Okay, let’s just dive in and talk about money. Money, money, money… you know, it’s a huge taboo, especially in our spiritual circles. But why is it so important, so absolutely crucial, that we talk about it?

Because there comes a point in your journey when spirituality is no longer just a hobby. It’s not just something you read in a book or a practice you do on the weekend at your yoga class. When you truly want your personal development—the deep work with your soul and your being—to expand into all areas of your life, then, my friend, money comes into play. We just can’t avoid it.

We live in a society that is deeply, deeply connected to and conditioned by money. Sooner or later, your spiritual path is going to collide with this material reality, because the experiences you want to have and the impact you want to make in this physical world are tied to it.

This becomes so, so intense for those of us with a calling to serve, to guide, to heal others. I know so many spiritual entrepreneurs, healers, and guides who have enormous problems with money. The conflict is real, and it shows up in very specific ways. See if this sounds familiar:

• You struggle to put a price on your work. You feel a real tension when it comes to monetizing your gifts or your spiritual service.
• You don’t ask for what’s fair. It feels uncomfortable asking for compensation that reflects the true value of what you offer. It feels… wrong, somehow.
• You’re afraid to create higher-value offers. The idea of launching a retreat, a coaching program, or any service that requires a bigger investment from the client just paralyzes you.
• You feel an inner tension. The moment you have to talk about money, think about your finances, or negotiate a price, you feel your body tense up. You look for any excuse to avoid the conversation.

If any of this is hitting home for you, you’re not alone. Believe me. But these are just the surface-level symptoms of a much, much deeper conflict.

The Real Conflict: The War Within Yourself

This is the root of the problem, and believe me, it’s a big one. The reason you feel that inner friction, that tension, is because one part of you wants money, but another part of you is actively rejecting it.

You might be thinking, “Pablo, what are you talking about? There’s nothing I want more than money. I want to be free, to travel, to live the life I’ve always dreamed of!” And yes, I hear you. That part of you is telling the truth.

But you have to be honest with yourself. If you can’t talk about money without feeling tense, if you can’t set a price for your services without your stomach turning, if you can’t even think about your finances without a wave of stress washing over you… it means there is a conflict.

A part of you is fighting against it.

To overcome your money blocks, you must first be willing to meet and understand this hidden part of yourself—the part that is avoiding money. You have to find out why it’s pushing abundance away.

Decoding the Energy of Money: It’s Not What You Think

So, to understand what you’re rejecting, we first have to understand what money is. And I’m not talking about paper or numbers on a screen. Money is a physical representation of a very specific, very powerful energy.

Think of it as the energy of the Sun.

In the shamanic tradition, this energy is connected to our third chakra, the Solar Plexus or Manipura, which is the center of our personal power. Its core qualities are:

• Vitality & Activity: It’s the force that gets you out of bed in the morning, the drive to move, the spark of life itself.
• Creation: It’s the raw power to bring ideas into the material world, to build, and to manifest.
• Confidence & Personal Power: It is the energy of self-worth and the ability to stand in your own authority, to own your life.

And here is the key insight, the big realization: You might not be rejecting money itself, but the essential qualities that are inherent to it. The things that come with money are what that hidden part of you is truly afraid of.

The Three Hidden Blocks to Your Abundance

Okay, now we get to the core of it. If you are rejecting the energy of the Sun—the energy of money—it will show up in your life as a resistance to one or more of these three fundamental qualities.

Block 1: The Fear of Responsibility

More money often means more responsibility. Responsibility for your clients, for your projects, for your team, and ultimately, for your own life. And this is a huge, huge block for many people.

You have to be brutally honest with yourself here. Ask yourself: How do you feel when something depends 100% on you? Is it something that brings you joy, that inspires you? Or is it something that generates resistance, that you try to avoid at all costs?

When a client comes to you with a deep trauma or a difficult problem, and you commit to helping them, you are taking on a great responsibility. When you host a retreat and people invest thousands of dollars to spend five days with you, you are responsible for their entire experience. Of course, you can’t control their inner journey, but you are absolutely responsible for the container you create—the lodging, the excursions, the practices.

If you find yourself constantly blaming others, or the government, or the economy, or your family for the problems in your life, you are avoiding responsibility. You’re saying, “The failures in my life are not mine.” This is a perfect, exact formula for having financial problems, because when you reject responsibility, you are rejecting the very energy of money.

Block 2: The Desire for Passivity

Here, my friend, lies a great paradox. So many people want money… so they can finally do nothing. They want the energy of action so they can lie on a couch and have others handle things for them.

Think about it for a second. It’s crazy, you know? You are asking for the energy of vitality (money) so that you can be more passive. You are asking for the energy of the Sun so you can live in the shade. This creates a massive internal conflict.

Look at your relationship with activity and vitality in your daily life.

• Is getting up in the morning easy for you, or is it a difficult struggle?
• Is exercising a source of joy or a constant battle?
• Do you have a proactive attitude, or do you find yourself defaulting to a passive one on the sofa, escaping into movies, video games, or drama?

The people who are not just wealthy, but truly free with money—the ones who have what they need and enjoy it without living in a state of scarcity—they are active, committed people. They move. You see these successful entrepreneurs; the first thing they talk about is their morning routine, hitting the gym, taking a cold shower. Activity is directly connected to the energy of the Sun.

Your resistance to living an active, vital life is another primary source of your conflict with money.

Block 3: The Aversion to Adventure & Risk

The energy of your personal power, your Solar Plexus, is fundamentally linked to adventure and the willingness to take risks. A risk is simply investing your energy into something without a 100% guarantee of the outcome.

Money flows where there is a willingness to step out of the comfort zone.

Every adventure has an element of risk. Imagine you want to climb a mountain to see the incredible view from the summit. That’s your goal. But you don’t know what will happen along the way. It might rain, you might have to walk through mud, it might get cold, or a friend might give up, and you’ll have to continue alone. But you accept this risk for the potential reward.

Now, look at your life. You say you want money, but do you reject adventure and risk?

• When a friend invites you on an impromptu trip to Peru to work with shamans, do you feel the call of adventure, or do you immediately think, “Oh, that sounds dangerous… the jungle, the spiders… what could happen?” and retreat to your comfort zone?
• When you’re invited to a free-form dance event, do you join in, or do you worry, “What will people think of me?” and stay on the sidelines?
• When you see that person you’re attracted to at a party, do you go for it, or does the fear of rejection keep you home with Netflix?

If a part of you consistently chooses comfort over adventure, and safety over risk, you are creating a direct conflict with the energy of abundance.

The Solution: From Resistance to Inspiration

So, what’s the solution? The path forward isn’t about forcing yourself to do things you hate. It’s about identifying which of these energies—Responsibility, Activity, or Adventure & Risk—you have the most resistance to, and then transforming that resistance into genuine inspiration.

Think about someone who is deeply committed to their physical health. At the very beginning, going to the gym might have felt like a chore. They had to fight through layers of laziness and resistance. But now? They don’t go because they have to; they go because they want to. They need it. They are inspired by it. If you ask them to skip the gym to watch a movie, they’ll say, “No way, I’m going to the gym!”

This is the exact transformation you are aiming for. The goal is to work through your resistance until you are no longer forcing yourself to be active, to take responsibility, or to embrace adventure. The goal is to become genuinely inspired by these things.

When you feel inspired by taking on a new challenge (responsibility), when you feel inspired to get your body moving (activity), and when you feel inspired to say “yes” to a new experience (adventure), your internal conflict dissolves.

And when that happens, your relationship with money heals itself. It stops being a taboo, a source of pain, or a dark spot in your life. You begin to feel inspired and joyful when you talk about money, think about it, receive it, and give it.

Are You Ready to Master Your Financial Energy?

If this article resonated with you, and you feel that deep down, it’s finally time to overcome these blocks, then it’s time to act.

My name is Pablo, and at Inner Spark Coaching, I’ve spent years helping people just like you develop their vitality and personal power through individual sessions, coaching, and retreats. Working with the energy of money is one of the central themes in our coaching program, designed specifically for spiritual healers and guides who are ready to align their purpose with their prosperity.

We do this work using a complete 7-chakra framework that helps you build your spiritual business from the ground up:

• Chakra 1 (Root): We build the essential, material, and technical foundation of your business.

Do You Feel Called to the Shaman-Healer’s Path?

Have you ever felt a deep urge to heal others? To awaken consciousness? To serve as a channel for something greater?

If you’re here, reading this, there’s a good chance that this path is calling you. The path of the Shaman-Healer.

But let’s be clear—this isn’t a journey you can embark on just anywhere, and definitely not with just anyone. Real transformation requires a sacred space, the right guidance, and deep commitment.

There are three fundamental pillars that every Shaman-Healer must embrace. These three elements shape your journey, your power, and your ability to serve as a true vessel for healing.

Before we dive into them, there’s something important you need to know…

The Truth About Transformation: Patience is Key

We live in an age of instant gratification. Click a button, and it’s done. Order something, and it arrives the next day.

But spiritual transformation doesn’t work like that.

Think of a tree. It takes time to grow, to mature, to bear fruit. You can’t rush it, and you can’t force it.

Walking the path of the Shaman-Healer is the same. It requires patience, surrender, and trust in the process.

If you’re ready to embrace this journey, let’s explore the three pillars that will guide you.

The First Pillar: The Master

Many people think a master is just a teacher—someone who gives you knowledge. And while that’s part of it, a true master is something much deeper.

As a Shaman-Healer, you will learn from many sources—your experiences, books, other healers, and even life itself.

So why is a master essential?

The Role of the Master: Surrendering the Ego

The biggest danger on this path is the ego. The more powerful a healer becomes, the more their ego grows. Some shamans become so skilled and recognized that they start believing they are the source of healing.

They forget the one sacred truth:

All healing happens through Spirit.

When a healer takes personal credit for the power they channel, they start absorbing the karma of those they heal. This can lead to illness, confusion, and even a loss of their healing abilities.

This is why a master is necessary.

A true master teaches you how to surrender your ego to something greater. Not through fear or submission, but through love, respect, and recognition of the divine force that flows through all things.

Choosing Your Master

In most cases, a master is a real person—a guide who walks the path before you and helps you navigate its challenges.

But in rare cases, the role of the master can be non-physical—an inner connection to Spirit itself. These situations are uncommon and require deep discernment.

When you fully surrender to something greater, your master will bless you and set you free. From that moment on, your guidance will come directly from Spirit.

And that’s when you become the master.

The Second Pillar: Community

You are not meant to walk this path alone.

Every Shaman-Healer needs a spiritual community—a circle of people who share their love for truth, healing, and transformation.

Your community might include:

• The people you meditate or practice energy healing with.
• Those you meet in retreats, workshops, or sacred ceremonies.
• Even online connections—friends, students, or followers who resonate with your journey.

Why Community is Essential for Your Growth

Within a spiritual community, there is a constant exchange of energy, healing, and wisdom. You receive support, guidance, and inspiration from others who walk the same path.

But here’s the most important lesson:

Everything you receive on this journey is not just for you. It’s meant to be shared.

Some healers make the mistake of keeping their knowledge and wisdom to themselves. They become isolated, focused only on their own growth.

And when that happens… they start falling into ego and fear.

The Power of Giving: Your Gifts Are Not Yours to Keep

A true Shaman-Healer understands that their gifts are meant to be given away. The more you share, the more you grow.

And here’s the paradox:

When you learn to give everything, you become ready to receive everything.

Healing, wisdom, abundance—it all flows effortlessly when you open your heart to service.

But for this to happen, you need a strong foundation. And that brings us to the third and final pillar.

The Third Pillar: Purpose

Without a clear purpose, your energy becomes scattered.

In today’s world, there are too many ideas, too many distractions, too many paths. And if your energy is divided among them, your power weakens.

This is why you need a purpose that is strong, specific, and actionable.

How to Define Your Purpose

It’s not enough to say, “I want to become a healer.”

Your purpose must be clear and grounded. Here are some examples:

• “This year, I will offer 20 healing sessions.”
• “I will create a space where people can come and heal.”
• “I will build a community of 1,000 people who are on this path.”

When your purpose is specific, your energy becomes focused and powerful. And that is what creates transformation.

Unifying Your Energy

The biggest threat to your path is internal conflict. The ego thrives on confusion—on constantly questioning, doubting, and seeking new directions.

But the truth is simple:

Spirit is unified. Its will is one.

To connect fully with Spirit, your energy must also be one.

When your purpose is aligned, your path becomes clear. You no longer have to wonder what to do.

You will simply know.

Walking the Path of the Shaman-Healer

Once you have surrendered your ego, embraced your community, and aligned your energy with a clear purpose, something incredible happens…

Your connection to Spirit becomes effortless.

You won’t need to struggle, search, or second-guess yourself.

Your words, your actions, your path—everything will flow naturally.

This is the true path of the Shaman-Healer.

Are You Ready to Answer the Call?

If you feel the call to this path, take a moment to reflect:

• Do you have a master or guide who can help you surrender your ego?
• Are you connected to a community that nurtures your growth?
• Is your purpose clear and focused?

If not, don’t worry—every journey begins with a single step.

Take the time to find the right teacher, connect with others who share your vision, and define a purpose that truly moves your spirit.

And most importantly—be patient with yourself. Transformation takes time.
