I used to love the whole idea of going with the flow. No attachment. Just let things unfold as and when they will.
When an inspirational thought came to me, I would go with it and still today, most of my writing comes through that way.
I live an intuitively guided life and in meditation and dream state is where most of my learning comes from.
Back then, I literally believed that the Law of Attraction would just magically drop clients into my lap. I actually didn’t even believe in promoting my business that much because I thought it would all just happen automatically.
It sounds rather foolish to say that now, but I wasn’t the only one to think that way and many people still do, even today!
I completely believed the “if you build it, they will come” message from the movie “Field of Dreams”, but in my experience of being just a little bit woo, this is a really bad business model to adopt.
In fact it’s not a business model at all and chances are that’s precisely why we spiritual entrepreneurs struggle to achieve the level of success that we’d like.
It’s a classic misunderstanding of how the Law of Attraction really works but that’s what has kept many of us spiritual folk in a kind of holding pattern of not really getting what we want yet still believing in our heart that it works.
We know it’s truth. We know it works. But we can’t work out why it’s not working for us!
Personally I think this misunderstanding can also allude to a really juicy “opt out of too much work” clause and I’ve come to see that it’s a bit of a catch if you don’t understand the big picture of this Universal Law that you are consciously trying to evoke into your life.
The Law of Attraction is always working actually, and there’s never a time when it isn’t so we never really need to evoke it. But what you might not realise is that it also repels. It’s a magnetic force. So just like a magnet, it either attracts or repels.
If you’re holding energy blocks or limiting beliefs around the thing that you’re trying to attract, then you’ll actually be repelling what you want and you won’t even realise.
I waited for the Law of Attraction to work in my favour for years before I finally acknowledged my money fears and did some work around my money mindset.
Why did it take me so long?
Honestly, because the mindset part is often missing from this conversation and I didn’t know anything about it.
It was only when I became a hypnotherapist that I began to understand the power of the mind to create our life.
Mindset work and in particular money mindset, has now become one of my favourite subjects, and I’ve discovered that many of us have money blocks.
Sometimes we have HUGE money blocks that we don’t even know exist.
To some of us money is a dirty word and in some spiritual groups people recoil if the word is uttered. The person that dares to mention it is looked upon pityingly and often judged as being 3D or unconscious.
But the fact remains. We all need money to live on this planet and by not addressing these money blocks, we are seriously limiting our ability to be abundant in all aspects of life.
It’s not all about money, but let’s be honest, money buys the things, and the experiences, that we all like to have.
It’s not easy to live without money… even if we believe we shouldn’t need it in a 5D world.
Whilst, the world is definitely evolving, we haven’t got to that point yet!
If the word “money” makes you feel uncomfortable in any way, then that’s a sign that you have a money block.
If you find yourself getting defensive on the subject, you have money blocks;
and if you judge the people who have it when you don’t, then that’s more than likely precisely why you don’t have it!
Money is Energy.
Does the word “energy” make you feel uncomfortable? Probably not.
I’ve seen that because of slightly skewed spiritual beliefs and money blocks in general, many of us don’t value our worth and we don’t charge our worth for the work that we do. When we do this, we create an energy imbalance that can lead to all kinds of negative outcomes.
This realisation has made the biggest impact in my life and business and everything changed for me once I started work on my own blocks and issues around money and self-worth.
We create with our thoughts and we create with our words. And the energy that we place around those words is the energy that we send out into the world. It’s the Law of Attraction that brings it right back. So if we’re scared to charge more because we think we won’t have any clients then that’s exactly what we’ll get back!
Even our intention to be of service can get distorted when we’re holding on to these money blocks, because money is energy and we can’t be in flow at our highest level, when we’re blocked.
If you’ve had a moment of realisation through reading this and it speaks to you, then book a free Discovery Call with me and let’s talk about how I can help you shift your mindset around money and abundance. It’s what I love to do, and it would be an honour to work with you.
From my heart to yours,
