Welcome to another Happy Snack at Noon, the 6 Figure Academy’s weekly live “snacks” where we talk about money flow, mindset optimization, or more importantly, life mastery around happiness.

This week, we’re going to be talking about the biggest money blocks we all have and to start, I want everyone to imagine themselves kneeling by a pond and preparing to scoop up some dirty water to drink. You’re probably thinking, “Gross! Why would you do that?” But I’m thinking, “It’s water, one of the most important elements of life. Shouldn’t all water be good?” The answer, of course, is no. I’ll get dysentery or a really bad stomachache. The point of this example is that money, like water, is just another form of energy. When we know that it’s dirty or tainted we act differently around it. When we’re working with dirty money (similar to drinking dirty water), it can affect how we feel about ourselves. Are we going to purposefully cause ourselves to be sick? So the biggest money block that I’ve found people have has to do with our mental and emotional health.

What we’ve found at The 6 Figure Academy is that the fastest way to resolve your money blocks and increase money flow consistently is to keep our mental and emotional health in check. When I work with clients and students, I’ve noticed that after working on their well-being, not only are their money problems solved but their happiness improved even more.

When you get a handle on your mental and emotional health, here’s what happens in your brain:

It becomes clearer and easier to think about why you want to make money. Why do you want to overcome your money blocks? Money is actually a facilitator to a happier lifestyle.

You use money to contribute to society, to acquire things, etc. How you use money is unique to each person, so if you’re not clear with what happiness is in your life, then you’re going to use your money in a haphazard way. Something I’ve noticed a trend at The 6 Figure Academy: People seem to be less concerned about money and more concerned with improving their mental and emotional health. It’s been amazing to see this because the by-product of that is that your money blocks are handled and your bad money stories become a thing of the past.

Let me reiterate: it’s NOT about the money.

When your mental and emotional health is in a good place, the money responds better. Think about the last time you were around somebody who was anxious, depressed, or negative. If they’re not someone you’re close to (such as a family member or friend), then you don’t want to be around them right? That negative energy also affects money too. You won’t attract finances or happiness. If money was personified, it’s going to run away and not want to be part of your life. So if you’re dealing with money blocks, it’s simply because the money is response to your mental and emotional health.
