What’s your frequency?
All of us have two main frequencies. The first, driven by the amygdala, kicks in when we watch a disturbing news story. It sends out a frequency of Wow! It’s a dog-eat dog world out there. I’d better protect myself. Better shut down.
The other frequency, the one that knows reality is never frightening, radios out love and trust in our fellow humans. By believing in oneness, in joy, we can, together, literally rewrite the energy field of the planet.
A study by James Fowler of the university of California-San Diego and Nicholas Christakis of Harvard showed that just observing generosity spurs acts of good. So one person feeding a quarter into an expired parking meter can create a domino effect, inspiring dozens and even hundreds of people to be generous. Their study, funded by the National Institute on Aging, proved that just watching someone perform a good deed – say a homeless guy returning an expensive bracelet or a waitress buying lunch for a table of servicemen – inspires people to pay it forward. They found it can go on for three degrees – in other words, your action inspires my action that inspires someone else’s action.
But I say that’s an understatement. I guy in Canada’s Okanagan Valley told me about the time he drove up to the window of a Tim Horton’s in Windfield, British Columbia, only to be informed that his coffee had been taken care of by the person in front of him. Inspired, he decided to “pay it forward” to the next car in line.
Later, he was talking to his neighbor who works there, who told him the paying it forward went on for a full four and a half hours. FOUR AND A HALF Hours of unbridled generosity.
This is NO small thing. One act of generosity – one germ of love, of hope of optimism-can multiply and become a huge force for love.
I belong to the Heart Math community and whenever there is a full moon, we do global coherence meditations where we send out (from the heart intelligence) love and compassion around the world.
It’s a great frequency and helps your physiology.
