It’s in and around this time each year that I really start itching to spring clean our home. And while that typically means flipping mattresses and hosing down screens (so satisfying!) this year I’m looking to step my game up even further. As I continue on my healing journey, I’ve found myself deep diving into all things energetic, and what I’ve started to notice has been illuminating, to say the least. There is still so much for me to learn on this front, but so far I’ve happily landed in a place that combines quantum physics, feng shui, and spirituality. It’s something I’d love to expand on even further if it’s of interest but for now if you, too, want to increase your rooms vibration, here are a few great ways to do it…
It’s no secret that objects hold energies. Each one of us, and every thing that we surround ourselves with is, in fact, energy – it’s a scientific truth. But I recently learned that not every object holds the same energetic frequency. Research has shown that natural materials vibrate at a higher frequency than those of their synthetic counterparts, and by a significant margin too. Since making this discovery I’ve been making more conscious purchases for everything that I bring into mine (and my clients’) homes. From my new cotton tea towel, to the alpaca sweater that I’ve yet to remove, it’s a small change that I’m convinced will have a long lasting impact.
This one was devastating for me as I love scented candles. But not only are synthetic fragrances endocrine disruptors (meaning they can wreak havoc on your hormones), but they also emit scary chemicals that are definitely not filled with “good vibes only”. Instead, switch them out for soy based candles that are scented with natural oils and have cotton wicks (my husband bought this one for me for Christmas and it’s my favourite find so far).
Not only do plants look great by instantly adding life to a space, but said life also helps increase your rooms vibration by a significant amount. The fact that they help filter the air certainly doesn’t hurt. It’s no secret that I love when form meets function, and this is a perfect example. (Note: I have read that faux plants don’t increase your rooms vibration quite as much as the real deal but they do help. Dried flowers on the other hand are rumoured to have the opposite effect).
Think of it this way: that vase that you’re holding onto only because your great aunt gifted it to you is taking up your energy. It’s something you have to store, something you have to clean, it’s something that takes up your valuable time in minuscule increments. Lovingly donating (or selling!) it not only frees up that energy, but it also creates space for bigger better things to arrive. Walking into a room filled with things that truly bring you joy is the greatest way to increase your rooms vibration.
I was gifted some palo santo a few years back and it quickly became a regular tool in my arsenal. It’s not something I would have originally thought to pick up for myself, but cleansing our home with a smoke offering is a practice that I’ve come to cherish. I often use it before I meditate and there is a marked difference when I’m through. Something I’ve recently learned, however, is that you must leave a door or window open during the process so that the negative energies have a place to escape.
There you have it. Five easy ways to increase your rooms vibration. I’m curious, is this something that you do as well? Do you have any other practices you use? It’s something I’m becoming increasingly more interested in and I’d love to hear about it.

If you are looking for an alternative to typical candles, I’d suggest looking at beeswax-based instead of soy. Soy candles may be even worse for your health. Beeswax makes for a much cleaner burning candle.
Amazing, thanks for letting me know! Still learning over here :)
It’s nice of your advice!
The part about decluttering is so true! Spaces always feel so refreshed when you have less clutter.
Well+Good had an interesting piece on how they no longer encourage non-Native people to burn sage. Although it’s become popular in wellness communities, doing so is harmful to Native communities.

Thank you for bringing this to my attention! I will take a closer look and re-evaluate for sure
Loved this post! I didn’t realize the bad effects of synthetic frangrances, so thank you for opening my eyes to that.. I will look for soy based candles with natural oils! I have always been attracted to interiors that bring in natural materials versus the ones with lots of synthetic fabrics and ‘faux’ everything, and it makes sense that they vibrate at a higher frequency. Please keep going with your posts on feng shui, physics and spirituality- would love to read more on that!
Brilliant tips, thank you for sharing! I never thought about objects having energy before, but of course it makes total sense as soon as you say it. I’m definitely on board with all-natural candles too, even if they are a bit more expensive. You can always make your own!
New to your blog but love this direction. Am totally into the natural, coupled with the energy and spiritual. Had not heard of negative sage burning with regards to native american culture. May want to check that source.
My ways to increase the vibration of the room are: plants, handicrafts, mandalas, fragrance sticks, a fireplace, an organized space and a smile on my face :)
Love this! Thanks for sharing!
