Money is often a dividing issue in our personal lives and in society at large. A lot of stress revolves around the idea of unfairness and it can be loosened by questioning our judgments and beliefs about those who have and those who have not.
There are some interactive exercises in this module. Please take the time to do these exercises, including writing a Judge-Your-Neighbor Worksheet. We also encourage you to do The Work on the worksheet on your own time either in written form or with a partner.
