Joy of Mindfulness

My laughter sister Heather Joy's Laughter Yoga Happydemic has done some amazing work in Australia. 💛🤩
She has been a true mentor and inspiration to me especially during Covid.
Yes, that is ME sitting just behind her lol 😂

10 years ago this week, I was in Bangalore India undertaking laughter yoga teacher training with Dr Madan Kataria.

That training was life changing.

It's been a real privilege to share laughter yoga skills in workshops and sessions across Queensland, and via the internet around the world!

Right now the world needs more of the superpower of laughter for wellbeing, bringing health, happiness and peace.

DM me if you'd like to find out about workshops and training options for community, workplaces, and aged care.

There is something about Spring that brings a sense of Hopefulness especially in times of uncertainty and darkness.
Wildflowers bloom when conditions feel safe and opportunities present themselves.
🪻🌸🌷🌼
After a long dark winter, Spring flowers whisper to us to be brave and shine in our vibrancy. 💖✨

The World may seem dark right now.
For many, their lives feel and are in survival mode. Including mine.
What I learned these last three years is no matter how hard and difficult Life shows up for us, never forget that in the depths of despair, it is the small moments that matter most.
That warm smile or hug 🤗 ❤️
or a bird song 🎵 🐦‍⬛
or in my case these beautiful spring flowers that remind me all I need is to show up just one breath at a time, one moment at a time….Nothing more or less.

And when the time is right, and feels SAFE ENOUGH, I too will bloom again.

To those who are going through immense grief, sadness and despair, know that you are held by a presence far greater than you can imagine when you spend time in Nature. Nature heals weary Souls if you are willing to engage and be present with it.

Life is about perspective…we often get caught up with the nitty gritty that we forget to zoom out and take in the whole picture. 😉🤩
That time of year when almond blossoms and their fragrance dot the Algarvean landscape. 🌸💖

Happy New Year 2026
Frohes Neues Jahr ✨

May the year bring you and yours moments of calm, rest and comfort.

Life invites us to just be BE PRESENT. All we have to do is to take it one breath at a time, rather than get caught up with the hype of resolutions and goals.
Connect with the moment and you will notice despite your challenges, life is good.
Surround yourself with people who raise you up.
Practice gratitude/ appreciation for those small moments.
For each day is a gift, let’s use time wisely.

May you walk with renewed hopefulness this year.
Christine 💛

May each find our way HOME this festive season.
May we light the paths for others along the way.
