    Does looking at your bank balance or holiday shopping list trigger a immediate knot of panic in your chest?. You are not alone.In the middle of December, we are often bombarded with the message that "love equals spending," which triggers deep financial scarcity and unworthiness wounds.

"I release the need to buy approval." "I am enough exactly as I am right now."
