Day 12 of 30 Days to a Higher Vibe — Do Your Inner Work


Day 12 — Do Your Inner Work: The Real Path to a Higher Vibration

One of the biggest misunderstandings about raising your vibration is the idea that it means “just think positive.”It doesn’t.


True high-vibe living is not spiritual bypass. It’s emotional honesty. It’s healing. It’s upgrading the subconscious patterns that were built during times when you had no power and no choice.

Your vibration will never rise sustainably if your inner world is carrying fear, trauma, hypervigilance, or old survival strategies.


Why Your Past Still Affects Your Vibration

As a hypnotherapist, I’ve seen this again and again:

The subconscious mind does not understand time.


If you grew up in a home that was:

  • chaotic

  • unpredictable

  • unsafe

  • emotionally unstable

  • inconsistent

…your subconscious learned to keep you alive.


It created coping mechanisms like:

  • people-pleasing (“If they’re happy, I’m safe.”)

  • perfectionism (“If I don’t make mistakes, I won’t get attacked.”)

  • hypervigilance (“I need to watch for danger.”)

  • shrinking your presence (“If I’m invisible, I won’t be harmed.”)

These were intelligent responses when you were young.


But now?You’re in a completely different environment…and your subconscious is still running the old code.

This is why you can feel:

  • anxious for “no reason”

  • scared of upsetting people

  • exhausted from scanning for danger

  • overwhelmed by small tasks

  • guilty for resting

  • afraid of being seen

It’s not weakness. It’s outdated programming.


Why Inner Work Raises Your Vibration

Your vibration is not “good vibes only.”

Your vibration is the sum of your emotional patterns, beliefs, and nervous system state.

When your subconscious is carrying trauma, it’s impossible to stay consistently high-vibe. Your system will keep pulling you back into tension, fear, and old patterns.


Inner work raises your vibration because it:

  • releases old fear

  • creates emotional spaciousness

  • softens your nervous system

  • updates outdated beliefs

  • builds internal safety

  • gives you new coping abilities

  • opens you to receiving

Emotionally lighter = vibrationally higher.



Ways to Do Your Inner Work

You don’t need to start big.Start anywhere.

🌀 Hypnotherapy

This is my favorite (obviously), because it speaks directly to the part of the mind that runs 90–95% of your behavior.It updates old beliefs and shifts lifelong patterns.

🌀 Therapy

Talk therapy, EMDR, CBT — all valuable pathways into understanding and integrating your past.

🌀 Journaling

A powerful, accessible way to uncover patterns, beliefs, triggers, and hidden emotions.

🌀 Meditation & Introspection

There are endless videos, guided meditations, and practices to help you regulate your nervous system and explore your inner world.

🌀 Self-reflection tools

Prompts, books, worksheets, intention setting, rituals, and your 30-day series are all part of inner work.

Every piece helps your subconscious feel safer — and safe energy is high energy.



Raising your vibration isn’t pretending you’re fine. It’s healing what hurts. It’s updating old subconscious instructions.It’s tending to the parts of you that are still carrying fear from the past.

When you do the inner work, high-vibe living becomes easy.Your energy rises naturally because there's nothing weighing it down.

Your past shaped you — but it doesn’t get to define your vibration.
