πΏWhy We Want Money… But Aren’t Always Ready to Receive It
![]() |
It’s one of the biggest mysteries in personal finance and manifestation:
You say you want more money. You pray for it, work for it, visualize it…
So why isn’t it showing up?
The truth is both simple and profound:
You may consciously want money, but subconsciously not be prepared to receive it.
π¬I spent years wanting more money, yet somehow always sabotaging my progress — until I realized my subconscious was terrified of abundance.
This doesn’t make you flawed.
It makes you human.
In this blog, we’ll explore why so many of us desire abundance yet still energetically reject it — and how hidden belief systems shape our entire financial reality.

| Conscious vs subconscious money beliefs |
π¬This topic is deeply personal for me. For a long time, I couldn’t understand why money felt so unpredictable in my life — until I discovered how my own nervous system reacted to abundance.
1. Money is energy, not math
On the surface, money looks logical:
work → earn → save → spend.
But on a deeper level, money responds to energy, emotion, and identity.
Why money doesn’t feel safe to the subconscious
If your subconscious associates money with:
-
fear
-
conflict
-
loss
-
guilt
-
stress
-
abandonment
-
responsibility you don’t feel ready for
…then money doesn’t feel safe.
πMoney flows where your nervous system feels safe.
And what doesn’t feel safe is naturally pushed away — even if you’re trying to pull it in.
Money responds to energy, emotion, identity — and even your environment.
Surrounding yourself with things that make you feel abundant helps rewire the subconscious.

2. Early money conditioning shapes adult financial alignment
As children, we absorb money beliefs without question.
Maybe you heard:
-
“Money doesn’t grow on trees.”
-
“We can’t afford that.”
-
“Rich people are greedy.”
-
“Life is hard.”
-
“Money causes problems.”
-
“Wanting more is ungrateful.”
These messages become internalized rules.
Now, as an adult, your conscious mind says:
π “I want financial freedom.”
But your subconscious whispers:
π “More money will cause trouble.”
This creates an energetic tug-of-war inside your body.
3. The nervous system resists what feels unfamiliar
Even abundance can feel unsafe when your baseline has always been:
-
survival mode
-
scarcity
-
just getting by
-
watching others stress about money
Your nervous system prefers:
familiar discomfort → over unfamiliar abundance.
Signs your nervous system rejects money
This is why someone might:
-
lose money right after gaining it
-
overspend when things start going well
-
avoid opportunities
-
undercharge
-
not apply for better jobs
-
freeze during growth πΏYou don’t fear lack — you fear abundance that feels unfamiliar.
Your nervous system isn’t sabotaging you —
it’s protecting you from what feels unfamiliar.
4. You might want money… but not what comes with it
Examples of hidden money fears
Many people secretly fear:
-
responsibility
-
expectations
-
visibility
-
judgement
-
change
-
attention
-
outgrowing loved ones
-
losing relationships
So they unknowingly block opportunities that would elevate them.
You think you fear lack.
But sometimes you fear abundance more.
