"A single word can speak volumes. A brief message can have a long and deep resonance. The essence of what we say is often lost or diluted in long sentences and more complicated explanations. But, a single word uttered in the right place at the right time will have a lasting effect. It therefore makes sense to pay close attention to the meaning and effect of each word and choose them accordingly. Each word carries it's own reverberations. Words are key to specific energies. They elicit actions and reactions, so it is important to pay attention to those that you choose." (Franziska Krattinger The Power of Switchwords: 67 Words To Reprogram Your Life)

Bringing Down the Pillars of the Scarcity Meditation

You have been drawn to this meditation because you are ready to leave behind those behaviors, attitudes, thoughts and beliefs that have stood in your way of realizing your full potential. 

The scarcity mindset believes that there is not enough of anything.There is not enough money, not enough food, not enough love, not enough togetherness, not enough harmony, not enough peace. 

When the scarcity mindset prevails within us, the world around us, which we co-create, is a world that aligns with the scarcity mindset thinking. We then experience feelings like helplessness, despair, jealousy, resentment, envy, suspicion, rage and fear. 

To free ourselves from the prison of the scarcity mindset we have to commit to changing our behaviours: everyday being mindful of all our words, our thoughts, our actions, our communications and our interactions. As soon as we realize that any or all of these are stemming from the old scarcity mindset, we must instantly move into a diametrically opposite behavior pattern that arises from the abundant mindset.

This mediation uses switchwords in order to help you transform some of the strongest pillars upon which the scarcity mindset is built. The transformation not only removes the pillars of the scarcity mindset, but begins to build and construct new pillars, upon which you can joyously create the temple of the abundance mindset.

Before you start this meditation, place your left hand upon your heart and your right hand upon your solar plexus and repeat after me… I commit wholly and entirely to making a full and complete shift away from the scarcity mindset in all areas of my life, and to move towards the construction of a strong abundance mindset using the power of my godself. I recognize my divine power, I have awakened to my spirit consciousness, I know who I am and I live with that consciousness. This is my commitment.

Place your hands now upon your crown chakra and your third eye chakra and close your eyes so that your vision is turned inward upon yourself and your divine aura. 

The scarcity mindset brings in fear, fear that stops you from making the changes that you know are required in your life. Fear that stops you from letting go of whatever does not work in your life. Let us chant the switchwords, so that the Pillar of Fear can collapse, and in its place shall rise the Pillar of Consciousness. The pillar of expansion of your consciousness. Let us chant these switchwords together ...

Now move the palms of your hands onto your solar plexus chakra. The Scarcity mindset engenders fear, and fear gives birth to limitation. We begin to believe that we are limited. That in some way, we do not have what it takes to succeed, to be happy, to be healthy and to allow ourselves to dream big and to attain those big dreams. These switchwords shall help you to bring down the Pillar of Limitation and to erect the Pillar of Self Empowerment. Self empowerment that recognizes the godself that you are. When you recognize your divine potential, you refuse to follow the old conditioned belief that there is not enough to go around. You recognize that there is more than enough to go around for every single living being on Earth. There is more than enough of everything. Let us chant these switchwords together …

Place your hands now upon your root chakra; or, if that is not possible, focus your third eye energy entirely upon the root chakra. Within this chakra lies the third pillar upon which the scarcity mindset resides. This is the Pillar of Lack. There are old ingrained beliefs that lack is a common human condition, that lack is a natural part of human existence. This is not true at all. There is no lack of anything. What others enjoy, you need not envy because you can have it all too. All that it requires from you is to change your mindset about lack. You are already rich, now. You must awaken to that fact. Let us chant these switchwords to destroy the Pillar of lack and construct the Happy Pillar of Prosperity…

When we believe in scarcity, when we believe in lack, we become filled with fear and this fear makes us inflexible. We hold on rigidly to everything that we have, even if what we have is not good for us. Let us chant these switchwords that help us to make the shift from inflexibility to adaptability. Place your hands upon your sacral chakra, so that you give yourself permission to flow, to let go of stubbornness, to let go of fear of change and to allow your life to be free of whatever does not work for you just now. Let us chant together …

Before we move any further, take a few moments to embrace yourself. Give yourself a warm hug because you are happy that you are ready to make this very important transformation. Praise yourself for finding the strength and the courage to do this. Love yourself. Hug yourself, warmly. 

You are now ready to move ahead.

Place one hand on your throat chakra and the other hand upon your heart chakra. Transformation can sometimes be challenging, and there might be many more moments when you might doubt yourself, or doubt this process of change. You might find yourself reverting to the known comfort of the scarcity mindset. You might find yourself believing that the transformation to the abundance mindset is a risky one, an unknown one, something you may doubt can work for you. To get over this hurdle, let us chant these switchwords together…

Crystal Horse Listen (repeat 5x)

I know that many times in your life you have felt completely disempowered. It might have been because of a relationship that did not love, respect and nurture you. It might have been because of those persons in your life who did not acknowledge you or hear you. It might have been because of a job or career that did not proceed in the way that you were hoping that it would. Disempowerment is fertile ground for the scarcity mindset to get even stronger. Where there is disempowerment happiness cannot exist. And when you are not happy, you tend to believe even more that there is not enough love in this world, not enough joy, not enough goodness, and not enough fulfillment. Let us chant these words together. Join the palms of your hands, near your heart chakra. Your hands are now in a namaste position. Expand your chest so that you are breathing in the largest volume of pure fresh air that you can. Let us chant together…

Smile as you chant this. Give yourself full permission to be happy. May the Pillar of Disempowerment come crashing down and disappear forever more.

There are times you have hesitated to say what you wished to say. You have forced yourself to bite your tongue and keep quiet. You have allowed people to believe that you are not worthwhile. You have not stopped others from abusing you and judging you. You often lie awake at night anxious about your future, feeling scared and insecure. This makes you turn to others for validation, for approval, for praise… and you often become who you are not so that others might give you this validation and praise. When you turn away from your authentic self, the insecurity you feel within increases. A secure, strong, grounded person is one who is filled with inner peace knowing that –I am who I am, and I am proud of who I am. I respect who I am. I live as who I am. I am enough. Let us chant these switchwords together so that the Pillar of Insecurity is eliminated and the strong Pillar of Inner Peace rises to take its place and support the abundance mindset.

Place one hand upon your left temple and the other hand upon your right temple. With these switchwords you are making vital changes in the frequencies of the waves emitted by your brain. When the left brain and right brain trust completely in your divine masculine and feminine principles, your life shifts from uncertainty to trust. When you trust completely in yourself and in the universe, you know without any iota of doubt or hesitation that the universe constantly conspires to fulfill all your needs, all your wants, your desires and dreams. You can stop thinking small. You can dare to dream large. You can begin to proceed very actively to fulfill all your desires without feeling any guilt and shame and uncertainty. Let us chant together these switchwords that help the brainwaves to change. As we do this our inner masculine and feminine energies come into perfect balance and you experience centeredness.

Yes, you have experienced jealousy and envy. There is no need to feel ashamed about these emotions. You do not need to feel guilty about this. You are not a bad person because you have often harbored jealousy and envy. Jealousy and envy bring to your awareness the presence of a strong scarcity mindset. Recognize these feelings. Acknowledge them without any guilt or shame and let us chant these switchwords together so that we flow with life, allowing life to bring us all that is good and wonderful for us to experience, giving life the permission to move us in the direction of our life purpose and soul mission. When we move in the direction of our soul purpose, there is no jealousy and envy left anymore because there is an instant awareness that each one has in their lives all that they need to fulfill their unique diving potential. Let us chant together while you place your hands, once again, upon your sacral chakra…

Yes, Open, Flow, Receive (repeat 5x)

We are now ready to bring down the last, but what sometimes is the strongest pillar of the scarcity mindset. This is the Pillar of Victimhood, often unknown to us. We enjoy the state of victimhood. We believe it brings us the attention that we are seeking. Sometimes even as we pray for good health, for happiness in our lives, for successful jobs and careers, for relationship harmony –we in fact do not wish to move in that direction because lack of health, sadness in life, relationship struggles and defeats at work brings towards us those who sympathize with us, who embrace us, and desire to be there in our lives to take care of us, to protect us, to set things right for us. We feel supported by this and we are unwilling to shift out of this state of existence because we are getting the attention that the inner child is seeking. Victimhood is seductive. And it tempts us all. The inner victim is a strong voice within the inner child. It supports and fuels the scarcity mindset. But you and I have committed toi shift from the scarcity mindset. And, so today you are ready to bring down the pillar of victimhood. To take charge of your life. To grow up. To become spiritually mature. To be responsible for yourself even while you enjoy support from others. 

Let us chant these switchwords… 

Restore, Love, Trust, Keep, Rock (repeat 5x) 

Before opening your eyes, once again, embrace yourself lovingly and warmly. Accept everything about yourself. When you accept it, you are also ready to let it go, when it does not serve you any longer. Accept everything about yourself. I love you. I love you. I love you. 

You can now open your eyes to abundance. 

Namaste
