Raising your vibrations – old ways and new ways! (5 min read)

Keeping your vibrations high is essential for anyone who is Empath or Senstive, for healers, Mediums and Readers. Here are Rachael’s top tips for maintaining your energetic vibrations

I went to a lovely New Age fair yesterday and met some wonderful people; some I read for, others I chatted with. I was sat with another reader and in a quiet spell, over a cup of tea, we were talking about all things spiritual.

While we were talking I mentioned the fact that I am a Reiki Master; I’ve been given so much recently about doing healing with the heart chakra (by none other than Jesus himself, don’t you know! 😉  ). I use Reiki, as she does, as a base to bring in other healing techniques that come naturally (I feel Usui traditional method lends itself very, very well to this). I had seen a couple of healing courses using the heart – Rahinni and Mother Mary & Raphael – where I could do this. I explained that I had been talking to a lady who teaches Angel Reiki; she felt that I was doing this naturally. My technique and the vibrational energy I use when healing led her to believe this. I’ve never felt drawn to do the Angel Reiki, and maybe this is the reason; I’m doing it naturally. It’s not something I advertise as doing, it’s just part and parcel of the way I heal and I don’t teach it out.

I said to the other reader – how were my vibrations raised naturally? In all honesty, I need to have a Rahinni treatment to know if my vibrations have been raised naturally (this will be the next step for me, as the other course is out of my meagre price range at the moment), or if I need an attunement to do it. But the question regarding the Angel Reiki is still there.

She started to talk about her confirmation. I’ve been through one myself; when I was 15 I took my Catholic confirmation. She said it occurred to her, when she was having her Reiki attunements, that they were exactly the same. Hands being laid on the crown, calling in the (Holy) Spirit by a Holy, spiritual individual, and the intention that this action was meant to bring this person closer to God, Creator, Divine Spirit etc.

Of course, we had both been down the traditional route before the non-traditional, but it was no lessor an experience or attunement because of it. Good people with good intentions is all the base you really need, whatever your criticism of traditional, organised religion.

So my vibrations were raised from day one.

This got me thinking.

I’d looked in the past as how to raise my vibrations, but did not find much help online.

I will talk another time about why it is important to raise your vibrations, but for the time being I wanted to give some of my ideas as to how I have personally managed to achieve this. I’m sure there are more, and would love people to come forward with their own ideas.

• Attunements – whether you are looking to become a Reiki Healer or Confirm your Faith in God and your Church through your own traditional Confirmation, allowing someone who is vibrating at a higher level to bring your vibrations up in a formal manner. Just because someone has gone through these attunements, it doesn’t always mean they are vibrating at a level to make these most effective (I’ve seen it in action!). You need to be living it, not just paying lip service to it.

• Being Closer to Those with higher Vibrations: These fall into 2 categories: Earth bound and non Earth Bound.

Earth Bound – this is obvious – those who you aspire to in terms of their outlook, attitude and closeness to Spirit. This maybe a master, a mentor or friend. Be careful not to use them for their energy, but instead try to emmulate them, learn all you can from them and help them, particularly in that which enables any spiritual work they may do.

Non Earth Bound – these fall into four main parts – loved ones in Spirit, Guides and Guardian Angels (of course you may have loved ones who are guides!), Higher Angels and God/Creator/Divine Spirit. The higher up the chain, the higher the vibration.

We do struggle to take on board the very high vibrational energy of God, but this is made more accessible via all of those on the lower energy planes. There are many ways to do this; good old fashioned praying, talking to your loved ones and Angels, spiritual meditation, angelic visualisation exercises, lucid dreaming – the list is endless.

The key to making this really work, is to listen back. I would encourage you to do this for yourselves rather than through a medium or reader, to really increase your vibrational energy. Again this can be done by meditating and using any psychic or clairvoyant abilities you do have, but something as simple as talking to ‘them’ in a quiet environment and listening for your answer (this will sound like your own, inner voice!), using Oracle and Angel cards for yourself, very vivid dreams, looking for signs in your life. Feathers placed in certain areas at certain times, pennies (or other tit bits – I’ve has a broken bit of statue, clearly come in on a shoe, from a small angel statue, on my floor. Others have found old necklaces etc), flowers that mean something etc. I find I get many, many messages through animal messengers. Look at where you found the object, what the object means (you can always google the spiritual meaning of many things!) and try to decode the message. The more you do it, the easier it will become. So get on and do it!

• Healing – for me, the Reiki way is that best. And by that I mean heal on a Physical, Emotional and Spiritual level. Look after your body as best you can; try not to feed it rubbish (we are all partial to the odd bit of cake) and exercise in a way you enjoy! Heal your body if it needs it. If you keep having recurrent issues in your life, what are these issues? Are these your lessons for this life? Are they previous life rubbish you need to let go of? Analyse them, understand them and deal with them; personally I try this through a combination of trying to change my behaviour, coupled with previous life mediation exercises. What hurts have been done to you in this life? Have you suffered trauma? Whether you chose to talk to friends, go for a spiritual reading or a counsellor; choose to talk and find a way forward in your life. Talk to the Angels and ask them to take away the hurt. CBT is a great thing, not just talking but making a plan to go forward. Alongside this, hands on healing really works on all these levels – prayers from friends and loved ones, Faith healing, Reiki, Rahinni, Sound healing – the list goes on! Using the angelic realms will help heal and, I feel, increase your vibrational frequency quicker than by our earthly methods alone. But whatever you feel more comfortable with, it’s important that you look after yourself.

• Attitude – again, I’m going to go back to Reiki (Usui was a wise man ya know!). The Reiki principles are universal truths, no matter what religion or life path you follow. “Just for today, I will not anger. Just for today, I will not worry. Just for today, I will be grateful for all my blessings. Just for today, I will work with honesty and integrity. Just for today, I will be kind to all living things”. In short peacefullnesss, acceptance, gratuity, hard work, love. But what is also key, is the ‘just for today’ part. If we can just accept every day as it comes, try not to control it and accept the lows alongside the highs. If your plans don’t pan out – so what! Allow your life to be totally guided; accept that in the end, you will understand why everything happened the way it did, but for now you are just rolling with it 🙂 . It also allows us to forgive ourselves for the days when when we don’t quite do it, when we don’t quite get there. Also to allow you to accept and let go of old versions of yourself. This doesn’t mean you have to be boring – people who are grateful for what they have in life, take joy in what makes them grateful. As such, they are more joyful, positive people. I always say, life is for living. By living your life by a set of great principles (you can of course chose your own, but the above is a great starting point!), you are making yourself more like the Angels, making yourself more light and, in doing so, increasing your vibrational frequency.

• Working on your flaws – I’ve already touched on working on traumas that have been caused to you, but we all have aspects of our personality that don’t serve us at times. For me, it’s temper, but you may internalise your stress rather than externalise it; you may have something else entirely to work on! It maybe the way don’t deal with certain things, rather than the way you do deal with them. It maybe obvious to you; if it’s not, look at areas of your life and see where you keep having recurring issues and try to understand your role in it. This doesn’t mean you need to get rid of it – we are the way we are inherently for a reason. I need that passion and fire for certain work I have to do while I am here; but I need to make sure it is focused where it needs to be. I realise allowing myself to get angry and not letting it out is also not the key; my blood pressure will tell you that! I need to not get angry in the first place. I need to not worry about what doesn’t need worrying about; I need to deal with issues which stress me out in another way, either so they don’t happen in the first place or so that I can deal with them, effectively in a calm way. It’s a work in progress – I don’t get there every day! I use myself as an example, to try to show how to go beneath the surface and deal with the issues at a much deeper level, but also to accept and understand that side of yourself. It’s very difficult to look at yourself objectively but, I honestly feel, that anyone that reads this section and doesn’t feel it applies to them, is lying to themselves. There is no limit to improving yourself, so there is no limit to increasing your vibrational energy.

• Being aware of the energy of technology – here I am tapping away, using WIFI, and I’m banging on about modern technology! What?! What I’m talking about is that radio was only invented at the end of the 19th Century. Since then we have had television, mobile phones, bluetooth, wifi etc etc. All these waves bouncing through the air; all the energy and heat being produced by them and going through our bodies. Back in the day of old PC monitors and non-flat tvs, you may remember the audible buzzing from them, that those of us on a higher vibrational wave could hear. Even your water going through all the machinery it does before it reaches you charges the molecules. It messes up our vibrations man! Just be aware of it; use a hands free kit, use devices on your laptops and tablets to absorb the waves, don’t bring your phone into the bedroom to sleep, relax with a book, or a cuddle, rather than your tv or laptop. Get some lovely big crystals and salt lamps in your house to enhance and absorb the energy. The technology is useful, maybe even essential, for getting the information out there to raise the earth and ourselves. How would you have been able to read these words without it?! So all I’m saying is, be mindful of the effect it can have on you and try to minimise it as best you can.

• Meditation – the longer you can spend, trying to clear your mind of all the rubbish that the modern, Western world throws at it, the better. The longer you can spend with your loved ones, guides and angels the better. The longer you can spend slowing your body to allow you to change your brain waves (a simplified version of what your body goes though when you meditate) the better. It also allows you to get a greater understanding and give you a deeper perspective on all of the above too! You may chose to do this in a sweat lodge or a

Like I say this is not an exhaustive list, but these are the ways that I feel I have been able to increase my vibrational frequency through many aspects of my life. I suppose the most obvious next step is death, but I’m hoping that’s not happening too soon!

Love as always
