You can take a moment right now and feel your energy about money.
If you are already resisting this idea—notice that. I can tell you right
now you are just feeling negative energy—and you don’t want that
to be the case with money. In fact, we tend to feel negative energy
with money when we are
conditioned to hear the word
“money” and think of “lack of
money” instead.
When I would list out my debts with a hope that I could make things
different, by the end of the process, I was so
discouraged and depressed—it sucked any
joy I’d had right out of me. Sound familiar?
“What’s wrong with me? They are just numbers, why can’t I get this
right?”
“I must make bad decisions. The worst part is I don’t even know
when I’m making them! I honestly try to make good decisions, and
be diligent, yet I keep screwing up—what is my problem?”
I’d been doing a lot of asking about the financial situation—and what
in the world I was doing wrong. I was working hard to earn more
money, I was asking all the time for more money, particularly to pay
off my debt (wasn’t that a worthy “universe” cause?).
When I first learned EFT, I was in a pretty bad space with some
HEAVY negative energy. But now I can see that even that was a
blessing, because even though I was FEELING that energy so
strongly—I could also FEEL when it was leaving, as I went through the
tapping process of EFT.
Now, I’m most often in a good space, but when I notice something I
need to clear—like taking my money beliefs personally—I do EFT. I
don’t usually feel the shift as strongly, because I’m already feeling
pretty good. But I do notice energy release symptoms—often just
yawning or sighs—feelings of relief. Sometimes there’s still an issue I
get emotional about and shed tears as well. But either way, the
energy gets to move and shift. And once I’m free from that negative
energy, it’s easier for me to create effectively. It changes my general
vibration as well, so the signal I’m sending to the Universe is more
closely related to peace and contentment, rather than dissatisfaction
and frustration.
This vibrational energy sends a signal out to the Universe, and the
Universe responds in like manner—through the Law of Attraction--
shaping our life experiences.
I love math. That’s one of the main reasons it was hard for me to feel
like an artist—because I thought of myself more as a math-person!
But what I loved about math was that you could count on it. No pun
intended. Math was reliable. This plus this equals this—that’s the
rule, that’s the law, every time, no exceptions. Think about that for
just a moment. Isn’t it nice to have SOMETHING to rely on in our
ever changing world? It is indeed, and it really helps to simplify our
life experience.
My next great discovery about money and the Law of Attraction was
this. I now understood that to create wealth, I needed to focus on
wealth—I needed to FEEL wealthy. So I asked myself, “What does
wealthy feel like?” ………..and there was a long pause. I could almost
hear the crickets chirping in the silence that followed…….And then it
dawned on me—the fact that it was taking me so long to conjure up
ANY feeling of wealth, or to even have an inkling of what that FELT
like—was THE PROBLEM! And then the joy of that revelation hit
me—NO WONDER! No wonder I’d had such a hard time creating
wealth! Watch what happens when I think of debt and
And I’d continue to explore. This was a good thing to do, and the
way to find out what it does feel like—by asking. Still, notice the
difference. Debt was so much a part of me that it was subconscious.
My thinking mind had to do nothing—there it was, instantly.
“But it also feels like security. It feels like knowing there is plenty and
that everything is working out. Hmmm…wow…I’m noticing an
extreme lack of worry here, in this wealthy feeling. I get to choose
what I really want instead of substituting what I truly want for
something cheaper. I’m acting from my true desire, rather than
trying to shrink my desires into what I can afford. I get to choose.
Wow—and I feel really excited about it. In fact, the more abundant I
feel, the more I see ‘happy choosing’ all around me. Hmm…but as I
imagine myself choosing thing after thing…I notice I still don’t really
care for clutter…and I notice the more wealthy I feel, the less I feel
about hurrying and choosing—because I can see part of that is
related to a fear that the money will run out. Hmmm…that wouldn’t
be a part of being wealthy.
“Hmm…as I feel wealthy, I can see that I tend to savor the choosing
process itself. How weird it that? It’s always been so much more fun
to actually GET what I’ve been wanting, and the wanting of it wasn’t
so fun. In fact, I kind of ‘endured’ that part. Hmmmm…wealthy feels
like there is no rush. I can take my time. I might even choose to take
my time. And I’m not worried about choosing the wrong one. I can
always choose again.
“Wow, wealthy feels like really being able to choose, really having
freedom, and really connected to how God is. There are no ulterior
motives forcing my decisions. I’m not having to look out for costs or
prices or what are really just other people’s interpretations of value.
“Wow—so much of what I have been doing on a daily basis was not
choosing or feeling wealth. And there are so many things that fill my
home that aren’t what I really CHOOSE. They are only the substitutes
I decided were better than nothing, or what I settled for because I
couldn’t have what I really wanted. Sure, there are some things I
have that I do love and appreciate—and I’d keep them no matter
how much money I had. They are already speaking to me in a way I
adore. But there’s a ton of stuff that doesn’t. So much of my home
even reflects my ‘not wealthy’ thinking!”
