What your thoughts can do 💭
In a previous blog, I talked about whether or not we’re opening ourselves up to negative realms depending on the vibration channel we’re tuned into.
Here’s the link to that blog if you’d like a little context first. But it got me thinking about another question…
How do we actually stay on a higher vibration channel? How do we attract more of the positive and, ultimately, more of the things we desire into our lives? 🤔
Staying on a higher vibration channel 💫
Before we dive into that, I’d like to share a little story from one of my favourite spiritual teachers, the late Dr. Wayne D. Dyer 💗 who used to explain that your thoughts are like currency.
Imagine walking into a store with your hard-earned money. You have a choice about what you’re going to buy with it. You could buy the most beautiful rug you’ve ever seen, or a gorgeous lamp that makes you smile every time you look at it. Or… you could spend your money on the ugliest rug in the store. 😂
Then you take it home and put it right in the middle of your living room, even though you don’t like it!
Metaphorically speaking, we do the same thing with our thoughts.
Every time you spend your precious attention thinking about something you dislike, you’re using your own currency to purchase something you don’t actually want… and then placing it inside your mind. But you have another choice.
You can use that same currency to fill your mind with the things you adore, the things you love and the things you actually want more of in your life. 💖
What you focus on is what you’re bringing into yourself 🎯
Thoughts affect vibration ✨
When you bring something into yourself through thought, it’s going to affect your vibration. If you’re continually thinking about something you don’t desire, something that makes you angry, jealous, frustrated or upset, you’re bringing that lower vibration into your energy.
But what happens when you focus on something you do desire? Something you love? Something that makes you feel wonderful?
Your vibration rises! 🙌 So thought alone can increase or decrease your vibration! 💥
And then we add emotion into the mix… Take a beautiful thought and amplify it with love and, oh my goodness, that vibration goes even higher! 💗✨
But take a negative thought and amplify it with anger, jealousy or resentment, and you’re adding fuel to that vibration too! Think of it as giving your thoughts little pieces of fuel. ⛽
Positive or negative, whatever you’re focusing on and emotionally feeding is what you’re helping to grow.
Thoughts CAN change your life 🤩
It is completely possible to begin changing the course of your life by changing your thoughts. Now, I don’t want you to misunderstand me and think: “Great! I’ll just think about what I want and it’ll magically appear!” 😂
There are people who have developed an incredible ability to manifest through thought and belief, but they’ve generally done a great deal of inner work. They’ve spent time developing belief, love and positive vibration.
For most of us, we can’t simply think about something once and poof!… there it is. That doesn’t mean it isn’t possible. It means we have to work towards getting there.
And in today’s world, that work begins with something incredibly important…
What are you focused on? 👀
Ask yourself:
- What do I continually put in front of myself?
- What do I allow to replay inside my mind?
- Where am I putting my precious attention?
- Is it going towards what I want to watch, follow, think, see and hear?
- Or am I allowing other people, social media, the news, entertainment and everything else around me to decide where my attention goes?
These are really important questions and you don’t have to completely change your life overnight. It starts with little steps. 👣
Perhaps you notice yourself consuming something negative… It might only be a movie, or a news article. It might be gossip. 🗣️ Irrespective, and simply stop for a moment and think: “Is this leading me towards what I desire?”
If it’s pulling your vibration down while the thing you desire sits at a much higher vibration, you’re moving yourself further away from where you actually want to be!
The subject itself doesn’t even have to relate to your goal. It’s the vibration you’re choosing to sit in that matters! 🙌
Change your thinking to change your life 💗
Your focus matters 🔍, your attention matters 👀, and where you choose to place your thoughts matters 🎯.
Once you begin noticing where your attention goes, you can start making conscious little choices about what deserves your precious currency… and what doesn’t.
If you’d like some help learning how to change your life through positive thinking, my Change Your Life With Positive Thinking course is your next step. In that course I go much deeper into the mechanisms behind why this works, including the science behind the way we’re wired. Because sometimes understanding why something works is what finally makes that penny drop. 💡
You suddenly realise… “Ahhh… this isn’t just mumbo jumbo. This is actually rooted in how I’m wired up!”
Whether or not you decide to explore that with me, I hope this little discussion has helped you become more aware of where you’re spending your thoughts, focus and attention.
Keep yourself tuned into that beautiful higher vibration, so you can move towards that which you desire… and that which you deserve 💖 Big love to you always ✨🌷💗
