The Emotion Behind Money - Summary

 Julie Murphy Casserly has studied the emotional connection between people and their money—their income, spending habits, and savings—for the past decade. And, for the last eight years, she has been working to build the wealth of large and small clients in her own practice. This experience allows her to offer people of all ages and financial status the benefit of her deep insights and comprehensive understanding of the interplay of the personal, emotional and financial attitudes and how they are linked. In so doing, she has been able to provide her clients with financial solutions that last. 

This conference had so much to offer and so many great sessions...it was like a Fountain of Youth. Please post your experiences...I'd love to hear your personal highlights if you attended.

With Mother’s day around the corner many of us are beginning to make brunch, lunch, dinner reservations at greatly inflated prices for our Ma Dear. This year why not try something a little different. Here are some suggestions that will de-stress, energize, and uplift your mother.

1. Try a Yoga class, Yoga will help to create balance of the body mind and spirit. Establishing a daily practice of Yoga will yield benefits such as flexibility, health and mental clarity. Recent research has shown it to be of great help in the treatment of heart conditions, asthma, back pain, arthritis, anxiety, migraines, insomnia obesity and diabetes just to name of few.
2. Couples massage, One of the hottest services in the spa industry is couples massage (not just for lovers). Two people are massaged in the same room, at the same time, by two different therapists. Some larger spas and resorts have elaborate amenities for couples such as fireplaces, pedicure chairs, steam showers and lounging beds where you and your mother can relax together after your treatments.
3. Hire a personnel Chef, which will come to your home and prepare your Mother’s day meal based on your needs and personal preference. The chef typically purchases all the ingredients, prepares the meal, and cleans up after dinner. The meal is usually prepared prior to arriving at your home, but the chef will add the finishing touches on the meal upon arrival. Your gourmet meal is usually served as if dining at a seven star restaurant. The only work that you need to do is the write the check.

Make this Mother’s day a celebration of regeneration; start your mom on a path toward health, happiness, balance, and wholeness. I’am sure she will appreciate the thoughtfulness you have invested to make this a special day for her.
