I Am Getting Curious About ABUNDANCE.
As you may have seen, everyone and their mamas are talking about abundance and how we should attract it. Quite frankly, I have been seeing this abundance talk for years.
Manifest abundance.
You are abundance.
Attract abundance.
Abundance lifestyle.
Abundance. Abundance. Abundance.
WTF IS ABUNDANCE?
I feel as there is so much verbiage around abundance, but I do not hear much chat about what abundance is in a way that can be embodied or perhaps I keep missing those posts.
By definition, abundance is: a very large quantity of something.
Abundant is: existing or available in large quantities; plentiful.
I decided to get curious about abundance because as much as I mentally understood abundance and what it is, I could not feel it in my body.
Two individuals who are helping me understand abundance in a spiritual way, on a cellular level are Amber Janae and Sarah Faith Gottesdiener. Amber has a great article that you can read here.
One thing that I do know is that abundance is not the amount of money one has in the bank AND money (as well as physical items) can reflect the abundance one has. Confusing, I know. Essentially, money is not an end all be all marker for abundance because someone can be financially abundant and emotionally or spiritually bankrupt.
I have come up with non-exhaustive list of ways that one can be abundant that doesn't fully revolve around money:
Love
Natural food (think fruits + vegetables)
Skills
Talents
Knowledge
Spirituality
Energy
So, how to embody abundance? I cannot fully answer that as of yet, but I came up with a few questions that are helping me to explore abundance some more based on what I have read from Amber Janae and Sarah Faith Gottesdiener. Perhaps they can be helpful for you too.
What does a life full of luxury and abundance look like for me?
Why do I feel that I do not need luxury or abundance?
How am I RECEIVING (including right people and right opportunity)?
Is my attitude blocking doors or opening new ones?
Do I see myself as someone worthy or deserving of living a life of comfort, abundance and luxury?
Who am I becoming/moving into becoming/aligning with becoming in order to move into a future I want to exist in?
Where is abundance accessible now?
Where can I experience abundance in my day to day life?
How can I experience time in abundance?
What do I want in abundance in my life?
How can abundance improve my quality of life/mental health/spiritual connection/etc.?
I would love to know your thoughts and any revelations that might have come to you as you journaled about the answers to these questions (or even how you felt reading them)!
