Knowing when money leaves you hurts! I try to strike a balance between knowing when to be aware and when not to be because being aware everytime would kill me. If I am paying a necessity, I just pay it. I like the part about thinking of money in terms of hours you worked. <a href="http://missmentor.com" rel="nofollow">MissMentor</a> I am very aware that most times I am not mindful of my spending.

I am studying mindfulness and breathing/meditation practices. You are quite right: It's not just about being mindful in those 15 minutes you carve out for "quiet time"; it's about being mindful all the time. This includes being keyed into the here and now of relationships with others, habits of good health such as healthy eating and exercising, and certainly both in spending money and the nature of our work. Awareness is the key to success--financially and in all aspects. Great post David. I am studying mindfulness and breathing/meditation practices.
