The Law of Attraction: Learning To Move Up The "Emotional Scale"

The Power of Shifting Frequency!

Humans are emotional beings. In fact, we are energy beings.

This is exactly why our emotions give us precise feedback on where we are in relationship to our Inner Being, or Source of Love and Awareness.

E-motion = energy in motion.

If you have little or no awareness of the inner dimensions of your reality, then some, or even most parts, of your life will probably be an uphill struggle because you can’t effectively manage your own vibration.

Any negative emotion (which is always a reaction to ‘what is’) feeds your original thought about what you are experiencing, energising it, and then you have another similar thought that adds power to the first thought, and so on.

“What you think (and how you feel because of your thoughts) and what manifests in your experience always match. You get what you think about, whether it is something wanted or unwanted.” ~ Abraham-Hicks

The trick is to stay rooted in your body, so you don't allow this negative cycle to happen. As you feel the emotion, you watch, and you also breathe…

When your thoughts and emotions are generally positive, life will tend to work well for you but when you habitually generate negative thoughts and emotions in response to what is showing up, you will tend to go in a downhill spiral.

Using the emotional scale - consciously

Firstly, view the main image for this article (above).

Now pick a topic that’s triggering you — it could be about finances, health or personal relationships. Pick ONE.

Above you will see the emotional scale split into two parts (really it’s one fluid scale), as first given by Abraham-Hicks, and you will be ‘vibrating’ somewhere on it with regards to your topic.

Frustration and worry often go together.

Anger and Joy do not, they are very different in vibration.

The words on the scale are just pointers… they don’t matter so much as the frequencies behind the words.

When you focus strongly on a particular area of your life, you will find your ’emotional set point’ to be somewhere on this scale because of what you have been predominantly living and observing.

You will tend to be towards the top of the Emotional scale, if a particular area is working for you, and you will tend to be at the bottom if an area is not working.  It’s that simple.

The Power of a Shift

When working with the Law of Attraction, most people want to be at the top straight away but you can’t usually jump from chronic grumpy, negative feelings to feeling suddenly positive and upbeat. These vibrations are too different in their frequencies.

Your practiced, dominant frequency will ultimately prevail each time.

Another vital key is that you must incrementally reach for better feeling thoughts by learning to focus constructively.

This is not usually easy for the beginner because they are very practiced in offering an “unwanted” vibration, rather than a “wanted” vibration. As with all skills, it takes time and patience, along with depth of understanding.

Student example

I’d like to share an example with you that has helped many others along the way.

After covering the mechanics of moving up the emotional scale, my law of attraction students were invited to go home and practice on an area that needed cleaning up. 

One of them decided to focus on the area of personal relationships, as she was having a lot of difficulties at work with her boss – ultimately, she felt was being spoken to and treated disrespectfully by her boss, whom we will call ‘Ms X’.

She felt that Miss X distrusted her and often spoke to her with animosity, which was clearly an unwanted situation.

Unwanted situations arise for many reasons but their purpose is to lead to clarity about we really want to bring into our lives. If we can learn to focus quickly and consistently on what we do want, then the Law will work for us, rather than against us.

Many people are so accustomed to giving their attention to the unwanted aspects of their vibrational mix that they find it extremely difficult to focus on the wanted aspects. They are trapped in a vicious cycle of ‘observation’ and ‘reaction’.

The good news is that our Inner Being is attuned to what we want, and is always there for us, and holding a signal of joy that we can re-attune ourselves to. It is always the signal we want to follow!

When we deviate from that path, we immediately feel ‘off track’ and experience negativity of all kinds.

As my student focused on the unwanted situation, it was very easy to identify the ‘wanted’ solution. She wanted to be spoken to with love, respect and appreciation by her boss, whom we called “Ms X.”

Unfortunately, her initial attempt to move up the emotional scale was hampered by trying to ‘jump’ vibrational ranges. She also tended to magnify her negative feelings by refocusing on the unwanted aspects of the relationship that had gone on for some time.

Below you will see her initial attempt to clean up her vibration by incrementally moving up the emotional scale. My comments in brackets in italics.

• It feels horrible when Ms X dumps this negativity on me! (Starting point, identifying where she is standing)

• I feel really bad about myself when she treats me so poor! (Feeling worse, magnifies the negative energy here)

• I don’t understand why she has to be so awful and how she can think it’s okay to behave so poorly! (Feeling worse, blame energy)

• Strangely, I think perhaps she doesn’t fully realise what she is doing. (Feeling better, shifting to acknowledge another perspective)
