Where does your "vibration" fit?

I am a firm believer that everything on this planet has a vibrational level and that these levels can change; in living things the vibration can change by the second as it is determined by emotions.

A few months after my spiritual journey began I experience a radical shift in frienships. Primarily, I had a friend with whom I shared a lot. We had children the same ages, we loved to find bargains and enjoyed taking the kids to the park. At the time I met her, I was in flux and ill and in need of others to determine my value. As I began my spiritual journey, I started to feel empowered. I began to notice that my friend and I were not getting along so well. I didn't have the patience for discussions that a few months earlier I participated in willingly. My friend was not showing up any differently, I cannot blame her, I was different. We were no longer vibrationally in the same place.

I knew this, and knew that the friendship was no longer working for either one of us. But, I was unwilling and unschooled in how to move gracefully out of the relationship. What I discovered then is that the Universe will not support disharmony for long. Through a series of painful interactions, the friendship ended.

I was very reluctant to change the relationship for fear of discomfort and ended up in a situation where two people had hurt feelings.

It is not uncommon in my own life, and with clients, to find that relationships with peers with whom much was once in common begin to fall apart. Knowing that it's because one or more people are moving vibrationally to a new space really helps alleviate guilt and feelings of unworthiness. The nature of the Universe is impermanence, and change is a part of connecting to your flow. Allowing myself to be in relationships that evolve or change completely helps me show up as my authentic self. When I have to modify my thoughts and actions to "fit in," I end up enjoying life a lot less.
