Abundance isn’t something you achieve. It’s something you embody.

​

(Read that again.)
​
​
​When you embody abundance, you become a magnet for it. (fyi, the energy of abundance is very attractive.)
​

Whether you want to attract more money, more love, more health…. the key is to start getting into the energy of what you want right now .

​
​
​Here are 3 steps to help you do just that: ​
​
​

1. THOUGHTS: Take stock of what you’re thinking about money

​

What are you thinking about money? Are you doing your best to stay positive when you’re thinking about your dollars?

​
​
If you’re having thoughts of “Ugh, gas is so expensive.” Or, “I’m never going to be able to afford a house with these prices.” Or, “Billionaires are horrible people.” then your thinking is lining up with money-as-enemy rather than money-as-ally.

​

It’s ok to have negative money thoughts – and – see if you can turn those thoughts around when you notice them. You don’t have to be perfect – but it’s super important to notice those thoughts, catch them, and then reframe them so that you stop giving your power away to money.

​

Some examples of reframes: “I know I can meet and exceed my money goals.” “I’m excited to change my money stories.” “I’m moving in a new direction, one of unlimited abundance!” Or, “There’s a way through every money block.”

​

​

2. ACTIONS: Take stock of how you’re behaving in relation to money

​

I once had a friend who would steal office supplies from her corporate job. A stapler here, a ream of paper there...

​

But I thought it was so interesting that she thought nothing of it. And she was completely oblivious to the connection between her thievery and her paycheck-to-paycheck life.

​

If you want more abundance, the key is to start embodying the actions of having overflow and more-than-enough. Stealing office supplies is embodying the energy of lack and I-never-have-enough.

​

Abundant people give. They don’t steal, cut corners (financially or otherwise) or try to get away with things. They have enough money, time and energy.

​

See if you can micro-shift an action an area of your life that’s not in alignment with abundance. How can you create more money, time or energy so that you’re moving in the direction of abundance right now?

​
​
​Consider leaving a little bit higher tip the next time you go out. Or offering someone a compliment. Or turning off the TV 30 minutes earlier to give yourself a higher quality, longer night’s sleep.

​

​
3. PLAY: Take stock of your work-time vs play/relaxation time
​

Abundant people know the importance of letting go and having fun. They consider play an active practice in their life! They know that silliness, playfulness and bringing a childlike enthusiasm to their day is a recipe for expansion and ease.

​

When we play, we are uninhabited and completely embodied in the present moment (where the miracles occur!). When your energy is not being sucked into the past or the future, you get more done in less time, are more productive and have more creative ideas. Play, counterintuitively, helps you get sh*t done.
​

​
Is your work-to-play energy balanced? If you feel worn out (as in depleted) at the end of the day, it’s probably time for a tune-up.

​

Play can mean anything from dancing in your living room to playing a board game to taking a dip in the ocean or signing up for an improv class. If you’re stuck on this one, ask yourself what you used to do for play as a kid and then go do that.
