Money Is Energy, and Here is Why.

We live in a world where money is often viewed through a singular lens: as currency, as paper, as numbers on a screen. But what if I told you that money is so much more than that? What if money isn't just a physical object, but an energetic force—a mirror of your internal landscape, your beliefs, your patterns, and your capacity to receive?

This isn't just a spiritual musing. It's an energetic truth. When you begin to see money as energy, something magical happens. You stop chasing it and start attracting it. You stop fearing it and begin respecting it. You stop seeing lack and begin embodying abundance. Let’s explore how this energetic shift can reshape your relationship with money and, by extension, your relationship with yourself.

The Dual Nature of Money

Money is both material and immaterial. On one level, it pays your rent, puts food on the table, and keeps the lights on. But on a subtler level, money is a representation of your time, your energy, your decisions, and your boundaries.

When you show up to your job, trade your skills, or offer your services, you’re not just exchanging time for money—you’re transferring energy. You are literally infusing your gifts and labor with life force, and money is the vessel through which that exchange becomes visible.

The way you relate to money reveals how you relate to energy itself. Do you respect your time? Do you overgive without replenishment? Do you receive with grace or guilt? Do you allow money to flow in, or do you cling to it tightly out of fear?

Emotional Currency: How Your Feelings Shape Financial Flow

Emotions are currency. Every emotion has a vibrational frequency. Fear, shame, and guilt are low vibrations. Joy, gratitude, and trust are high vibrations. When you relate to money through the lens of fear—"There’s never enough," "I don’t deserve this," "I’m bad with money"—you lower your energetic frequency. That doesn’t mean abundance can’t find you, but it does mean you’ll be less likely to recognize or sustain it when it does.

Think about how you feel when you open a bill or check your bank account. Does your body tense? Does your heart race? Do you avoid it altogether? These emotional reactions carry an energetic signature that influences your reality. If money is energy, and you’re consistently approaching it from a place of resistance, fear, or avoidance, the energetic message you're sending is, "I don’t trust money. I don’t feel safe with money."

On the flip side, when you begin to approach money with reverence, openness, and curiosity, you start to rewrite your energetic blueprint. You tell the Universe, "I’m ready to receive. I’m a safe place for abundance."

The Energetic Cost of Underearning and Overgiving

Many of us—especially women and those from marginalized communities—have been conditioned to see self-sacrifice as a virtue. We give and give and give, pouring from an empty cup, expecting that our goodness will eventually be rewarded. But energetically, this is a setup for burnout and resentment.

When you consistently undercharge, overdeliver, or fail to advocate for your financial needs, you're sending a signal that your energy has no value. That you're not worthy of compensation. That your time and gifts are disposable. This is not just a mindset issue—it’s an energetic misalignment.

The truth is, you teach others how to treat you by how you treat yourself. When you set clear energetic boundaries around your time, your work, and your rates, you create a container that honors your worth. And when you do that, money begins to flow more freely because you’ve created the energetic infrastructure to hold it.

Money and the Nervous System

We can’t talk about energy without talking about the nervous system. If your body doesn’t feel safe receiving, it will reject abundance—even if you intellectually desire it. This is why people can manifest sudden windfalls and lose them just as quickly. Their nervous system isn't calibrated to hold the frequency of wealth.

Your money habits are not just behavioral; they’re physiological. Overspending, hoarding, financial avoidance—these are all coping mechanisms rooted in dysregulation. Healing your relationship with money, therefore, requires healing your relationship with your body. Practices like breathwork, somatic experiencing, and nervous system regulation aren’t just self-care—they’re energetic hygiene for abundance.

Abundance Beyond the Bank Account

Here’s something radical: wealth is not confined to money. You can be financially rich and spiritually bankrupt. You can have millions in your bank account and still live in scarcity.

Abundance is multidimensional. It includes your relationships, your health, your time, your creativity, your sense of purpose. When you begin to notice and cultivate abundance in these non-monetary areas, you become a magnet for wealth of all kinds.

Pause right now and ask yourself: Where am I already rich? Where is abundance already flowing in my life?

This shift from scarcity to sufficiency is powerful. It doesn’t mean you settle. It means you operate from a foundation of enoughness, which makes you more receptive to aligned opportunities and prosperity.

Receiving is an Energetic Skill

Most people struggle with receiving, not earning. We say we want more money, more freedom, more ease—but when it shows up, we deflect, downplay, or sabotage it. Why? Because receiving is vulnerable. It requires trust. It requires letting go of control. It requires being seen.

Receiving is an energetic skill. It’s the ability to say yes without guilt. To hold joy without waiting for the other shoe to drop. To let in love, support, and abundance without questioning your worthiness.

The next time someone offers to help, pays you a compliment, or sends you a blessing—pause. Breathe. Receive it fully. This small act of energetic expansion tells the Universe: "I’m ready for more."

Aligning With the Frequency of Wealth

You don’t attract what you want. You attract what you are in energetic resonance with. If you want to experience more abundance, you must embody the energy of abundance now.

Ask yourself:

  • How would I move through the world if I already felt financially secure?

  • What decisions would I make if I trusted that money always flows back to me?

  • How would I treat myself if I believed I was inherently worthy of wealth?

Let these answers guide your daily actions. This is not about toxic positivity or pretending you’re a millionaire when you’re not. It’s about aligning your energy with the truth that abundance is your birthright—and then making choices that reinforce that truth.

Money as a Mirror

Ultimately, money is a mirror. It reflects your patterns, your fears, your desires, your beliefs. If you want to change your financial reality, you must be willing to look in the mirror with honesty and compassion.

Ask yourself:

  • What stories am I telling myself about money?

  • Whose beliefs about money am I carrying?

  • Where am I leaking energy in my finances?

  • Where am I blocking the flow of abundance?

These questions aren’t meant to shame you—they’re meant to illuminate. To bring what’s unconscious into the light so you can choose differently. So you can write a new story, one rooted in sovereignty and soul.

Embodied Wealth: A Daily Practice

Changing your relationship with money isn’t a one-time event. It’s a practice—a daily dance between intention and attention. Here are a few ways to begin embodying the energy of wealth:

  1. Start a Money Ritual: Light a candle, play soft music, and spend 10 minutes reviewing your finances with gratitude. Speak affirmations like, "Money is a tool for my expansion" or "I am a safe place for wealth to land."

  2. Track Your Receipts of Abundance: Did someone treat you to coffee? Did you receive a compliment, a referral, a moment of joy? Write it down. Train your brain to recognize wealth in all its forms.

  3. Set Energetic Boundaries: Notice when you’re giving from depletion or obligation. Reclaim your time and energy. Say no with love. Say yes with clarity.

  4. Invest in Alignment: Spend your money in ways that feel aligned with your values. Buy from small businesses, support creators, invest in your growth. Let your spending be a vote for the world you want to live in.

  5. Regulate Your Nervous System: When financial stress arises, pause. Breathe. Move your body. Tap. Don’t make decisions from a place of panic. Make them from a place of power.

Here’s the most powerful truth of all: You are the source of your abundance. Not your job. Not your partner. Not your savings account. You.

When you realize that money flows through you—not to you—you stop outsourcing your power. You stop waiting to be rescued. You begin to co-create with the Universe, moving from scarcity to sufficiency, from fear to faith.

So today, I invite you to step into a new paradigm. To see money not as a problem to solve, but as a relationship to nurture. Not as a goal to chase, but as a frequency to embody.

Abundance is already here. It’s in your breath, your heartbeat, your presence. All that’s left is to receive it.
