The past few months, I experienced the highest of highs and the lowest of lows. I felt horrible heartache and mourning, but I also got to experience the joy of new life in this world. While there has been a lot that’s happened over the course of those few months, the single biggest factor that contributed to these high highs and low lows was dogs.
I’m not sure I’d ever felt the pain that I felt when we had to put my dog down at the beginning of summer. To me, dogs are immediate family and the death left a huge hole in my heart. To this day, I still miss her like crazy. After that happened, I felt like I couldn’t get anything to go right. I became sick and was on antibiotics for three weeks. I felt like I had constant drama in my life. I just felt like I couldn’t get anything to go right.
Until…
My family received a text from our breeder saying that a 7-week-old male Golden Retriever puppy needed a home. We discussed it and determined that, while no dog will ever replace our previous dog, our lives felt empty without having that presence in our life. A couple weeks later, he was with us at his forever home, and life started to feel back on track again.
At first, I thought the joy that returned to my life was solely attributable to my massive love of dogs. I was in a session with my coach, Rasa DiSalvo, and she explained to me that there was way more to it than that.
How dogs are superior to humans
My coach explained that dogs are almost constantly operating high on the emotional scale, much more consistently than humans. Dogs are consistently feeling joy, love, bliss, and contentment, which causes them to emit higher vibrational energy which has a positive impact on us as humans. That’s why being around a dog makes you feel higher emotions as well. She also explained that this causes animals to have a higher map of consciousness than humans do.
It is my own firm personal belief that dogs know way more than we give them credit for and that God sends them for specific reasons into our lives.
Quick wins on higher vibrations
It should come as no surprise then that petting or being in the presence of a dog is a very quick way to increase your own vibrations. The positive energy that they are emitting brings you closer to that joy, love, and bliss that they’re feeling as well. Any dog owner can attest to the shift in feelings that occurs when you come home from a long, hard day and your dog greets you like it’s the best day ever.
Don’t have a dog? No worries, I totally get that it’s not for all lifestyles since we don’t want to leave them to sit at home all day by themselves.
There’s really an unlimited number of ways to increase your vibrations. Tap into your authentic self and start identifying things that you love. Go jump in the ocean, have a dance party with yourself, workout, cook a favorite meal, read a book…the list goes on and on. Once you’ve identified a quick list of these items that make you feel joy and happiness, keep a log of them and use that for reference when you’re really feeling down so you can help move yourself up the emotional scale.
Operating higher on the emotional scale is more important than just feeling good.
How your vibrations impact others
Vibrations don’t just make you feel good but they impact others as well. Per Dr. Amber Selking in her book Winning the Mental Game (links to hardcover and Kindle), “Both the heart and the brain emit electromagnetic signals and energy. It has been reported that the heart energy can actually radiate from a person as far as ten feet outward.” (Selking 27)
Ten feet!!
That means others in the vicinity can sense your vibrations as well. Have you ever had a conversation that wasn’t confrontational or awkward or anything of the sort but it just felt “blah”? Or have you ever been having a great conversation that randomly just flops? Or maybe a non-controversial topic became heated? It likely all came down to the vibrations between the two parties.
You’ve probably even experienced the ability to feel the energy and vibration of the other person through messaging as well. I know this first hand from messaging with my coach where I sent a message and on our next call she said she immediately knew my thoughts based on the vibrations my message gave off.
Having this emotional and vibrational awareness is incredibly important because it impacts our everyday lives.
While it is important for all aspects of our lives, you may not realize the impact it has on business as well. Businesses need to identify the emotions they want to evoke from their consumers and clients and try to line up their own vibrations with that as well. Otherwise, they will just keep evoking the emotional vibrational energy that they themselves are giving off. Having higher vibrational energy becomes critical in enrolling new clients.
As a copywriter and a coach, I aim to help businesses identify the emotions they want to evoke from their customers and clients, and I put those emotions into words, so they can focus on what they love. Through this two-pronged approach, I help coach on the aspects that will best broadcast your brand while tactically delivering the words that will showcase that brand.
