Frequency
(ˈfrē-kwən-sē)
Also Known As: Vibration
In spiritual language, frequency refers to the vibrational rate of your energy, emotions, and thoughts. While scientifically frequency describes how often something vibrates per second, spiritually it symbolizes the quality of your internal state. High-frequency emotions like love, gratitude, and compassion are associated with clarity and expansion. Lower-frequency emotions like fear, shame, or anger are linked to contraction and heaviness.
Your “frequency” is not about being good or bad — it reflects your current emotional and energetic state. By becoming aware of your frequency, you can intentionally shift your mindset and nervous system toward balance and alignment.
At its core, frequency describes the vibrational tone of your inner world.
What Does “Raising Your Frequency” Mean?
Raising your frequency means shifting from reactive, stress-based states into more regulated, open, and grounded emotional states.
It may involve:
-
Moving from fear to trust
-
Shifting from resentment to forgiveness
-
Releasing shame and cultivating self-compassion
-
Regulating your nervous system
-
Choosing empowering thoughts
This is not about suppressing difficult emotions. In fact, processing and integrating emotions is what allows your frequency to stabilize at a healthier level.
How Frequency Shows Up in Everyday Life
-
Feeling uplifted around certain people
-
Feeling drained in negative environments
-
Noticing your mood change based on your thoughts
-
Experiencing more synchronicities when aligned
-
Feeling calm and clear after meditation
-
Becoming reactive when stressed
Frequency reflects how regulated or dysregulated your energy feels.
You wake up feeling anxious and scattered. Throughout the morning, you practice deep breathing, gratitude, and gentle movement. By afternoon, your mood feels lighter and more focused. You shifted your frequency by changing your internal state.
