Written by Jessi Kohlhagen We all know the life-changing benefits of meditation. What many people don't realize is how revolutionary a meditation practice can be for their financial lives. This may come as a surprise, since meditation is most associated with eastern religious practices, all of which tend to emphasize spiritual pursuits over material pleasures. The idea of using meditation to elevate our financial lives may feel foreign or even a bit “mystical” to those of us who haven’t yet committed to a regular meditation practice. It may feel impractical to those of us struggling with real financial problems. Suffice it to say -- for most of us, the topics of meditation and money feel worlds apart from each other. But Lifebookers know better… With our deep understanding of the power of interconnectivity, and our absolute belief that WE are the creators of our own reality, we can leverage the power of meditation to shift our money mindset, install life-changing financial habits, and claim our destiny of abundance. Here are some of the most important ways meditation will transform your financial life:

Last week I did a 4 day anniversary Lifebook session in Chicago with an AMAZING group, deeply thinking through my Lifebook, my life vision and everything that matters in my life. Ironically I found myself cutting and deleting more than adding. Overall, the theme was simplification. A very powerful process but one that would have been doomed from the beginning if I hadn’t done one simple thing first. I had to figure out where what I was starting with. In terms of financial intelligence and wealth there’s no more important question to ask then, where am at right now? It’s fascinating to hear friends and clients tell me how stressed they are financially. When I ask them why so stressed, the answer: “because I’m working 80 hours a week and barely keeping up.” I ask why and they say because I have to, I have responsibilities. Sound familiar? So what do you do? Start with these 2 questions...

Uncover the strategies Lifebook Member Jack Bosch used to become a millionaire by age 35 in his interview with Jon Butcher this month. Jack is an entrepreneur, a nationally recognized speaker, and a wealth mentor... and in this interview, he challenges the very way we think about money, and what retirement means. Jack shares his view of The American Dream and reveals the following:

• Why one won’t get wealthy by working the 9-5 life for 40 years and investing in a 401K. • How obtaining wealth doesn’t have to lead to taking major risks. • Why the rich think differently about money and what we can learn from them. • Ways to earn seed money – and to save money – so that you can begin to invest these funds. • Ways we can invest our money so a cash flow develops that can be reinvested and finally lived off of. • What the top two reasons are for failing financially -- and how to avoid them. • How to differentiate a good investment from a bad one.

By: Lifebook Member Colleen Cardarella Last year I shifted my category of focus to my financial life for a while. I knew I wanted to improve this area of my life. My financial score was in the above average range, but I was wrestling with something when I answered the financial questions on the Intra-Spect Assessment.  I was saying to myself as I answered that section, “I could be doing better here…and it really wouldn’t be difficult…I just need to spend the time on it.” So, for the next several months I worked on this area of my life. I raised my financial score 20 points to an extraordinary score.  Nothing I did to raise my score involved making more money. Everything had to do with organizing, planning and managing my financial life better.
