Raising Your Vibe and How to Manifest Through Life’s Ups and Downs
In this episode, Yvonne shares some personal stories and practical strategies that are designed to help you to raise your vibe and keep it high. In particular, during difficult times, which is something we all experience at some stage. She covers the power of gratitude, recognizing signs from the universe. As well as how emotional and hormonal cycles impact your ability to carry on manifesting.
This episode is perfect for anyone seeking inspiration and actionable tips to reset and give their mindset and emotional baseline a boost.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
-
Your thoughts, feelings, and beliefs are already shaping your future reality—whether you realize it or not, you are always manifesting. By becoming aware and intentional, you can guide this process to create the reality you truly desire.
-
When life gets hard or you are grieving, use gratitude to help you to heal emotionally and reset.
-
Use the 3 simple gratefuls, Yvonne recommends. Set an alarm to make sure you do them.
-
Gratitude is essential for manifestation.
-
Start small: Keep track of small, positive or enjoyable moments throughout your day. Over time, your mood and outlook will greatly improve.
-
It’s okay to pause manifesting during periods of grief or emotional lows. At those times redirect your energy towards self-care and returning to your baseline.
-
Acknowledge and accommodate the fact that emotional and hormonal cycles, especially for women, can impact your ability to manifest. Be compassionate with yourself.
-
Let go of minor frustrations quickly. Instead, redirect that energy towards addressing the bigger issues in your life.
-
Learn to recognise and embrace the signs from the universe. Use them as encouragement on your journey.
BEST MOMENTS
“Gratitude is your superpower to getting you back.”
“You are not meant to be high vibe all the time. You are not able to manifest specific things in your life all the time.”
“There are certain times in your life that you just need to focus on yourself, on just being, on just surviving and getting through the day.”
“If you are low vibe, I just want you to choose your sign for whatever you are manifesting, right?”
“Do not write in your manifestation box when you are flat, when you are going through grief, when you are struggling, when your vibe is so low.”
“It is not the big, massive things in your life, it’s the little ones, and that will help you bring yourself back to baseline.”
“You are meant to feel all feelings, you are meant to be sad sometimes.”
“You are always manifesting. Remember that. If you are living, you are breathing, you are manifesting because manifestation is who you are.”
“Raising your vibe - it just takes little, little steps to reset.”

121. Negative vs Positive Thinking: What Actually Improves Your Mindset
16:19||Ep. 121This episode was inspired by a woman on my Manifest Challenge whose whole world fell apart. Two years ago she had the engagement ring, was trying for a baby and had the house plans. Then her partner ended it all. For two years she was stuck - grieving her past life and thinking that her chance at marriage and a family was over.She made a decision that she needed to move forward with her life and she joined my Manifest Challenge. However, when the Challenge started and she was trying to visualise her "soulmate" all the painful memories came back and she was frustrated. So I told her to use the 5,4,3,2,1 let it go trick...Two weeks after the Challenge, she messaged me to tell me that "trick" changed her life. That he family, friends and colleagues noticed a difference. She said it helped her just cut the thought. So, I wondered - what's better for your mental health - the ability to cut out negative thoughts or have more positive ones.Turns out, the real breakthrough comes from reducing negative thinking instead or more positive thoughts. My example with the story proves this.
Why Jealousy and Comparison Lower Your Vibration And How To Shift Out of It
22:35||Season 120In this episode, I talk honestly about jealousy and comparison, and how easily I found myself comparing my current body and life to a past version of me who felt fitter and stronger. I also noticed how often I was measuring myself against other people—and how quickly that pulled me into a low-vibration state.What I realized is that comparison usually means I’m living in an old story or in someone else’s story, instead of staying present with where I am now. When I do that, my energy scatters, my self-trust drops, and manifestation becomes harder because I’m focused on lack rather than alignment.In this episode, I share the shift that helped me step out of comparison and back into my own lane. I also offer three practical tips I use when I notice myself slipping into jealousy or self-judgment—tools that help me regulate my energy, reclaim my power, and return to my own timeline.In this episode, I talk about:Comparing myself to my past, fitter selfWhy comparison and jealousy are low-vibration frequenciesHow living in old stories keeps me stuckThe difference between my story and someone else’s storyWhat jealousy is actually trying to show meThree tips I use to stop comparing and shift my energy✨ Manifestation Challenge If you’re ready to stop looping in comparison and start consciously shifting your energy, I’ve created a Manifestation Challenge to help you reset your mindset, raise your frequency, and reconnect with your own story. It’s designed to support you in releasing old patterns and stepping back into intentional creation.JOIN HERE: https://pausepenny.com/product/manifestation-challenge-2026/
