Reframing: The Spiritual Art of Mindful Language. There is a lot of information out there regarding the power and energy of our words. Nikola Tesla famously stated, "If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency, and vibration". All of which is needed to form our words, tone and physical delivery of speech.
Enter; Cymatics …the science of visible sound and vibration. At its core, cymatics explores how sound waves and vibrations create discernible patterns in various mediums, like powders, liquids, or membranes, usually on a metal plate that translates into a geometric pattern. Speech has also been used in some cymatic studies. By directing spoken sounds onto a cymatic plate or a water surface, the vibrations of speech can directly influence the medium, creating fleeting but recognisable patterns.
Now, remembering that the human body is made up of around 70% water, this informs us, that how we talk to ourselves and others, actually has a physical impact at a cellular level. Japanese scientist; Dr. Masaru Emoto's research also proved this in his famous test tube water experiment; Emoto's experiments also indicated that positive stimuli (like classical music, words such as "Thank-you" and "Love & Appreciation") produced beautiful, symmetrical crystals, whereas negative stimuli (like heavy metal music or negative phrases) resulted in fragmented and chaotic patterns.
If we consider that chanting, prayer, mantras and Spell-work , all require a particular energy, frequency and vibration to infuse the desired result .Then we must also consider that ‘Words can harm or words can heal’. Ever noticed how a simple shift in words can totally change the vibe of a conversation? It's pretty wild when you think about it. The spoken language isn't just about conveying information; it's a powerful tool that shapes our reality, both individually and collectively. From a spiritual perspective, paying attention to how we frame our questions and answers, can act like a tuning fork into a subtle shift that can transform stress into growth.
I always take note when watching social media and hearing phrases like; ‘nobody is coming to save you’ or ‘You will NEVER achieve what you want if you ….(fill in the gaps) ’, which is then quickly followed up with a Segway into promoting a membership or other.Nothing wrong with that, In the right context. I think quite often these phrases could be reframed into a much more empowering use of language, and still get the message across. You could, for example replace the following statement with a reframed version, or it may be better to include it as a whole statement:
Original Statement: "The universe does not reward dependency; it never has and it never will."
Reframed: "The universe encourages and supports your journey of self-discovery and empowerment, reflecting the strength and independence you cultivate."
One of the coolest benefits of mindful language is the clarity and connection it brings. When we choose our words with intention, we foster deeper understanding and build stronger relationships. It's about getting real with ourselves and others. Beyond that, reframing our inner dialogue can be a game-changer for our peace of mind. Instead of asking Why is this happening to me? try reframing it to: What can I learn from this experience?
This is where it gets really interesting: from a spiritual standpoint, our words can actually help or hinder our desired manifestations, through our intentions. It’s not magic, but rather the consistent energy and focus we put into our language that helps align us with our desires. When we speak and think positively, we are essentially sending out a clear signal to the universe (or whatever you believe in!). It’s about taking ownership of our communication and recognising its creative power. So, next time you’re about to speak or type, take a tiny pause. Choose your words intentionally, focus on positive or at least a neutral framing, and watch how your world, and the world around you, begins to transform. It’s a simple practice with profound spiritual and practical benefits.
I take particular care in; not only how I frame questions asked in a Clairvoyant reading with me, but also how I convey the answers. I cover this in depth in my E book; Third I Tips for Readers and Receivers.
