If you’re wondering why your reality looks the way it does, start by examining your language, not just the words you speak to others, but the dialogue you hold within yourself. The words you choose shape the energy you bring into your world. 

How do you speak to yourself? How do you speak to others? Your language, your words, your symbols, form the foundation of your reality. Every word you think and speak represents an agreement with yourself and those around you, reinforcing beliefs and shaping your perception. When these beliefs become embedded in your subconscious, they influence the way you move through life and what you attract in return. Your reality is a reflection of your self-talk and the way you communicate with the world. Choose your words wisely, for they are the forgotten architects of your experience.

The Science

Words are created through our breath. We physically push words through our breath and swirl them around in our minds. Words are living symbols made up of sound waves, which are vibrations that travel through the air. Different words produce different frequencies, these frequencies can impact both the speaker and the listener on a subconscious level. 

​

Did you know words can affect the molecular structure of water? In Dr. Masaru Emoto’s fascinating “water experiments”, when water was exposed to words like “love” and “gratitude,” it formed beautiful, symmetrical crystalline structures. When water was exposed to words like “hate” and “fear,” the structures became chaotic and distorted. Since the human body is 60% water, his findings suggest that words can impact us at a cellular level. Studies in quantum physics and sound healing also show us the vibrational energy words carry can either elevate or contract our consciousness. The more I dive into the “whys” of the spiritual world, the more I realize how much science is, in fact, divinely interconnected with spirituality.

The Breath 

It’s so easy to forget our most powerful force, the breath. We don’t often think about it, yet it fuels everything, including the words we speak. Without breath, there is no creation. When we breathe with awareness, our words carry more intention. Breath isn’t just something that keeps us alive, it’s the foundation of how we communicate. Breath is so sacred, so magical. It can affect the energy force of our words. Shallow breathing puts our bodies into stress mode, making our words reactive, rushed, or even sharp. Deep, intentional breathing does the opposite. It soothes the nervous system, grounds us, and allows our speech to come from a place of presence and truth. 

​

Think about the last time you took a deep breath before speaking, how different did that feel? When we slow down and sync our breath with our words, we create alignment. The more we honor our breath, the more powerful and intentional our voice becomes. Prana is the sacred life force energy, the energy that flows through us with every breath, sustaining not just our bodies but our essence. When we speak with awareness of Prana, our words become more than just sounds; they become vessels of creation, carrying the power to transform.

​

The Power of Self-Talk 

The words we silently whisper to ourselves shape the foundation of our beliefs, actions, and lived experiences. Our inner dialogue serves as the script for how we perceive the world and our place within it. The moment we become aware of this narrative, we unlock the power to reshape it, aligning our reality with truth rather than unconscious conditioning. 

​

Shadow work invites us to examine the roots of our self-talk, embracing every part of our story with love rather than resistance. By doing so, we gain the ability to reframe that inner voice, transforming limiting narratives into ones that empower and expand us. This isn’t about forced positivity, it’s about taking charge of your mind, cultivating awareness, truth, and self-compassion in the way we speak to ourselves. 

​

The spiritual world often emphasizes depth, but humor is just as powerful. Adding lightness to our inner dialogue can be incredibly comforting. When I make mistakes or face challenges, I use laughter to cushion darker thoughts, reminding my mind and body that life is not that serious. A playful perspective keeps us from getting stuck in self-judgment, allowing us to move through life with more grace, ease, and joy. Harnessing our self-talk in a positive way can create an inner oasis that we always have access to. 

​

Casting Spells 

The power of communication runs deeper than we realize, we are casting spells with our words at all times. Every word we release into the Universe shapes not only our own subconscious but also the subconscious of those who receive it. When we speak with light, we uplift. When we speak with darkness, we diminish. 

​

Gossip is one of the clearest reflections of this truth. It mirrors our inner dialogue, reinforcing our self-perception in ways that can feel gratifying, even when the words we speak may not be rooted in truth. But as Bob Hurd says, when we engage in "godsip", speaking positively about others, we elevate them and, in turn, elevate ourselves. The willingness to praise and uplift through intentional language expands not just those around us but on our own inner world, allowing us to embody the very light we choose to share. 

 

A final note... 

As I dive deeper into this topic, I’ve come to understand the true power of my words. Words are living, breathing energies that shape and mold our reality. Words are both a profound responsibility and a sacred privilege gifted to us from God, or the Universe, or whatever higher power speaks to you. 

​

When we speak with intention, truth, and awareness, we can literally create the world we desire. This is why manifestation through language is so potent. This is why affirmations and mantras are so magical and powerful. It’s not “woo-woo”, it’s science. By speaking with intention, we create new neural pathways that align us with the frequencies of our deepest desires. 

​

So, as we move forward, let’s ask ourselves: Are the words I speak today the ones you want to manifest tomorrow? Be mindful of your thoughts, and use affirmations and mantras as tools to realign with your truth. Words are the magic that makes those wishes come to life, and with every breath, you have the power to shape your reality.
