The most recent market meltdown saw trillions of dollars disappear from the North American economy, and the financial markets drop more than 44% from their highs. Daily volatility was immense, with swings of up to 1,000 points in a single day. A vicious cycle of fear and greed caused panic and suffering for individual investors, investment advisors, and pension fund managers alike.
The Mindful Investor shows you how to use a single tool — Mindfulness Meditation — to achieve clarity, focus, and peace of mind with your finances. Oprah, Eckhart Tolle, and Phil Jackson have done much to bring meditation out of the mystic shadows. This book continues to do so, offering simple and practical tips to learn Mindfulness and combine it with sound financial planning principles — no chanting or patchouli required.
This book will teach you to:
Replace greed and desperation with calm and focus when considering your finances.
Stop being worked by your money — start making it work for you.
Create your own definition of success.
Stay focused on what matters, and be level-headed about what you can’t control.
Understand the basics of Mindfulness Meditation, including the five hindrances to success.
Acquire simple Mindfulness techniques you can use anytime, anywhere to help you create calm and focus at will, see clearly under stressful conditions, and make better financial decisions.
