The story of how I accidentally tripled my income.
I definitely, actively, aggressively DIDN'T want money when I was younger. I used to wish money didn't exist. Being interviewed for a degree in Fine Art I remember the interviewer telling 17-year-old me "You do realise you won't make any money from this degree, don't you?" and I enthusiastically didn't care and said something like "Why would I want money?"
I actually enjoyed the challenge and the creativity of living on a shoestring, making do, finding ways to barter and manifest the things I wanted without using money. I bartered my secretarial skills instead of paying fees for my first massage therapy training, and I bartered my house painting and timber floor sanding and refinishing skills instead of paying rent while I studied. I joined WWOOF and traveled bartering my room and board for work on organic farms.
I also secretly enjoyed looking down on people who were more financially motivated, because I felt it was more "spiritual" to be poor, and more interesting, edgy and exciting. At first I felt fear of being homeless or destitute, but I overcame that fear and I was proud of the fact that I was completely comfortable with $0 in my bank account as I always had "enough". There is more to life than money!
Becoming a mother was a game-changer, because now all my usual tactics didn't work. Having been adopted, I was determined to provide secure attachment to my babies, which meant they were going to be velcroed to my body and within arm's reach for years. I was able to do massage with a baby on my back, but the days of house painting and floor refinishing were over.
My partner kept a roof over our heads and paid the bills, and my only responsibility was to buy fuel and groceries out of the pittance that the Australian government gives families. Before every payment there was usually a few days I would be stuck at home with no money to do anything until the next payment. Buying the kids new socks was a major commitment. A new bike was out of the question. I felt bad that I couldn't provide better for my family.
Then I began working from home as a Bowen therapist. I only saw a few clients every week, but that money meant that I could buy fuel and groceries at will.
Then after watching a Bruce Lipton video I became fascinated by a healing method called PSYCH-K®️which teaches how to reprogram the subconscious.
It was after the basic training in PSYCH-K®️ that I accidentally tripled my income. I sat down and worked out (using muscle testing) some of the negative subconscious beliefs I had about money.
I believed that rich people were bad and greedy and boring. I believed that it was not safe to have money. I believed that I didn't deserve money. Then I programmed myself with beliefs that were the opposite, for example:
🌈I deserve money.
🌈 It is safe to have money.
🌈 Money is a spiritual blessing that blesses me and I use it to bless others
🌈 It is OK to want money and I do want it
🌈 I have more money than I need
Over the next week or two, the phone suddenly started to ring more often with clients wishing to book in. I hadn't advertised. The only thing that had changed was me reprogramming my money beliefs. My income tripled!
The tripled income remained steady and grew until I hit a roadblock when I became a single mother. The trauma of breaking up had undone some of my programming, and some other beliefs had kicked in along the lines of "single mothers live in poverty". Just when I didn't need it, all of a sudden I was sweating with anxiety about whether I could pay rent. I reprogrammed myself again and added programs like:
🌈Even though I am a single mother I am allowed to have lots of money
🌈I always have more than enough
🌈Being a single mother allows me to make even more money than before.
I also cleared money-related stress from events in my past. That landlord that unfairly kept my $200 deposit in 1990. Leaving my cash pay packet on my desk in 1991 and having it stolen. Having my 1972 VW Beetle (that I had been given for free) stolen in 2002 by the mechanic that I was bartering to repair it, after I had already done my part in the deal by painting his mother-in-law's house. By muscle testing thinking about these little events that I thought were trivial and long gone, I could determine that they were still bothering me on some level, because the muscle test went weak. Even the word MONEY itself made me go weak on a muscle test.
To do this yourself, go into a meditative state, and focus on each stressful event until it melts into peace.
My income picked up again and steadied itself. I enjoyed the strange sensation of not having to worry about money. I lost awareness of when rent day was and set up direct debit. I (stupidly) accidentally set up direct debit twice, and paid double the rent that I should have, and did not notice for over a YEAR.
I wonder if being self employed makes it easier for the universe to send more 💲 your way. Because I have noticed that people who have "normal" jobs sometimes have to lose a job in order to gain a better one.
One of my clients worked on her beliefs around money. The next thing that happened was she was no longer required at one of her two jobs, and the remaining job cut down her hours. She had a degree she was not using, not a Fine Art degree, a real one that provides skills of value to an employer. The jobs she lost were low paying jobs, and the universe was giving her space to find a job using her degree.
Another person I know used prayer to manifest the time and money to work on his side business. His prayers were answered by way of motor vehicle accident (not his fault) and the silver lining was that the insurance payout was big enough to cover his living expenses for a while... shortly after that he lost his day job and was able to dedicate himself to his new business.
I'm so glad I embarked on this journey, because the financial gains allowed me to give my children experiences they would never have had (private school, a motorbike, airfares) and I have become a better role model than my previous programs would have allowed.
As children we copy our caregivers and parents subconscious beliefs. Whenever I work with clients who are parents I ensure that all the appropriate beneficial new programming they recieve themselves is automatically passed on to their children.
Back in the early days of my journey with money programs, two of my three children had picked up on my financial stress and stopped asking for me to buy them things. They would scold the middle child when he continued asking for stuff. That worried me as a parent, because I know many people including myself can fail in life due to childhood programming that prohibits them from setting goals.
My two kids who were in danger of politely giving up on having material goals have now changed their tune. One, a young adult, is an entrepreneur building a business and the other who is in primary school was recently interviewed in the local paper and asked if she could have a superpower what would it be, and her answer was "Infinite Money".
