Need a pick me up?  Studies show that counting money can actually boost your mood, increase inner strength and self-sufficiency, and reduce feelings of physical pain.

I’ve talked to at least three people this week who have been avoiding money matters.

Many people tend to feel dread when it comes to doing a budget or sitting down and playing with their money.

It’s time for a shift in perspective. …And there is science that proves there are benefits that come with the act of counting our money.

We are going to dig more into business money matters in the coming weeks.

For now, if you’ve been avoiding your money, it’s time to give it some love instead.

Grab your lip-gloss and a glass of wine and get ready to date your dollars (a term coined by my friend Karie Hill).  Light some candles,  cozy up to your dollars, and make love to your money!

In the coming weeks, we’ll be getting more specific and practical for now –  Start counting! 😉

What are your feelings about money?  Let me know if the comments if you’ve been avoiding some specific money matters and how you are going to change it up this week.
