Welcome to the August 19th edition of the Personal Development Carnival. As usual, we have quite an assortment of posts, everything ranging from improving your health and wealth to the Law of Attraction and brain exercises. If you would like to host an edition of the personal development carnival, you can contact Lyman, our founder.

One of the perks of hosting is that you get to highlight one of your posts first. Last week, I kicked off a series on meditation and the final post in the series answers the question, “Am I doing it right?
