- Blackberry Pickin' - by Submitted on Aug 06, 2009 from Karen MonroyI had a wonderful Zen afternoon blackberry pickn' the other day. It was wonderful for two reasons, I have heavenly organic blackberries to make a wonderful cobbler, and it was a great reminder of the SOP (standard operating procedure) of the ego mind and traps we unwittingly step ...
Views: 1315(7 votes) - $885 Billion and Sustainable Prosperity - by Submitted on Jul 15, 2009 from Karen MonroyThink of a coin. It seems to have a paradoxical nature to it: two sides, either heads or tails—or it can be viewed as a circle, 360 degrees. What if we were to look at the economic situation, not from heads or tails, but from the circle perspective—a perspective that has no sides? The tenor ...

However, we sometimes get in awful habits and the thoughts take over. If we are not vigilant, the worry thoughts think themselves—again and again. Are you thinking, "Well, who wouldn't like to stop worrying about money? Duh!" Is that thought ...

I am okay with that fact, knowing that I am good at many other things. You might not be a great photographer either, but I bet you know that you can't fix the focus of the picture after the picture is taken. You are that astute, right? I have one of those ...

You are energy--your body, your thoughts--everything around you is energy. Of course money is energy also--a different form of energy. In learning that everything is energy, we must come to see that in our relationship to any energy we are ...

(or Maybe the Kids?) - by Submitted on Jun 30, 2009 from Karen MonroyDoes it seem like every time you take two steps forward you wind up one step behind? Do you think you’re doing “fine” with money, but keep looking and looking for ways to cut back? More to the point: Do you control your money, or does your money control you? If ...
Views: 1350(10 votes) - Do You Have Ghosts in Your Money House? - by Submitted on Jun 30, 2009 from Karen MonroyTension in relationship is nothing new. Tension or conflict over money is not new either. Many, if not most adults avoid “money” conversations. Just like other key issues (sex, religion and child rearing) that seem so sensitive, deep and inexpressible, lack of money communication ...
