  1. Some wellness and spiritual communities believe in the law of vibration, which suggests that everything in the world is vibrating at a specific frequency. Some emotions (like fear or shame) vibrate at a lower frequency, while other emotions (like love or happiness) vibrate at a higher frequency. [1] High vibrational people have learned to raise their vibrations through their actions and lifestyles.
    • When you vibrate at a higher frequency, you feel lighter and more joyful. On the other hand, lower vibrations feel heavier and cause negative emotions.

Signs You’re a High Vibrational Person

  1. Love is one of the highest vibrating states of being, and it helps fight low vibrational energies. If you’re a high vibrational person, you likely have a general feeling of love for the people around you, which makes it easy to put yourself in their shoes. If empathy and compassion come naturally to you, it could be a sign that you’re on a high vibration.
  2. Stinginess and greed have low vibrational energy, whereas generosity raises your vibrations. High-vibrational people generally avoid a lack mindset (“I need more money”) and instead cultivate gratitude (“I’m thankful for what I have”). [2] This makes them more generous toward others when they have the means to be. If you’re a generous person, this is a good sign that you’re living a high vibrational lifestyle.
  3. Under the law of vibration, thoughts vibrate at their own frequencies. As a result, negative thoughts can drag down your vibration, while positive thoughts can elevate you to a higher vibrational level. If you're filled with optimistic, high vibrational thoughts, there's a good chance you're also vibrating at an elevated frequency.
  4. Feelings and emotions also vibrate on their own frequencies. Emotions like joy, happiness, and gratitude are high vibrational, while shame, regret, and jealousy vibrate at a lower frequency. [3] If you’re a high vibrational person, you likely feel high vibrational emotions more often than you feel low vibrational ones.
  5. Blame is a low-vibrational energy. Letting go of low vibrational feelings like blame helps you raise your vibrations and get to a higher frequency. If you’re good at releasing feelings of blame and gracefully forgiving others, this is a good sign that you’re living a high vibrational lifestyle.
  6. Although you have increased empathy and a forgiving nature, you don't compromise your own wellbeing to cater to others' needs because doing so could lower your vibrations. [4] If you're good at protecting your own energy and saying "no" when you need to, this is a good sign that you've been able to cultivate and protect a high vibrational frequency in your life.
  7. Your thoughts have vibrational energy, so high-vibrational thoughts attract high vibrational things to your life. [5] If you’re a high vibrational person, manifesting likely comes naturally to you, and good things come your way often.
  8. You practice mindfulness . Mindfulness involves focusing on what you’re feeling in the present moment while avoiding judging yourself, and it involves practices like meditation. [6] Practicing mindfulness raises your positive vibrations, so if you’ve prioritized mindfulness in your life, this is a good sign that you’re living a high vibrational lifestyle. [7]
  9. Many lifestyle practices that raise your vibrations, like meditation, mindfulness, and spending time in nature, can also develop and strengthen your intuition . [8] If you have a strong intuition and you feel like you can always trust your gut, this could be a sign that you’re living a high vibrational lifestyle, and that it’s paying off.
  10. Eating high vibrational foods and staying physically active are important aspects of cultivating high vibrational energy. Heavier, unhealthy foods can bog you down and lower your energy, whereas healthier, nutrient-dense foods elevate your vibration. [9] If you love to take care of your body with food and movement, this could be a sign that you’re a high vibrational person.
  11. Yoga can help you release stagnant energy and raise your vibration. [10] Yoga is also a form of exercise, and staying active also cultivates high vibrational energy. If you do yoga on a regular basis, this grounding, spiritual practice has likely done wonders for your vibration level!
  12. Connecting with nature can positively affect your mood and raise your vibration levels. If you love spending time in the great outdoors and appreciate the beauty of nature, this is a strong sign that you’re vibrating at an elevated frequency.
  13. TV, movies, and music also vibrate at specific frequencies. As a result, certain media could lower your vibrations. For example, if you’re feeling anxious or pessimistic after watching a violent action movie, this may have to do with low vibrational energy. If you’re drawn to uplifting, positive media, this could be a sign that you’re living a high vibrational lifestyle.
  14. If you’re a high vibrational person, you have many qualities that make people want to be your friend. Your forgiving, upbeat, loving, and generous nature makes people feel safe and happy around you. If you make friends easily and feel like people are drawn toward you, high vibrational energy could be the reason!
  15. The law of vibration is all about matching the frequency of what you’re looking for. [11] If you’ve sought out and built relationships with high vibrational people, this suggests that you’ve matched their frequency and are also living on a high vibration.

  1. Low vibrational energy feels heavier and darker than high vibrational energy, and it’s associated with more negative feelings. Here are some signs of low vibrational energy to look out for:
    • You experience low vibrational emotions (like fear or shame) more often than high vibrational ones (like joy or love). [12]
    • You’re stuck in a scarcity mindset, meaning you focus on what you don’t have, rather than cultivating gratefulness for what you do have. [13]
    • You have a hard time empathizing with others and putting yourself in their shoes.
    • You are self-critical and too hard on yourself, or you talk to yourself unkindly.
    • You’re unhappy with your relationship with alcohol or with your diet, and you feel like your physical health might need some TLC.

  1. Mindfulness involves focusing on what you’re feeling in the present moment while avoiding judgment. [14] It’s also a sure-fire way to raise your vibrations. [15] . If you’re looking to become a high vibrational person, try out mindful meditation .
    • Mindful meditation involves focusing on the present moment. It can reduce stress and promote physical wellbeing. [16]
      • Sit down in a quiet place and focus on what you’re experiencing.
      • Feel the flow of your breath, and let any thoughts that come up pass without judgment. [17]
  2. Taking care of yourself can raise your vibration and help you be more present. [18] Take the time to do something you enjoy to show yourself some love and cultivate positive emotions. If you love nature, go on a scenic hike or spend the day at the beach. If you need some rest, treat yourself to a bubble bath or a night in watching your favorite movie.
    • Being kind to yourself will help you be kind to others, which will help you raise your vibration!
    • Reader Poll: We asked 663 wikiHow readers, and 58% agreed that the best way to prioritize self-care is to get regular exercise and physical activity . [Take Poll]
  3. Thoughts also have their own vibration, so negative thoughts can drag you down to a lower vibration, and thinking positively can help you get to a higher frequency. It can also have great effects on your health, leading to increased lifespan, lower rates of depression, and greater resistance to illness. [19] Here are some tips to think more positively :
    • Practice positive self-talk. This means following the golden rule: don’t say anything to yourself that you wouldn’t say to someone else. [20]
      • Be kind, encouraging, and gentle with yourself. Remember, you deserve the same kindness you would show others!
    • Try reframing. This involves shifting your perspective to focus on the positive in a situation, rather than the negative.
      • For example, if you’re stuck in traffic, try to focus on feeling gratitude for having a car that can get you where you need to be. [21]
      • Or, if you receive a bad grade, try to think of it as an opportunity to learn and grow, rather than a disappointment.
  4. Gratitude is a powerful force that can carry you to a high vibrational state. [22] It can also have a positive effect on your mental health—research shows that gratitude is consistently associated with greater happiness and wellbeing. [23] Here are some tips for cultivating gratitude:
  5. Wellness practices like yoga and spiritual practices like healing with crystals can help boost your positive energy and raise your vibrations. Don’t be afraid to try something new—it can broaden your perspective and help you cultivate a high-vibrational lifestyle!
    • Incorporate yoga into your schedule to promote your physical and mental wellbeing.
      • Check out a beginner’s class, or practice in the comfort of your home with online instructional videos!
    • Stones like amethyst and rose quartz promote connection and love. Place them around your home, wear them in jewelry, or carry them in your bag to make use of their properties. [26]
  6. Many wellness and spirituality communities believe that eating animal products, such as meat, dairy or eggs, has a negative affect on your energy frequency. Additionally, many believe that heavy, unhealthy foods can also lower your vibrations. [27] Eating a higher vibrational diet filled with whole foods, fruits, and vegetables can help you vibrate at a higher frequency.
    • Don’t worry—you don’t have to go fully vegan or become a vegetarian to raise your vibrations if you’re not comfortable with that!
      • Simply cutting back on meat products and incorporating more plant-based meals into your diet can have a positive effect.
      • Try incorporating a meatless Monday into your routine (abstaining from eating meat one day per week), and see how you feel.
    • Abstain from overly processed or packaged food, or have them in moderation, in order to incorporate more whole foods into your diet.
  7. Since alcohol is a depressant, too much of it can lower your vibrations. Lowering your alcohol intake can help you live a more high vibrational life, and it can also have a positive effect on your physical and mental health. [28]
    • If you’re looking to take a break from alcohol, try out some fun mocktail recipes, or check out sober bars or events in your area!
  8. The energies of the people around us can have a serious effect on our own energies. Spending time with low vibrational people can bring you down to a lower frequency, while spending time with high vibrational people can help you vibrate on a higher level. [29] Surround yourself with people who make you feel loved and supported, rather than people who treat you or others poorly.

    Expert Answer
    It's all about pure thoughts and deeds! The cleaner and purer you are, the higher your vibration can go. Drink plenty of pure, clean water (like distilled water) so your body can use what it needs. You can also try to do a technique where you get of your body and then come back in, like unconscious meditation. In those moments when your body's asleep, your spirit goes outside of your body; when it comes back, in you'll be at a higher vibration. For example, when you wake up from a short nap and feel like the room is vibrating, the vibration is actually your spirit coming back in with a higher frequency.
