The Emotion Behind Money
Julie Murphy Casserly
November 4, 2011 9:15-10:45A.M
No matter how hard some people want to attract –or retain–money, the financial component of success seems elusive, and they remain frustrated and puzzled. It’s the old, existential question so many talented, hard-working people ask of themselves: “If I’m so smart, why aren’t I rich?” The lecture will address the money makeover you need most, a close-up look at money and emotions, your financial DNA, how to change how you feel about money and owning your personal power with money.

Dr. Martha Howard
Wednesday November 9, 2011 7 P.M.
Part of the obesity problem for kids and adults in the U.S. is a diet that makes blood sugar skyrocket after every meal or snack.

Learn about foods with a low to moderate “glycemic index”–a measure of how high a food makes your blood sugar rise after you eat it–how to shop for them and cook good meals with them.
