Raise Your Financial Vibration By Caroline Shearer

Love and Money

Excerpt from Raise Your Financial Vibration: Tips and Tools to Embrace Your Infinite Spiritual Abundance

A key to financial abundance, just like everything else in life, is love. We must love ourselves in order to feel worthy, receive abundance, maintain wealth, and grow our financial resources. If there are parts of ourselves we don’t love, our subconscious mind will find all sorts of ways to create the financial difficulties we think we deserve.

Thankfully, there are myriad ways we can address the financial challenges we’ve created. First, we must release anything that is holding us back, and then we must fill that space with what can move us forward. We also must clarify our desire.

Releasing Financially Draining Thoughts and Emotions

All of us have “dings” in our mind’s perception of our financial actions and abilities. Many of us carry doubts, worries, and criticisms every day of our lives. But, these inherently are creating more of the same challenges we faced before. If you want to move forward, it is crucial you release any guilt or blame you are harboring because of past financial decisions or your current financial status. Ask yourself:

• Are you operating with the highest integrity?

• Are you seeking/honoring your true joy? (not just momentary happiness)

• Are you impacting the world positively through your actions, thoughts, and words?

Creating Uplifting Financial Thoughts and Emotions

Once you have done your best to release negative thoughts related to your finances, choose to replace those thoughts with positive ones that will help you create a better financial reality.

• I am worthy of financial abundance now.

• I release guilt from my financial circumstances. In fact, I am proud of responding the best way I know how to financial challenges.

• I put financial problems into perspective.

• I recognize that my life is good and valuable as is, in all its forms. (In other words: I recognize that the status of my life does NOT equal the status of my finances.)

When you make up your mind to have financial abundance, you will have it. If you still are caught in miscellaneous mind dramas in relation to money, you will not.

The Fallacy of “Or”

Do any of these sound familiar?

• If I have too much, someone will have not enough.

• If I accept this, then it will be taken away from someone else.

• I can pay this or that.

• I can do what I love or choose a career to make money.

These all are constructs based on the fallacy of "or" and stem from a belief in scarcity.

I remember the “I want to earn a lot of money” or the “I want to do what I love” perceived choice I faced as I went into young adulthood. And, well, that is exactly the reality I created! When I did what I loved, I was broke. When I did things specifically to pay the bills, they got paid, but I was bored, unfulfilled, and often miserable.

Thankfully, these circumstances pushed me. It is quite a moment when we realize there is never a choice, that it is an imaginary construct!

Today, not only am I a successful author, I am a successful publisher, and even help those who want to self-publish – all with a mission is to create projects that promote goodness in the world.

When you love what you do and do it in such a way that it benefits humanity, money will flow to you naturally and easily. We can always choose “and.”

Working with Affirmations

It is important to resonate with affirmations you choose, as the emotions you feel are what will create the intended reality. If an affirmation seems too “unreal,” you won’t be able to achieve it, and you may even question the effectiveness of affirmations in general.

If this happens, you can 1. work on believing it and/or 2. work on a more precise affirmation for your belief system. I recommend both and am a firm believer in the use of tiered affirmations to help reach a point of true resonance. You must believe an affirmation is possible for it to work for you.

Affirmation: I can BE financially wealthy and have a wonderful life in every other area I choose.

Tiers of Affirmations

1. I have $500k I can spend freely.
or
2. I am capable of having/securing $500k to spend freely.

See the difference?

If you are ready to believe that you have the money already, then the first affirmation is the one for you. If there is still doubt in your heart or in your mind, start with the second affirmation and build that part of your belief system. Convince yourself first that you are capable. Once you feel you are capable, you can transition to the higher level affirmation.

I want to emphasize: work with whatever feels right to you. It may or may not be in your best interest to heal every flawed belief you have, all at once. Affirmations always should be personalized for your life, your “story.” Tweak them until they connect with where you are now and where you want to be. Allow them to be a bridge.
