| THINKING DIFFERENTLY ABOUT MONEY | I’ve never really been confident about money.
Never really had a lot of it, either. (Nor do I expect, or particularly want, to!) But I’ve started to see that one’s comfort with money — money being, for better or worse, a stressy and more or less non-negotiable aspect of life — can be less dependent on “traditional money acumen” and more on our own conscious practice of working with our conditioned thinking and feelings about money. That’s because I was recently fortunate enough to work with Spencer Sherman, a longtime Buddhist meditator and financial advisor, on his just-released Lion’s Roar online course, The Dharma of Money.
Financial terminology has generally confounded me, yet Spencer is speaking my language. Yes, what he’s talking about may well lead to greater financial success, but at the core, he’s teaching us how to live with greater financial awareness by approaching money with dharma-informed values and methods: clarity, generosity, meditation, open-mindedness, loving-kindness. However I feel about money, I’ll always want more of those things!
Like The Dharma of Money, these Lion’s Roar articles from Spencer and others point the way. May they serve you well.
