Episode 079 โ How To Shift Your Vibration with Sahara Rose
By Sahara Rose
Namaste. Itโs Sahara Rose, and welcome back to the โHighest Selfโ podcast. A place where we discuss what makes you your soulโs highest evolvement. Before we get started with this weekโs episode, I am so excited to announce to you my new offering: the โDoshas and Dharmaโ program is back. It is all about how you can discover your purposeย and make an impact in a four-week immersive experience that is totally online so you can be anywhere in the world coaching with me and other phenomenal people in a group coaching setting through the power of the internet.
So this is for you if you know that something else is out there, and that it is possible to make a living doing what you love, but you just donโt know what that thing is. And youโre a little bit confused on which path to turn, and what youโre really good at, and how you can make money doing it, and you need the support of a coach and a community to help you see the other side. And I get it because Iโve been thereโlost, confused, not trusting myself, and even the last year drastically changing my life around from blogging to best-selling author and really making my dreams, my goals, and my visions my reality.
And I created this โDoshas and Dharmaโ program to show you that the doshic constitution that you have, the gifts that you are born with is exactly related to your dharma, your life purpose. And when youโre stepping up to that purpose, thatโs how you can serve the world and help more people. So if youโre interested, head over to my website: iamsahararose. I am taking applicants now. Every week thereโs going to be a video, a live call with me, plus a group coaching program with your โDoshas and Dharmaโ coach in a small group coaching setting, so youโre going to get all of that as part of the program. I have the syllabus, more information, everything on my website, itโs also on the show notes.
So head over there if youโre feeling the call, you want to work with me on a closer setting and you want to be motivated and inspired and on the path and you donโt want to waste any more time. Because thatโs what happens when we donโt sign up for programs, we donโt invest our money, we donโt invest our time and action. We end up just wasting our time, wasting our life and not making as big of an impact as we can. So Iโm so excited to introduce to you the โDoshas and Dharmaโ program.
Iโm going to fill you guys in on a secret, and this is a secret I see all successful people that I meet do, but no one really talks about. And since I love you guys, and youโre my โHighest Selfโ podcast squad, Iโm going to fill you in on it, okay? Successful people never walk into a project without setting up their vibration to match that project. Now, most of them probably donโt really even know what the word vibration means, but theyโre still doing it.
So let me break that down, like what does that mean to set the vibration for that thing that youโre going to do. Iโll give myself as an example. Right now, Iโm working on two major projects. One project is a very, very spiritual book, very, very Shakti, feminine energy, and I need to be in this sort of like very airy, connected with source space. The other project Iโm working on is very, very pragmatic, action-oriented, communicating with the average person who doesnโt know anything about spirituality, and I need to get into that space.
So most people, they say, โYou know, chunk up your time. Spend two hours doing that, and then take two hours doing the other thing, and just create a schedule around it, right?โ This doesnโt work. I mean, you can get it done, but it wonโt be your best work. The reason is because the energy that you come into something with is what your output will be. So if I come into my spiritual project after just completing my very pragmatic, businessy project, Iโm not going to reach those heightened levels because my energy is in the lower chakra, itโs very connected to the earth. And then suddenly I have to move up to the third eye crown chakra, receiving energy from source, and itโs not a transition that can happen instantly, it requires preparation.
So what you have to do is you have to set up your vibration to prepare yourself for that thing that you want to do. Now letโs say you want to write that business book, something like that. You should do something thatโs going to connect you with your root chakra. So going on a hike, spending time in nature, spending time with just mother earth. These are all things that are going to root you down. You should eat more root vegetables, more warming foods, more spices, these things are going to get you really in your body.
You should do hip circles, hip circles are great for activating the sacral chakra, which is in charge of sensuality, and creativity, and abundance. You know, every time Iโm doing my taxes, Iโm like doing hip circles in my chair because I really need to get in body, and really activate that sacral chakra. And then Iโm like, โWhoa, I love doing taxes.โ No, Iโm never like that, but at least Iโm able to do it, and Iโm able to see this as a blessing that I am so fortunate that I get to do what I love. And because I do what I love, I get to file taxes, and I get to support the beautiful people of this country. See it that way.
But if I had done this like super transcendental meditation and then gone into filing my taxes, or trying to write a business book, those are two very different places. And though I could do it, my energy is not going to be best suited for that. So think about that thing that you are working on. And envision what chakra itโs related to, what type of energy are you using? Is it really grounding energy? Is it more esoteric energy? Are you cultivating kapha, pitta, or vata to do that thing? Vata would be your more painting, writing poetry, writing spiritual texts, things like that. Pitta would be like you have steps you need to take, you have to take action, check things off your to-do list and go. Kapha would be you have to hold space for someone, you have to connect with them, you have to listen and be an empath, you know.
And this doesnโt just apply to work, this applies to everything in life. Right now we are going through this shift where women were not treated equally as men, and the Feminist movement happened, and that became very much about women being equal to men. And then some of that, not all of it, shifted into woman becoming men to get respected by them. And then that turned into us losing our femininity to be Feminists, whereas the real definition of the word Feminist is just to think men and women are equal. Like if youโre not a Feminist, then you donโt think man and woman are equal. So I think everyone listening is a Feminist, but maybe they donโt like the way Feminism has been depicted because it has been so in the masculine.
So a lot of us, weโre functioning on a daily basis in our masculine. Weโre working, weโre getting things done, weโre making phone calls, weโre doing all the things that the guys used to only do. And then our boyfriend, husband, whoever comes home and weโre in this super Shiva, yang, masculine energy, and then thereโs no longer the polarity, thereโs no longer the difference, and the difference is what makes us click.
So an easy thing to do when you choose to get off your work grind and to spend time with your significant otherโmale or femaleโthereโs still polarity even in same sex relationships. What I like to do is to change my outfit, to maybe take a shower, to put something that smells nice on, like some essential oils. And Iโll say in my head, literally, โSoften. Soften.โ And that right there is that vibrational shift that I need to fully receive my partner and not come forth in this, โOh my god, look what I did today! Whoo! Boss, boss!โ Itโs like I do that too, a lot of times, but I need to if Iโm going to maintain a strong relationship, there needs to be that polarity. It canโt be two bros, there needs to be the feminine and the masculine.
So you can do this with your relationships going from work mode to partner mode. You can do this with anything. Letโs say you want to give a speech and youโre about to present in front of people. Instead of what a lot of people do before, โOh my god, Iโm so nervous, Iโm gonna fail, this is gonna suck, how does my hair look, oh my god, I have something in my teeth,โ freaking the F out. Come into that place as if you had already given your speech. You walk in like, โHello, so great to meet you guys, thank you, thank you so much,โ as if you had already presented and everyone wants to get your autograph and take a picture with you. Come in with that level of energy.
And then when you walk onto that stage, youโve already won the crowd. You donโt need to worry about impressing them because energetically youโre holding that vibration of this was a hit. So you can do this with anything. And I also recommend if youโre shifting gears throughout your day, do something that will take you totally off gear so you can come back with a new perspective.
So letโs say youโre, you know, going client, to client, to client, and then youโre going to go and write your blog post, or write your book, or something like that. When youโre working with clients, that takes a certain type of energy. The energy of kapha, holding space, listening, asking the right questions, being there. But then when it comes to writing your blog post or book, thatโs going to require more vata energy as well as pitta to make you write the book.
So if youโre coming forth with this, โMmโฆ yesโฆ And how did that feel? And what else?โ If you come forth with that energy with writing your book, youโre probably just going to sit there for a little while and kind of stare blankly at the screen and not know what the hell to write because youโve just had all of this knowledge and information and words just coming to you from all these people youโve been dealing with. But now when itโs time for you to express your own voice, itโs stuck, itโs stagnant, and that is kapha.
So to shift out of that kapha into that more vata space, youโve got to move through the pitta. Do something that gets that fire going, you know. Go to a workout class, go on a hike, do some yoga, do some jumping Jacks, do something that gets you energized. You know, like you could literally just jump next to your chair and just scream, โWhoo whoo whoo whoo whoo,โ while jumping up and down and just waving around your hands. You could do a dance break. I recommend changing environments because sometimes if youโre just standing next to your chair going, โWhoo whoo,โ when you sit back down itโs like, โHmmโฆโ Bodyโs like no, I know you werenโt really at a concert, you were just in front of me. So I recommend shifting environments because then youโre really surrounded by something totally new, it shifts your perspective, and then you can come back into that seat as a new person.
So go on a walk around your neighborhood, go to the gym, go to the meditation center. Whatever you need, even just sitting outside by your local tree, thatโs great. And that will give you that energetic shift that you need to then move your body so then you can move up the chakra, and then from moving your body and getting to that point of a little bit of exhaustion, the energy starts to stream upwards, and thatโs how we enter the thoughts.
And have you ever noticed that you get some of your best thoughts when youโre doing yoga, or on your walks, or running, or biking? Itโs because when the body is in movement, and the bodyโs in motion, then the mind is like, โOh wow, I can stop stressing out about all these things because I just need to focus on this moment.โ And then your higher self, which is past your mind, itโs really connected to source, thatโs when you can stream in the information.
But normally, weโre operating from this fight or flight lower brain response, which is situation happens, how do I respond, situation happens, how do I respond? E-mail, this, that, boom, weโre like ninjas throughout the day. Like ,โGot you over there never e-mail, ooh, Instagram post, damn, youโre going to kick my ass.โ Thatโs how we go through our days. But when we shift that, we move our bodies, and then we think, โHuh, what do I really want to put out there? Whatโs the kind of content I really want to give out? Whatโs my true reason behind this? Where do I really want to see this going?โ You know, you get out of the action steps and you get into the highest self.
So move your body, whatever it may be, even if youโre injured, you can you know, do the rowing machine, thereโs really no excuse to not move. I was just reading this book, โRise and Grind,โ and itโs the guy from โShark Tank,โ Daymond something, and he talks about all these different stories of their incredible, you know, journeys that theyโve had.
And thereโs this boy who was born with no arms and no legs, and growing up he became like an athlete because he wanted to fit in with the other kids with no arms and no legs. He became the best person on his football team, and basketball team, he would literally use his elbows and crawl and play that way. He then decided I want to climb Mt. Kilimanjaro, you know, one of the tallest mountains in Africa. And he did, he climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro without arms and legs. He just had his knee stubs, which kept bleeding and breaking open, and his elbow stubs. And he just literally baby crawls all the way up.
So thereโs no excuse that your hip hurts, and your shoulder hurts, and your back hurts because this guy doesnโt have arms and legs, and he just climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro, and now continues to climb mountains all the time. And thatโs where mindset comes in. That, I mean that guy has a lot of pitta energy, strong pitta energy, but also connected with source. Because source is telling him, โYou can do this, you have the strength to do this.โ And by him doing this, he sets this example for all of us that heโs just become like an anecdote of you can set your mind to anything. So source has also given him this profound strength because his climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro is serving the purpose of inspiring thousands of people who hear about him climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro.
And thatโs how manifestation works, thatโs how flow and alignment works. It works when what is best for you is best for the collective. Itโs when you are going to teach and share that struggle that you went through. Then the universe just guides you through it because it knows youโre going to give it back. But if thatโs never your intention and youโre just hear for yourself, and screw everyone else, the universe is like, โSorry we gave you life, and we donโt play that game.โ And thatโs how you end up stuck, stagnant, bad things keep happening to you.
So if we want to move forward we have to set that vibration of possibility, of hope, of change. Of truly walking our talks, not just writing about it, not just vision boarding about it, not just talking to your life coach about it, but actually doing it. And doing it can start super, super small, but keep it up, donโt start small and then stop. So many bask in the glory before theyโve done the thing. You know, celebrate and keep on moving, right? Itโs like if youโre climbing a mountain, yeah, you could look up at 50 feet and admire your view, you could look up at 100 feet and admire your view. But admire the view, but that doesnโt mean you have to stop.
So keep going, however big your soul is, is how far youโre going to keep going. And some people were born on this earth with very big soul missions, and they were meant to inspire and reach thousands and millions and maybe billions of people. And I think all of you listening are one of those people, otherwise you wouldnโt be here. So set that vibration, donโt go from one thing to another, your clients to your coaching, your work to your partner. Create a space, create a pause, shift things up, move your body, think something different, read a piece of poetry. You know, itโs like when youโre sniffing all these different smells, they give you these coffee beans to smell because the coffee beans just kind of, โWhoo!โ They take you out of like essential oil one versus essential oil two, and then, you know, they all end up smelling the same after a point. But the coffee beans just take you out of that vibration so that when you come back, youโre like, โAh, geranium,โ you know.
So this is why we need to change things up. If you keep doing the same thing, youโre going to keep getting the same results. Set the vibration, be the person whoโs already achieved that thing. Carry the energy of the person that you see yourself as in one year, ten years, five years. And I know, itโs hard and you donโt know how, and sometimes it takes literally faking it til you make it. It literally takes just telling yourself, like โIโm amazing, I have a โNew York Timesโ best-selling book, Iโm a TED Talk speaker, and I have a national holiday.โ You know, say those things, say your wildest dreams. And you know, you donโt need to post on Instagram about it, but tell yourself it and own it. Because you really tell yourself these things, you hold yourself accountable and you keep yourself from playing small. So set that vibration, keep the flow moving, and I look forward to seeing you guys on the top of Mt. Kilimanjaro.
