MIND OVER MONEY:
How to get control of your finances and revitalize your emotional and physical well-being (Book)
 

You are one of the lucky ones. You have a job you love, and you make good money, even if you do have to work late nights and some weekends. That's just part of the price of success, right? And of course, you have to dress the part. Only the best clothing will fit the image, for you and your family. So what if it costs a bit much, you make good money, right? You must since they just approved you for another gold card. Then there are the house and car. You've earned a big house, with a pool, in an exclusive neighborhood, even though you aren't there much. And all your neighbors are driving the latest luxury model car, you would feel out of place in your neighborhood with an older car. Everything is perfect, right? Right?  

What's wrong with this picture? Nothing on the surface, but underneath some pressing problems loom. This person, like many Americans, is struggling to maintain a perfect image, regardless of the costs and those costs are very high. We've all been on the treadmill, and have succumbed to the temptation to live the illusion of having it all, regardless of our ability to afford it.
 
"Next month will be better!" How many times have you heard yourself repeat these words, only to find your finances even more out of control the following month. According to financial and wellness consultant Wayne Nance and noted stress psychologist Dr. Edward Charlesworth, over 90% of all Americans fail financially. Why?

"The safest way to double your money is to fold it over once and put it in your pocket."
Kin Hubbard

Spending has become the drug of choice in an effort to feel better and improve self-esteem. It might not be illegal or immoral, but the effects can be quite intoxicating. In Mind Over Money authors Nance and Charlesworth take an in-depth look at how financial health and attitudes toward spending, affect emotional and physical health.

The number one "stressor" in America is money and stress is the number one cause of physical illness. The authors address a revolutionary new concept that demonstrates how our spending and savings habits affect our overall well-being.

The two things that people are universally interested in is health and wealth. Mind Over Money covers these core issues by helping individuals assess their total lives and presents a 10 step course to achieving financial wellness.

"Americans are constantly trying to buy happiness and that will always be impossible. Unless a spiritual, emotional and physical balance of money is achieved, total mental wellness will continue to allude us," say Nance and Charlesworth. The journey to developing a balanced lifestyle of total wellness is within reach. Begin today to turn unhealthy habits and attitudes into a plan for financial wellness by ordering Mind Over Money.
