Abundance Awaits: How to Release Your Inner Blocks
Have you been craving more financial flow in your life?
Do you have unfulfilled dreams that could come to fruition if you had more resources?
The earth element is our teacher when it comes to finances, family, and resources. We learn potent lessons when we have an abundance of earth energy in life and when we are lacking it. As with each of the elements, like attracts like. When we feel blocked from receiving wealth in some shape or form in life, we can start by evaluating our earth energy within the body.
In the root chakra of the body, we have a concentration of the earth element. The pelvic bowl, legs, and feet have an abundance of earth energy as well as the skeletal system. When we suffer ailments or discomforts in these areas, it indicates we are experiencing an imbalance with this element.
We receive food from the earth in the stomach, and with the support of our inner fire, we digest it. The food then travels through the intestines to further break down so that the nutrients can flow into our bloodstream with the support of the water element. How we experience digestion reveals to us how we feel about receiving the earth.
Issues receiving nutrients in the body, often stem back to one’s relationship with their birth mother. During development, we can pick up blocks from the way we were cared for. This can cause digestive issues and these blockages in the body then mirror in various aspects of life such as finances, belongings, and home space.
Seeking abundance from the external world can be a frustrating experience. In many ways, the outer world is beyond our control. Your inner world on the other hand is different. When working with elemental medicine, we are invited to start within. This makes the task of increasing your earth energy much more simple and easy to achieve in the present moment.
There may be thoughts in your mind about how much money you would like to earn when you would like to have a family, or what kind of resources you would like to attain. These are all external stories that swirl around you. One of the most fascinating things that I have observed from working with the elements is that they give us what we need rather than what we want.
With time and practice focusing on the truth within, it becomes easier to accept what life is offering us. Letting go of resistance to the human experience that is presenting itself. Abundance is always available to us, it depends more on our perspective coming out of our inner world than it does on the reflections we receive from the outer world.
I know from personal experience that this can be such a challenging way of looking at life at times. There were many months in my past when I struggled to meet my basic needs no matter what I did. I was using all of my energy to create more stability in my life but it simply was not the time for me to have the experience of physical abundance.
Life became such a rollercoaster for me with moving countries, various relationships, and many plant medicine experiences that it became necessary to find stability within. Looking outside of myself at that time at my home, bank account, and relationships created feelings of fear. However, when I was able to close my eyes, connect with my breath, and feel my body, things would shift.
During that period, I learned to not be attached to external expressions of earth. This allowed me to manifest a more meaningful and truthful connection with this element. We can always have less and we can always have more. That is the nature of life but having more or less means nothing if we cannot be grateful for exactly what we have in this moment.
This goes for our financial status and also for the country we live in, the house we have, and the family we are surrounded by. When we embrace that where we are is perfect, anything else that happens flows with more ease. It is not a stressful feeling of needing to manifest because we feel a lack due to competition and comparison.
We can see a profound illness sweeping the globe at this time that is born of this way of thinking that we need more. There is an abundance of everything on this planet. We have food, water, materials for building, gems for jewelry, and so much more. Abundance has never been the issue. We create illness for ourselves and the planet when we are not able to respect that wealth.
Instead of each of us growing our food which we are free to do, many still choose to buy from supermarkets. This simple example shows the disconnection that is present worldwide. We act as if we do not have access to an abundance of food but we actually do. If we are willing to learn and put in the time and energy, we can have as much food as we desire.
This is the same for building homes and dressing ourselves. The materials are given to us as a gift from Mother Earth. She is a responsible mother in the sense that she does not do everything for us. To avail of the things she offers we have to learn skills and respect the cycles of life to ensure there is not extinction of species or pollution.
If we choose not to respect the cycles of life that so effortlessly provide us with abundance we receive the perfect reflection. More lack appears in our lives as we create more lack in the natural world. When we celebrate the diversity of life and support various species flourishing, we receive more of the true abundance the world has to offer.
As within so without. The world is a bountiful place. When we consciously give and receive energy from the earth, abundance is a natural manifestation.
