Creating the Space for Abundance
by Clutter Clearing
Start your clutter-clearing this week. Choose one room
in your home and for every object that you see, ask
yourself, “Does this empower me?” Or “Does it diminish
me?” Surround yourself with objects that make you feel
vibrant and alive. Release objects that make you feel tired,

way for a new flow of prosperity into your life it
is important to clear out the old. From too many
pairs of shoes thrown in the bottom of your closet to
a jam-packed appointment calendar to 800 emails
in your inbox all can block your ability to attract the
abundance you deserve!
Clutter Clearing Overview
Clutter clearing is one of the fastest ways to completely
transform your life. Objects are invested with symbolism,
thus clearing things out of your home has a direct effect
on your psyche. You are shifting the energy of your

Why People Keep Clutter
People keep clutter for a variety of reasons. Fear of the future
is one of the main reasons for keeping things you do not really
need. You might be afraid to get rid of an item because you
THINK a need for it might arise in the future. This may be
considered “scarcity thinking.”
You create your own need and stop trusting that the Universe
will provide for you, by thinking this way. This belief becomes
self-perpetuating, because fear of the future tends to create a
fearful future.
If you believe that all your needs will be met in the future, they
usually will be. What you expect in life often becomes reality.
If you are holding on to junk because you are fearful about
the future, get rid of it! Trust that you will be exactly where
you need to be in the future. No matter what your reason for
keeping clutter, it clogs the energy in your home, your body
and your life.

and your life. It’s easy to feel drained and tired in an
environment that is packed full of stuff. In addition,
clutter is often connected to emotional issues from your
past. Your energy goes down every time you walk by that
piece of clutter that subconsciously reminds you of an
unhappy time in your life, a failed marriage, a lost dream
or a friendship that ended poorly. This energetic cord can
be a constant drain on your life-force.
The Effects of Clutter

Why Clutter is a Problem
Clutter is Expensive
Clutter affects the flow of energy throughout your home
It can seem frugal, budget-conscious and economical to
keep things that you may need someday. Keep in mind
that clutter can be very expensive mentally, emotionally
and energetically.
You waste time and energy when you frantically look for
lost items or try to clean around piles of things. You waste
money when things are bought and never used.
You spend money when duplicate items are purchased
because the originals are buried under clutter. It costs
money, time and energy to maintain and store clutter.
Clearing Your Clutter
Clearing your clutter can be a deeply spiritual process.
Throwing away clutter might feel like throwing away a
part of yourself, as so many people identify with their
things. When you trust the Universe will provide what
you need and let go of things that you no longer truly
need, you clear space for what is perfect for you right
now. If, out of fear, you tightly hold on to what you have,
then you may not open to receive the wonderful gifts that are
coming your way.
Confronting the clutter in your home frees up energy
for living in the present moment. By de-cluttering your
home, you de-clutter your life. Of course, this doesn’t
mean you need to get rid of everything from your past,
or that you shouldn’t be prepared for the future. It does
mean that there should be plenty of space and energy

Getting Started! The Initial De-Clutter
Discard/ Donate/ Give away pile.
Start small. Choose one drawer, one cupboard or one
small room. Decide how much time you are going to
spend de-cluttering. Set a timer or an alarm on your
cellphone for half of the allotted time. Begin sorting
things into categories (see below). When the timer goes
off, reset it for the remaining time so you can finish what
you’ve started.
And if you just aren’t sure, put it in the Unsure box. As
soon as the timer goes off, put everything away and clean
up. Then schedule a time for a friend to go through with
you the things in the Unsure box. Ask your supporter to
help you stay focused on the task, rather than on your
stories and feelings about the items. It’s only human to
reminisce about things, but remember to stay focused on
your intention of de-cluttering your life.
Obtain three boxes and label them:
1. Keep/Relocate/File
2. Discard/Donate/Give away
3. Unsure
Repeat as needed until your home is clutter-free. Then
repeat again as needed!
Ask yourself about each item:
• Does this make my energy go up, down or stay
neutral?
• Why am I keeping this?
• Do I really need this?
• Does this really fit who I am?
eBay Tip: Many
people get “stuck”
on an item they
want to re-sell on
eBay or a similar

type
website. The tendency may be to keep the item, convinced
you are going to have the next undiscovered Picasso or
million dollar comic book. The reality is that you will
probably never get around to listing it on eBay. Utilize a
fourth box as an eBay box. Date it and if you have not listed
it within 30 days, donate the items to a charity or toss them.
When Will I Know I Am Through?
For many people, de-cluttering is a life-long, ongoing
project. There may be no true ending. This is perfectly
acceptable, the knowingness that it is part of your nature
and that you may be de-cluttering more than some of your
friends is the first step to acceptance. For others, you will
look around your home and know that every single item
makes your heart sing and your energy go up!
By staying vigilant against the encroachment of clutter, you
will persevere and stay at relatively clutter-free living.
Charging Water for Wealth
Charging water is like charging your car’s batteries. You
are infusing the water with energy. Water that has come
from a spring or from the sea does not need to be charged
as it has already been energized by the sun and earth and
air. However most water has either been sitting in a plastic
container in a grocery store or has come from a tap and
has been chlorinated, fluorinated and filtered and has lost
its vibrancy and spirit. You may wish to first prepare your
water by leaving a ceramic or glass bowl of water in the
sun for three hours or the full moon overnight. You may
even place a cleared citrine crystal in the bowl for 24 hours
to prepare it for accepting a wealth charge. (If you plan to
drink your sun or moon water please cover it appropriately to
prevent contamination).
There are several manners in which you may charge water
for wealth, choose one (or more) that appeal to you.
• Obtain water from an exclusive shop, store, or successful
business whose practices align with your own.
• Obtain water from a wealthy individual who personifies
the qualities you admire, such as gives substantial
amounts to charity. This may be a bit challenging to do
in person, so you may also charge your water by placing
the bowl of water on top of a picture of the person you
admire for 24 hours.
• Write words that mean wealth and abundance on
your drinking water bottle and allow it to sit on your
abundance altar for 24 hours, then drink or use.
• Obtain water from any source that means abundance
to you. If this is a creek near your home, that is wealth
water for your purposes.
After obtaining or creating your wealth water, you may
then utilize it in a variety of manners:
• Put the water on your abundance altar in a lovely bowl.
• Water your plants with it, affirming that the life force
of wealth is nourishing your life as your plant grows.
• Use the wealth water in an water element in your home
or yard by adding it to a fountain or fish pond.
• Float flowers in a lovely bowl filled with your wealth
water.
Water is the most powerful symbol for financial
prosperity, as it represents the powerful flow of
abundance. By incorporating wealth water into your life
you will serve to increase this flow.
Clear Your Auric Field of Unwanted Energies
Just as you accumulate unwanted dirt and grime
throughout the day, so do you pick up bits and pieces
of energetic debris. Your auric field reacts in the same
manner; it picks up bits of dirt, debris, and unwanted
energies that swirl around. Your energy system may also
begin to attract lower vibrations as unwanted energies
become attached to your “dirty” aura.
Old patterns concerning abundance can also become
“stuck” or “embedded” in your auric field. These
patterns may be from situations in our youth that we have
forgotten or suppressed but still influence us in powerful
ways. There may be deeply rooted familial patterns that
go back for many generations that are embedded into
your aura. Or there may be patterns from past lives that
need to be resolved, such as a vow of poverty.

Creating an Abundance Altar
Consider your overall needs and the activities that you do
in your home and then decide how and where the altar
The creation of an abundance altar is an act that honors could best fit in given these parameters. For instance, if
you have small children, then you will need to situate your

is in your heart.
This is a very important step in the creation of your
altar, because the basic energy of your abundance altar is
established during its inception. The ongoing energy of
your altar is dependent upon the care and thoroughness
that you put into these preparation stages.
In preparing to construct your altar, make an initial
assessment of what you will need to do. Do you want
to paint your altar area another color? Do you need to
buy or build a table or special shelf? Are you going to
use an altar cloth? Will you section off a portion of your
bedroom with a screen or velvet curtain? Imagine viewing
the altar from various vantages points in the room to
sense the overall effect it will have in the room. Notice
how your altar will affect flow of foot traffic through a
room. Decide what overall feeling you wish to portray.
Take your time with this step - you are setting the stage
and the energy for everything which will come after.
Altar Cloths: Altar cloths are a very important part of
the altar in many traditions. Although it is not necessary
to have one, the altar cloth can provide a
kind of context, a grounding, for the rest
of the altar. It represents the foundation
that the altar is built upon. The choice of
fabric and color will greatly affect the feel
of the entire structure. Altar cloths can add
a richness and depth of dimension to any
altar. The fibers and colors that you choose
can be an additional area for personal
expression and symbolic representation.
For an abundance altar rich fabrics will
set the tone for the altar. Silks, satins, lush
tapestries, anything that feels rich to you
will be appropriate. Of course, your altar
cloth should be smooth and wrinkle or
crease free.
Representation of the Divine: Every altar
should have an object on it that represents
the spiritual or divine. At least one altar
item should symbolically represent a
dimension beyond the ordinariness of life.
For one person this might be something
from nature, for someone else it might be a
picture of a spiritual teacher or an ancient
god, for another an icon of Jesus or Mary.
No matter what your personal spiritual
beliefs are, we each need to believe in
something larger than ourselves, and this is
honored on an altar. Having an altar object
that signifies a realm beyond the physical
realms, declares your altar to be a sacred
space.
Chan Chu, or “Lucky Money Toad”: This
toad is a Chinese symbol for prosperity.
According to Feng Shui, it’s purpose is
to drive away evil, protect wealth, and
increase income.

Objects from Nature
One way to bring the beneficial energy of the natural
world into the home is by putting things from nature on
your altar. These objects bring the qualities of outdoors
into our indoor environments. For example, a small pine
cone on an altar can help bring the deep peace of the
forest into the home, subliminally evoking the memory
of soft moss and delicate flowers scattered across the forest
floor where it grew.
Natural Rocks and Stones
All stones and rocks have a grounding energy, and a
natural stone on your altar brings the qualities of the area
from which it came. For example, stones that have been
smoothed and polished by the motion of the surf carry
power from the depths of the ocean. Their spirit speaks
of the surging changes of surf and sand. Stones found
near roots of trees or along the base of cliffs have the
spirit of the ancient land. Their spirit carries a richness
of the dark loam of Mother Earth and her primordial
secrets. Stones found in inland river beds and streams
carry the flowing energy of water. Every stone carries the
energy of its past, its composition and the area where it
is found.
An object from nature can also inspire the same feeling in
you that you felt when you first found it. Imagine walking
through a mountain meadow filled with a wonderful sense
of fulfillment, as if you had everything you could ever Polished Stones

altars. This is partly because of their inherent beauty and
their light reflecting qualities, but also because over the
centuries certain stones have been thought to represent
certain human characteristics. For example, stones and
crystals said to enhance abundance are; citrine, green mica,
green aventurine or moss agate, bloodstone, Herkimer
diamonds, epidote, jade, malachite, moonstone, peridot,
topaz, smoky quartz, rutilated quartz, tree agate, and

unique properties. Tiger Lilies, Goldenrod, Yellow Poppy,
all represent wealth and prosperity. The most important
consideration is to always keep the flowers fresh and wellmaintained. Remove flowers that are past their prime

The element of fragrance in your altar can bring a

culture they are found in, from the Americas to Europe to
India and Africa.
Animals Symbols
It is not uncommon to place a symbolic representation
of an animal on an altar. This practice has been in use
since ancient times. Traditionally, representations of
animals were placed on an altar to help bring the qualities
associated with the animal into one’s life. The meanings
for animals vary from culture to culture. They also vary
person to person. The most valid meaning is the one that
intuitively feels right to you.
For the Maasai, cattle are everything: food, material,
culture, ritual. “I hope your cattle are well”, is their
traditional greeting. Cattle are a symbol of wealth and a
source of pride, and a person’s entire life revolves around
the herds; from battles over grazing lands to procuring
enough cattle to be able to wed to maintaining the robust
egos of chiefs.
Placing a symbolic representation of an animal, such as
a figurine or picture, on your altar can bring a deeper
connection to the earth and the creatures of our beautiful
planet, as well as help evoke the animal’s special attributes
within you.
Buffalo, in Native American cultures, buffalo often meant
abundance, strength, good fortune, sacredness and more.
“Buffalo Medicine” provides all things needed for living.
Fish, in many Asian cultures, are a symbol of wisdom,
wholeness and purity. In Chinese, the Arowana is called
“Kam Lung Yue”, which means Golden Dragon Fish.
This fish symbolizes great wealth and abundance. Fish

prosperity in Feng Shui. The idea is that if misfortune
hits, then the ninth black goldfish will die and absorb the
energy of the negativity.
Boars and pigs represent fertility and wealth in many
cultures. In Celtic cultures boars symbolized courage and
strong warriors. Native Americans recognized the pig as a
symbol of the abundance of daily life. In Asian cultures
the pig is a strong symbol of luck in financial matters.
Cattle are, or were, considered symbols in virtually every
Pets and Companion Animals
In present times may people place a photo of a loved pet in a special place.
Placing a picture of a favorite pet on a home altar helps remind us of all the
good times shared with that animal and keeps a place in the heart for this special
family member. It can also be a reminder that we live in a culture that has the
wealth to care for pets as family members.
Religious and Ancient Deities
Some people find great comfort in returning to the ancient deities of our
collective past. Welcoming the energy of the deities of the past can sometimes
fill a need not addressed by the religious systems of our times. A figurine, a
painting or drawing of the deity can be placed on your altar as a gentle reminder
of the qualities that the deity represents.
Sacred Objects
Whenever you place something on your altar that represents the spiritual ideals,
you enter into a time-honored tradition because throughout history sacred or
religions objects have been used for this purpose. There is power in objects that
represent the divine realms, so it is very important to examine the meaning
that the sacred object has for you. Prayer beads on an altar serve as a focus for
prayers. A figurine of an angel with arms outstretched can bring the impression
of opening to the heavenly realms. Sacred objects on an altar allow it to truly
be a place where heaven and earth meet.
Color
The colors used on your altar can have a very strong influence on its overall
energy. Purples and golds have long been associated with abundance. The color
of royalty, purple evokes luxury, wealth, and sophistication. Gold denotes joy,
wisdom, royalty, and worth. Gold implies wealth and status in every culture,
and is considered the most precious tradable commodity on earth.
Candles
The most universal items used on altars are candles. Since the earliest times
candles were not only a source of light but also a powerful symbol of Spirit.
The candlelight illuminating the darkness was believed
to represent the divine spark in human beings. Candles
were also used on altars as a focus for concentration and
meditation.

Traditional Deities of Wealth and Plenty
Ploutus (not to be confused with Pluto, who is also considered a god of wealth)
was a god of wealth in ancient Greece. He was at first associated only with bounty
of rich harvests, but later came to represent all wealth. He was blinded by Zeus so
he would distribute wealth indiscriminately.
Pluto/Hades is Zeus’ brother and ruler of the underworld and the dead. He was
also called Pluto - God of Wealth, because the precious metals buried deep in
earth were in his realm. The name Pluto was used by both the Greeks and the
Romans, and it translated into Latin as Dis - “rich.”
Lakshmi or Lakumi is the Hindu goddess of wealth, prosperity, light, wisdom,
fortune, fertility, generosity and courage. She is considered the embodiment of
beauty, grace and charm. She is said to bring good luck, and is believed to protect
her devotees from all kinds of misery and money-related sorrows.
Asian Wealth Gods: There are many different wealth deities in the different Asian
traditions. Koreans and Thais have wealth Buddhas, Tibetans have Jambhala
wealth gods and Chinese Taoists have a variety of wealth gods.
The Chinese often distinguish between civilian and military Gods of Wealth. The
most important of all of the wealth gods is Zhao Gong Ming. The civilian Gods of
Wealth are Bi Gan and Fan Li and the Warrior God of Wealth is Kuan Yu. The
God of Wealth associated with the three-legged-toad is Liu Hai.
Dzambhala/Jhambala or Tibetan Wealth Buddhas are White Dzambhala, Yellow
Dzambhala, Black Dzambhala, Red Dzambhala, and Green Dzambhala. These
five Dzambhala deities are said to be the manifestations of enlightened Buddhas.
Ganesh, the elephant headed god, also known as Ganapati is widely revered
by Hindus, especially by those in business. His image in the home represents
auspiciousness and wealth in all its forms.
Exercises for Week One - Clutter Clearing
Start with your bedroom, bathroom, or bedroom closet. These are the personal areas of
the home that often relate to personal areas of your life. The bedroom is also where you
spend the greatest amount of time. It is where you dream, rejuvenate, and have intimate
relationships, so there are often powerful metaphors within the bedroom that relate to
your inner experience of self. This is where you will begin the shifts that allow you to
open your life to more abundance. If you catch yourself thinking, “It does not matter
what the bedroom looks like, it is only me” that is a direct reflect on how you view your
abundance.

In your clutter-clearing, celebrate what you did do rather than what did not get done.
Using the steps outlined in this section of your workbook, begin your clutter clearing.
Exercise 1: Clutter-Clear One Small Area
Choose one small area within your bedroom, bathroom, or bedroom closet, such as a
drawer or shelf. Clear and clean it thoroughly, and while you do, affirm, “I am clearing
all that I do not need out of my life.”
Notice emotions, thoughts, and memories from the past that occur while you do this. Be
aware of the meaning that you give those items and why you have chosen to keep them.
Remember this motto: “Use it, love it, or get rid of it.”
Exercise 2: Clutter-Clear One Larger Area
Choose a larger area in your bedroom/bathroom/closet to clutter-clear. For example,
clear all of the bathroom drawers. Periodically affirm out loud with intention as you do
this: “I am clearing all that I do not need out of my life, to allow room for abundance to
flow.”
Words have power, and when you say affirmations at the same time that you clear out
an area in your home, this speaks powerfully to the subconscious mind. Create your
own affirmation that matches what you are clearing. For example, if you are clearing out
old clothes, you might affirm: “The clothes I keep present me as an abundant, wealthy
person. I feel rich in all manners when I wear them.”
Exercise 3: Clear a Room
Choose either the bedroom, bathroom, or bedroom closet, and completely clear it. With
every item, ask yourself: “Do I love this? Do I use this? Or
have I used it in the last two years?” If the answer is no, get
rid of it. Use your affirmation you just created.
Your bedroom, bathroom, or bedroom closet can be a
place of refuge and renewal. It is in these places that you
can refresh, revitalize, and nurture yourself. This is where
you lay the groundwork for welcoming abundance.
Exercise 4: Create an Abundance Altar
Find an area in your home and create an abundance altar
as outlined in this section. Use items that support your
feelings of abundance and expansion.
Take pictures and record the creation of your abundance
altar.
Exercise 5: Optional - Clutter-Clear Your
Home Office or Work Space
If you work from home or have a home office or work
space, it will be very advantageous for you to clutter clear
and utilize the beginning Feng Shui principles found in
this section. Begin or accomplish this clutter clearing also.

For the next 21 days find the “feeling of prosperity” and

Listen to your meditations and instill this energy of
embracing abundance in everything you do.
Even though the way we perceive ourselves might not
always be glowing, we are each doing the best we can. Our
identity, our thoughts and beliefs were often molded by
the circumstances of our life and by things that our family
and other people told us. Schools, religious institutions,
the ideas and ideals of the generation we grew up in all
shape and form the person we are today. We then often
go on to recreate those same, sometimes dysfunctional
patterns, as adults.
Your identity is like your computer, it is all the bits and
pieces of software that you have accumulated over the
years. Think of a mish-mash of programs in the guise
of ideas, perceptions, rules and “shoulds” that you have
acquired from various sources. Every experience you
have is viewed through these programs, these ideas, these
perceptions. If you believe that all rich people are bitter
and unhappy, you will see bitter and unhappy wealthy
people around you. The problem is that you may not be
aware of the beliefs about yourself and the world that
you hold. The more aware you become of the thoughts,
concepts, and perceptions you have about who you are,
the more you can begin to really understand who you are.

Day 2: Where Are You Regarding
Abundance? Uncovering Familial
Beliefs and Societal Ideas
Today we will take stock of where we are in regards
to abundance. We will use the same exercises and
processes we used yesterday to delve deeper into
where we are around abundance. Each of us has an
inner refrain, a thought or belief about abundance,
prosperity, riches, wealth. We may be surprised to
discover we may have thwarted perceptions around
abundance. Many of these beliefs have been handed
down to us from long-ago ancestors, much as red
hair or a knack for sewing seems to be inherited.
Many of our beliefs around finances, abundance or
prosperity were instilled in us as children. If money
was a concern for your family, you may have fearful or
constricted feelings around money. There may even be
blocks toward abundance if you have deep-seated feelings
of being unworthy to surpass your parents in terms of
financial success. Or the very circumstances that would
have created blocks in one person may have spurred you
toward success and prosperity! This is the time in which
you will deeply examine how you feel about prosperity
and abundance as it relates to your family.
By exploring your own roots and realizing that you are the
product of a long and noble lineage of human beings who
lived before you, you will be better able to sort through
your heritage and embrace that which strengthens you
and to break negative ancestral patterns toward abundance
that no longer serve you properly.
Remember you are both the descendents of your ancestors
and the ancestors of those who will follow you. Even those
who have no children leave an energetic legacy that will
greatly impact those yet to be born.
Your ancestors are a physical part of you via their presence
in your DNA, your genetic make-up, your bloodline.
Not only can you receive physical characteristics from
your ancestors, you can also inherit psychological profiles
or even mannerisms from your ancestors. For example,
the genetic predisposition to alcoholism has been welldocumented scientifically. More research is now being
done on the inheritability of other characteristics; such as
temperament, core beliefs, ideals and more.
You are constantly being affected by your genetic
heritage, even though it may be so subtle as to be virtually
undetectable at first glance. By making the conscious
decision to explore your own unique cultural and familial
heritage you are making a profound decision to shift and
let go of the characteristics that are not serving you and
embracing and explore the ones that do.
Remember you are not eternally and completely tied to
these feelings. By becoming aware of them, examining
them and allowing the feelings to then be released, you

ancestral stories and lore that even our grandparents had.
You may use this work as an opportunity to begin a search
of your family history and roots. Not only will you be
able to identify and shift patterns that have been tied to
abundance and the ability to embrace the flow of wealth,
you may also uncover other information that will greatly
enrich your life!
You may begin your search by asking your relatives for
information, attending family reunions, and seeking out
relatives you may have had little or no contact with until
now. Exploring your family roots via genealogical research,
such as can be found at the Family History Library at the
Church of the Latter-Day Saints in Salt Lake City, Utah,
can provide vast amounts of information. There are many
organizations available to help you in this exploration.

They also had the same crooked little fingers and very

Negative Core Belief
Awareness of your core beliefs is the first step toward being
able to release and replace them with positive core beliefs.
Refer to the examples of negative and positive core beliefs
presented previously and create your own list.
Ask yourself is each of your core negative beliefs have
always held true throughout your life. Has it truly been
a reality in your life? (For example has every rich person
you ever met really been unhappy?) Write down specific
instances of evidence of your negative core belief being a
reality in your life or that of your family. A fear named is

Exercise 6: Shifting Negative to Positive
Begin to shift the negative core belief to your positive one.
Take each of your personal negative core beliefs, one by
one, and turn it into a personal, for you, positive core
belief. Changing your language regarding money can
begin the shift in the core belief toward an abundant flow.
For example:
• “I do not deserve to be rich” can become “I deserve
riches and more.”
• “You have to work hard to earn more” can become
“Money is easy to earn.”
• “It is wrong to have more than my family does” can
become “My family rejoices in my abundance.”
• “Rich people are cruel, mean, evil and crush others to
get ahead” can become “Riches will allow me to be even
more generous.”
• “If I become wealthy I will lose my friends” can become
“I will attract the best and most supportive people into
my life at all times.”
• “Money doesn’t grow on trees” can become “There is
more than enough money in the Universe.”
• “You cannot be rich and spiritual” can become “I can
be rich and spiritual, money will not change who I am.”

Day 4: Blockages From Past Lives
There may be past life blockages that are inhibiting
you from allowing the full expression of abundance
to come into your life.
You may have spent one or more past lives as a renunciate,
such as a monk, nun or priest, in which you rejected
worldly possessions for a spiritual life. There may
be a holdover from those lives into this one which
subconsciously prevents you from accepting the flow of
prosperity you now desire. Ancient vows of poverty may
now stand in your way to the prosperity you so desire.
There may be past lives in which you were wealthy and
did not behave in an honorable manner, in which money
corrupted you. Thus, you fear wealth and power may
create the same effect in this life.
Often, when other methods of clearing blockages do not
result in the desired results, it is a past life issue. There
have been many instances of people being persecuted or
even killed in past lives for issues around money, wealth
or prosperity. Remember, it is not the actual past life that
causes present life blockages, rather it is the emotional
baggage we bring with us from that life. For example, you
may have starved to death on the streets of Calcutta and
swore with your last breath that you would never be poor
again. In other lives you may have also starved to death
without the intensity of emotion, those deaths may have
been viewed with more detachment and would not bring
forward blockages around having enough.
Exploring your past lives not only helps clear blockages
from the far past, but it can also activate intuitive talents
and abilities that you possessed in previous incarnations.
You may discover a talent that allowed you to amass great
fortune in a past life that can be re-activated in this one!
Some of the deepest and most profound issues are carryovers from past life traumas. You may benefit from my
book Past Lives, Present Miracles or my audio regressions.
There are explorations that do not involve a regression.
In Past Lives, Present Miracles there is a Past-Life Clue
Questionnaire which will guide you more deeply into
your past life exploration. This questionnaire is a powerful
way to begin to open the door for spontaneous past-life
recall, without requiring you to go into an altered state
of consciousness. If the study of past lives calls you, this
book can be a powerful tool and ally. For deeper past life
exploration, of course, consult the books and downloads
mentioned here or consider working with any of the
Certified Past Life Soul Coaches that I have trained in
these techniques. Visit http://soul-coaching.com.
For additional past life
regression audio visit http://

Exercise 1: Past Life Exploration
You may wish to explore a past life using a regression process on
your own. This can be a profound journey into self-awareness.
Embarking on a past-life odyssey not only allows you to see who
you’ve been, but in a deeper sense will connect you with the true
essence of your soul.
Pick a comfortable place in your home in which to do it. Select a
time when you’re not overwhelmed by external stresses.
To use the visualization technique outlined below for past-life
regression, you may want to create a recording for yourself to listen
to; have a friend read a script that you’ve created; or simply imagine
yourself on this sacred journey. (There are many apps available for
your smartphone/iPad that allow easy voice recording, you can
then listen to your own personalized meditation.)
When you embark upon a regression, set your intention to discover
a past life which is impacting your allowing of abundance in this
life. You might consider saying, “May I discover a past life which
has a direct effect on this life in areas of abundance and prosperity.
May this past life be one that gives me information that will be for
the greatest good of all”. Change the verbiage if you wish to do so.
There are four steps for The Inner Voyage to Your Past Life
Step 1–The Sanctuary: Relax and imagine yourself in a peaceful
place in nature. This step sets the stage for a successful regression.
Step 2–The Transition from Present to Past: You shift out of the
imagined place in nature into a neutral middle ground before
actually experiencing a past life. The transition stage allows you to
enter your past life.
Step 3–The Past Life: This is the stage where you actually experience
who you were in your past life.
Step 4–Resolving Issues: During this stage, you will release your
attachment to that life and examine and resolve issues from that
past incarnation. For example, if you were persecuted in a past
life for being wealthy you may be hesitant to achieve wealth in
this life.
Step 1 – The Sanctuary
To begin the visual journey to your past, first allow yourself to
become very relaxed. Then imagine going to a place in nature;
this can be either a place that you’ve actually been where you felt
at peace, or an imaginary place. This is your sanctuary, where you
feel safe and grounded.
Visualizing yourself in nature will help create a feeling of peace
before going on to your past-life regression. You’ll feel the
connection with the earth, and this provides a sense of great
comfort for many people. The sanctuary increases your feeling of
safety and well-being before stepping into the past. If you are not
a visualize person, imagine the feelings, sounds, smells, touch,
and the energy of your sanctuary.
Step 2 – The Transition from Present to Past
Once you’ve imagined a place in nature, it’s important to have a
gentle transition before stepping into a past life. Here is a popular
method that can help you make a successful transition.
Bridge of Time: While you’re in nature, a bridge appears. You
climb up the bridge high above the clouds. As you continue your
journey, you descend down the bridge through the clouds into a
past life. Each step takes you closer and closer to the past life you
will benefit from exploring.
Step 3 – Visiting Your Past Life
After your travel from your sanctuary in nature, across the bridge,
the next step is to visualize your past life.
An important key to past life regression is to allow your
imagination to flow.
Imagine you have stepped into your past life body, take a moment
to look down at your feet and notice what you’re standing
on. Notice the covering on your feet and if these feet seem
to be male or female, or if you’re young or old. Feel your
body, notice the type of clothing you are wearing and see
if you get a sense of a time or an era. Ask yourself if you
are indoors or outside and what your surroundings? Be
aware of noises, smells, physical sensations, and most of
all, be aware of your emotional state. When you become
comfortable you can begin to explore your surroundings.
Remember, you can always immediately slip out of this
past life into your present life.
Start by getting your body into a very relaxed position, either
sitting or reclining. Now take some very deep breaths. With
each breath you take, and with, each sound you hear, you
become more and more relaxed.
Allow a delicious slow wave of relaxation to roll up from
your feet, through your hips, up your torso, out through your
arms and hands and up and out of the top of your head. Your
entire body is now relaxed and warm and comfortable. Take
one very deep breath and totally surrender and let go.
Now imagine you’re walking across a field. It’s a warm day
(You may wish to ask questions of your guides to help you and you’re filled with the scent of the summer grasses. You
clarify any questions that arise. If you feel so moved, ask hear the gentle drone of insects and the summer songs of

imagine yourself floating out of that body and entering
into a spirit world where you can begin to review the past
incarnation that you just experienced. While in the safety
of the spirit world, you’re also able to release old patterns
surrounding abundance, deepen skills you gained in that
life and connect with others you may have known. Imagine
that everything that you experienced in that incarnation
was for your development as a soul and for your growth
in this life. Ask yourself what you learned during every
turning point in that life and what the meaning was of
each event? When you are complete, imagine that you are
radiating love and joy to that lifetime from your vantage
point in the realm of spirit. Embrace the soul that you
were in that lifetime.
The mist has become so thick that you can’t see the other side
of the bridge. In fact, you can see only a few feet in front of
you as you step onto it. With each step you take, you know
you’re nearing one of your past lives. I shall count from 1
to 10. When I reach 10, you’ll step off the bridge at a time

you can’t see, you can begin to feel your body changing as it

incarnation. Now, 1-2-3-4 . . . with each step you take the

you standing outside or inside? What surface are you standing on?
Sand? Stone? Tile? Wooden floor? Grass? What covering do you
have on your feet? What clothes do you have on? Do you feel more

Look around and note what you perceive. Are you in the country
or the city? If there are any buildings, notice the architecture. Are
there any people nearby? If there are, listen to them speaking.
What language does it sound like? Are there any people who
resemble people in your present life? As you explore and perceive
this life, notice your feelings and emotions. How does it feel to be
in this life? You’ve a few minutes to explore this life. Be willing to
use your imagination. You may do it now.
Now go to a time in this lifetime that was very significant or
important to you. You’ve a short while to experience what
is happening and to determine how you feel about these
circumstances.
Continue to go forward in time in the past life that you’re
exploring . . . go forward to the time when you’re about to shed
your body and pass over to the spirit world. How did you die? Was
it slowly or suddenly? What people were around you? Where you
reluctant or glad to go? From a spiritual prospective, the process of
dying is seldom recognized as a painful event, and there is usually
a great sigh of relief once you realize you’ve passed over. It’s like
returning home after a long absence. You’ve a minute to observe
this event in your past life. You may do this now.
Now go forward into the spirit world. From your perspective in
the spirit world, what did you learn from the past life? Were there
any fears or concerns from that life that are present in your life
today?
As you realize where these fears originated, you know that they
are not real, and it’s simple to release them. Just release them. You
know that you can create your life in the present to be exactly the
way you want it. You know that you can choose freely without
programming from other lives.
Now it’s time to let all of this fade away and return to your
present life. Just let the past life fade away . . . just drift away.

Past Life Coach. http://soul-coaching.com.
Remember to have fun in your past-life explorations.
Enjoy the process and let go of concerns about being
always historically correct—this makes it easier for your
subconscious mind to bring up past-life memories. If
you’re constantly questioning the validity of the historical
facts of your past life, you can lose the psychological value
of your exploration and it becomes more difficult to recall
your past life accurately.
Through the use of past-life recall exercises, you can open
the door to the past and can begin to release limitations
from past lives and have a more beautiful, loving future.
Past-life exploration can help you gain an unparalleled
understanding of your present-life circumstances and
help open your life to abundance and happiness.
After the past life journey please take a few moments to
record your feelings in your Journal.
Day 5: Timeline of Your Life
Regarding Abundance

money was something that could be taken and you did
not have to earn it on your own.
Creating a timeline allows you to examine your

have begun at various times in your past.
Creating a personal timeline is an excellent way to jog your
memory and record the events and trends in your life. A
detailed timeline can help you pinpoint exactly when and
what caused a limiting belief or poverty consciousness
way of thinking.
Exercise: Create an Abundance Timeline
There are a variety of different methods for creating
your own personal abundance timeline. For this exercise
select one method that feels good to you and begin your
exploration. You may, of course, create as many timelines
as you wish to create.
This timeline is to reflect major milestones in your life
that relate to money, finances, abundance and wealth.
Record any significant event that occurred around
finances, regardless of how trivial it may seem. For
example: if your lunch money was taken from you every
day by the class bully and when you told your father you
were admonished for being weak, you may have created
a correlation between talking about money and feeling
Method 1: On your poster board, divide it into five or ten
year increments and record important events of your life
in each section. This is a relaxed approach and you may
choose to have the divisions be circular, like a tree, along a
line, much like a ruler, or any manner in which you wish
to display your life. Embellish the sections as desired.
Method 2: Use one sheet of paper for each 10 years of
your life, or the template on page 40. Turn your page
sideways (landscape) and fill out as follows.
1. On the first page, write your full name and date of
birth on the top left side.
2. Under your name, write your father’s full name
and age at the time of your birth. Next to his name
write the beliefs you feel your father had regarding
abundance.
3. On the next line, write your mother’s full name
(including her maiden name) and age at the time of
your birth. Write what she believed about money, in
your opinion.
4. On the next line, write both sets of grandparents
and their beliefs around money and finances, in your
opinion.
5. On the top right side of the page write: “The First 10
Years.”
6. Every two inches draw a horizontal line across the
page. For every inch make a mark reflecting a year.
Repeat for ten years.
7. Above your time line, jot in historical events.
8. Below the line, write in 2-3 word titles of events that
happened to you or your family during these years.
9. As you review the beliefs of your parents and
grandparents record any beliefs of theirs you may have
adopted as your own–both negative and positive.
10.Repeat for as many pages as needed for your life.
When you complete each decade notice what beliefs
you adopted and/or released regarding abundance.
Method 3: Freestyle, using a creative circular style you
begin to create and see where the process takes you.
Method 4: Post-It® Style–using sticky notes, write, post
and move, as needed, the various elements of the timeline.
Method 5: Create a timeline with life as a tree.
Method 6: Create a timeline as a life as a river.
There is software available for timeline creation, such
as http://www.tiki-toki.com, http://www.smartdraw.

Day 6: Clutter Clearing for
Abundance

you can safely release.
More clutter clearing? Yes, absolutely! With every
unused or unloved item that leaves your life you
are making room for abundance to flow more
powerfully into it! The Universe will fill a vacuum
and by clearing your life of what no longer serves
you, space is opened up for what does support you.
Exercise 2: Your Clutter Questionnaire
For this exercise, answer the clutter questionnaire and
then choose one area to clear (it does not have to be big).
Remember to keep your focus on abundance as your clear.
When clutter-clearing, it is valuable to be aware of the “I
am my house” syndrome.

First method: Close your eyes, relax, and imagine yourself
walking around your home. Visualize yourself picking up
a variety of items throughout your home. Notice where
your energy seems to go up, and where it goes down. Do
some items make you smile and others give you a sinking
sensation? This is the answer to what stays and what is
gotten rid of throughout your home and even your life.
Answer yes or no to the statements below:
1. Bedroom
___ I wear the clothes in my closet and I feel prosperous
when I wear them.
In other words, I do not have totes full of clothes that
I never wear because:
• they do not fit but might someday

___The space beneath my bed is clear. (In traditional Feng
Shui items under the bed impede the flow of abundance).
2. Bathroom
___ All medications are current.
___ The items in my medicine cabinet have been used in
the last year (such as perfume, make-up, shampoo, etc.)
___ My bathroom cupboards and the areas beneath the
sink are clutter free.
3. Kitchen (In Feng Shui the kitchen is the room in the
house that most equates with finances)
___The appliances (toaster, refrigerator, coffee maker,
etc.) are in good repair.
___My kitchen counters, cupboards, and floors are clean.
___The food in the cupboards is less than a year old.
4. General Home

faulty plumbing, leaking roof, and so on).
___ I am able to find things easily without a long search.
___ I do not have piles of newspapers and magazines that

Reviewing your answers should give you a clear sense of
those areas that need some clutter-clearing. It is valuable
to make positive affirmations as you do this. For example,
if you decide to clutter-clear your home office bookcase,
you might affirm: “I have received wisdom, knowledge
and value from the books I no longer need to keep. I
happily share that wisdom with others. My knowledge is
safe within me.” Embrace the feeling of wisdom, confident
and secure that you have absorbed what you needed to
from your books.
Day 7: Mental Clutter Clearing for
Abundance
Exercise 1: Examine Your Schedule &
Add Relaxation
Take time to examine the schedule of your life. Do you
have an abundance of time? Have you scheduled time for
joy, relaxation, friends and family? Look at your schedule
and determine exactly, honestly where your time is going.
Remember the saying, “Where attention goes, energy
flows.” Is all of your attention going to a video game?
Reality TV shows? Or is your time drain extra work? Or
Clutter can also be internal—for example, having such a volunteer obligations? As you look at the hours you spend

the time drains that do not serve you.
Even more clutter clearing? Of course! But this
time it is mental or internal clutter…the negative
thinking, the long held onto patterns, the chatter,
the negativity that keeps you from maintaining
the clear, abundant thoughts that will empower
your life.
When dealing with mental clutter, start with the most
pressing issue. As you take care of the mental clutter and
energy draining ideas, you will immediately feel an energy
up and at the same time, a sense of relaxation. You will
find you now have time to create the abundance you
desire, and mental space for the creativity to accomplish
it. Stress will be tossed out along with the clutter!
Exercise 2: Clear Mental Clutter
Mental clutter can be over-scheduling yourself, incessant
talking, compulsive worrying or a host of other “go-to”
coping mechanisms. By occupying all of your time with
doing and going, you never have to face the real issues
that are standing in the way of prosperity. Clearing out
the mental clutter – eliminating negative mind chatter
and limiting beliefs – creates room for you to develop an
abundant, wealthy mind set. Do you think like a poor
person or do you think like a rich person? Do you assume
good things are going to happen or that disaster is right
around the corner? Our abundance mind set is reflected
in everything we think, do and say, from finding change
in the clothes dryer to creating a life full of prosperity.
Exercise 3: Continue Mental Clutter
Clearing
Today, begin to clear anything that might represent
mental clutter (such as unnecessary papers, outdated files,
magazines or newspapers, financial receipts, coupons you
will never use, clipped articles, and so on).
Keeping clutter because you might need it someday is
a negative affirmation. It tells your subconscious mind,
“I never use this item, and I am okay now without it.
However, I might not be okay in the future, so I better
keep it.” If you have a lot of items that you are keeping
for this reason, they can be a self-fulfilling prophecy that
affirms a future filled with a lack of the things that you
need.
Continue to examine any mind sets or ways of thinking
that may be blocking your flow of abundance. This may
seem like a simple exercise, but it is most definitely not!
This exercise can continue to take you deep into the
innermost depths of your core beliefs.
Continue to ask yourself: “If this represented something
about me and my life, what would it be?” Employ the
power of metaphor with your clearing. For example, if
you have financial difficulties, you might consider going
through old bills and financial papers, affirming: “I am As you clutter-clear, continue to ask yourself, “If this
clearing away blockages, and abundance is flowing into represented something about me and my life, what would
me!”
it be?” When even one small thing is cleared, celebrate
with enthusiasm. Honor yourself for what you have done.
As you clear clutter, affirm: “I am opening space within Stop. Breathe. Smile! Celebrate every advance that you
myself (or my computer) for mental clarity and focus.” made.
As a suggestion, as you clutter-clear, you can say: “With
everything I release, more abundance comes my way.”
If you only have time to clear one area, choose the area
that will symbolically have the most impact on your life.
For example, if you are experiencing blockages in your
career, clear the desk in your office with the intent that
you are gaining more mental clarity regarding your career.
Computer Clutter Tips: Old files, outdated programs and
other unused software is also clutter, clutter that is slowing
down your computer’s efficiency. You can purchase an external
hard drive for relatively little investment now or purchase
subscriptions to “cloud” storage and store any files you need,
but not daily. There are also programs that will automatically
perform backups throughout the day, keeping your files secure.
Day 8: Planting Seeds of Creations
and Asking Noble Questions

To be able to better define your goals and dreams, you will

what you desire. This is actually planting the seeds
Starting now, begin to watch your thoughts and notice
of creating your future abundance.
Your Seeds of Creation are the beginning of the actual
creation of what you want to have in your life. These
are YOUR dreams, your desires and you do not have to
answer to anyone else in the creation of this list.
For example, if your absolute deepest desire is to go
to New York and stay in a five star hotel and eat at the
hottest restaurant of the moment that is right for you.
As another example, your deepest wish may also be to
start a sanctuary for elephants and that is the beginning
of creating a plan and achieving the fulfillment for that
desire.
Each of the above examples start with the crystal clear
definition of a desire. This allows you to then focus on the
exact steps that would be taken to fulfill that desire. In
our example, the first person may then begin researching
hotels in New York and determine which hotel will be the
one. Airfare, miscellaneous expenses and such would then
be budgeted for and the savings could begin.
how many questions you ask yourself. Some are the little
questions that dance through everyone’s mind, “What do
I want for lunch?” or “Look a squirrel, I wonder what he
has in his paws?” And some are the darker questions that
run though our minds, beating a negative refrain into our
psyche, such as, “Why am I always broke?” “Why can I
never get ahead?” ‘Why do I never have enough money?”
These questions do not serve us well. Your subconscious
rushes in to answer with the first available answer, and
sadly, that is too often a nonproductive one. For example,
the “Why am I always broke? question may be answered
with “Because you are not good with money.” This is the
answer you have most often replied to that question with,
so it is the one that pops up first, much like a Google
search on your computer.
I call these kinds of questions “unworthy questions.”
Whenever you ask yourself an unworthy question, you
will get a negative answer, which then creates even more
negativity in your life. These negative questions answered
with equally bleak responses create a pattern of victim
thinking and poverty consciousness.

victimized. Even when it would seem to anyone looking
at your situation that you are a victim, you can choose not
to feel that way!
Also, if you ask yourself, “How can I feel and be even more
abundant?” your subconscious mind may come up with
wonderful, creative ideas for you to actually become more
prosperous. But if you ask, “Why am I always broke?”
your subconscious mind will not doubt the concept
that you are poor, and may answer with, “You are broke
because you blew your money foolishly” which does not
empower you.

Exercise 4: Find Empowering Answers
Today, recall a situation where you feel or have felt you
were treated unfairly around money, and ask yourself the
following questions.
• “If there was something that I was gaining from this
situation, what might it be?”
• “Why am I allowing this person or situation to victimize
me?”
• “How can I change my perception of this event so I
don’t feel victimized?”
• “Do I need to stand up for myself?”
• “Do I need to walk away?”
• “Do I need to change the context in which I view the
situation?”
Exercise 5: Choose Abundance
Look at your prosperity timeline from Day 5 and write
down some of the pivotal financial events in your life.
Then, affirm each and every experience, “I chose this
experience, and I unconditionally accept this event in my
life.” Keep saying it to yourself until you begin to feel
unconditional acceptance of your life and your past.
At first you may not believe it and it can even feel “fake” or
as if you are lying to or manipulating yourself. But know
that by doing this exercise you are taking the steps out
of being a financial victim and becoming an empowered
being, one who owns their power and is capable of making
their own decisions around finances and money.
Day 9: Vision Board Collage
and friends to come forward and assist you on your path
towards abundance.
The creation of an abundance collage is an
inner journey that allows your soul to speak to
you. Your soul’s voice can be heard through the
images, feelings, and insights that surface from
creating this kind of collage! Layer after layer of
deeply hidden messages about who you are—and
who you are becoming—can be uncovered in this
soulful process. It also can dramatically increase
your ability to manifest your financial dreams.
The creation of a collage begins a spiritual awakening, an
opening to your deepest connection to who you are as an
abundant being, a wealthy person on every level and then
by meditating upon the completed collage, you open the
door to even deeper levels of communication with your
soul. Having your collage in your home or office will
continue to anchor those messages and new prosperous
realities into your life. This kind of collage is like an altar
in the way it can impact your space with positive energy.
You do not even have to look at it everyday, merely having
it within your space deepens the connection.
In ancient times, people conducted rituals, ceremonies,
rites of passage, and used a variety of divination systems
as ways to connect with the spiritual unseen realms.
These ancient practices allowed ancient peoples to tap
into the answers they held within. Creating this collage
can be used as a form of ritual or ceremony that allows
for the flow from the subconscious into the conscious.
It can open the doors to your spiritual guardians, allies,
What Exactly is an Abundance Collage?
There are a vast array of terms used to describe this kind of
process; such as a Vision Board, Vision Seed Map, Treasure
Map, Manifestation Board, and more. For the purposes of
this course, we will use the terms interchangeably, with
Vision Board, Vision Seed Map and Abundance Collage
used most frequently.
A simple description of this type of collage is a piece
of poster board on which you glue images, words, and
phrases (that you’ve cut out from different sources or
magazines) on the board with an intention.
The basic concept is by the setting of your intention (and
reinforcing it with the physicality of the images and words
on the board) you are grounding your intention into
the physical world. In this process, you create a potent
interpretation of not just the actual images of things you
desire, but more importantly, the feelings you wish to
experience when you achieve your goals. (For example,
the actual image of the particular new car you want is not
as valuable as the images that elicit the feeling you perceive
having the car will give you). This is a very important
distinction from most collage systems. Abundance may
mean financial wealth to one person, while it means time
to spend with loved ones to another. Prosperity may be
earning $500 a week to some and $5000 a day to others.

carry yourself in a way that says, “I am confident,

in simple terms, act as if you are abundant and

Your body shouts who you are to the world. This is great

the message does not empower and support you.
Exercise 1: How Do You Carry Yourself?

shoulders, breathe in a shallow way, and try to feel
fabulous and abundant without changing your body!
Now shift that energy; pull your shoulders back, lift your
chin, stand up straight, look up, and smile confidently.
While keeping that posture, try to feel depressed and
poor. If you keep your body in that peak position, it is
virtually impossible to feel downtrodden and poor.
Remember: How you carry yourself and present yourself
to the world is the secret key to how you feel.

Have you ever caught an unexpected glimpse of yourself

Today, notice how you hold and carry your body. What is
your posture telling the world?
Abundant Tip: If possible, ask a friend to record you as you
walk using a video camera or their cellphone, without your
knowledge. This may be an eye-opening experience!
By changing how you hold your body, you can change
your life. Your emotions are tied so closely to your body
and mind and they are all constantly sending messages
to each other in a constant flow of energy. If your mind
receives the message from your body that it hurts and is
tired and stressed, then your mind will absorb that energy.
If your body sends a message of confidence and excitement
your mind will pick up on that and your thoughts can
then shift your actions.
Exercise 2: Choose How To Feel
Right now, choose how you want to feel, and then act
as if you are feeling that way. You might decide to feel a
quality such as confidence, abundant and generous. Stand
in front of a mirror and arrange your facial muscles, the
way you stand, your shoulders, the way you breathe, and
your entire body into the state you desire. Ground the
energy of how that feels and “lock” it into place with a
trigger. Pick something unusual, such as the image of a
crown on your head or the taste of a pickle, something
that will snap you into the memory of that moment.
This is your trigger. Then continually put yourself into
that empowering physiological state. If you feel this state
slipping away, bring the sensation of your trigger to mind
and you will pop back into the state you desire to be in.
From right now until you go to bed tonight—act as if
you already are an abundant person. For example, if your
desire for the future is to feel wealthy, then act as if you
already have wealth. Walk as if you are wealthy. Carry
yourself as if you have an abundant life, and even dress as
if you are wealthy. Think prosperity. Every time you catch
yourself acting in any other way, snap yourself back into
the positive persona of your prosperous self. The future is
being created right now. So right now, this minute, begin
to create the positive future you desire. Begin believing
right now that you can and will have an incredible future,
no matter how unlikely it may seem from where you are
in your life circumstances. And so it will be!
You may be asking how is acting wealthy going to help me
make money? What if you were trying to be happy. You
would not rush out and try to acquire happiness, you would
just decide to be happy or do something to make yourself
happy! The same applies to being wealthy or abundant. You
can simply decide you will have a more abundant attitude
and so it will be. If you embody the essence of abundance
then it will flow to you. Of course, keep in mind, that
you will be honestly, completely, with all of your being
viewing every situation that comes into your life as an
amazing and wonderful source of abundance (even if it
is not readily apparent to you). Trust that abundance is

positive quality that you have chosen. This communicates
in a dynamic way to your soul that this is who you truly
are. It also communicates to others that this is who you
are, and they will reflect that back to you.
Exercise 3: Act As If
There is a direct correlation between your thoughts and
emotions and the future you will create. For example, the
more confident you currently feel, the more likely you are
to have a confident future. The more you feel defeated and
poor, the more you are likely to have a defeated future.

How to calculate the Numerology of your Home
To discover the numerology of your house take the
numbers of your address and add them together. For
example if your house address is 710 Elm Street you
would add 7+1+0= 8 so your house would be an ‘8’
vibration. If the total is more than 9 you would add those
numbers together until you reach a number nine or less.
For example if your address is 783 Main Street you would
add 7+8+3=18 then you would add the numbers of the
total together. 1+8=9. So the numerology for 783 Main
Street would be a ‘9’ vibration.

in a Six will find it much easier to go directly to the heart
of the matter with their client but in a compassionate

roommates, friends and family come to life in a Six
house. Also the beautifying of the home as well as the
surrounding area will be important in a Six house.
Challenging aspects of a Six home: Because a Six vibration
is so geared towards giving sometimes there is a tendency
to give too much of your self. Seek a balance between
giving to others and taking care of your own needs.

towards being reclusive. If this happens push yourself to
get out and see the world.

contemplation and retreat. It is a place where you can

in view of spiritual development. A Seven house is perfect
for someone who lives alone who wants to retreat and
meditate and seek divine inspiration. It can be a bit

telepathic experiences, philosophical and metaphysical
studies all helping you find your in life.

boundaries. You give to others freely because
you recognize how much you have gained in
your own life. You can develop a breath of
wisdom that can even be prophetic in a nine
vibration. Because you know that you are
part of a universal family you have the ability
to release the small things in life and take
things impersonally without taking offense.
Old friendships are important and you might
hear from people from your past living in a
Nine house. You’ll find people drawn to you
because of your compassion and wisdom.
This is a good home to live in to tie up loose
ends in your life. Live your truth because you
will be an example for others.

22-Unlimited potential of mastery in any area,

and mental as well.
33-All things are possible.
I believe that in every moment your life is
guided and I believe that where ever you live
is a part of a greater plan for your live and
your evolution. We often have no choice in
the home that we live and or the subsequent
numerological vibration. However every
vibration has its beauty and will give you what
you need at the time.
Challenging aspects of a Nine house: In your
effort to be aware of what the greatest good is
for the greatest number of people you may fail
to see the needs of the individual. In addition
you may fail to see the particular need of one
aspect of yourself as you overly concerned with
the overall picture for your whole self. For an
example, you may be aware that candy is not
good for you but may fail to be aware that the
inner child inside of you needs the comfort of
candy now and again.
For example you may think that you want
to be alone and develop spiritually and you
find that you have to move into ‘3’ vibration
house, which is the energy of communication,
expression and expansion. Even though this
might not seem like what you want at the
time I would suggest to you that this is exactly
what you need. I don’t believe that there are
accidents in the where you are living. You

Affirmations work because what you focus on
is often what you create for yourself. Your word
is your wand. If you constantly tell yourself, “I
never have enough money” your subconscious
mind begins to believe it, and you end up without
enough money. However, if you think that your
life is abundant and full, you will find prosperity
and riches pouring into your life.
By using positive affirmations you focus on thinking
consciously about your words, thoughts and patterns.
Below are a variety of wealth or abundance affirmations.
You may create your own, of course, just remember to
keep them positive, in the present tense, and focused on
what you DO want, rather than what you do not want.

Problems arise, however, if at an early stage some of the
foundation beliefs were formed from a place of fear or
perception of lack or “less than.”

intentions creates powerful amplification, indeed!

Day 12: Crystals, Essential Oils,
Ceremonies and Programming
Prosperity.
Using tools such as crystals, aromatherapy or
essential oils, and specific ceremonies dedicated to
prosperity has been part of our spiritual toolkit
since a cave person first picked up a shiny stone
and tied it around their neck.
Crystals and polished stones are often used on altars, in
Wealth Bowls, Miracles Boxes and more to amplify the
attraction of abundance. While there are many stones
traditionally associated with prosperity, (see below) it is
best if you only use stones that you love, whatever they are
and dedicate them to prosperity and abundance.
Prior to using your stones/crystals, first cleanse them in
running water, the sun or moonlight. Then dedicate them
to your prosperity. These stones should only be used for
abundance work after the dedication, unless you choose
to dedicate them to another purpose.
Amber: Promotes good luck and success.
Herkimer diamonds: Great amplifier, put them in your
wallet near money to magnify the abundance.
Lingam stones: keep them oiled with sandalwood oil.

both acquiring and maintaining wealth.

Peridot: Draws money and opportunity your way.
Red Garnet: Good for women for career success.

your creativity to build wealth.

Ceremonies for Abundance
Programming Your Mind-set
All of the information, tips, and tools you are learning
within this course will lay the groundwork for
programming your mindset for abundance. Here are a
few tips and hints to help ground this program into your
energy field.
Many, if not most, of the ancient ceremonies around
abundance were in conjunction with harvest time,
planting time, or the time of the year in which certain
animals were hunted or fish were caught, such as the
spawning of salmon or the migration of buffalo. Our
ceremonies may not be dependent upon a harvest festival,
but we can use them as the basis for our own prosperity
invocations.
Make sure that you are at ease with the concept of
experiencing abundance. Many people seem to think that
becoming wealthy is not spiritual. This belief alone can
block any abundance you might otherwise experience, so
please revisit Day 2 if you have any nagging beliefs that
money is “bad.”
Programming for Prosperity
You deserve abundance in every aspect of your life: career,
personal relationships, your home, your knowledge, and
of course, your financial life.
Remember, money is neither positive or negative. It is a
symbol of energy, a neutral currency we use that is easy

spiritual or not spiritual.
Mudra is a term most commonly referring to gestures
with the hands. Many mudras are culturally inspired and
vary greatly from one location or ethnicity to another.
Keeping the fingers placed in these specific gestures or
poses concentrates the energy and grounds the mind into
the body, acting as a shortcut to immediately take the
mind to a certain state.
If you have financial abundance you can live a comfortable
life and help others do so also. If you do not have enough
to take care of your own needs it is much harder, though
not impossible, to help lift others up.
Exercise 1: Use Crystals for Prosperity
For example: Put your hands at your heart level in a prayer • Incorporate stones or crystals onto your altar, deck or

• Create ways to incorporate your abundance oils into
your daily life. For example: place a drop of oils on your
hands daily and run your hands over your money, your
wallet, handbag etc.
• As you inhale your personal prosperity blend (or
Frankincense) imagine you are absolutely abundant.
When each person has finished potting their seeds, put
each of the pots on the altar/flat space. Join hands and
allow each person to say what they are thankful for and to
then bless their seeds. Close the circle with an affirmation
such as: “We welcome the abundance that will grow from
these seeds of love and ask that these seeds be nurtured and
cared for as they grow to their full size and abundance.”
Then water each plant. Each person will then take their
pot with them to care for as it grows.

environments that we have grown used to and feel safe
within. It determines the type of friends we have, the work
we do, where we live. Our comfort zone figures more
dramatically into our everyday lives than we may realize!
It determines the entire life style we accept or reject.
In 1908 psychologists Robert M. Yerkes and John D.
Dodson conducted a “comfort zone” experiment. Using
mice, they found that stimulation improved performance,
up to a certain level, this is now known as optimal anxiety.
When that level is passed, and there is too much too much
stress, performance deteriorates.
“We need a place of productive discomfort,” said Daniel
H. Pink, author of Drive: The Surprising Truth About
What Motivates Us (Riverhead, 2009). “If you’re too
comfortable, you’re not productive. And if you’re too
uncomfortable, you’re not productive. Like Goldilocks,
we can’t be too hot or too cold.”
Negative comfort zones can be overcome by setting and
thinking about positive goals. What we think about all
day and what we expect, whether it is positive or negative,
is our comfort zone.
Comfort zones are directly related to our dreams or goals,
which them become our realities. In order to grow and
change, we must first want to change our current comfort
zone. If we clearly and vividly visualize ourselves being
and having the things we truly want, we will create a new
image of who we want to be and are. The old comfort
zone will eventually be more and more restrictive and we
will then be able to create our new comfort zone and new
reality.
If you wish to expand your comfort zone, the objective
is to discover your own unique comfort zone and then
expand it. Then that new level becomes your new comfort
zone and you can continue the process. Ideally, you will
get more used to those feelings of “productive discomfort”
and won’t be afraid to try new things.
Some seem to be born with a comfort zone that is easily

Creating Your Wealth Bowl
Creating Your God Box
A God Box is somewhat different from a Miracle Box.
The latter is about things you wish to manifest in your
life, while a God Box is about what you want to turn over
to the Creator/God/Goddess – anything that is holding
you back. Create your God Box as you did your Miracle
Box, keeping in mind:
• This box is dedicated to the Creator, so decorate it in
alignment with the feelings or beliefs you have about the
Creator.
• For example: You might write down a fear of being poor
as: “I lovingly hand over my fear of being poor to You,
God/Creator”.

Next, set your intention. This is best done in a place of
quiet, focused attention. Write an affirmation or read one
that moves you, and place it inside the bowl, or underneath
it. You may wish to meditate upon your intention and
envision your prosperous life ahead.
Place your bowl where you will see it often and fill it with
powerful intentions each time you see it. Many place
their Wealth Bowl on the Prosperity corner (far lefthand corner) of their desk. Your Wealth Bowl represents
prosperity and wealth, so use objects that deeply and

Spirit Guides
Personal guides are those who have been on the earth
plane before in previous incarnations and who also may
have been with you in previous lifetimes. They have a
deep regard and unconditional love for you and desire
to support you on your spiritual journey. As they’ve been
on the planet before, they understand the difficulties and
challenges of living on the earth and can offer valuable
support. Some of your personal guides may even be

Sometimes a guide will arrive for just a short period of

even though they only appear once or twice, they have
come to help.
These guides may also appear during an emotionally or

energy. For example, if you have lost your job and need

Special-Purpose Guides
Although some guides are lifelong companions, others
come to work with you in one particular area. A special
purpose guide would be your guide you could call upon
to help in matters pertaining to certain aspects of your
abundance journey.
The messages from your spirit helpers can take many
forms, from a deep insight, to a dream, to a physical
manifestation. There are two common ways to call for a
message. One is active and one is passive. Active calling
means that you are actively pursuing and asking for a
message. The second way is to be passive and open; wait
For example, you may ask that a guide help you who and watch the signs. There are advantages to each way.
is especially well-versed in finances if you are feeling
overwhelmed by your bills. You may also ask for a specific Praying
guide to help you in finding work that you will not only be
prosperous doing, but that will also fulfill you spiritually. Praying means to pray or speak from your heart to the
Divine. The words you use are less important than the
sincerity of your spirit. You can speak, chant, or sing
your prayers. You can call out loudly and plaintively. You
can silently invoke the Creator without words, directly
from your heart. You don’t need to be eloquent or explain
yourself. Be real. Be honest. Be sincere. To pray is to
actively ask for help and guidance.
When imploring for a message--either before, during or
after your card reading--you can call for guidance from
the Spirit realm to help you. A simple way to do this is
to say, “May the spirits, guides, ancestors and angels that
have gathered in peace, bring love and guidance for me
and help me to achieve the abundant life I so desire. I give
thanks for the help that is given. May what is received be
for the good of all.”
are giving us signs, but sometimes we get too busy to
recognize the wealth of guidance that is at our fingertips.
The most common way that these kind of messages
appear is through intuition, a spontaneous thought or
just an inner knowing. Messages don’t usually come as a
lightning-bolt realization but rather as a gentle emerging
awareness.
To encourage spiritual messages, be conscious of the
thoughts that float through your mind. Very often, the
simple exercise of watching your thoughts can provide
remarkable insights into your life and your future.
The advantage of being quiet and open is that you can
hear the whispers from spirit. If you’re the kind of person
who is constantly on the go and actively pursuing goals,
just sitting and being still can be an ideal way for you to
receive a message.
The advantage of praying lies in the action. If you’re the
kind of person who passively waits for opportunities to
come your way, and they don’t seem to ever come, then
taking action might be the best path for you. To manifest
your dreams, often you need to take action. Go for it.
The disadvantage of being still is that sometimes it creates

In every moment the universe and our spiritual helpers be dramatic and moving. No matter in what form the
message arrives for you, it expands the parameters of your
life.
It can come through the signs in the natural world around
you, your dreams, or even in a manifested
physical form. The form is less important
than how the messages feels. If it feels right, it
probably is.
Watch the Signs
One of the ways the Creator answers prayers
and gives messages is through signs. This is
why it’s so important to be still and to listen
and observe everything.
When you take time to really observe your
environment, you can discover something that
applies uniquely to your life.
If you’re unsure what the sign means, ask
yourself: “If I knew what this sign was telling
me, what might it be?” Often this can help you
decipher the sign. The visions and messages
that you receive through signs will continue to
expand throughout your life.
Your message can come as a direct
communication from the signs. In every
moment, Spirit’s whispering to you through
signs. Judge nothing. Be open to everything.
Watch. Listen. Feel. Signs will unfold around
you.

Tips on Using Feng Shui in Your Home
1. Auspicious front door
Your home is an outer manifestation of your inner energy
– your home should feel safe, secure, abundant and loving,
a sanctuary/haven. Plus, the entrance to your home is a
metaphor for your entire home and a powerful metaphor for
welcoming prosperity.
When you walk up to your front door, the emotional response
should be that of warmth and welcome. The entrance should be
clean, beautiful and inviting, the door shouldn’t be squeaky, with
dirty windows and overgrown shrubs. It should be well lit and
clean.
The entrance is an “energy greeter.” A favorite symbol of welcome
such as healthy plants, Buddhas, flowers, or any beautiful object is
an inviting energy.
The first thing you see, hear, smell when you open your front door
is important as it sets a template for the whole home.
If you open your front door and can see out of the back door, this
is not ideal. Finances can flow through the front door and out of
the back. The house should contain and hold energy
2. Expansive area in front of the house
An open, inviting area in front of your home creates an expansive
and wealthy vibration.
Dead plants, trees, shrubs or ill-kept lawns should be attended to
or replaced. The walkway to the house should gracefully approach
the doorway, no straight sidewalk is at all possible.
Abundant Tip: In feng shui, it’s not what is real, it’s what is
perceived.
3. Symbolic mountain in back
At the back of the home, there should be something that has some
height that gives the feeling of a supportive energy and protection.
Mountains represent wealth and stability. It also represents being
supported by business associates, family, and friends.
Not all homes have height behind them (trees, hills, taller
buildings), some have ravines or the lands drops away. However,
there are “cures” you can employ.
• Build a high solid wall at the back of your yard
• Build a high rock or brick wall
• Place a statue of a turtle (turtles represent wealth and
stability) in the backyard
• Plant trees that will grow taller than the roof
• Put lights in the back shining upward to give the
feeling of height behind the house
• Flagpoles
• High fences or a high sold wall
An executive at office may have high chair or picture of
mountain behind her, or at a restaurant, you’d probably
rather sit with the wall behind you than have the expanse
of the restaurant behind you. People like to have that
feeling of protection behind them. That symbolic energy
of a mountain will give you a stability and “groundedness”
for your finances.
representing water/a river of opportunity flowing into
this home.
b. The water must be coming into the home, not
flowing away from you.
c. When you’re working with water, have the intention
(because intention is everything) that this water is
activating even more abundance.
d. Ideas of water symbols: Pictures of oceans, rivers,
symbolic art, blue lava lamp with the intention of
water, home fountains (have the intention that more
and more abundance is flowing to you.).
e. Fish: (in feng shui eight golden goldfish and one
black goldfish is traditional ), a Zen aquarium.
f. Put a plug/shells/stones over open drains so that
water is not moving away from the home. You are
symbolically keeping wealth from flowing out of the
home.
g. Toilet seats should be closed to keep wealth from
literally flushing away.
2. Sailing ship picture or artwork in house are powerful
abundance attractors. Make sure sails are up as this
symbolizes the abundance the ship has gathered over time
is coming into shore. “Your ship has come in” refers to the
ship arriving, laden with goods and merchandise.

direct symbols of abundance. (The terms wallet, handbag,
purse and briefcase will be used interchangeably in this

e. Don’t disrespect the money in your purse – respect
even the coins and put them in the coins section
because lots of money starts with a small amount of
money.
f. Honor even the penny or dime you pick up and give
thanks because prosperity is flowing to you. If you stop
the flow in any area, even in a small area, it stops the
flow in a big area. If your bills are crumpled, uncrumple
them and lay them in some order.
g. Put a $100 bill in your wallet/purse, tuck it away
and don’t spend it. This represents feeling abundant
and having financial reserves when you need them.

heavens as your dreams are released skyward, carrying

Creating a Spirit Stick for Prosperity
Throughout history, shamans, have used spirit sticks in
their quest to connect with spirit. Spirit Sticks were used
for sending prayers to the Creator, healing, and to invite
vibrant energy into a space.
If you want a smooth finish, strip the stick of bark and
sand the stick with a coarse or medium grit sand paper to
reduce the rough spots. Go over the stick a final time with
a fine grit sand paper to make it smooth. Wipe it clean
with a damp cloth to move dust and debris.
Get creative! Paint designs, leave the wood natural, or any
combination of the above onto your spirit stick.
If you desire to paint your stick carefully choose the color.
If you want a natural wood color, rub the stick several
times with mineral oil and a soft cloth. It will slightly
darken but will preserve the look and bring out the natural
markings. Allow the stick to dry between applications.
You can stain your wood using a wood stain. Follow the
directions on your choice of stain.
Now, string beads onto leather cord or twine, leaving
enough at the end to add beads, embellishments or
feathers to, if desired. Add feathers to the end with the
beads and tie the cord, then use a bit of hot glue or craft
Your spirit stick may be created with the intention of glue to hold the feathers in place. Wrap the other end of

5.
Instead of “I will believe it when I see it,” your motto is,
“I will see it when I believe it.” Begin believing right now
that you can and will have an incredible future, no matter
how unlikely it may seem from where you are in your life
circumstances. And so it will be!
Exercise 1: DO Something!!!
Here are a few lists of things to DO. You have looked

action steps to take.
rearview mirror. Smile at your pets. Smile at everyone.
Give yourself five minutes a day to do nothing.
Yes, this is the action section, but doing nothing is
something. People who are fabulously wealthy have
time to do nothing. Imagine that you are so wealthy
you have time to do nothing.
Move your body every day as if you were fabulously
prosperous. Ask yourself, “How would I move if all
my needs were met?” and then move in that manner.
Be grateful. The more grateful you are for what you
have, the more abundance will flow into your life. Say
thank you - to yourself and others. Thank a co-worker,
spouse or friend even if they have done something
small and watch them glow!

abundance is determined by the five people you
spend the most time with. If these five people live in
poverty consciousness, it can be very difficult to step
into abundance.
List 2: Nuts and Bolts Way To Save Cold Hard Cash:
Here are a few steps you can take to IMMEDIATELY
increase your abundance
1. Request a reduction in your credit card interest rate.
Turn the card over and call that number on the back
and ASK. Better yet, have no credit card debt. Get
there as fast as you can and it can add hundreds of
dollar to your income each year.
2. Call you cell phone company and ask if they will
review your plan and determine if a different plan will
save you money.
3. While on the subject of phones, determine if you
can drop your land line, if you are already using a
cellphone. For most adults, it is possible, it can save
some money every month.
4. Call your health and car insurance and ask them to
review your plan to save you money, Be kind to the
customer service representative and it will flow back.
Deductibles can often be raised, but make sure it is
right for your needs before making changes.
5. Take advantage of customer rewards programs for
businesses you use often. Is Starbuck’s your weakness?
Join their rewards program. Fly a lot? Use one airline
as much as possible and keep up with the miles.
6. Use the library. They still exist and are more exciting
than you may remember. Many offer DVD, CD and
audio books lending now.
7. Tune-up your car (if you have one). Keep
the oil changed and air up the tires.
These simple maintenance tips
will help you get better gas
mileage and add years to the life
of the vehicle.
8. Look at your monthly bills
and get rid of what you do not use. Do you pay for
500+ channels on TV and watch the same four? Do
you belong to book clubs that you can quit? Gym
memberships you do not use? Take a long hard
look at your expenses and see where you can easily
cut back. This is especially true for the $9 here and
$10 expenditures you may have signed up for and
forgotten about, as it was “only” $9.
9. Look into an online savings program and sign up.
Make it automatic and easy and you will use it.
10.Bottle your own water. Use a good water bottle and
refill yourself.
11.Limit eating out. Period. Also, brown bag it if possible.
12.Pick up coins from the ground. They add up and
show respect for the energy of money.
13.Reduce your bills by simply asking
14.One of the most effective means of shaving money off
your expenditures is incredibly simple…just ask. Ask
if there is a discount for paying with cash, ask if that is
the best someone can do on the price, simply ask. The
worst that can happen is you will told “no.”
15.And last, but not least…use less of everything. A bit
less laundry detergent than the box says, a little bit
less toothpaste squeezed onto your toothbrush and a
lot less shampoo and conditioner. Does anyone really
need to wash their hair twice?
Day 20: Giving Back
going in the area in which you desire abundance. If you
want a home; give to the homeless, volunteer for Habitats

there will always be an equal or even opposite reaction.
Practice Unconditional Giving
–Isaac Newton’s Law of Motion.
Giving puts you into a positive mind state and when you’re
in a positive mind state, miracles will flow to you. Your
heart’s desires can begin to come in ways that you least
expect when you open up the flow and allow and accept.
Giving is one way to open your heart. Giving activates
the strength in you. It releases serotonin, dopamine and
oxytocin (the “feel-good” chemicals in the brain). Giving
strengthens the immune system, there is a reduction in
negativity, chronic hostility and even things that can
damage the body. There are an endless list of benefits
to every system in the body, all the glands and organs,
that are provided by the stress relief that you receive from
sharing.
• Giving with attachment can be an easy trap to fall
into. Practice giving without attachment. By attaching
conditions to your giving, you not only lessen the pleasure
you receive, you also diminish their human experience.
• Give anonymously. This will negate any opportunity
for you to expect anything in return. Bountiful ways
to give may be to put a note/card in a shopping cart:
“Whoever gets this cart next, I’m sending you blessings
for a wonderful day”. You may attach a dollar bill.
• When you can give with a full heart without expecting
anything back, it builds up your spiritual bank account –
it actually fills you spiritually. The giving isn’t so much for
the other person, it’s for you.
Ways to Give That Are Not Financial
• Share your time with the local school. Read to the
• Give in the area you want to receive: it gets the flow children, volunteer as a teacher’s aide.
Maximizing the Giving Experience
• Clutter clearing: clear out your closet and share the
contents with others. Bless the items with; “whoever will
use this, I gift you my love, my support, my blessings.”
• Contact your local hospice to be of support to the people
in their time of transition into spirit.
• If you’re creative, give your art/creative gifts to others.
• Be a volunteer at your local zoo, park, etc. • Be part of a literacy program , help others learn to read.
• Volunteer at an animal shelter and give energy, give love.
• Buy an extra item of food for your local food bank.
• Local children’s hospitals and community centers.
The Power of Receiving
• There’s a direct correlation between your ability to
receive and your ability to give without limits.
• True giving is where you give without any conditions. If you can’t receive, chances are that you have some
subconscious conditions on your giving. So if you really
want that flow to go, you need to be willing to receive.
When the Universe is gifting you, don’t feel unworthy or
that you don’t deserve it, just say, “Thank you!”
If someone pays you a compliment say, “Thank you so

Day 21: Step into Your Glorious,
Fabulous, Magnificent Abundant
Future!
Absorb the vastness into your soul. Become one with the
waterfall.
Every experience you have ever had, in this
life and others, is allowing you to evolve as an
abundant, bountiful being. Remind yourself
that everything is for your ultimate highest
good, even if you judge it as a bad, boring,
demeaning, or worthless experience. Bounced
checks, lost jobs, bankruptcies, poor choices
have all been put into your life to allow you
to learn and grow. Thank them for being the
invaluable teaching lessons they have been.
At its essence, the soul is unconditional love. When you
have cleared away inner and outer clutter, your capacity to
love yourself, love others, and love the Creator magnifies.
Today is a reminder of the fortunate, thriving, infinitely
growing and changing should who you are and who you
are continually becoming.
Then imagine yourself as the water at the bottom of
the waterfall. Still energized and empowered by the
movement of cascading over the precipice, you are now
completely and totally energetically shifted. You find
yourself surrounded by a circle of love. All around you
are people who love you, angelic beings, spirit guides,
animal allies, and wise ones from the realm of spirit. They
are radiating incredible love and healing energy to you,
as they stand around the pool of water that you have
become. Wave after wave of infinite, bountiful wealth and
riches of all types are flowing around, over and through
you. You are the strength, you are the force and you are
the contentment of the pool.
No matter where you are or what you do today— whether
you are walking, eating, working, talking, standing, or
sitting—remind yourself that at your core, you are love
and light. Physicists now agree with what ancient mystics
have always known: that your physical body is composed
of vast space. From a spiritual perspective, within this

being a rushing body of water to a cascading, powerful
waterfall.
Whenever you encounter anyone, visualize your waterfall
of abundance radiating from your heart to his or her heart.
Wherever you go today, let your waterfall of prosperity
flow out of you to animals, people, plants, trees, the
environment, homes, and everything. Do not tell anyone
what you are doing.
Exercise: Put Into Practice the Waterfall
Abundance Sharing
With the next person you encounter today, put into
practice sharing the energy of your waterfall of abundance.
Continue daily. Repeat for the rest of your life. Enjoy.
Allow your waterfall to infuse abundance to everyone and
everything around you. If you continue this practice past
today, your inner waterfall will grow in brilliance and
energy. Others will feel embraced by your presence and
will be energized by your energy of embracing the riches
of life.
