• True Wealth and Holistic Success
By Marie C. Barrett
True wealth is not just about money and financial success, it’s an holistic state of balance, a way of being, a state you enjoy through your feelings and experience. Holistic success embraces every aspect of life, spiritual, emotional, physical, and financial. True wealth means holistic success and balance across all the areas in your life that build up the fiber of your experience.
"Often, people tend to live their life backward. They try to have more things or more money in order to do more of what they want so that they will be happier. The way it actually works is the reverse. First you must be who you really are, then do what you need to do, in order to have what you want." – Shakti Gawain.
All the emotions and experiences of your life reach out for happiness. And what is happiness exactly? One definition of happiness is the free flow of Source Energy or Life Force through your being, enlivening and creating as it flows. Source Energy is divine love, power, joy, riches and intelligence and our ultimate happiness lies in our free access to and deep awareness of this Source Energy and our ultimate return to union with divine bounty and love.
One major aim in our journey through life is to achieve holistic wealth and balance in the following five key areas, for they embrace every aspect of our human experience:
- Spiritual Enlightenment
- Emotional Well-Being
- Meaningful Relationships
- Physical Health and Fitness
- Financial Abundance
When all these key areas are rich and full, you will attract and experience a wonderful flow of abundance, success and happiness. So let us take a brief look at each of these five major categories just mentioned.
In spiritual enlightenment, connecting to Source, we address the fundamental spiritual nature of all life. Understanding our innate spirituality is paramount to any in-depth study of holistic wealth based on the Law of Attraction. Exploring our connection to divinity and the science surrounding the Law of Attraction is the first stepping stone to wealth and holistic success. And from there, we discover how to integrate spirituality, Life Force Energy, into the rest of our experience of life.
In focusing on our emotional well-being we explore our emotions, feelings, and beliefs and how they relate directly to the Law of Attraction. As we understand the power and potential of our mind and emotions, we will be ready to cope with and build wonderful skills and outcomes in the area of meaningful relationships.
By integrating spirituality into our personal relationships, we discover how our inner world creates our outer experiences. Our inner attitude of acceptance and love of another directly influences how others relate to us and whether we enjoy our interaction with others or not. In this area of relationships in particular, we can easily change our experience by changing our inner attitudes. Others will be very quick to respond to any loving vibes coming their way. Creating success in relationships can be one of the most rewarding experiences of life.
True holistic wealth must embrace physical health and fitness,and this includes how to increase our self-esteem, attain excellent health and reach and maintain our body in peak condition. Pursuing optimum health and fitness based on spiritual awareness in our daily life can transform not only our physical body, but our whole attitude to the world around us.
“Wealth” often conjures up in the mind pictures of money, fast cars and property, and of course, financial abundance is a very important branch of holistic wealth. The Law of Attraction works brilliantly here, as in every other area of life, and by exploring different strategies and attitudes to achieve financial riches further empowers us to grow in awareness of who we are, why we are having this life experience and how we can contribute to the greater welfare of others.
Success, prosperity, love and happiness contribute to our holistic wealth and delight. Balanced thoughts and loving expectation, belief and focused action are the means we have at our disposal to turn our dreams into delightful reality. True wealth and holistic success start in the spiritual realm and filter into physicality through the awareness, desire and action we bring to every part of our life. Life may not be easy always, but it should have its moments of absolute delight, a foretaste of what the future holds.
