e. a higher vibration than you hold,
this is likely to cause the part of you
that has that negative association with
and therefore resistance to personal power
to come into a state of resistance.
As a result, you're gonna feel negatively towards that person
and your body is actually gonna register them as a threat.
To understand more about resistance, you can watch my video titled:
URGENT! Deal With Your Resistance Before You Do Anything Else
#2. For things of a lower frequency
to entrain with things of a higher frequency
they need to release or let go of
anything that is keeping their current vibration low.
Essentially, there is a process of letting go of
or releasing anything that is not a match
to that a higher vibratory state.
Which is why it is so incredibly common
that things that hold a higher frequency
cause a kind of detox process
or a purging process
or a flushing to the surface of things that no longer serve
kind of a process.
For example, shamanic medicines
which tend to hold a very high vibration,
they tend to make people purge on the physical level.
They tend to create huge emotional releases.
They tend to cause the subconscious mind to purge into the conscious mind.
Or, let's make it more practical.
Let's say that currently we're around the higher vibrational experience
of being in the loving and safe relationship.
It's gonna make you feel really good, right?
Not necessarily.
What might happen as a result of being in that situation
is that suddenly,
you're no longer desensitized to the fear you feel in social situations.
You're no longer normalizing that fear.
And so, you're feeling more of that fear.
Or, for example, all of the grief you have inside your being
for being in a year's worth of abusive relationships,
Might, suddenly come to the surface.
#3. Being around something or somebody that holds a really high frequency
can sometimes make us more aware of what we lack
and where we aren't.
Many of you have experienced this, I know it,
when you're feeling totally terrible
and you go hang out with that friend
who's currently feeling really great about their life.
You hang out with that person, you kind of wanna kill them, right?
because they make you feel so much worse about yourself.
You end up feeling sorry for yourself and like:
"why are they experiencing that and I have to experience this?"
And it just causes you to even go down the spiral further.
Suddenly, the contrast between where you are vibrationally
and where they are vibrationally, makes you feel even worse.
Or, for example, let's say that we visit a group of people
that are "higher vibration"
and that they are open and honest
and intimate and committed to each other.
That may cause us to feel worse about our own social circle.
The one we usually spend time in.
Suddenly, because we have that comparison
we start feeling even more alone
and surrounded by distant dishonest people
who only have relationships of convenience.
If we subconsciously slip into negatively comparing ourselves
with whatever holds a higher vibration,
we will feel worse about ourselves and our life.
#4. When we are exposed to something "high vibe"
it naturally induces
a process of healing to take place within us.
When we look at healing,
what healing ultimately is, it is to change a pattern
from something that is unwanted, into a pattern that is wanted, instead.
Usually, it's opposite.
For example, if we feel demeaned,
to heal is to feel valued.
Or, if we are lonely,
to heal us to achieve togetherness.
But this process often involves us becoming aware of
and experiencing some pretty painful things.
What I want you to become more and more comfortable with
is that there is a very big difference
between simply experiencing pain relief / feeling better
and healing.
So you can understand this, I'm gonna give you an example:
Let's imagine that we realize:
"Oh my gosh, I've been living a totally inauthentic life".
Let's imagine that what made somebody realize
"Oh my gosh, I'm living such an inauthentic life,
is the fact that they just spent time around somebody
who is higher vibration and that,
they're really in their authenticity.
Not only that,
they're supporting that person's authenticity.
Being around that person
causes a healing around authenticity.
And not a feel-good one.
First, this process of healing by becoming more authentic
means that they have to not feel very good
because they're gonna be looking at
the aspects of themselves that are inauthentic.
That's number one.
Number two, they have to be willing, despite fear,
to enter into conflicts, instead of avoid them.
They may end up having to change or even end relationships
that were not created from a place of authenticity.
They may end up having to see the pain they caused others
by entering into those relationships on an inauthentic foot.
They have to leave the familiar
and create a whole new life for themselves etc.
None of this feels good.
You can see looking at this process
that it doesn't feel good,
but that doesn't mean that a person should just stay inauthentic
and find a way to feel good by being inauthentic.
We can see that that process of going through that pain
will ultimately lead them to an authentic life
that does feel good.
This may sound counter-intuitive,
but I want you to know the following:
Even though the fact that something feels good to you
can be an indication that something is good for you,
that doesn't mean that anything that feels bad
is bad for you.
It also doesn't mean
that something that feels good
is good for you.
What I want you to know is there is definitely a limit
when it comes to knowing that something's good for you,
because it "resonates" with you.
For example, it doesn't always feel good to exercise,
but exercise is good for you.
Cocaine makes you feel good, but it isn't good for you.
Physical affection is good for you but it won't feel good to you
if you have trauma around intimacy.
Having your ego stroked will feel good,
even if getting your ego stroked in a situation
will keep you totally blind
to something dysfunctional that you're doing,
and thus, keep you stuck in a detrimental illusion.
When we are around a high vibrational thing,
and it causes us to feel bad,
it does not mean that high vibrational thing
is bad for us,
it is simply an indication
that we have something negative or painful
that needs our attention
on the road to raising our own vibration,
or healing, or finding improvement.
Raising your frequency might cause negative side effects.
It may cause you to feel worse,
before you get better.
But I can promise you that even though
raising your frequency and your vibration
is not always sunshine, gum drops and roses,
it is good for you.
