Big Idea
The argument in one line.
Your mood and beliefs set your baseline emotional state, and until you can hold a higher one on your own, you can temporarily borrow it from nature by narrowing your focus and curating what you look at and listen to.
Who This Is For
Read if. Skip if.
READ IF YOU ARE…
You're stuck in anxiety, anger, or overwhelm and want a concrete physical practice, not another mindset lecture.
You're skeptical of law-of-attraction language but open to a version of it framed as focus and sensory input rather than magic.
You already run, walk, or hike and want a reason to do it with more intention.
You want a simple daily reset that doesn't require an app, a class, or equipment.
SKIP IF…
You're looking for data-backed neuroscience or citations — the science claims here are asserted, not sourced.
You have no access to any outdoor space at all — the practice assumes at least a tree, a field, or a river nearby.
TL;DR
The full version, fast.
The core claim: your emotional baseline (attitude, mood, what you believe is possible) is the cause and your life circumstances are the effect, so shifting that baseline is the highest-leverage move you can make. Trail running works as a shortcut because it forces single-point focus (don't fall), pulls in nature's own measurable frequency through sunlight and terrain, and lets curated music flood the senses instead of scattered phone notifications. She traces the practice back to a period of anxiety and family chaos where she stumbled into it by accident. The actionable version: if you can't run, walk; if you can't walk, sit by a tree. Borrowing the state repeatedly is what eventually lets you hold it without the trees.

Joins the viewer mid-run and names the idea she's about to unpack: raising your baseline frequency.
01:28 – 02:25
02 · The core idea: borrowing energy
States the thesis directly: nature lets you borrow an energy state you haven't cultivated within yourself yet, because your belief systems are the cause of your life, not the effect.
02:25 – 04:19
03 · Reframing the 'woo-woo' objection
Acknowledges the law-of-attraction framing sounds like eye-roll content, then cites a YouTube channel that measures and sonifies the frequency emitted by trees and fruit as evidence nature's vibration is measurable.
04:19 – 06:12
04 · How she found the practice
Traces the habit back to a period of severe anxiety, where trail running was stumbled into by accident, and contrasts it with being glued to her phone and constantly checking texts and social apps.
06:12 – 08:32
05 · Mechanism one: forced single-point focus
Explains that not falling on the trail demands total focus on foot placement, producing a meditative state without meditating, versus a finite attention span scattered across messages and work.
08:32 – 10:47
06 · Mechanism two: borrowed frequency, curated music, and her backstory
Frames sunlight and terrain as literal energy inputs, then explains how curating music tracks and shifts baseline state, tying it to a period of anger from a controlling ex, a mother with alcoholism and dementia, a schizophrenic best friend, and a high-pressure sales job.
10:47 – 13:08
07 · The payoff: reframing reality
Explains that a raised baseline shifts your perception of what's possible, compares it to talking a heartbroken best friend into seeing a breakup as a lucky escape, and describes her own mindset resetting mid-run.
13:08 – 16:05
08 · Making it accessible
Insists the practice isn't reserved for mountain trails: walk if you can't run, sit by a tree if you can't walk, and substitute a cornfield or river if that's what's available.
16:05 – 16:41
09 · Close and community pitch
Points viewers to her Magic Book Community and weekly gathering for more tools, then signs off mid-run.
Atomic Insights
Lines worth screenshotting.
Your energy state and belief systems are treated as the cause, and your life circumstances as the effect, not the other way around.
Nature can be treated as a source of energy you borrow before you've built the ability to generate that state on your own.
A YouTube channel that measures the frequency emitted by trees and fruit and converts it into audible sound is cited as evidence that nature's vibration is measurable, not just metaphorical.
The trail-running practice was discovered by accident during a period of high anxiety, not designed deliberately from the start.
Before adopting the practice, the creator describes being glued to her laptop and phone constantly checking texts, Instagram, and Facebook.
Trail running produces a meditative state without meditating, because avoiding a fall forces total, single-point focus on foot placement.
Humans have a finite amount of focus, and every text, comment, or notification pulls a piece of it in a different direction.
Sunlight and terrain are framed as literal, borrowable energy inputs, not just a pleasant backdrop.
Music choice is treated as a diagnostic: angry music suggests an angry baseline, sad music suggests a low baseline, and the shift toward upbeat music during a run tracks the baseline actually rising.
The anger period she describes was driven by a cluster of specific stressors: a controlling ex-boyfriend she worked with, a mother with alcoholism and dementia, a best friend with untreated schizophrenia, and a high-pressure, underfunded sales job.
Raising your baseline frequency is described as changing your perception of what's possible, which is the mechanism behind reframing a difficult situation.
The reframing move is compared to how you'd talk a heartbroken best friend into seeing a breakup as a lucky escape rather than a loss.
The practice is explicitly framed as not requiring wilderness: a cornfield, a river, or any accessible outdoor space is offered as a substitute for mountain trails.
If running isn't possible, the fallback offered is walking in nature, and if walking isn't possible, simply sitting by a tree.
Takeaway
You can borrow a better mood before you can build one.
WHAT TO LEARN
A higher emotional baseline can be temporarily borrowed from focus, nature, and curated sound long before you can generate it from willpower alone.
02The core idea: borrowing energy
Treat your emotional baseline as the cause of your circumstances, not the result of them, and look for direct ways to change it.
Nature can function as a source you borrow a state from before you've built the ability to generate that state yourself.
03Reframing the 'woo-woo' objection
A skeptical objection to a practice doesn't disqualify it, reframe the objection with a concrete, checkable claim before dismissing the practice.
Citing a specific, checkable source (a channel that sonifies measured plant frequency) does more to disarm skepticism than asserting the claim alone.
04How she found the practice
Effective coping practices are often stumbled into during a crisis rather than designed in advance, worth noticing what you already reach for under stress.
Constant phone and social-app checking was identified as the specific habit the outdoor practice was replacing.
05Mechanism one: forced single-point focus
A task that demands single-point focus, like not falling on a trail, can produce a meditative state more easily than sitting still and trying to meditate.
Every notification, text, and comment draws on a finite pool of attention, so removing inputs is itself a mood intervention.
06Mechanism two: borrowed frequency, curated music, and her backstory
Use your music or media choices as a diagnostic: angry or sad content playing on repeat is a signal about your current baseline, not just a preference.
Naming the specific stressors behind a hard period (a relationship, a family illness, a friend's mental health crisis, a demanding job) makes the later advice credible rather than generic.
07The payoff: reframing reality
Reframing someone else's painful situation is a skill people already use on their friends, the same move can be turned inward on your own circumstances.
A raised baseline is described as changing what you perceive to be possible, not just how you feel in the moment.
08Making it accessible
A practice doesn't need its ideal setting to work, a cornfield or a tree substitutes for a mountain trail when access is limited.
The lowest-effort version of any nature-based reset is still valid: if you can't run, walk, if you can't walk, sit.
Glossary
Terms worth knowing.
Baseline frequency
The creator's term for a person's default emotional and mental state, which she treats as the cause of their life circumstances rather than a byproduct of them.
Borrowing energy
Temporarily adopting a higher emotional state by immersing yourself in an external source, such as nature, focus, or music, before you're able to generate that state internally on your own.
“We are the cause. Our energy state is the cause. Our belief systems are the cause and the effect is the life that surrounds us.”

So I'm halfway through my run. And I wanted to bring you with me here because for some of us, this place isn't as accessible as it is to others.
But when we're talking about how to raise one's baseline frequency, which is effectively how to change our belief systems, our attitude, our mood, and stop like basically overthinking on negative things and elevate those things this is a place that i come to do just that and actually years ago before i had really understood anything about like frequencies and understood you know the mapping of the brain and neuroscience and stuff like that neuroplasticity i just found myself coming to the trees in the mountains where i lived in colorado and trail running which is what i'm doing now and i didn't know it at the time but it was probably one of the biggest life hacks that i could have ever implemented for myself that actually shifted the trajectory of my life and so that's why i'm bringing you here with me because i think that there i mean you know i'm out here living life just like everybody else I've managed to create a really beautiful life for myself from a place of prior to this really feeling like I had no control over my life or like kind of what came to me.
But we have what's available to us in nature as a way to almost borrow an energy state that we haven't yet cultivated within ourselves.
And the value of that is so big because really, as so many people know, we are the cause. Our energy state is the cause. Our belief systems are the cause and the effect is the life that surrounds us.
And honestly, when I say these things, I also like hear myself sometimes and I'm like, God, I sound like one of those people that's on YouTube. That's just like, you know, like. i don't know there's a sort of like annoying element to it of like oh god law of attraction and like it's woo woo and like new age stuff so i want to kind of reframe this a little bit if you're like me and you think when you hear people talking about that constantly it's a little bit of an eye roll thing the truth is that nature has its own frequency to it it's been measured they there's this like one youtube channel camera is called the moment but they measure the sounds of the trees and of different fruits well they measure the frequency and they turn it into sounds and it's incredible you see you can hear it's like a steady like that's emanating from the ground from the trees and their roots or from the fruits on the trees because they plug in these little measurement things in there
so that we can hear it and translate the vibration into sound. So right there, we have fact in science, in our perceptive reality that vibrations in general are real, but that nature's vibrations are real. I'm going to attach the link to that video or that YouTube channel below so you can kind of see what I'm talking about.
When we kind of like accept the fact, when I accept the fact, that that stuff is real it takes a little bit of the woo -woo -ness away from kind of the conversation about frequencies and you know energy and all that and law of attraction and you create your own reality and all that because we know for a fact that our surroundings are functioning off of frequencies atoms are functioning off of atoms are vibrating at a frequency all atoms are And so what I did at the very beginning when I was real anxious in life and I was down real bad and couldn't figure out what to do with myself, the first place I went by accident was nature and trail running here in the trees.
What happened over time was that frequency, there's like a steadiness to the trees. and to the nature around us right that has a constant flowing energy to it that has been measured we turn it into sound so that we can perceive of it and i can i basically borrow that when i'm in nature there's a thing that you can feel when you're here i don't know how to describe it native americans of course thrived in nature as in many you know other cultures but there's a symbiotic kind of like relationship going on here that I think for me before I started going in nature I was glued to my laptop 24 7 and constantly checking my text messages 24 7 and my Instagram and my Facebook and my uh I don't know whatever else I had at the time Snapchat or something we have so many inputs of different like, channels of energy.
And that's even a woo -woo way of saying it. We have so many inputs of just distractions that really do take our focus. Whether they're good or bad, it doesn't matter.
They just take our focus. Every text message takes your thoughts into that conversation. Every comment makes you think about something to do with that topic, right?
When I started coming into the trees and trail running, what happens is you kind of get into this like meditative state, even though you're not meditating because your focus is dead set on one thing and that is not falling. It is truly like, like this is the trail ahead of me. It's like, I have to make sure that I'm running and finding my feet placement.
So instead of my focus being scattered all over my messages and my texts and my phone calls and my work and my computer and all the different elements that like we only have a finite amount of focus, right? So rather than dispersing all of my focus across all those places, suddenly I found that my focus was in one direction.
And for me, it was actually even easier than meditating, like when you actually close your eyes and all that, because I was focusing on something. But here's the other element about trail running or being in nature that's really powerful. You're now borrowing the frequencies of nature around you.
Like we know that sunlight is good for us to a certain degree. We need sunlight. So this sunlight that I'm getting is feeding me.
We need to be around nature. We were born to be around nature. And you'll know it when you're in it.
You can feel it. it's not like i'm making this up you get in it for a little bit and you can sense when you're really in it it's like a sort of a quiet but you can't you can't really it's not the same when you're seeing it through a video like this it's so much greater when you're in it You can hear it.
You can feel it. So we borrow those things when our energy state is lower. And then the thing that's also like the third thing on top of this that's really powerful is what we put in our ears is so impactful.
So what I've been doing today, but what I started off doing years ago when I was down bad was listening to music that gave me, I don't know, it was like a sense of power. So I used to be really angry. Um, I was really angry about circumstances in my life.
My ex -boyfriend and I worked together. I felt ignored. My mom was an alcoholic and basically, uh, you know, devolving with dementia.
And I didn't know at the time, but my best friend since I was little was like schizophrenic and was like sabotaging my friend groups. So I had like a lot of weird drama around me. I didn't really understand.
um and i'm not blaming anybody i'm not here to play victim it's just what it was and so i had anger plus i was like a sales director so i had a lot of energy that i had to force into bringing in money from a very for a very underfunded startup so i would go into the mountains and i would channel that anger into my energy on the trail and the music I was listening to was very indicative of where I was at emotionally.
It was heavy, angry music. So if you're curious about where you are in terms of your baseline frequency, pay attention to the type of music you select. Is the music like evoking anger from you?
Do you think thoughts of revenge when you're listening to them? Are you listening to sad songs about heartbreak and breakup and unrequited love and things like that? And are you feeling sadness for it?
That's maybe a sad, lonely, emotional state. Or maybe you're like out here where it's where you eventually get when you're running in a nature long enough, you eventually rise to this emotional state. back to baseline frequency your baseline frequency your emotional state your thoughts your attitude literally while running in nature starts raising and you start to put on music that's like wow this is fun and i've caught myself this is so stupid but i've literally caught myself like screaming out loud like cheering while I'm running with my headphones in jumping from rock to rock to rock because I'm having like the best time having like the best time just out here in nature and that's what I know I'm really like at a place of um hi where I'm at a really good place of trying to or a feeling I guess on a higher baseline frequency.
And what that means is your thoughts shift. So the value of raising our baseline frequency is that our perception of reality actually shifts and our perception of what's possible for us shifts. And really what it helps us do is reframe reality.
Reframing, I'm going to make another video on this, but reframing is I think one of the most valuable tools we could ever use. It's reframing our perception of reality. it's kind of like what you do for your best friend like you know when she like breaks up with a guy and he was a piece of shit and you knew it and she can't see it but you're like look you dodged a bullet you know or hey there's other great guys out there you're a million bucks you're like beautiful this and that you're trying to help her reframe her reality in the situation in a way that she can't yet see when you when we when I trail run I'm intentionally shifting my baseline frequency to kind of unlock my mindset in a way that will automatically reframe my reality in a way that's far more advantageous and actually truthful.
And what I mean by truthful is we're meant to achieve awesome things in this life. We're meant to have wonderful, wonderful friendships and, you know, deep friendships. We're meant to, you know, thrive and strive for things that make us happy and we're meant to make music and listen to it we're meant to laugh with our friends and you know feel grateful and appreciative for the things that we have i have been there where i have been in a place where it's very hard to do that and so what i'm trying to i guess express in this in this video is if you're there which i was earlier today i was having like a moment i was like you know what go on a run go on a run go on a run put yourself in nature and it's so funny because here i am now my mindset's totally reframed i've shifted my baseline frequency up and i'm making a video about this that i hope you know can shed some light on this tool on this technique so if you're struggling with life or you're you're overwhelmed or you're angry or you're sad or you're whatever the thing is or even if you're really happy i mean this whole thing
there's there's like levels to this right what i have found to be one of the best ways to continue to raise our baseline frequency to shift out of a lower state to shift into a state of creation and to start really getting the mind to unlock is through trail running in nature and if you can't run it's okay get in nature and walk if you can't walk Get around a tree and sit by it.
Be there. Borrow that energy. I know it sounds wooey.
Trust me. I am so not... I think a lot of people would have put me in a category of spiritual.
And sure, I am. But this is also just kind of logical stuff. It sounds wooey because we in our society have made it sound wooey.
But this is very normal shit. Nature works. Nature is healing.
It's helpful. That's why people pay... you know as much as they do to live in california because the weather's great and then the nature's great that's why colorado is so adored because people want to be in it there's a natural calling to it it's because it's it's helpful to us so i got off my phone i got off the ding internet i put my phone on silent i got off of instagram and all the inputs all of those inputs that take our finite amount of focus and pull it in multiple directions by trail running and doing this it points it in one single direction with the music and you flood yourself with dopamine you flood yourself with beautiful things that you're looking at i mean come on right you flood yourself with beautiful music and as a result your mind will start to flood itself with the thoughts that are true to your soul and who you are.
Thoughts of creation and love of appreciation of whatever it is, excitement about this thing. It may not be immediate, but it will shift over time if you stick at it and stick with it. So, okay.
I just wanted to bring you out here because this is such an amazing place. And, um, you know, I'm in the middle of Texas. I'm not in Colorado.
So you probably have a spot like this maybe it's a cornfield that's good enough right like go to a river go somewhere i recommend trail running but if you know like i said do something else if that works for you but yeah borrow that that frequency it's not woo woo it's just logical and um if you want to learn a little bit more about how to raise your baseline frequency how to effectively create the reality that you want in logical practical ways if you're in a place that you want to continue to grow where you need to get up higher I promise you I've been at every level and every stage of all of the emotional places or damn near and I apply my tools to those that want to learn a little bit more so you can join the magic book community which is a link below.
I do a gathering every Monday. We walk through not only other tools of how to do this, but also what I use in terms of a writing technique that's a form of hypnosis and a form of energy shifting to do what I keep saying, which is raise your baseline frequency. And when we raise our baseline frequency, life just follows.
And it can be better than you could possibly imagine. Okay. That is all.
I'm gonna keep running. I'll see you on the next one. See ya.

Three Ways Nature Raises Your Baseline
Single-point focus (don't fall)
Borrowed frequency (sunlight and terrain)
Curated audio input (music as a mood diagnostic and lever)
The three mechanisms she credits for why trail running shifts emotional state: it forces total attention onto one physical task, it exposes you to nature's own measurable vibration, and it lets you flood your senses with chosen music instead of scattered notifications.
