My husband’s commute was long and his shift work kept him away from home for 12 hours at a time. As a young wife, in an effort to help alleviate stress on him, I decided it would be best if I took care of the finances. 

I was very organized and made sure all the bills were paid on time, including our tithing. The money never seemed to stretch far enough. It was so stressful and I was constantly concerned about money issues. For my mental health, I had to turn that responsibility over to him.

There is such a thing as money anxiety—it’s when you can’t stop stressing about money, and it affects your daily life and the decisions you make.

It involves a constant worry about whether you will have enough money to pay your bills, purchase groceries, or afford a social outing. It can lead to decision paralysis, where you are so afraid of making the wrong decision regarding money, that you end up not making any decision at all—which only makes things worse.

Money anxiety can even impact your physical and mental health, and can lead to hopelessness and despair.

To ease anxiety around money, it helps to address both the emotional stress you’re carrying and the practical aspects of your finances.

· Knowledge is power. Educate yourself on how to manage money. This will empower you and reduce those feelings of helplessness.

· Create a budget that is realistic for your needs. Include savings for emergencies.

· Set financial goals so that your financial challenges will be more manageable.

· Ask for help from family, trusted friends, or professionals. There are financial advisors and therapists who can help you.

· Use Doses of Enlightenment to help clear emotional stress and reduce fear so you can think more clearly and feel more grounded.

If you find yourself constantly worried about money, know that change is possible. A thoughtful plan and emotional support can bring real relief. Start by saying the Dose of Enlightenment below.

With love,

Today’s emotion is: overly concerned about money issues

How does this emotion apply to you? For best results, ponder this question and identify how overly concerned about money issues applies to you.

Dose of Enlightenment: 70 + 930 = E
