THE POWER OF WORDS

Good morning, everyone! I hope your week has been wonderful as yet another comes to a close. 

Before I dive into today’s topic, I would like to address a question from a reader about my posting schedule. My plan is to post weekly, unless there is a request otherwise. The ‘unknown’ aspect of this blog is one of the reasons I started it—to embrace the freedom to write, and discover where it leads me. For now, connecting with my readers by expressing my thoughts and experiences, brings me much joy and motivation to continue.

This week I have had many interesting conversations about the POWER OF WORDS and their influence on our perceptions and relationships. It fascinates me that many people are unaware, and have not been taught, that words have their own frequency. These frequencies resonate with, and attract, existing frequency patterns in the Universe. This is an important concept to grasp. To highlight this point, have you ever noticed that when you speak negatively, negative things seem to follow and when you speak positively, positive things happen? 

I believe that recognising our patterns and understanding how words can influence the trajectory of our experiences and relationships can transform our reality to work for us, and not against us! We begin to realise that yes, we are responsible for our circumstances and yes, we have the power to begin to change these circumstances with words alone. It is those 'aha' moments that drive me to keep having these conversations. I love seeing the positive transformations that occur when people grasp this, dare I say, truth.

The first memory I thought of when choosing this topic was watching the Disney movie 'Snow White’ as a child, captivated by the witch in front of the mirror, reciting the words "Mirror Mirror on the wall, who’s the fairest of them all”? I used to think to myself, "of course Snow White is meant to be prettier for the story”, but I wondered why the witch would invite a negative response, creating anger and jealousy for herself?

It honestly used to bug me when people would invite negativity into their lives by asking questions that were aligned with a possible negative perspective. Wasn’t it obvious that if you questioned your worth, then your worth would be questioned? As a child, I believed that if I said something about myself, the Universe would grant my wish and align all choices and behaviours to match the words I spoke. I learnt pretty quickly that if I used positive words, I would eventually achieve positive results. It seemed like a foreign concept to most, especially coming from someone so young, so I kept these ideas safely tucked away in my diary for the longest time. 

I remember trying to discuss this topic with many adults during my teenage years, receiving no encouragement to explore further. Despite the curious, and often sarcastic questions, I enjoyed the debates. Over the years, I gained the courage to put my ideas into practice, proving that positive words can create positive outcomes and helping others achieve this. 

Fast forward 20years, I tried to formally challenge this idea once again and recall a disagreement with my psychology lecturer over my results of an experiment. I argued that if I believed an outcome to be true, I could influence the result. Nope! That was a bit too woo-woo for him, shutting me down and sticking firmly to ‘right and wrong’ answers. Needless to say, I never excelled in statistics but thrived in social psychology! I would like to go back and have that same conversation with that same lecturer, referencing what we now know about quantum physics, epigenetics and neuroplasticity!

Going back to the power of words, how often do we use negative language to ourselves and others, fully aware that the response will likely be negative, but we do it anyway? Like the witch in the story. From an evolutionary standpoint, it is common to anticipate negative outcomes as a protective measure. However, what we often overlook is the loop or pattern we create for ourselves by setting the foundations for the continuation of similar energy patterns. Let me explain. 

Everything in nature carries a frequency, measured in Hertz. To simplify what this means, imagine tapping your hand against your thigh for one minute (a cycle). The amount of times you tap your hand in one cycle is the Hertz measurement. One beat is 1Hz and so on. The higher the hertz, the higher the frequency, which is precisely what we want if we choose to live in a state of joy and happiness.  

Now, consider that words carry their own unique frequencies, transmitted through sound. When spoken, words emit a frequency pattern that affects the surrounding energy and its direction. Negative words, which carry low frequency, attract or create negative energy. Positive words, with their higher frequency, draw in or generate positive energy. I invite you at this point to think about what kind of energy your words are projecting and attracting?

Another way of looking at this is to think of times when you are ‘drawn’ to particular people. That is your frequency resonating, (which means recognising), the other frequency. When frequencies meet, they merge, attract and continue to resonate together, even if you are not consciously aware of it. Now consider the words you use and how these words align with certain people. Do you find yourself attracting people who think and speak negatively when you are doing the same? It is empowering to remember that you have created this attraction and you have the power to change it.  

It is important to reiterate that negative language emits low frequencies and positive language radiates high frequencies. For instance, words of shame vibrate at a dense 20Hz, whereas words of joy resonate at over 540Hz. This matters because high-frequency words attract high-frequency energy, people and circumstances.  When we ‘vibe’ at a certain level, it creates a snowball effect - drawing to us similar vibes and perpetuating the cycle. Recognising this pattern empowers us to change our frequency and, consequently, our reality and experiences. 

There is plenty of evidence supporting this idea, and I encourage you to explore this further. When I began to understand how words can even impact our DNA, I became intensely mindful of the language I used, with myself and others. Was I speaking words of low or high frequency and how was that affecting my present circumstances and opportunities? I even went down the rabbit hole of word origins and connecting many dots pertaining to intention behind language. For example, considering what we know about the power of words, what does the term ‘spelling’ really signify? It’s worth a thought...

I would also like to briefly introduce human biology into the discussion. As energetic beings, every part of our bodies - organs, bones, muscles- has its own frequency. Since we have established that words carry their own frequency patterns, it is important to remember that our bodies recognise and respond to these patterns. Therefore, our words can either promote healing or cause harm by influencing our energy. There is a wealth of information easily accessible on the internet to support this theory. Discovering that every part of the body, as well as everything in Nature, emits its own unique frequency definitely creates a shift in perspective in relation to our own healing!

In conclusion, I return to the story of the witch in the mirror. I will not seek validation through negative language, as I understand that inviting negativity into my energy field can lower my vibration. Instead, I choose to maintain a higher frequency by focusing on positive and uplifting words. I choose to be mindful of my language, for my own benefit and that of those around me. I choose to help others understand the power of positive language from an energy perspective. Even when things are crappy, I recognise that I have the power to shift my energy by choosing to speak positively to myself. I know that words have the power to transform my entire day. I hope this insight can transform yours as well.
