Money Therapy

Most people have a love/hate relationship with money. Most people also don't have as much money as they think they should have or need; and those who have lots of money often find that they're still not happy. Deborah L. Price addresses these problems in her latest book, Money Therapy. Price is a licensed investment advisor and stockbroker. She is now a money coach consultant. She has condensed her more than fifteen years experience into a process called money therapy. She explains that we are not meant to spend our lives shopping and working to pay off debt. The purpose of her book, she says, is "to help you remember the purpose of your life: the original purpose." Money is only one of the many tools available for achieving that purpose. Price advises people to start building the life they want before they have money. Too many people waste their lives waiting for money to come first, and are still unhappy if it does come. She details how to build a strong foundation based on what you truly want from life, and then how to manifest the money needed to achieve your goals. Over the years, she's observed eight "money types," based on how people feel about money. These are the innocent, victim, warrior, martyr, fool, creator/artist, tyrant, and the money magician. The money types are meant to be a "guide to discovering the impact of your past experiences with money and to changing your approach in the future." Price describes the weaknesses and strengths of each, and explains how people can turn themselves into money magicians who have all that they need and the ability to enjoy it. She's included a simple quiz to help readers determine which type they are. She emphasizes throughout the book that the only real value that money has is the value we give to it. Money itself is just pieces of paper. We forget this, and attribute power to money. This leads feeling out of control and making financial choices based on fear. Price has filled Money Therapy with advice on how to overcome negative and fearful feelings about money. She provides "practical steps toward acknowledging the hold of money on our minds and emotions and then using those insights to create not only a better relationship to money but also the wealth and prosperity we desire."

Money Therapy: A Path for Spiritual and Psychological Growth

I've read dozens of books on money (and completed hundreds of exercises), and what I appreciated most about Deborah's cogent volume was its "user-friendly" format. In contrast, Maria Nemeth's "The Energy of Money," while comprehensive, was intimidating in the level of commitment required to complete her program. Deborah's work inspired me (a psychotherapist) to complete the training she provides through the Money Coaching Institute and make it the focus of the psychospiritual work I do with clients. Deborah is not a "therapist" per se, but she KNOWS how people relate to money as a result of her many years of experience in the financial services industry, and has communicated her knowledge straightforwardly and helpfully in her book. Her vision is to help individuals harmoniously integrate the energy of money into all aspects of their lives and, by example, become healers themselves. I found this to be a unique approach, valuable to me personally, and proving valuable to my clients as well.

Money Therapy

I found this book so refreshing! Compared to other standard financial money advice books, the author, Deborah Price, integrated money archetypes and spirituality giving the reader a chance to look at money in a more fulfilling, richer way. The book gave me tools to be able to filter out the negative subconscious views we have about money and how to turn our views into a more positive, selfserving "Money Magician".

Deborah is the best

I had to read this book two times...BECAUSE IT'S GOOD!.. Deborah not only touches the inner workings of the finanical side of the brain, she also explains the importance of keeping the faith alive inside your being. I have had the pleasure of personally talking to Deborah, and just to let all you readers out there...that she is a great person, very friendly and VERY SMART! Keeping the faith is the key to sucess! Working out finanical plans and keeping you on the right track is what she does well. THIS BOOK IS A MUST ! Best wishes to all that read it and hope that Deborah writes another real soon !

Overcome Your Lifetime Money Issues

If ever I needed a book, this is it, and I suspect it will find many other readers. The initial premise is hard to argue with: money has an undeniable hold upon our attention and our emotions...Going well beyond "manifesting" money, or "visualizing prosperity," Money Therapy can help readers understand and overcome their lifelong money issues.-SA
