The Energetics Behind Money + Maintaining a Mindset of Abundance

Money is always available to me. That is the affirmation that pops up on my phone every day at 5:55 pm. A constant reminder that contrary to popular belief, there is enough money for all of us to go around. Like many of you, I grew up in a household with a scarcity mindset. There was and never would be enough money. I carried this belief with me well into my adulthood and it is something that I still work through every day. A lack mindset is very much alive in our society. I see it through the eyes of a business owner when potential clients are offended by the cost of my offerings, as well as, through the eyes of a consumer when I complain about the price of something. The belief that if we spend money, we won’t ever get it back is keeping us from living in energetic alignment with abundance.

Money is energy and just like all other forms of energy, like attracts like. If we believe that there isn’t more money to be made, we will continue to live paycheck to paycheck. However, if we believe that utilizing our resources will invite in more resources, well… you know the drill. This is the Law of Attraction, my friends. If we believe that more money is available to us, we will naturally find ways to come into alignment with more money. Now this isn’t as easy as just spending money and telling yourself that more will just naturally appear in your bank account. No. First and foremost, we need to dismantle all of the negative beliefs we have around money. This takes some serious self-reflection, time, and practice, but overtime you will begin to label money as a friend rather than an enemy.

I want you to begin to think about all of the ways money has been there for you in the past. For example, money has allowed me to travel to places that little Bree never thought was possible. Then, think about why you are grateful for money. Grab your notes app or a piece of paper and write a gratitude list for money. I am grateful for money because… Now read over your list. See all of the ways in which you can appreciate money because contrary to popular belief, money is not bad; money is not lacking; and money is not dirty. Money is your friend. It is the tool we use to feed our families, warm our homes, and encounter new experiences. The more we view money in this way, the more abundance we will energetically welcome into our lives.

This is the secret of the 1% – maintaining a mindset of abundance. I’ve worked with clients who have come from similar backgrounds as my own and clients who grew up in wealthier households. The difference?  Most of my clients from wealthier backgrounds held the belief that there was always more money to be made. They did not fear spending money because they had faith that more money would come. This belief was ingrained in their mindset, just like my belief that there would never be enough money was ingrained in mine. And by holding true to this belief, they naturally continued to attract abundance into their lives. Just like trauma, our mindset around money will be passed down generation to generation. So the question is, what type of money mindset do you want to pass down to your children?

The Law of Attraction is funny in that it doesn’t just drop money into your bank account the moment you decide to heal your relationship with money. No. Instead, it wants you to move throughout the world with a sense of awareness so that when opportunities to enhance your income arise, you are there to grab hold of them. So yes, treating money with kindness and respect is step one of the process, but step two is aligning yourself with opportunities that welcome more income into your life. The beauty of it is, once you are aware, you will begin to notice opportunities to make money all around you. We live in a capitalistic society where money is always coming and going. It is truly up to you to go out there and claim it for yourself.

Most of us have anxiety around money because we don’t actually know how much is coming in versus how much is going out. A major key to maintaining a mindset of abundance and energetically aligning with money is being aware of how much money you actually have. I have found myself on many occasions nervous to open my banking app to see how much money I have in my checking account. That, my friends, comes from a scarcity mindset and total lack of awareness. For myself, I like to keep a Google Sheet where I track my money coming in and my money going out. I update this spreadsheet the last Sunday of each month as part of my monthly rituals. I’ve also had clients who use a financial journal or, if it fits into your expenses, hire a financial advisor. 

Money is energy and just like all other forms of energy, it is always available to us. It is up to you to live in such a way that attracts more abundance to you. Think of it like this, if you want to seek out a partner who doesn’t drink alcohol, you wouldn’t try to meet a potential partner out at a bar on Saturday nights. No. You would spend Sunday mornings at the farmers market, a fitness class, or an art gallery. The same idea goes for money. If you want more of it, you have to sweet talk money while simultaneously putting yourself out there to receive more of it. If you know someone that you believe could benefit from this, please feel free to send it over to them. I wish you a week of abundance ~
