What’s your frequency?

I like to be high and some seem to prefer low but all of us have set points. Weight, happiness, tolerance for bullshit–everyone’s internal thresholds are hard-wired into our neural networks. It’s not that we can’t change the patterns, but have you ever tried rewiring a home? It’s a lot of work.

Of all the things I work at changing, raising my frequency is the most immediately rewarding. I like to feel good as often as possible, and that is hard to accomplish if I’m being negative or sinking into sadness. Thankfully, I’m learning how to spot my own descent, how to recognize pain and allow it to heal.

Yoga is not supposed to hurt, and yet people do get injured. I have strained a muscle before. It happened because I was listening to the teacher more closely than to my Self, and I wanted to do exactly what I was told, and so I told my body to stretch more than it was prepared to, and the pain was sharp and sudden. I backed off right away but the damage was done: For the next month or two I had to be exceptionally aware of how postures affected my injured muscle. Failure to pay attention meant more pain.

When my frequency is low awareness eludes me. I am caught up in myself and not my Self. It hurts. When my frequency rises, I feel lighter, illuminated. My heart opens, and I want to listen, to learn and connect. I believe I can raise my set point of awareness, and maintain a frequency that exudes and attracts love. It just takes patient practice.
