Unlocking Abundance: Breaking Free from a Scarcity Mindset

Dear Soul,

As I filled my car up with petrol recently, I watched the dollars tick over on the petrol pump and a thought flashed through my mind, 'Jeez, that's friggin' expensive! I wonder if I can afford this!'

 I'm not sure why I thought the thought.

 But the moment I did I felt my anal sphincter literally tighten and contract. Yup! I kid you not! I was having a 'tight arse' moment. And not the sexy 'have you been working out at the gym lately?' kind. No. This was a tight arse of the scarcity mindset kind. And it was showing me exactly what happens when we focus on thoughts of lack—our energy tightens and contracts.

 Whenever we think thoughts of not having enough, of there not being enough to meet our needs, our energy contracts.

 And as it contracts, so it draws more of the very thing we're focusing on to us.

 Let me repeat that in case you missed it. As our energy contracts, so it pulls to us the very things we are focusing on that are causing our energy to contract.

The more we think scarcity-based thoughts, the more we draw scarcity, lack and constriction into our experience.

 That's the way manifestation works - whatever vibrations we offer into the quantum field, that's the type of vibrations we attract into our experience.

Whatever we focus on

we draw into our experience.

If you want to manifest more lack, focus on what you're lacking. Focus on what you feel is missing from your life, what's inadequate, not good enough, not right, what you wish was somehow different to what it currently is.

If you want to manifest more abundance, focus on acceptance of what currently is, on what's already abundant in your life, on what you're thankful for, on all the things you can appreciate in life.

Focus on the plenty that already exists in the world and celebrate it. As you celebrate it, even if it's in the hands of other people rather than yourself, so you open to the energy of it in a joy-full, open-hearted, expansive way— and so you move beyond the scarcity and contractive nature of any 'lack' to raise your vibration in alignment with the energy that is abundance.

If, you'd love to attract more of anything joyful into your life - more plentiful energy, love, financial flow, friendships, success, anything you like - focus on the plenty you already have. Focus on living in an ever-expanding infinitely abundant universe where there is more than enough money, energy, love etc to go round. And as you fill up at the petrol bowser, or withdraw money from the ATM, or look to find a new soulmate, remind yourself of this abundance and open yourself up to allowing it to flow into your life also. Use the inner power of your imagination to align yourself and your vibrational frequency with the infinite resources flowing into your life and feel the abundance of positive, expansive, light-filled energy and opportunity overflowing within you.

That is the power we each hold. And you are a powerful magnet operating in a field of attraction!

With fierce love, radiant joy, heartfelt compassion, infinite curiosity, and unwavering truth,
