- I'm here to be honest with you
and to tell you the truth.
Now, just like in Morpheus,
you've got the red pill, the blue pill,
and it's not always the most pleasant experience
to take that of the red pill
because the red pill represents the truth,
and sometimes the truth is a little bit
of a bitter pill to swallow.
But once you've been fed in the past has been the blue pill.
The past has been, if you raise your vibration
it's gonna be sunshine, roses, daisies, tulips.
It's gonna be just all high vibration,
pleasant experiences, but I'm here to tell you
that that's maybe very comfortable to believe
but it's not actually completely true.
So in this video
I'm gonna be sharing with you some kind of inconvenient,
you could say that these aren't convenient,
these are inconvenient truths
on you raising your vibration.
What that realistically looks like
and why this will save you so much time
and energy in the process.
(peaceful music)
Welcome back to another video.
My name is Aaron, and I help people
expand their consciousness.
Now in this video, I'm gonna be sharing with you
the 7 inconvenient truths
on raising your vibration.
Some of which not everybody talks about
because it's not all
the sunshine roses and daisies and stuff.
Now, one of the first ones is one
of the ones that you'll probably recognize one
of the quickest when you start raising your vibe.
So when you raise your vibe,
what that means is there's stuff that used to resonate
with you that may no longer resonate with you.
Basically, you know, for me,
when I raised my vibration, I went from drinking,
smoking a lot of weed and taking Adderall during the day
I did not feel good about myself.
I had a low sense of self-worth.
I was still processing the trauma
of a painful past from childhood.
And what happened was I felt resistance and I felt stuck.
But then what happened is I went
through what is called a spiritual awakening.
Spiritual awakening is where you become aware
that there's more to life than necessarily just the ego mind
that the reality you used to live in as a sort of box.
And when you start breaking out of that box,
you start realizing that there's more,
and then you start questioning everything
that was in the box.
So, for me, that was the ADHD.
The nine to five job was the painful past.
And as I started to question things
and I started to also realize the correlation
between what I was thinking
to what I was feeling, to what I was experiencing.
I didn't realize that
if I would change where I was putting my energy
I changed the kind of effects I was getting to my reality.
So that was a part of the spiritual awakening process.
I also, at that same time, learned meditation.
And when I did that, I remember that
it changed my energy so dramatically
that people wondered what the hell happened to Aaron.
That's pretty much what happened.
I was working at Nordstrom's and Women's shoes.
I start raising my vibration.
I start meditating
and I started becoming interested in stuff.
I was never interested in before,
within a couple of weeks, I quit smoking weed.
I quit drinking alcohol.
I quit taking Adderall.
I started meditating.
I immediately, at that time went vegan.
And when I went vegan, I started losing a lot of weight.
And what happened is people thought, you know
I was on drugs or something.
They didn't understand what was happening.
Now, of course I was on nothing.
And I was even, I was, if anything
the most like sober I've ever been in my life
but people didn't understand it.
So what happened is friends
and family were concerned about me.
They didn't understand it.
And one of the inconvenient truths about going
through a spiritual awakening is
that you may lose friends for a period of time
or you may distance yourself or find
that you don't resonate
with the things you used to resonate with.
I remember I actually felt pretty guilty about this.
I felt like, you know, I need to like try to resonate
with old friends, with old activities that I used to do.
And I remember I would go,
and I would like, you know, I quit smoking.
But then I would every now
and then I would try it again
because I just wanted to relate to friends.
And I remember that I became,
I started to feel pretty lonely, to be honest.
I started to feel, I felt like my dad didn't understand me.
People started labeling me, just put me in this category
as like of just, you know, crazy, something like that.
But then what happened is it also was partially
my own fault though.
I became super ungrounded.
I became like, like super 5D fairy land grounded
to where, like, I didn't want to have a nine to five job.
I didn't wanna deal with anything that was considered 3D.
And I honestly,
I started feeling separate from other people.
And that was because as much as I felt judged
by other people, I was then judging other people.
I'd be like, well, they don't understand me
because they're not as woke as I am.
And that would then cause me to feel separation.
But then I broke out of that.
One of the ways you break out of this is you become aware
of that, of the judgments that you have.
And you have to let go of that separation.
You have to start realizing
that even though the old people that used to resonate with
don't resonate with you as much any longer,
you have to resonate,
this is just a part of a process.
And you have to let go of that belief.
I developed a belief that said,
people don't get me
that there aren't that many people out there like me
and that belief literally blocked people
from coming into my life
that would actually resonate with me
at a deep level.
So, one of the main things you'll wanna do,
is become aware of that one.
And if you feel like, you know, you don't have a tribe
if you feel like this is something
that's a very big problem,
as people go through a spiritual awakening
and they feel like people don't get them.
One thing I'm doing right now is I'm making an app,
for connecting people all over the world
that are of a similar vibration.
And if you want to sign up to get early access to that
or to be notified of that,
click the link in the top of the description box.
It's being made right now
to be ready to come month or two.
So it depends on when this video comes out,
but sign up, you'll see the link there
and yeah, you can sign up and,
there'll be a lot that goes on in there.
There'll be way of connecting people all over the world.
You'll be able to see people in your city.
Also, it'll just be a very high vibe container
and there will also be lives,
you know, live events and stuff like that.
It'd be very exciting.
But anyways, that's the first thing convenience.
Now the second one,
is imagine when you go outside, like,
I may introduce you to someone.
You think that when it's all light,
it's all light.
It look like an ascended avatar. (chuckles)
Let me wait for it to, okay.
Eventually it will.
It will adjust eventually.
But I don't know if you could see this right here.
Where is it?
Maybe I've ascended.
Okay. Is that my shadow?
There we go.
That's shadow right there.
That right there, is a shadow and a big part
of raising your vibration, is shadow work.
Shadow work is an inconvenient truth
because a lot of people think
that it's all just sunshine, roses and daisies.
Now, shadow work is where you become aware
of the unconscious parts of you.
And the unconscious parts of you,
the parts of you that kind of lay under the surface.
Now for me, what this looked like is
that this last year I was shedding an old pattern I had,
I've been a people-pleaser.
And that, is a shadow, being a people-pleaser is a shadow
because what that's saying is I'm going to give
and I'm going to be nice to you
and do what you want to do
so that you will give me validation, love, and support.
And the thing with this is sometimes
it's uncomfortable to go into the shadow.
It's uncomfortable to look at why am I this way?
When I realized that my ex-stepmom was very abusive
mentally, physically, emotionally.
That in a way caused me to think I wasn't worthy.
And that I had to be a different way
in order to gain love, support, and validation.
So what ended up happening is, I became aware of this.
And then I had to do different things
where I had to go into meditation.
I'd literally feel a lot of the energy
of my past the memories I had.
And I had to become aware of them,
and then shine light on that.
And it's kind of a harsh truth sometimes
to re-introduce something that happened in the past
but it is so necessary on this process.
So sometimes leaning into the shadow.
A lot of times leaning into the shadow is one
of the most important parts of raising your vibration.
It's becoming aware of these unconscious patterns
that stay active in your life.
And if you don't look into the shadow,
it will continue to run you.
It's funny, not funny.
It was actually not funny at all
but after my ex-stepmom left my life,
when 15, 16 years old came around,
my dad finally divorced her.
I then attracted an ex-girlfriend in my life
that was very controlling, just like my ex-stepmom.
I broke up with that chick after four or five years,
three or four years too long,
just like my dad stayed in a relationship too long,
another pattern, another shadow.
Then I was working at Nordstrom's and Women's Shoes.
I got transferred to salon shoes,
which is designer shoes.
The manager of that department
was the same exact personality,
as my ex-stepmom, very controlling.
There was always someone in my life to control me
because that felt safe and comfortable.
It was a form of trauma bond.
And until I become aware of it,
it was active in my vibration.
It was active in my life.
Now part of raising my vibration was becoming aware of that.
And that leads me to the third one,
which is the third inconvenient truth.
Now the third inconvenient truth
about raising your vibration
is that meditation is one
of the most powerful things you could be doing.
And what that does is it helps you observe your thoughts.
When you observe your thoughts, you're not identifying
with your thoughts and they're not being attached to you.
So that's why sometimes it's inconvenient because a lot
of people don't want to meditate, but I'll tell you this.
If you meditate for 5 or 10 minutes
every morning for the next two or three weeks,
it will completely transform your life.
It is not that one meditation changes your life
but when you do it every single day, it compounds over time.
So meditation is where you're able to observe your thoughts,
not try to control them.
And as you observe them, it loses its power over you.
Because then you could just see
that they're just thoughts.
When you used to wake up
and think, oh, is that I'm anxious?
What about this? , What about that?
What about whatever,
you realize that all your thoughts are doing
is they're just repetitive.
And they're trying to keep you where you are.
That's what your ego does.
Your ego just wants to keep you safe.
And it keeps things on recycle,
keeps the thoughts on recycle.
When you observe them, you begin to neutralize that energy.
So what I do is I start a candle flame
for five or 10 minutes a day.
And what I do is do that in the morning and at night.
And as I do, it neutralizes the energy.
And it allows me to start my day off in a very powerful way.
Now, some people don't like to do meditation,
the only reason you don't like to do meditation
it's 'cause you haven't done it consistently yet,
you haven't wired it in yet.
I became in a way kind of addicted to meditation
when I started doing it.
So, because I started to see the benefits.
I started to feel this spaciousness within me.
It's almost like we can (blows candle) brainwash ourselves
to enjoy different things.
We ask ourselves, why do we like certain things in our life?
Why am I, why do I like doing this
or doing that? A lot of times you want to know
why you like doing it?
It's because it's familiar,
it's because you've done it,
so consistently before
that it feels familiar.
Now, one of the best things you could do is start
to take the habit of meditating
for just 5 or 10 minutes a day.
Could be you walking in the park
and observing your thoughts.
It doesn't have to be some crazy experience
or you know like you're in the fifth dimension
or something like that.
But it's like you just being present
to the moment you're observing these things.
This is where I became aware of.
I believed I had ADHD,
I believed that the only way to combat that
or to get through that was what the doctors told me
which has taken Adderall.
I started to rewire it for myself.
I started to ground myself in grass that changed everything.
So that was something that was just completely so powerful.
Now that brings me
to the fourth inconvenient truth of raising your vibration.
And that is that sometimes when you start raising your vibe,
you start resonating with different content.
A lot of times there is this ungroundedness I noticed
in the spiritual community where people just want to ascend
into the fifth dimension.
They don't want to be here in the 3D.
Now, you came here to be embodied.
You came here to bring 5D here.
So, when we talk about like all the esoteric,
like Pleiadian, all these different dimensions
and stuff like that, I think they're super cool
but I don't think it's necessarily as relevant
for us to be overly infatuated
with them when we are meant to be here.
When I became ungrounded back in 2012,
one thing that happened is I became ungrounded
and I didn't even want to have a job.
And I was rationalizing it with,
this is just too low vibrational for me.
And that made me very ungrounded.
And what I eventually did is I went back
and I worked at Barneys New York for four years.
Then I went full-time on YouTube,
but a lot of that...
being very honest with myself
because I was spiritually bypassing going into detention.
That's what that really was.
I didn't want to have a job.
So I was, I was justifying it with,
Oh, well having a job is low vibration.
Figuring out this whole, okay, there we go.
I think that's better. (chuckles)
So that's another thing to realize is,
it's about bringing 5D here in body.
And as you do that, that's what it's about.
It's about being also bringing the energy into your body.
I think a lot of us
that go through a spiritual awakening
went through trauma growing up.
When we went through trauma we left
our bottom three shockers
and went into kind of like a,
a more heady space
where we became super intuitive to everybody.
But it's about being aware
that the more you bring your energy into your body,
the more power you feel, the more empowered you feel.
And also the more boundaries you can then set.
Now, that's why the fifth,
we're on the fifth of the sixth thing
of raising your vibration
I'm just gonna keep firing them off.
The fifth thing about raising your vibration,
that's the inconvenient truth
is that taking action is necessary
because we're in a 3D physical reality.
And even though our thoughts being aligned,
our energy being aligned, is important.
My life in creating my dream life
and raising my vibration did not completely transform
until I started making daily videos and started going
after my passion and started taking action
that wired in a new sense of identity for me too.
Before that I was just trying to manifest
by like sitting on the couch, thinking about things
and some people can get results with that.
I've found that when I am being the identity I prefer to be
that's what changes my reality
and part of being is taking action.
So one of the things that some people don't wanna hear.
And this also leads me to the sixth one,
I'll be talking about in a sec,
is taking action is so powerful,
because it changes your identity.
And it is a part of physical reality.
Now, the sixth inconvenient truth
of raising your vibration
is that going through a spiritual initiation is important.
Now, for a man and a woman,
this may be a little bit different,
from masculine energy and feminine energy.
Now, for me, that included taking a lot
of action changing and kind of going
through a warrior's initiation.
That required me to start setting boundaries,
to start leading in my life,
to stop letting people walk on me,
just like the whole ex-stepmom situation
and that spiritual initiation
completely transformed my life.
Now, what does this look like for women,
well, I'm gonna be doing a podcast episode
on this soon with a friend of that knows all about this.
If you want me to make that episode can you like
this video and comment below and let me know
and I will expedite that video coming out
or that podcast episode coming out on spiritual initiation.
But in general, going through spiritual initiation is
about you bringing your energy into your body,
but also being completely honest
with yourself with taking action.
And, it's really about cutting the ties to the past.
Cutting the ties to the past self,
dying to the past self, cutting the past to the parents,
knowing that a lot of the parents patterns live in you
until you do that.
Cutting the past from past relationships
that may have drained your energy
or you may have overly identified with,
and realizing your own sense of self-worth.
But these are all things that really change when you go
through a spiritual initiation.
And sometimes they're not the most pleasurable.
They're not the most enjoyable
but they are the most worth it.
Now the seventh,
spiritual, the seventh raise your vibration truth
that's kind of inconvenient is that, it's an ongoing process
and you'll have never actually made it.
When you see enlightened people,
you say, Oh they've made it.
They're in lightened.
It's a state of consciousness that they can move
in and out of, but it's, you have that same ability.
And what you have to realize is
that this is not an end destination
where you get there and it's done.
There's always more shadow work to look at.
There's always more things to look at.
Even now there's many layers of myself
that I've been stripping away
from the past many layers connected to childhood trauma,
many layers connected to parents.
And as I let go of those layers,
I raised my vibration to a completely new level
but there's still even layers beyond that.
So it's never like, it's always, it's already done
and there's nothing else to worry about
or to think about or to process.
It is an ongoing process.
Are there any other inconvenient truths
that you think I missed?
Comment below.
If so, listen to the whole pod upon it.
Meditation, watch out, begins to raise your vibration.
Let's all commit to this for the next 21 days.
Comment, I'm in
if you're in.
And other than that, I'll talk to you guys
in the next video.
Peace, much love and namaste.
