Tune to Appreciation

I when get in the car to go out into the community I have a choice of the frequency on the radio that I tune in to. What do I want to hear today? Music? What genre? Sports updates? Talk radio? AM or FM?Hmmmmm…….. I can choose what I want.

Contrary to popular belief, I also have a choice of the frequency of what I am “feeling”. I have the ability to change the frequency I am on and hence adjust the feeling. How does this work?

You may be doubting it can happen but you all have, perhaps many times, experienced it take place automatically. Here is how it may have been for you. For sake of illustration, you are sitting home alone and are concerned, frustrated, or worried about a number of things. It has been a tough week and you are feeling really low. Then there is a knock on the door and when you open it, standing right there you see a dear dear friend whom you haven’t seen for years. They were passing through and wanted to stop and spend the day. Suddenly everything shifts. The “frequency” that you were tuned to has changed! Now there is joy, love, wonder, happiness and great excitement!!! In this case it was a surprise circumstance that changed the “station” that was causing you to feel “down.”

I believe we have the ability to determine the frequency we are on. It may be almost as easy as changing the station on the car radio. Let’s look at some easy steps to move ourselves to a higher frequency.

  1. When you are concerned, frustrated, or worried about a number of things recognize the feeling. Perhaps you feel overwhelmed, depressed or some other depleting or negative emotion. Your vibration frequency is low.
  2. Acknowledge that it is NOT these feelings or emotions that cause you to feel down as much as it is the momentum and importance you place on them.
  3. See the low energy as an indicator of your wanting something different and better, a higher frequency. Then shift the momentum from the low vibration to the higher one of Appreciation. Here is how.
  4. Relax, breathe deeply, move your awareness to that Loving place in your Heart by intentionally feeling love and appreciation for a person, pet or something you truly care about. Make it easy, start with something you already truly appreciate.
  5. Soak and relax in this wonderful appreciation and compassion of your loving heart, letting the significance of the old low energy dissolve and be replaced by the higher vibration of this appreciation as it grows within you.
  6. This process helps to change your frequency to a higher vibration and holds you in the loving place in your heart as it increases your ability to appreciate and love yourself.
  7. Enjoy the higher frequency of loving Appreciation for it has been created in you and by you and the Divine Source of All Love dwelling in you!

“Set your minds on things that are above”.

Enjoy the higher frequency of appreciation today!!
