ENERGY

We throw around the word energy as if it’s as light as a feather itself, yet if I’ve learned anything, it’s that it is anything but.

Energy is the very fabric of life.

It flows through our being, becomes the essence we embody, the aura we share, even the pace at which we walk. It can be heavy and dark, fierce and forceful… yet equally soft, gentle, comforting and welcoming. It is the quiet compass we use to navigate foreign fields.

Energy is everything.

Yet the reason it’s been on my mind lately, sits in the realm of how casually it’s disregarded. It’s in the innocence of those who seek it endlessly but never replenish it. In the pull of those who take without asking, convinced their reasons are somehow justified, or worse yet, their lack of consciousness to recognise they’re even doing such a thing.

And here lies the difference between low frequency and high frequency individuals. I know… it sounds a little mystical, maybe even unlike me. But we did own a teepee and sign and dance inside it around a roaring fire when I was a kid, (true story, Waiheke Island’s finest breed). Interestingly enough, this is something I only truly began to understand last year.

Let’s break it down.

Low frequency = It is not evil, nor malicious, it is simply unconscious.

It is the state of constantly draining the source without realising it. A narrow field of vision. An inability to escape internal battles, relying on others to hold your emotional weight.

These are the people who unintentionally pull you down with them, who chase empty desires and resist growth. Not because they wish harm, but because it is easier to sit in familiar discomfort with company,

than it is to rise alone.

Harsh, but so fucking true.

High frequency = self-sustaining.

It is the individual who learns to generate their own energy and gives it freely without expectation. The ones who understand that growth is the highest form of power, and regardless of challenge, they answer the call. They inspire, teach and uplift. Not for applause, but because their overflow allows it. High frequency is not a destination you reach, it is a state you cultivate when you realise,

what you project - becomes the feedback loop that you receive.

But here is the part few speak about.

Not all who discover their higher frequency, know how to protect it. Often, those who carry powerful light forget they are not limitless. They allow others to feed from them until they are depleted, mistaking generosity for obligation.

Sometimes it is loneliness. Sometimes ego. Sometimes the fear of walking the path alone is too much to handle, and so, rather than risk the silence, they bleed themselves dry.

And this is the lesson at the core of my understanding:

Discovering your higher frequency, does not mean you have learnt how to use it wisely.

Some lessons can only be learnt through experience. You can love people deeply and still recognise that their journey is not yours to carry. Explaining your discoveries will not save them, as they must arrive there themselves.

Understanding your energy, observing what others bring into your space, recognising your boundaries and then applying them, that is one of life’s greatest challenges. Loneliness, vanity, greed, ego… these are often the very things that stop us from protecting ourselves.

And why is protecting our energy so important?

Because when we are drained, clarity disappears.

Our intuition dulls.

Our creativity shrinks.

We lose the very magnetism that attracts what our soul truly desires and needs.

You cannot pour from an empty cup. You cannot influence from a hollow space. You cannot walk beside those you deeply call for or aspire to become while running on nothing.

What we embody is what we attract.

Energy recognises itself.
