Money is good, right? As so many abundance teachers will tell you, money is just energy, and there’s plenty of it, and you just need to welcome the energy.
And knowing what is dangerous and what is safe should be easy, right? A charging tiger is dangerous, and group of peacefully grazing gazelles is safe.
Truth is, though, our poor brains can get very, very confused about what is dangerous and what is safe. All kinds of perfectly good things (like money) can stimulate our fight/flight response, and make it very, very hard for us to have sufficient or abundant financial means.
If you are having trouble with money, I can almost guarantee that your brain is not entirely sure it’s safe for you. And then, there’s absolutely no chance money will flow. None.
A bunch of things go into feeling safe with money:
- A relationship of respect and inclusion of your family’s history with money.
- The awareness that money is just money: it’s not love, it’s not safety, it’s not loyalty, it’s only money.
- A good feeling about your place in the world, that you belong with or without money.
Now, at a conscious level, we can all be on board with those beliefs. That is not a problem. But if we’re stuck about money, then probably, unconsciously, we don’t really believe one or more of these claims.
You can’t fix these with simple affirmations or upbeat, encouraging workshops. They can help, but they rarely get to the root of the unconscious conviction that money isn’t safe.
What does work? Elegant change work that works directly, in a friendly way, with your unconscious, so that it can begin to experience money as safe.
Join me on May 25th for a workshop where we will work with your brain and your ancestors, so that you can, really, re-choose what you want with money, with full dignity, and get support from your brain and your ancestors to have what you want.
