One of the initiatives that I love to do with Be Genki is to support environmental sustainability campaigns that work towards a better, brighter and cleaner future for the world we live in.

So it seems I have a new friend. Not sure what he’s called yet (I’m open to any suggestions) … but nevertheless he’s been adding a little extra happiness to my days.

One little ritual that I have been loving lately is starting my day reading the “thought for the day” from the AEOS BLOG. It’s been a fabulous little reminder to implement all sorts of helpful, mindful and conscious practices in to my daily life.
For example, today’s thought for the day is:
Agree to disagree

Some things are just too cute not to share …
the new baby lambs at Shire Farm.
One thing is always for certain, if you’re having a particularly challenging moment in life, the best remedy is nature in all its innocence completely free from silly insignificant thoughts that pollute the minds of humans. Sweet little fluffy animals are undoubtedly therapy for the soul.
