Even though we can’t see it with the naked eye, everything in our universe is in a constant state of motion. This motion, also referred to as vibration, reflects on what’s happening on a spiritual, mental and physical level. All things have a certain vibration, from a rock on the ground to a fully functional human being. When the vibrations of our physical and emotional bodies are out of alignment with the world around us, it can cause disease.

1. Connecting to the Earth

When you’re feeling out of balance, one of the quickest ways to fix the problem is to go outside. Sunlight, fresh air, and the bare ground can all work wonders on our vibrations. It’s a good idea to spend at least 15 to 20 minutes outside each day if you can. If you don’t have a private yard to enjoy, consider a short walk to a local park. Even a few minutes sitting in the grass will make a difference.

2. Natural Foods

How can you be in alignment if you don’t feed your body properly? Junk foods, high-fructose corn syrup, trans fats and preservatives all weigh your body down. By choosing a natural diet based on healthy whole foods, you’ll give yourself the best shot at staying balanced.

3. Sound Healing

Music is especially vibrant. It has the power to move people both physically and emotionally. Ancient shamans recognized this, which is why they began using chants and drumming in healing ceremonies. In many ancient cultures, healing with sound was considered a solid science. The right sounds can actually clear physical and emotional blockages, restoring harmony to the entire body and soul.

4. Connecting to your Higher Self

Spend time in the morning and before bed connecting to yourself and your higher power. Pray, meditate, or just simply have a conversation with your higher power about what intentions you want to create for the day and how you did at the end of the day.
