Woody — my Joy Spinner

Hello!

September is Humor-Helps-Heal Month (or short H. H. H.…. say this aloud!)

Say it with a big, intentional smile… H. H. H. Good.

Remember, it doesn’t matter if your smile is real or you fake it. Your brain doesn’t know it. It responds to your facial muscles and sends out feel-good hormones!

Pause a moment here.

Relax, let go, and close your eyes.

Take one deep, joyful breath in… hold it at the top… and breathe out with a sigh.

Reflect and bring awareness to your thoughts over the last twenty-four hours.

Were they mostly positive or more negative?

Be curious and be kind about what you discover. Celebrate every negative thought you catch. Trust you can change it into a positive thought. All it takes is awareness and practice!

Examples are:

  • I never get this right 👉 I haven’t figured it out yet.
  • This is too hard 👉 This may take some time and commitment.
  • I can’t do this anymore 👉 I can do this.

And now, add humor to your day; make it your new habit. It will empower you to choose how you want to feel… stressed or relaxed?

Hop on your 🌴 Tiny Island: The Joy Spinner.

The Tiny Islands are soulful self-care tools to activate your body's self-healing powers!

My friends, to choose what we need to be truly happy depends on one skill — awareness. Awareness guides you in living your life with clarity and genuine happiness. Humor, joy, and smiles are your magic medicine.

If you are ready to dive deeper, join us on the Tiny Island Tour of Germany. Don’t wait. Choosing your Soul word for the journey alone is a masterpiece in self-awareness and self-empowerment.

Now, one more smile for you from Karl Valentine, the German Charly Chaplin whom I also honor in the Tour:

Everything has three sides — one positive, one negative, and one funny.

Love yourself more, not less, when challenged!

Big Love…

Manuela
