Good Vibes Messages for Yourself

  1. Good vibes start with you! As magic and manifestation expert Leza Labrador points out, "Talking good to yourself raises your vibration. Talking bad to yourself lowers your vibration."[3] It's hard to share the love with others if your own vibration level is low, so try some of these empowering mantras to start your day with a positive outlook:
    • All I need is within me.
    • Anything is possible.
    • Born ready.
    • I am lovable and I am loved.
    • I am protected.
    • I am resilient.
    • Carpe diem!
    • I am rising, I am strong, I am powerful.
    • Do what you love, love what you do.
    • Enjoy the little things.
    • Everything is possible!
    • Certified meditation coach Soken Graf recommends reciting the loving-kindness meditation to boost not only your own vibes, but the vibes of everyone around you: "It's divided up into a progression of five," he explains. "It starts with 'May I be happy, may I be well,' and then you imagine somebody else who you're close to and you [say], 'May that person be happy, may that person be well.'"[4]
    • "And then somebody [you feel neutral towards]: 'May that person be happy and may that person be well,' and then someone you're having difficulty with: 'May that person be happy, may that person be well.'"[5]
    • "And then you take that whole group of people and [say], 'May all those people be happy, may all those people be well,' and then finally, you extend that out: 'May all beings be happy, and may all beings be well.'"[6]

What does it mean to send someone positive vibes?

PDF download Download Article
  1. 1
    For some people, sending positive vibes simply means you're thinking about them. Welters says she sees this as “sending someone good intentions or having good intentions for that person.”[7] Many people use "sending positive vibes" in the same way they might say "You're in my prayers"—as a way to say that someone’s in your thoughts and you're hoping good things come their way (but with less of a religious intent).
  2. 2
    For others, sending positive vibes is a literal action. In metaphysics, vibes—short for vibrations—are real measurements of our energy. People who follow metaphysics believe all of our energies are connected, and that "sending positive vibes" involves directing positive energy towards others to help raise their vibration level through manifestation.

  1. 1
    Are positive vibes real? It depends on who you ask! For some people, "sending good vibes" just means "wishing the best," but for others, like astrologer and intuitive healer Tracey McKee, vibrations are a literal thing: "We're all vibration, we're all energy," she explains.[11]

    Every thought that you think either raises your frequency or lowers it. The feeling associated with the highest vibrational frequency, as far as I know, is love.

  2. 2
    Are "positive vibes" the same as "thoughts and prayers"? For many people, "Sending positive vibes your way!" is essentially another way to say "You're in my thoughts and prayers." Many people use these phrases in an encouraging and sincere way when someone they know is going through a difficult time. It's a way to acknowledge another person's pain, even if you're not totally sure what to say—and it's often so hard to know what to say in moments like that!
    • However, for many people, "thoughts and prayers" has become a hollow phrase due to overuse, especially during times of unspeakable tragedy, such as after a mass shooting.
    • Some people may prefer to use "sending positive vibes" in its place, but for others, "sending positive vibes" may also come across as dismissive or as empty words.
    • "There is a real danger in this field of metaphysics of…toxic positivity," McKee muses, "where we just focus on the positive…. If you want a higher vibration, look at yourself and do the work."[12] In other words, sharing positive vibes is about more than just saying empty words, but making sure your beliefs and actions line up.
  3. 3
    What's the difference between "positive vibes" and "praying"? For some people, "praying" and "sending good vibes" mean essentially the same thing: that they're thinking of you and wishing you the best. But for others, "sending positive vibes" is a spiritual, but not religious, way of expressing love and concern.
    • "Sending positive vibes" can be a more inclusive way of offering support to people who may not be religious, as well as a more authentic way of expressing care if you yourself aren't religious.
