As you hand your money to a clerk, the face on the bill should be looking at you as you say to yourself, \u201cmoney knows me and comes home to me!\u201d<strong><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>CLEAR THE CLUTTER<\/strong>: Make sure that your money is NOT crumpled up or jammed into your purse and\/or wallet AND clean the clutter out of said money holders! Handle money as if you value it!<strong><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>GIVE GENEROUSLY.<\/strong> Money is simple a form of energy. And as all energy, it needs to flow through your life, not just into it all jammed into the corners. Money needs air, light and space to grow. Even though these are some financially tight times, it is important to give as generously as you can. If not money, then give your time and energy! Spread the love. Give with your heart!<strong><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>ATTRACTIVE COVER.<\/strong> Put your checkbook in a pretty cover, preferably green, purple or red. And then store it in the wealth area of your desk (rear left corner).<strong><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>GREEN AND PURPLE GRAPES.<\/strong> Fill a bowl with green and purple grapes (preferably real grapes; not artificial!), and place the bowl in the wealth area of your kitchen (left corner from point of entry). The grapes symbolize abundance filing your home. If you eat the grapes, be sure to refill the bowl, always keeping your bowl half full!<\/p>\n<p>Enjoy the many riches that are sure to come to you and those that you are already blessed to have.<\/p>\n<p>And for an additional platter full of money magic, as well as unlimited supplies of motivation, inspiration and just plain weight loss fun, sign up for the <a href=\"http:\/\/maildogmanager.com\/surveys\/OurLadyofWeightLoss\/optin1.html\"><em>Kick in the Tush Club<\/em><\/a>!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>Spread the word \u2026 NOT the icing,<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Janice<\/em><\/p>\n<p>\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014<br \/>\nFor the best in wellness and weight loss wisdom, visit Janice:<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ourladyofweightloss.com\/\"><br \/>\nOur Lady of Weight Loss<\/a><br \/>\njoin the\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/maildogmanager.com\/surveys\/OurLadyofWeightLoss\/optin1.html\"><em>Kick in the Tush Club<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Become a Tushkateer!<br \/>\n<strong><em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.kickinthetushclub.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Tushkateer*<\/a><\/em><\/strong>\u00a0 A Tushkateer is a person who receives Our Lady of Weight Loss\u2019s newsletter, called the KICK in the TUSH CLUB!!!\u00a0 <a href=\"http:\/\/maildogmanager.com\/surveys\/OurLadyofWeightLoss\/optin1.html\" target=\"_blank\">Sign up and receive her weekly e-newsletter<\/a> with all the news that \u2018fit\u2019 to print, and you are automatically a Tushkateer!\u00a0 How cool is that? <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/..\/..\/wp-includes\/images\/smilies\/icon_smile.gif\" alt=\":)\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Follow Janice on\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/#%21\/ourlady\" target=\"_blank\">Twitter @OurLady<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/ourladyofweightloss\" target=\"_blank\">Facebook.com\/OurLadyofWeightLoss<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ourladyofweightloss.com\/motivation\/coach.asp\" target=\"_blank\">Need a Weight Loss Success Coach<\/a>?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President Obama delivered a fine State of the Union address last night, but OMG!!! &#8230; he forgot the MONEY RITUALS!!!
