Energy is at the basis of everything. How freely your personal energy is flowing is the reason that you feel eager or distraught. It determines whether good ideas occur effortlessly or whether you struggle to find your creative flow. When your energy is aligned and moving with momentum, you’re actually aging in reverse. And, more easily attracting all you desire.
Here are 3 energy mastery principles you can apply to increase your vitality and prosperity, and start aging in reverse.
Principle #1: Our relationship to energy is the difference between someone who feels old and someone who is aging in reverse.
When you think about the difference between a child of 2 or 3 and an adult of 70 or 80, what’s the first thing that comes to mind? If you consider this in terms of energy, you realize there’s a lot more to it than skin elasticity and muscle tone.
The hallmark of youthful people is an openness to experiencing the present moment. They’re mentally flexible and prefer riding the wave of new ideas and possibilities over reliving the past. And because they’re curious, they’re tapped into the universal stream from which all creativity arises. With each new experience, they’re summoning more vitality and enthusiasm. Rather than becoming older and more set in their ways, they’re actually aging in reverse.
Now contrast this picture with most average adults. You’ll realize that as we age we tend to become set in our ways. What makes us feel old is that we’ve cut ourselves off from the universal energy stream that keeps us young.
When we’re living in our heads, interpreting the present moment through the lens of the past, we no longer experience each moment as new and fresh. Instead, we’re dragging our past beliefs, conclusions, and resentments forward into the present. This is a burden that grows heavier and heavier with time. Our resistance to what’s happening now cuts us off from the universal stream of vitality. Rather than aging in reverse, we begin to feel old.
Principle #2: Your mind can be your worst enemy or your most powerful ally for aging in reverse.
How you direct the focus of your mind has everything to do with the quality of the life experience you create.
Like everything in the universe, your thoughts generate an energetic signal, and different thoughts resonate at different vibrational frequencies. Some of these frequencies magnetize to us the outcomes we desire, while others attract outcomes that we dread. It’s something of a cosmic joke that the act of worrying about getting old actually accelerates the aging process!
You can’t think and speak about how broke you are and attract abundance at the same time. Likewise, you can’t feel heartbroken and be magnetic to love. When you look in the mirror and think about how fat you are, you’re actually pushing away the ideal body you desire to create. And in the same way, you can’t effectively age in reverse when you’re worried about getting old. In fact, worry is using your imagination to create the very experiences you’re hoping to avoid.
Energy mastery is about finally putting the horse in front of the cart.
There’s really no way around it. With every thought we think, we’re either advocating for our power or we’re arguing for our limitations. If you desire to age in reverse, you must begin to think and feel in ways that are consistent with that outcome. Energy mastery is about first understanding that you attract from the universe experiences that are consistent with the expectations you hold. And then it’s about deciding, on purpose, to think thoughts that align with the outcomes you desire rather than those you dread.
You have so many creative powers at your disposal. You can selectively sift through memories and relive the moments in time when you felt most passionate, youthful, and alive. Look around your life right now and notice every sign of new growth and regeneration. You can appreciate all the seemingly miraculous creations that take place on our planet every single day and allow yourself to be in awe. And most importantly, you can engage the power of your imagination to conjure the reality you desire. As Dr. Orison Marden, the author of Why Grow Old who founded Success magazine way back in 1897, wrote, “The face cannot betray the years until the mind has given its consent. The mind is the sculptor.”
Principle #3: In every moment, think, feel and do whatever brings you a sense of relief.
Consider again the difference between someone very old and someone very young. While most elderly people are consumed with what’s wrong and what hurts, young people are passionate about doing what feels good.
An energy master knows that when something feels good it means you’re on the right track! Feeling good is your most accurate indicator that your vibration is flying high and resistance-free. And in that good-feeling state, you are open to receive everything you’ve asked the universe to provide.
If reversing your age is your desire, make a commitment to be childlike and gravitate toward everyone and everything that feels good. And when you find yourself in a bad-feeling interaction or situation, understand that your most important priority is to tend to the split in your energy. In other words, make your energetic alignment your highest and the first order of business.
With practice, you’ll be able to discern just what needs to happen in order to soothe your energy when it’s wonky. Sometimes you don’t feel good because your energy is blocked or stagnant. In those cases, you want to reach for things that encourage your energy to flow. Move to another part of your home or office in order to get a fresh perspective. Get your body moving through some form of physical exercise. Sing loudly to your favorite song. Clear the clutter from a room or even a single drawer. And feel the release of resistance within you as you do.
At other times, your energy may be moving so fast that it’s more chaotic than harmonic. Your thoughts are going a million miles a minute and you’re not sure which of them to act on first.
In these moments, your best course of action is to withdraw from whatever you’re trying to focus on. Instead, focus on energy alignment. Close your eyes and take some slow, deep breaths. Rest in self-compassion and do your best to find acceptance for whatever is happening at the moment. Soothe yourself with words of appreciation and reassurance, as you would offer to a young child. Remember that the path to reversing aging is not one of forcing anything to happen, but becoming supple and childlike.
Reversing aging is a process of replacing lower, slower, or chaotic vibrational frequencies with higher, faster, and more harmonic vibrational frequencies that feel better. In other words, whenever you feel good, proclaim that you are, in that moment, reversing the aging process.
Energy mastery is the path to a continual, renewable Fountain of Youth.
