Lalah Delia’s zeitgeisty new book is a collection of prompts and poems to elevate our vibration — and we are here for it. Lalah is a spiritual writer, spiritual creative, wellness educator and certified spiritual practitioner on a mission to fire up our vibrational energy so we can all just live our best lives, already.
Turning the pages of this beautiful book feels like taking part in a sacred offering. Lalah’s words at once feel vast and deeply intimate—and this is by design. Lalah’s hope is to lift the collective vibration by reaching each and every one of us. One by one. Page by page. Vibrate Higher Daily invites us to tune in and turn on our highest energy vibes. We are thrilled to debut the first On My Bookshelf of the new decade with Lalah Delia. Take a peek at what inspires the modern thought-leader who is inspiring us…
“There is another way of being in the world.
There is a better way to exist, rise, move beyond and take our power back.”
– Lalah Delia, Vibrate Higher Daily

What you hope your book accomplishes for others: My intention with my book is for it to support individuals and communities in vibrating higher daily and living their power. Navigating the world through vibration and your personal higher-power changes the game—it heals, it renews and it enhances our overall quality of life, work, environment and being in the world. It sets us free to be our highest potential selves and world.
Do you recommend journaling or anything else after reading your book? No, but I do recommend reading empowering parts of your favorites books or reciting affirmations right before you go to sleep and shortly after you wake up. The subconscious mind is the most re-programmable at these times, which supports lasting change and impact.
Favorite reading resource? Do tell: Zen Mountain Monastery Prison Project, San Francisco Zen Center, and The Buddhist Association of the United States Prison Program all donate mindfulness books to incarcerated individuals seeking to learn and dive deeper into zen and mindfulness practice.
