All is well, I will surmise.
Essentially, it would be advised to see below the surface representation of what 'money' is. It is in a sense a tool for society, energy crystallized within 3rd Density vibrations fashioned in a manner which society places elevated 'value' and 'meaning' over as a valid symbol of exchange for services. Your seeming external conflict may reflect inbuilt definitions or 'beliefs' you may hold regarding the nature of money, and thus it is something to be thanked for it is providing the service of being a reflection, and in offering of catalyst to see reality and it's confines for what it is, rather than what society dictates to you that it is. Allow me to clarify.
Many consider the notion of money to somehow be inherently be negative, as if the very concept of it is the root of all evil, yet also have the belief that in order to be successful one must have accrued a large amount of said currency. Another common belief is that one must be a 'good' person (as if there is an objective standard) and in looking at these three beliefs we see that one may never become successful or attract that reality as they have chosen to conflate the ideas of amassing money with being evil. The universe is very literal and will provide feedback as a mirror would, and as such if you feel guilty you will always encounter situations which exemplify and reinforce that guilt. If it appears to you that you may believe any of these three 'ideals' above, then it is an indicator that you are giving your own power away over arbitrary definitions which in 'reality' is a wholly subjective affair. Remember, the only person who will ever get in the way of your own self is you. Take 100% responsibility for your reality creation and abolish any inbuilt beliefs regarding the nature of reality if they may appear to not be conducive to the self and expansion of awareness.
You are always abundant in all (many choose an abundance of lack); if you were not you and were not inherently deserving you would never have existed at all because 'reality does not do pointless things'. The key is 'deprogramming' yourself from what society 'thinks' you should do and one of the ways in justifying this is leveraging your existing knowledgebase/experience in knowing that you, as a Creator/God in your own right, are inherently deserving of all.
Money is a perfectly valid symbol of abundance, and is neither lesser or greater than any other forms (Gifts, items grown naturally, and so forth). There is nothing 'non-spiritual' about money, logically speaking, for the entire life you are living is 'spiritual', as all is Spirit manifest. Know that on some level you agreed to play by the game rules of 3rd Density, and thus should honor them. Whilst you are here your body on a daily basis requires sustenance, a shelter to protect from the elements, a place to relieve yourself, among other necessities. And so to deny that which you agreed to playing the role with is to deny the self. Love yourself and your body, respect and fulfill the needs in whatever manner may be of least resistance, and see the beauty of being given the opportunity to have an intimate experience with physical reality through flesh, and thank your body for allowing yourself to do so. Life is meant to be enjoyed, just be. Life is too short to be concerned with how other people see you. See money rather as energy which is exchanged for other energy, rather than the print or negative misconceptions, because to chose to believe in such a definition is voluntarily giving away your own power.
From a more 'practical' standpoint, many who raise the issue about charging for such services will have no problem paying for a monthly subscription to cable T.V., or other such amenities which would likely prove detrimental to growth (often by corporations concerned purely with profit margins) yet scoff at that which may actually prove beneficial to the individual. The hypocrisy is that many, if not all would still be paying with money for their food, bills and other 'necessities', and so if they actually held a valid argument they themselves would be an example by not utilizing currency at all, though you will find the majority, if not all do not.
The point being, is that it isn't a question of money itself, but the misunderstanding that receiving information/healing/anything positive is a purely one way affair, not knowing that what you put in is what you get out. There is also the issue of many seeing money as a negative symbol, however that is a belief one chooses to believe in; it is but a tool, the result through use of which is dependent on the Human. Your role in this would simply be to provide the terminal for the energy exchange for the service.
See money being given as a gift from your own self (Since all is one) for your time and effort (which is also a form of energy). Do not be concerned with who cannot afford, for only those who were supposed to be brought to you will do so will make themselves aware to your consciousness within this mode of reality. You may be surprised and find someone who was exceptionally impressed and pay much more willingly than you expected out of Love, alleviating the need for future charge, so do not discount such possibilities. Have faith in spirit and the self, that you are unconditionally supported and you will find your reality will also reflect these ideals.
