In order for anything to change at all, you have to change your way of thinking. Norman Vincent Peale said, "Change your thoughts and you change your world." You have all the abundance you need right now. You just have to access that abundance. It is not easy, but what worth doing ever is? You have to do the work to change your mindset because this is a shift that starts internally. You can make external shifts to manage debt, but if you don't make internal, more pragmatic shifts, it is all for naught; you cannot make lasting change without a change in consciousness.
It may surprise you to learn that debt is not just about money. Debt occurs when we hold on to negative, unforgiving thoughts about people and situations, thoughts that actually block our prosperity and keep us in a state of lack. Abundance on the other hand, is a state of consciousness that acknowledges that we have many, many resources that we can use. It all starts up top… from your mind down. This article details step one in eliminating your debt mindset and creating spiritual and financial fitness, so read on, my friend.
The first step for attaining spiritual and financial fitness is TO RELEASE THE OLD--mentally, emotionally and physically-- and make space for what is for your highest good. You must get rid of clutter, which is a block for your energy, and let go of things and thought patterns you no longer need.
First things first--Do some forgiveness work. Make a list of people you need to forgive… and who you think need to forgive you, and work with that list. Do some sort of ritual or visualization to forgive or write out forgiveness statements. I know forgivness work isn't exactly the most fun activity, probably far from it in fact, but this is a necessary step to your abundant life.
The unforgiving energy you are holding against these people drains your energy. You're giving them permission to hang out in your mind; in fact, you're giving them a guest room there! You're making them comfortable, offering them a comforter, a cup of cocoa, your HARD-EARNED ENERGY that is stuck in unforgiveness. It's time to let go of that mental junk--for yourself, not them!
On a physical level, it's time for you to clear out the clutter in your living and work space. In the ancient Chinese art of Feng Shui, clutter is a block for your energy. If you have piles of stuff in your living room, hallway, and bedroom, it's hard for you to move around your house. It's blocking you and your energy from flowing well. Get rid of the stuff you don't need and the stuff you don't even like. If you don't like it, why on earth are you keeping it?
Give all that extra stuff away to someone else who will cherish it. If you look around, you will see things you've outgrown or things you didn't really need in the first place. What about that old tea set that doesn't match your decor? Or that paisley print top you bought because it was on sale? Think of someone else it would be perfect for and give it to them. They will feel abundant because you thought of them--and you will be free of extra "stuff" that is taking up room you could use for something you truly love.
Remember that there are also numerous charities you can donate to. You can even increase your prosperity by writing off these things on your taxes. You can sell items on Craig's List and donate the money to charity. You can keep the money and tithe it back to something that nourishes you… life coaching, your church, or even your fitness organization or instructor. Wouldn't your yoga instructor love that paisley-print top stuck in the back of your closet by the way?
There is something else that impedes our spiritual and financial fitness. In fact, the first thing people give up when they get too busy is their "me time." They forfeit the time they spent walking or meditating or praying in order to take stock of their dis-order. You have to take a mental break or you just might have a mental break. There's no reason you would give up the food that supports your body. Why give up the "food" that supports your soul?
Whether you are sitting still or exercising, use meditation or prayer to push away the mental clutter. No matter what, I practice the Reiki Method of Natural Stress and Pain Relief every morning. I've been practicing for twenty years now and I can't start the day without it. I'm not a morning person, so my Reiki practice helps get me out of bed and start my day off on the right foot.
So here are your action steps, friend. For the first step of releasing the old, I want you to focus on clearing the clutter, on all levels, and start in the right direction. Make your forgiveness list. Forgive the people on it. De-clutter your house. Purge your closet, your house, your garage, your car, your cubby, whatever! And remember to take care of you. After all, you must take care of yourself before you take care of everyone else. Trust me on this one; you will feel better and be better for it.
Don't forget to stay tuned for the next article in this series in which you will find out about another vital step to your spiritual and financial fitness. Let's get you trained and ready for a prosperity marathon, shall we?
