Everything around us is made of energy and has a vibration. But we don’t always notice it. That energy, when manifested, can affect everything around us. The ground beneath our feet, the wind in the trees, and our bodies. We have the ability to feel and harness that energy to improve our lives. How do you raise your vibration and understand this powerful force surrounding us?
In honor of these vibrations, we have made some changes to our class formats. We have added more sound healing to every class we teach. I finished my Sound Healing certification this week and felt we needed more of this healing modality in our studio. Read more about these changes in Studio News below.
Have you ever walked into a room and just known something was off? Maybe the energy in the room was low, negative, or anxious. But have you ever been in a room with high and positive energy? You can sense the difference, but explaining how or why is hard. That’s because everything around us has its own vibration. When you walk into a room, you can feel the energy lingering there, or you can vitalize it. It’s up to you to decide how to interact with the energy around you.
Learning to feel your energy can help you raise your vibration. Pay attention to how your body feels when you’re in different environments. Notice if you feel drained or uplifted. Do you feel relaxed or tense? The more aware you are of how your body reacts to energy, the better you can harness it.
Yoga is an ancient practice of moving energy. You may not realize what’s happening when you take a yoga class, but you are moving the energy in you and around you. The different postures and movements help to stretch and move energy through your body. Some postures focus on grounding the energy, while others help to open up and release blockages. If you’re new to yoga, consider trying various classes to see which resonates with your energy.
Our breathwork is another way we move energy. Your breath controls the energy flow in your body. When you’re angry or upset, your breath becomes shallow and quick. When you’re calm and relaxed, your breath becomes slow and deep. The more mindful you are of your breath, the more you can adjust it to move the energy in your body. Try taking deep, intentional breaths throughout the day to notice how it changes your overall energy.
Sound waves also move the energy in a room and our bodies. Sound healing can help you process and release old energies. Different tones and frequencies have different effects on our energy. Some sounds can be calming, while others can be energizing. You can experiment with different types of music to see how it affects your mood and energy. You can also try sound baths or sound healing sessions to help clear any stagnant energy.
Meditation and quieting the mind can help raise your vibration. When our surroundings constantly stimulate us, connecting with our inner selves can be challenging. Meditation allows us to slow down and become present. It allows us to connect with our energy and raise our vibration without external distractions. You can start with just a few minutes daily and work up to longer sessions. Don’t worry if you get distracted at first; it takes practice to quiet the mind.
Understanding energy vibrations can be a powerful tool to help improve your physical, mental, and emotional well-being. You can harness it and raise your vibration by learning to feel your energy. You can control your energy through yoga, breathwork, sound healing, meditation, or just being mindful of your surroundings. Doing so can create a positive and uplifting environment for yourself and those around you. So go forth and explore the energy around you, and see where it takes you.

Feel free to bring blankets, pillows, essential oils, or anything else to make your practice more comfortable. All levels welcome!
