Choosing a Positive Path

When you can’t find the sunshine, be the sunshine.

In this fairly new era of consciousness, with many people awakening to their divine ability, we are witnessing many sappy and cliche quotes being thrown around. One quote that comes to mind is “A positive mind equals a positive life.” This sounds good and all, but the question remains… “How true is it?” We all have experienced the roller coaster- like ups and downs of life. Everything isn’t always smooth sailing.

Knowing this, we have to come up with ways to deal with life’s hurdles. Instead of sulking, we need to be proactive in making ourselves feel better. When life gives us lemons we have to make lemonade. Yes, I know. Yet another popular cliché. I’m starting to think these old sayings hold a bit of weight.

3 Easy Ways to Become More Positive

1.Choose Positive Friends

The friends that you keep should be inspiring, uplifting, and focused on becoming better versions of themselves as well. Keeping a great group of friends who share the same mindset will keep you grounded and assist you in reaching your maximum potential.

2.Choose Your Entertainment Wisely

Everything that we consume impacts us in some form or fashion. This goes for what we watch and listen to as well. Watching a movie or television show that triggers your anxiety is a practice you should consider tossing. Listening to music that is lyrically violent should also be avoided. Instead, try listening to affirmations, meditation music, or watch content that teaches you something new. Reading a great self-help book is a sure way to keep you positively productive.

3. Random Acts of Kindness

Making other people feel better when you cross their path is one of the best feelings on earth. You automatically feel a sense of joy and want to continue impacting the lives of yourself and others in this way. Something as simple as holding a door, or giving a compliment can instantly change you or your neighbor's mood for the better.

When we choose to look at the light of things, our perspective changes. Instead of seeing the negative side we focus on the positive and in turn our mood and demeanor suddenly change. If we make this a common practice our loads become easier to bear and our vibrations rise higher. When you choose positivity you are ultimately choosing happiness. The choice is yours. You are the captain of your vessel, be sure to steer your life in a positive direction.

How to Use Social Media to Raise your Vibration

Your focus determines your reality.

Feelings of gratitude, happiness, and peace should be first nature to us. However, in today's drama-filled world, we may be knocked out of balance and experience feelings of stress more often than not. Our emotions are based on two frequencies which are fear and love. Love has a higher vibrational frequency, while fear and doubt are of a lower vibration.

Raising your vibration can happen within the blink of an eye. There are tons of exercises across the web letting you know exactly what you should do to heighten your mood. One simple way to raise your vibration is to listen to a song that inspires or makes you feel joy. Meditation is another well-known way to center yourself and alter your mood. When I am feeling down, I love going for a walk in nature with my two lovely daughters. Walking coupled with the serenity of nature can reduce stress and anxiety within minutes.

 With our busy schedules, we rarely get a chance to enjoy the outdoors as much as we used to. The little downtime that we do have is spent on our device of choice. We are constantly browsing the web and always checking our social media accounts. According to surveys, internet users are now spending an average of 2 hours and 22 minutes per day on social networking and messaging platforms. That is a considerable amount of time. We should be putting our time on social media platforms to good use. If we are going to be glued to a screen we might as well make it worth our while.

6 Ways to Raise your Vibrational Frequency with Social Media

1. Start a New Instagram Page with a Positive Screenname

For a fresh start and clean slate so to speak, create a separate Instagram account from your original page. Choose a positive name like “manifestingmiranda” or “abundancequeen” to set the tone of what your content will showcase.

 2. Follow Inspirational Accounts

The next step is to follow accounts that only post inspirational, spiritual,  fitness,motivational, funny, or business-oriented content. Your timeline will be filled with positive content which will be feeding your focus and raising your vibration at the same time. By only interacting with like-minded individuals, you are eliminating the possibility of falling back into lower vibrational thinking.

3. Digital Vision Board

Post pictures of everything you want to manifest in your life. Some ideas are jobs, homes, wardrobe, cars, or your goal body type. View and stay active on the page daily for motivation and the best manifestation results. You can also create a great digital vision board using Pinterest.

5. Watch Affirmations on Youtube

Youtube has a plethora of videos that will help you raise your vibration. Every morning and before bed listen to affirmations to keep you grounded and centered.
