All phenomenon in the Universe is comprised of vibrational energy. Money’s truest nature is energy; money is a means of exchanging energy. We live in a material world and having money allows us to function more easily in this world. We need to be comfortable with the idea of having money. Many people are burdened with the stress and anxiety of financial lack. There is enough money in the world for everyone to enjoy abundance. If this is true, why are so many struggling?

All wealth is created by the human mind. Everything that occurs in our life is ordered, directed and created by our thoughts. Our life’s experiences are created by our “inner world.” Our “inner world” means the thoughts, beliefs, and attitudes that we hold to be true about life. Our beliefs are how we represent the world inside ourselves. These attitudes and core beliefs are a result of the programming and conditioning we have received from our role models, our education, and society. Everything begins with thought. Our thoughts go out from us as vibrational energy and come back to us as our life’s experiences. The trouble is most people are unaware of their thoughts and core beliefs. Our prosperity, or lack of it, is a reflection of our consciousness. The most direct way to increase our prosperity flow is to change our consciousness.

All problems, whether physical, mental/emotional/spiritual, lifestyle or financial, are in our lives for a higher purpose. When we can figure out the POSITIVE message behind the problems, we are better able to bring about resolution. Developing an awareness of our core beliefs is crucial to resolving life’s challenges.

Begin by asking yourself the right questions. Do you have a belief that says “money is evil”, “it’s not spiritual to have a lot of money”, or “I don’t have what it takes?” How much money do you want, and do you believe you deserve it? How do you feel about others who are prosperous? What does money mean to you, and how do you treat it when you have it? Are there any other areas of your life where you hear yourself saying “not enough?” Are you passionate and excited about your life’s work? What do you fear? What values and ideals are important to you? Are you hanging onto any blame, guilt, anger, or resentment from the past? Answering these questions thoughtfully will reveal some deeply embedded concepts that may need to be changed in one’s consciousness in order to bring about financial abundance.

All of our mental conflicts, excuses, and arguments for not having money block the flow and must be acknowledged, worked through, and transformed. Our subconscious mind accepts and acts on what we really believe to be true on a deep level.

How would you feel if you had all the money you desire? Work on cultivating these feelings now with what you have. It is not really money that we want, but the freedom, comfort, security, and other qualities that we think money brings to us. How can you cultivate these qualities in your life now with what you have?

One of the most important principles of money is understanding our spiritual self and our relationship with God (Creative Life Force Energy, Source, Higher Power, Universe, etc.) What is your view of and relationship with God? Do you see God as someone who judges and punishes? Someone who is inaccessible to you, someone to fear? Taking time to reflect on these questions will begin to give you some important insights into your own financial situation. We are body, mind, emotion, and spirit. Spirit is our foundation. Creative Life Force Energy (God) is Spiritual perfection and knows no limits. We are part of and intimately connected to this Creative Life Force Energy. Learning to establish a relationship of trust with this force and connecting with it on a regular basis is a powerful tool for enhancing our financial health. We can do this by becoming aware of the presence of this Power within us through meditation, prayer, self-reflection, journaling, being in nature, and learning to be in the moment.

Many believe that having money is not spiritual or socially acceptable, and that money is the root of all evil. Money is not good or bad in and of itself. It is what we choose to do with money that determines its effect on ourselves, society, and the world. Money allows us to create beauty in our lives, and in the lives of others. The more money we have, the more we can use it to create powerful, positive changes in the world. We can function more effectively to make this a better place to live for ourselves and generations to come if we are taken care of on all levels—and this takes money. The more we have, the more we can give. We are part of an unending flow. We are here to enjoy ourselves, and to learn from and be of service to one another. When we experience pleasure, freedom, and abundance in our lives, we are expressing our truest spiritual nature. The more spiritually aware we are, the more prosperous we will be. Immerse in your psyche the idea that the Universe wants you to be abundant, and that you are willing to receive this abundance and use it for the highest good of mankind.
