Right now I’m in the middle of the Master Your Money Summer Camp launch.
Although I love the excitement and energy of starting something new, I can tell you that the last couple of days I’ve been feeling pretty exhausted and emotional.
To be honest, I woke up this morning in a complete funk!
I don’t share this to say, ‘Poor me!’ – I know that we can all feel like this sometimes, particularly when we are going through some kind of shift. So, I wanted to let you know what I did this morning to get me out of my gloom.
1) I journalled on the thoughts and feelings that were coming up for me.
There was lots of mind-monkey chatter going on! As I’m launching a new program, these are the kind of thoughts that were coming up:
‘I’m not good enough!’
‘I have to work really hard and exhaust myself to make good money’
‘I’m kidding myself when I set high goals.’
There were more, but that gives you an idea! I just got them out of my head and onto paper.
2) I tapped on the thoughts and feelings that were coming up.
If you’re not familiar with tapping/EFT, then I’ve created a video showing you the tapping routine I used today.
This is an example of the set-up statement I used, ‘Even though I know I’m kidding myself when I set big goals, I deeply and completely love and accept myself’.
This helped to clear those negative thoughts and feelings that had been draining my energy.
3) I spent 10 minutes meditating on the mantras and affirmations I’m using at the moment:
‘I am a conscious creator of my reality’
‘I allow money to flow to me easily’
‘I am constantly expanding my sense of possibility’
By the time I reached the end of these three steps, I felt energised and optimistic. I had shifted my funk!
I must admit, it feels quite vulnerable to share this very personal process. But I wanted to let you know that:
1) It is completely natural and normal to have times when you feel drained, fed-up and generally shitty!
2) You can change your state – you have the power to move from down-in-the-dumps to top-of-the-world.
3) There are some simple steps to follow so you can create your own shift.
So, the next time you’re feeling disheartened, frustrated or funky, remember these 3 steps and banish those pesky mind monkeys!
