My sister and I were just discussing places that expect you to give your classes and workshops away for free in exchange for the sheer joy and privilege of doing the work (oh, and the powerful publicity of the event in their venue!) right before I read this blog piece by Robert Alvarez.
When doing energetic work – or teaching yoga – or playing music, making art, writing, or creative work or service, it can feel weird at first charging a fee – afterall, the client isn’t buying a “product”. However, your time, experience, and wisdom does have value – and if you don’t value your own work, then who will?
Affirmation: I value my life, and it shows.

Oh, by the way, I LOVE your Affirmation!
thanks for the inspiration, Robert!
I could very well say (or write, as the case may be) the same thing. And “The Issues of Money, Part III…” shall be published in less than five minutes. Thank you.
Holly, I always know I AM really doing something right (or is it “write”) in my life, and that I AM really “right on” when you reblog one of my posts. I have a feeling that all five parts of “The Issues of Money…” are going to be Divinely Channeled and are going to move in a direction that I do not originally anticipate (then again, I AM less than an hour from publishing “Part III” and I have known for the last two hours that today’s shall be from a different place than I expected). And yes, I AM wearing both sky blue and dark blue; how is that for Throat Chakra Power?! I AM beyond honored by you, and I AM beyond thankful.
