For example, buying flowers for your mother is happy money. Whenever you purchase a product or service that you love and enjoy, you send happy money out into the universe!&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p> <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Unhappy money happens when you spend without realizing the value of the goods or services.

When you spend money, spend it with an open heart and gratefulness. Honda believes, \u201cMoney appreciates if you appreciate it\u201d.<\/p>\n<p> <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The appreciation for the outflow and inflow of money is as simple as saying \u201cthank you\u201d &#8211; say it within your heart or even out loud!&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p> <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Start <em>arigato<\/em>-ing your money today and eliminate your stress as well as anxiety around money.
