Scarcity mindset, also referred to as poverty mindset, is fast being recognised as a challenge to mental health and wellbeing.
Authors and TEDTalkers are all proposing that an abundance mindset is a key to wellbeing. This is great news in that we have agency around our mindset.
It can, however, also cause some distress for those who feel stuck and are struggling to move out of a scarcity mindset.
In this article, we’ll take a deep dive into the realities of this phenomenon and talk about what causes it and how we can support our clients to move out of a scarcity mindset and into a more positive abundance mindset.
Before you continue, we thought you might like to download our three Gratitude Exercises for free. These detailed, science-based exercises will help you or your clients connect to more positive emotions and enjoy the benefits of gratitude.
