Good Vibrations

How you do feel right now? How is your mood changing when you face different situations? All your different mental states and feelings are in fact changing energy dynamics. It is a bit hard to realize this initially, but you can observe them and even influence them for yourself.

You must have noticed that after a good night's sleep, you tend to feel good about yourself and everything that comes your way. Similarly, after a long work day or when you experience confrontations with people, your energy gets drained. But then, if you run into people you care about, you relax and your mood becomes lighter. So dependent on what situation you are in and what people you hang out with, your system and energy vibrations adjust accordingly. How do you feel when you walk into a mall on a busy Saturday afternoon? How do you feel when you take a walk in a forest or sit quietly at an empty beach?

We are all made of energy, and experience this energy at different frequencies dependent on the circumstances, our mind set and the people we hang out with. Different people radiate different vibrations so your energy system will respond to that as well. This might sound like fancy New Age talk to you, but in fact, you can experience this phenomenon for yourself. We are all connected on an energy level; try to experience this for yourself.

When you are in deep sleep, mediate, take a nature walk, read books on spirituality on the one hand, or experience a stressful work day, worry about loved ones or yourself, or play violent video games on the other, your energy resonates very differently. In the uplifting situations you will experience peace, will feel exuberant and connected, while in the other cases you will feel tired, exhausted, restless, or anxious.

The advantage of a spiritual path traveler is to recognize the fluid nature of all these phenomena. You also realize that you have a choice at hand. Stress at work, the endless worries about all kind of things that never really materialize, at least not in the way you expect them anyway, and the artificial ways of getting a high are things that you can drop. The more you manage to stay away from the energy draining situations and the more you are drawn to yoga, meditation and contemplation, the more you realize that this state of serenity is always yours to choose. Also, the longer you spend in these positive states, the more pronounced will be your distaste for all kind of interferences.

Of course, when you have a low energy frequency, it will be difficult for you to realize all that. You will instead blame your misery on events, bad karma, other people or your lacking will-power. Try to experiment with our concept as much as you can. Cut impurities out of your life, at least temporarily, and see how your energy system reacts to it. Seek out the people, activities and events that give you positive energy and that put you in a state of serenity. Find the way that works for you to reconnect with your Soul. For Christian it is contemplation and writing, for Su Zhen it is meditation and writing and we both are in awe of nature. Find your unique way of connecting with your Self and take this energy vibration as your base line and let the Tao teach you how you can manifest the same bliss in all areas of your life. Try it and experiment with our concept for yourself and see if what we say is true or not! Enjoy your good vibrations!
