Navigating feelings of stress about money troubles

Uncategorized Dec 08, 2020

Financial stress can be incredibly hard and take its toll on us both mentally and physical. Carrying such a heavy burden can also start to impact our relationships with others. 

What's more, the more you worry about the problem, you may find the worse it gets. As often, when focussed on the negative, we fail to notice opportunities - this is what happens when we focus on lack and negativity, rather than abundance and positivity. If you are familiar with the Law of Attraction, then you'll be well aware of this.

Through the principles of the Law of Attraction we understand that money worries come from a place of feeling like we do not have enough - a 'lack' mindset. If we want to manifest more of something, we must focus on having that very thing we are feeling the lack of. A great phrase to remember is 'what we focus on grows'. 

So, to manifest more wealth and abundance - we must focus on feelings of having both wealth and abundance (which is really tricky when you’re stressed about not having enough, or if you’ve just lost your job or you’ve had to close your business because of the current climate...)

I believe that everything feels magnified over the festive period, combine that with the mass consumerism that Christmas brings and we have double and treble whammy!

Anxieties are running super high with so many of us right now, I have had so many messages recently and anxiety about money is just awful, I feel you! I've been there and I know how it feels.

There are a few things that you can do to help to navigate the feelings that you are experiencing (I am not here to give advice about the practicalities about money, however I can help with the feelings that you have around it).

Here are a few tips to help you to feel more calm around this time:

  • Notice how you feel emotionally when you are dealing with your finances
  • Be aware if you are spending to make you feel better - this temporary feeling is a false happiness and won't last
  • It's tricky to see yourself in a better place when you’re in a stressed place so do some creative visualisation on things that you want to create, focus on you being in a better place
  • Meditate – my answer to everything. Will help you manage your emotions for the rest of the day more easily
  • Be honest – if you can't afford to buy people Christmas gifts then don’t. Don’t get yourself into more financial stress for the sakes of Christmas presents. Your presence is so much better than presents!
  • This too shall pass. Please know that everything is temporary. Money is an energy, it comes and it goes. Please stay positive and if the anxieties around money get too much, do reach out. 
Love and light,
