Recently there has been a lot of discussion on Authenticity vs Love and which one is of a higher frequency. This has provided an interesting deep dive into the unique place that each holds within the emotional spectrum.
Thoughts and emotions vibrate at certain frequencies of energy which directly impact our overall physical and emotional well-being.For example, authenticity and love vibrate at a much higher frequency than fear and anger.
The “SPANE” Scale of emotion, which is a conceptual scale developed by Ed Diener et al. in 2009, measures the intensity and frequency of emotions. The Spane Scale placed authenticity at a higher frequency than love. Truthfully, how can you deeply love yourself or others with purity of intention if you are not being 100% authentically yourself?
Many of us have been taught to be people pleasers and have conformed our natural states of being to fit into external expectations. These are our conditioned behaviors that drain us of energy and prevent us from reaching our full potential, and authentic relationships. Showing up this way in the world conflicts directly with our true, authentic selves.
On the other hand, when our internal world aligns with our external actions, we in fact reduce internal conflict resulting in higher states of wellbeing and harmony in our relationships, with authentic love being manifested. We are then able to foster a sense of inner peace and resiliency by trusting our soul’s inner compass and are once again aligned with our innermost values, personality, spirit, and character.
Studies have indicated that individual’s who are living authentically tend to have higher self-esteem, lower stress-levels, deeper & more satisfying relationships, and better psychological health. Authenticity fosters within you a sense of peace and secure belonging. In it’s highest form, authenticity enhances the experience of love, which causes our emotional bonds to become profoundly genuine. Reason being: Energy Attracts Like Energy.
Authenticity is being true to your soul. Embracing your soul’s authenticity can be a challenging journey but it will also become one of the most rewarding journeys you can embark upon.
