How to Use Conscious Budgeting to Manifest More Money & Abundance
It's time to reframe the thought process behind budgeting. For many of us, budgeting has always symbolized suppression, having less fun in order to save more, and being obscenely strict with our money — but my love, it's time to do away with that old (and totally not cute) view of budgeting.
Conscious budgeting (as I like to call it) encourages us to get to know our money flows in the same way that we know our own energetic flows, because after all: money is energy, too.
Now, for this week's money tip + journal questions:
CONSCIOUS BUDGETING 101 — MANIFESTING MONEY, HONEY!
Budgeting is really a way for you to gain transparency into your money flow by understanding where you spend and where you intend to save. A good budget reminds you of the power you have to capitalize on your divine birthright to abundance while being responsible and respectful with and to your money.
My top 4 Conscious Budgeting tips:
1. Use a sheet like excel/Google sheets (my fav!) to plan out your spending on non-negotiable and necessary expenses — these are things you MUST spend on to keep up with life, aka rent, car insurance, groceries, etc.
2. Make sure to include self-care in your budget, too! Being responsible and tracking money flows does not have to mean being boring and stopping yourself from enjoying life! Add in spending for things that make you happy and that help you relax. These items might look like getting your nails done, a trip to T.J. Maxx each month, or even a facial from an esthetician.
3. Let’s not be afraid to look at our budget sheets each week or bank account each day! Look at both often and express gratitude for your ability to pay your bills, spend on your self-care and keep up with your lifestyle. Calling in more abundance requires that you have a good grasp on your fortune now and also a good grasp on how to spend it wisely.
If you find you’re not grateful for $2K /month, how can you expect to call in $5K in a month?
4. Lastly know that spending money and giving money is natural! Hoarding it just to hoard it all only creates a block, as you're not allowing money to flow naturally in and out of your life. Don't allow your desire for more abundance to create the false belief that you must never spend in order to gain more.
