Publisher's Synopsis
The unconscious beliefs that sabotage your financial well-being and how to free yourself from them. Discover how your thoughts, emotions, and past experiences shape your money habits and find your path to financial freedom. Do you spend too much or make impulsive purchases that you later regret? Do you feel like you never have enough money? Do you hide your purchases from your partner? Do you resist spending money even on things you know you need? The relationship you have with money is one of the most important in your life, but you may not be aware of the complex network of emotions and past experiences that determine your financial habits. This book will help you unravel these psychological obstacles and start making better financial decisions. Through a combination of case studies, client experiences and her own knowledge on the subject, psychotherapist Vicky Reynal explains how living with an emotionally absent father or mother could lead to a habit of compulsive shopping, how bullying sometimes leads us to overspend, or how a lack of limits on the part of parents can interfere with making rational financial decisions. It then helps you change those ingrained attitudes and beliefs so you stop falling into the same old traps. In this book you will learn to recognize the triggers for your expenses; let go of the scarcity mentality; free yourself from anxiety about spending; take control of your habits. By better understanding the root causes of your financial difficulties, you can build a more secure financial future.
