Waking up about money

Customer Rating:

Marie Nemeth takes a subject most of us would prefer to avoid and takes us on an adventure to discover how to consciously direct our money towards what we care about most. I found this book engaging, practical, wise, insightful, and clear. One chapter after the next delivers the goods--with excellent questions at the end of each chapter to cement the learning. The chapter on "Scarcity Is One of Your Greatest Teachers" and the Forgiveness exercise alone would be worth every penny! Who wouldn't benefit from having a more conscious relationship with their money! This would be an excellent book study book.The Energy of Money: A Spiritual Guide to Financial and Personal FulfillmentMastering Life's Energies: Simple Steps to a Luminous Life at Work and Play

Possibly good children's book. For an adult, basic & painfully poor editing.

Customer Rating:

The book might be excellent to those teaching their children about money (i.e., for one's children, not for anyone over, say 15). It is not necessarily bad material, but poorly edited and in any case, frustratingly basic. One of those books where the title grabs you, but the content disappoints immediately. Slooooow reading that calls for an editor. Overly simplistic to a thinking audience looking at the abstract/psychological/behavioral aspects of money/wealth. A sample: "Imagine if a laser beam wasn't bouncing all over the obstacles and could get right to the heart of the matter, that would be using your money energy efficiently, consciously, and powerfully...You will clear away many of the boulders that have been in your path...When you and I have an idea and begin to take it into physical reality, there is an incredible shift in the energy that it takes" For an adult, this is tiring to read. Better alternatives are "wealthy and wise" or "everyday irrationality", "hooked" , "the high price of materialism", "my vast fortune", or perhaps more analogous is "creating affluence". This genre demands a good book.

Eye Opener	Customer Rating:
This book has opened my eyes to so much! Not just money wise, but LIFE wise. What a great tool to buy for someone struggling with life.

Great concept- money is a form of energy!

Customer Rating:

I found this a very refreshing concept. We grow up being told that money does not grow on trees and with many other negative connotation about money including misquotes from the bible where "the LOVE of money is the root of evil" but we are told that 'Money is the root of evil' which is a complete misrepresentation. It is SO refreshing to think of money as a form of energy and made to go around. Money is the energy needed if we are to do what we were put on this earth to do and we need to get over our hangups and be positive about how we use this wonderful form of energy.

Boring, for the financially unsavvy

Customer Rating:

I read this book ast part of a group, and all five of us agreed it was one of the worse books we've ever read. Here are two problems: 1. It's written for "the lowest common denominator" of people who haven't really given thought to their money before. 2. It's a slow read. The writing is full of the author's newly-coined terms that read like a college thesis. After reading the first half of the book I started skimming the rest. It was painful to turn the pages.
