What My Dental Decay Taught Me About Relating To Money

On the playground in kindergarten, I discovered my first huge dental cavity. The dramatic saga that continued around this tooth (getting it pulled, spacers being placed to keep my other teeth from crowding in, and other fillings getting filled without enough Novocain) scared me from the dentist for years. I still get nervous.

There’s a reason I share this story about my cavity, and it’s about your story around money.

From my experience with one deteriorating tooth, I developed a story that my teeth were not good teeth, and that I was very prone to cavities. My body molded to my story about my weak teeth, and despite a great diet and meticulous cleaning schedule, I’ve had cavity after cavity. Although I’m working to shift the story, it sometimes still follows me.

What I’ve learned is that when we flow negative energy toward something (this could be a body part, a person, or your financial situation), the thing that we send negative energy to will get worse. It will continue to be a trouble spot in our lives, it will deteriorate (like in the case of my teeth), or it will break down.

Are you hanging on to negative events and situations around money, which you believe are keeping more income from you?

~ Maybe you’ve had low income months in your business, and you’re not sure if that will ever change

~ Maybe you loaned money and it never came back to you, so you’re really nervous about taking risks

~ Maybe you have fear and guilt around being in debt, so you beat yourself up a lot

~ Maybe you don’t believe money will be there for you tomorrow, so you hang tight to what you have, but still watch it slip away

These stories about money may have come into your life when you were young, or they may have occurred more recently. If you think you’re bad at something and you continue to send more feelings of frustration and hopelessness to it, it grows. This could be a financial pit or pit of a dental cavity. These stories will continue to create discomfort in your finances, until something shifts.

It’s time to unravel those beliefs, and get ready to receive even more income, opportunities and clients.

Of course, it’s not always easy to upgrade those stories, and it takes time. That’s why I’m here, to support you now.

A great way to finally leave those negative money stories behind is by joining 30 Days to Release Your Financial Constriction.

It’s a group built on pleasure, and especially pleasure around your finances. (By the way, did you see that there’s a section about making love to money? Yes, you should check that out.)
