Let’s talk about gratitude and unlocking abundance
Too often my clients will come to me and they will say:
“Vicki I’m so stuck, I don’t know where I’m going, I don’t know how to unlock abundance from within. How can you help me?”
The first thing I do is ask them where they are on the emotional guidance scale, Are you really stuck? Are you really frustrated? Are you really in a space of hopelessness or are you ready for your up level? Because sometimes what happens is the energy gets stuck where you are, because your ego doesn’t want you to move forward.
How can you move forward if you’re stuck in the past where you can’t ultimately. So what we do is look at where you are really, not where you think you are, not where you believe you are, but where you really are. One way we do that is by looking at all the things you are already grateful for in your life. You see abundance loves gratitude and sometimes life can get so overwhelmingly complicated that you forget to tune into all the things that you already have in your life that are already abundant.
So I wanted you to bring your attention in this moment right now to just think about all the things in your life that you’re already abundant with, whether it be the carpet under your feet, the slippers, whether it be the curtains in your home, the roof over your head, the car that gets you from A to B. The money that is flowing in and out.
There are always things around you that you’re already abundant with.

Tune into that abundance that already exists because when you open your mindset to seeing what you already have, by being grateful for what you already have, by tapping into the gratitude for the abundance that already flows to you. That is when you can step into more abundance.
Have you connected with your own inner abundance today or are you still stuck in the, I don’t have enough. I’m not enough mindset. Go grab a journal, pick up a pen and paper and actually start writing. What am I grateful for? List them out? How does that gratitude make you feel? Does it make you feel confident? Does it make you feel content? Does it make you feel loved? Does it make it make you feel excited?
Because you’ve got yourself stuck in this mindset of not having enough and all of a sudden you’re starting to recognize that you are enough. You do have enough and gratitude can catapult your success if you let it. I wanted to start the first podcast on gratitude.
Gratitude is something that gets completely dismissed when you are stressed, tired, overworked overrun listening to the kids, you’ve got the housework to do, You’re trying to run a business, You’re trying to be creative, you’re trying to do all the things in the world. Keep fit, live healthy. Make sure you smile, be positive and all that crazy stuff that goes on in day to day life.
What if you didn’t have to do that anymore?
What if you didn’t have to stay in that stressed out mindset anymore? What if all you had to do? Can you give yourself permission to take a step back and say today, I’m really grateful for all that I am, all that I have and all that I aspire to be. Yeah, tune into that energy. Make it a habit set reminders on your phone, do whatever it is you need to do even if it’s just for today.
You can tap into a magnetic abundant success by tuning in to all the ways you are already magnetic and abundant. Now it’s your time. Say you know what I am enough, I have enough. I’d be enough. I do enough. I am enough. And then you get an opportunity to say I can release all this stress and pressure now because I am enough. What would it mean for you to be enough? What would it mean for you to finally say I don’t have to live under that mindset anymore.
How amazing would it be for you, to just live in that state of gratitude to find little pockets of moments during the day when you can look down and say:
- I’m grateful for that pen.
- I’m grateful for all that I have.
- I’m grateful for all that I’ve aspired to be.
- I’m grateful for the journeys that I’ve overcome.
- I’m grateful for the paths that I have in front of me.
- I’m grateful for choices.
- I can find gratitude in everything.
BE MINDFUL OF TOXIC POSITIVITY!
Okay, before we go any further, let’s not fall into the trap of toxic positivity.
I’m not talking about denying your feelings and I’m not talking about brushing your feelings under the carpet because we don’t do that.
What we do is we acknowledge how we feel and then look at the things you’re grateful for.
For example, now, I don’t know if you’ve ever heard of it, but E. F. T. Is one of my favourite modalities of all time. Because it’s easy, it’s quick and my goodness, it’s so powerful. So I might be having a really crap day, right? And then I’ll just start tapping on my collarbone. Or I’ll go around the tapping points in my body and I’ll just repeat. I feel angry. I feel stressed, I feel tension, I feel under pressure. All this pressure that I’m feeling and I just connect with what I’m feeling and I tap on that feeling and when I’m tapping on on the points of my body and I’m repeating what I’m feeling. My feelings are being heard when your feelings are being heard you’re subconsciously healing your inner child.
When you subconsciously heal your inner child, you’re giving yourself permission to acknowledge that you are human and you can shift how you feel in the moment. It’s almost like re parenting yourself, you are finding comfort in acknowledging that you are human being by having emotions and giving yourself permission to just feel them but not stay stuck with them.
Give it a go. Let me know how you feel.
But just for today, tap on the collarbone, you can do it with me. Tap on your collar bone and just repeat.
“Even though some days I can just get so stressed out that I forget how abundant I really am, I’m grateful for all the abundance I welcome into my life today and every day”
Now you can take that and you can repeat it 100 times over or you can ignore it and never have to do a tapping on your collarbone ever again. It’s entirely up to you. There is no force or push or anything or expectations. But you know, little tips like that can go a really long way when you’re having a really sh*t day.
Today you can choose to be grateful. You can choose to find gratitude in your heart for everything. You already have everything you aspire to be, everything you’ve already overcome, how far you’ve already travelled and I’ll see you in the next episode. Bye bye for now
