answer. Do you feel as if something is stopping you from prospering? Or maybe it is your own mind that does not feel you are entitled to proper for whatever reason. That could be the prisoner - you. Or maybe someone close to you does not want you to prosper and you unconsciously adhere to their beliefs.

I think a better question to ask is, "What is stopping me from prospering?"

And then if you get any insight into a negative belief that may be stopping use you can try this tapping video to rid yourself of the beliefs.

I find that it works really well! You start out with a feeling that is stuck in you and you tap the different points on your body and say what he tells you to say and I swear, each and every time I have done it the feeling has lessened greatly in me.

Boy I am opening up to the weird new age-y things I do. But actually I spoke to a friend who is a social worker and he said they used the tapping method at one place he worked. And it reminds me a little of PTSD therapy.
