I’m obsessed by the idea that we are energy. I’ve believed it and operated from this understanding for decades. Science supports this now…everything is energy, not just sound and light waves, but our thoughts, our emotions, our bodies and systems, even the ‘solid’ objects around us.
As highly sensing people, we tend to pick up on, feel, become aware of energy at a deeper level than average. We are all energy beings, and if we HSPs acknowledge this and focus on it, it can really help us to navigate the busy world and help us connect at a deeper level.

Here are some great quotes about energy:
“If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration.” Nikola Tesla
“Your personal vibration or energy state is a blend of the contracted or expanded frequencies of your body, emotions and thoughts at any given moment. The more you allow your soul to shine through you, the higher your personal vibration will be.” Penney Peirce
“The law of attraction is all about vibration. Everything is vibrational, your thoughts, your ideas, every being. You will draw to you whatever vibration matches yours, wanted or unwanted.” Anonymous
The last one in particular I think is of note…especially the ‘wanted or unwanted’ part. Because we are energy…everything is energy, intention is key to creating the life we want, but being aware that what we’re NOT aware of can be creating the “wrong” things is equally, or even more, important. Having awareness and intention is everything.
Energy doesn’t have preferences or judgment or play favorites, nor punish. It responds in kind to what we offer, like a magnet. If we’re not aware of our unconscious thoughts that don’t serve us, we’ll continue to create what we don’t want. And this will seem like it’s not working.
This is an ongoing practice, to be aware of our thoughts and beliefs that are getting in the way of what we really want, and shifting them. I am working on this continually. Techniques like EFT/Tapping can help us become aware of these beliefs and release them and install more helpful thoughts.
