Negative Energy Killing Your Vibe? It Might Be Time to Upgrade Your Circle

Ghostwritten for a health and wellness brand

I’m sure you’ve heard the saying that your life is most resonant of the five people you spend the most time with.

This is true for every life category. Finances, your emotional life, the quality of your relationships, your energy.

If you’re stuck in a rut, if your world is full of negative energy and a scarcity mindset, you may want to take a second look at the people you spend your time with. 

Now, what I am not saying is that you have to ditch your friends. 

I don’t mean that the people you spend your time with are bad.

What I am saying is that you can be deliberate in surrounding yourself with people experiencing and expressing in their lives what you want to be experiencing in yours. 

How, you ask?

Well I invite you to join me on a little exercise:

• Write down 2-3 experiences and feelings that you want to feel each and every day. Is it humor? Is it spirituality? Is it an attitude of personal growth? They should be uniquely important to you and reflect your specific values.

• Then, (and here’s the kicker) ask yourself: Are these qualities alive and well in my life?

If the answer is yes, then this is an excellent gratitude exercise for you. You know you are already taking a direction that is healthy and right for you. You can put your focus on continuing to nurture and cultivate these relationships. 

If the answer is no, don’t panic. You have a beautiful opportunity in front of you. 

It’s possible that you already have people in your life that exhibit these qualities, but you just don’t see them that often. Without feeling the need to discard anyone from your current association, you can ask yourself what kind of energy it would require to get more of these people. 

Can you begin communicating more to the individuals who light your spirit up? Can you be intentional in spending time with them?

Or maybe you have a desire to meet people who are new in your life that evoke the values that are most important and special to you. 

You can easily begin to seek these people out. The beautiful thing about manifestation is that once you name what you’re looking for, once you start to tell the universe “I’m looking for a friend who makes me laugh” you start to meet people who make you laugh. The key is to get specific, take inventory of the people in your life. Identify what you have and what you don’t have.

I want to assure you that a lot of the things we want are actually very easy to actualize, we just don’t always take the time to name it and embrace it for ourselves. You deserve to embrace the energy that is most productive and meaningful for you to thrive and live as your most elevated self.
