Money Regulates my Nervous System

Yup, there it is. I fucking said it. A “healer”, a “coach”, a “medicine woman” is saying that money regulates my nervous system.

I grew up thinking money was what was dysregulating my nervous system.

As I stepped into the healing communities and began my journey of healing it seemed like money was never spoken of. If a healer had a lot of money then they weren’t a “true” healer because true healers lived in poverty because your gift should’ve given freely.

Somehow Money and the Sacred were separate. And for some reason it was wrong to allow money to regulate your nervous system. So I went down so many different paths. Meditation, yoga, coaching, dancing charging for my services, not charging for my services, let my clients name their price to prove my trust in the Universe. And I came to a realization.

Money regulates my nervous system.

It’s a resource that we need in this world, just like food, water, shelter and Love. And I am no longer going to do somersaults to avoid that. When I have money in bank to pay my bills and play my nervous system is easier to regulate if it disregulates. When I don’t have money in my account to pay my bills and play, my nervous system is a fucking mess. And known not the only one!

So FUCK BEING “APPROPRIATE”!!

MONEY REGULATES MY NERVOUS SYSTEM!!

Now that I’ve cleared the air and have given myself permission to name what I actually need, I get to give myself what I need. I get to focus on gathering money and regulating my nervous system. No, Money is not the only thing that regulates my nervous system, but it is something my nervous system needs and I was refusing it. Not because of any other reason than that is what I thought the outside world wanted me to do.

This isn’t so much about money being what regulates my nervous, but more so about being able to name what regulates my nervous system without shame or judgement so I can give myself what I need freely.

So I want to ask you…what do you need that you aren’t being honest about? Perhaps as a child you were told it was wrong to need something or were made to feel shame about needing something to calm yourself? Let’s rewrite the script. As long as you aren’t hurting anyone, let’s practice radical self care. Giving ourselves what we need, no matter what. Because we deserve to have everything we need for a calm and regulated nervous system.

Sacred and Wild Love to you all!
