In this episode I am sharing 4 tips to improve your ability to receive.  Everyone wants to increase their feelings of abundance, increase their wealth, financial freedom, yet without the ability to receive what is already available in front of us, we will never hold more abundance. Receiving and giving are two sides of the same coin, and for many giving is easier than receiving.  Today I want to share the 4 key steps to receiving. In this episode we discuss:1)  Identifying the 4 blocks, people pleaser, hider, fighter or victim, and unpacking our responses, triggers and how this shows up in our lives.  Working through the NLP techniques, this requires healing this story and then shifting to seeing it all differently.  I invite you to take the Story Blocks Quiz, https://www.marshavanw.com/story-blocks 2) Identify what receiving means to you? Do you see that as a sign of weakness to ask for help?  Are you judging yourself for asking for help?  If you receive help does it mean that you can’t do it yourself? And does that interfere with your belief about independence? Be honest and break down the meaning of the word receiving, and how would your life change if you changed the definition of the word receiving? 3)  Practice every single day starting with the small things, when someone compliments you, says thank you and means it.  Don’t deflect, push it away or throw back a compliment to take the attention off of you, practice receiving it. 4) Let go of judgements, and give freely with no attachments or expectations of what you want or expect to receive.  The attachments or expectations only hurt you and block you from receiving what is available for you. 5) Identify your own self-worth stories, opinions or limitations because this is holding you back more than you may realize.  Receiving takes practice, consistency, repetition and NLP subconscious pre-programming tools.  Wherever you are blocking yourself in one area, you are blocking yourself in all areas of receiving.  This requires you to practice being present, recognizing your default patterns, Join the Rising Leaders Collectivehttps://marshavanw.com/rlcmDisrupt Your Default Patterns (10 day program starting in early March)https://www.marshavanw.com/offers/5zycUk2V Marsha Vanwynsberghe — Author, Speaker and Life CoachMarsha is the 6-time Bestselling Author of “When She Stopped Asking Why”.  She shares her lessons as a parent who dealt with teen substance abuse far past the level of normal experimentation.
