Autumn Affection from Yours Truly!
Late autumn and the leaves are colouring the streets red yellow, green and brown.
It is a time for settling in for the coldness to set in, at least in the Northern Hemisphere, and to reflect on the past year, planning the new to come.
Celebrations are upon us but not for everyone. Remembering those who lost and those who do not celebrate the upcoming festive season, lighting a candle for to chase the darkness away.
The darkness of our soul and our mind, and the lessinging lightful hours.
For me, this is a time of memories and future visions. Bringing it all together in a mish-mash of idea creation and snuggling with a hot cuppa while it all sets in my eternal being.
The past week has brought everything I have missed over the approximatyely 18 months of solitudal living together in just 7 people, a venue and laughter.
I already had been reminded in August together with 5 people – now we are 13 altogether creating new life and new dreams to live!
There is nothing missing in life. It is all there when we make the choice to bring it. Yes, we may have lost and our loved ones will never return, but dismissing life and living is not the solution.
The conversation, the discussion, the learning, the teaching, the laughter, the fun, the share.
I could not have hoped for more for 5 days on Laughter Yoga.
It provides me with plenty of material for reflection and gratitude.
Nothing is given in life but when we come together with pure hearts, honesty, compassion, and a lot of stories to share, we are given the opportunity to write a new ending to story of you, me, us together.
Nothing is ever set in stone.
We will win!
Why?
Because we have faith, courage, enthusiasm and <schhhhhhh – joy> JOY!
Love, Laughter and Grace

In the wake of the Laughter Yoga Teacher Training
I know what I will be teaching in my training courses, that is what the lesson plans and programmes are for.
Yet, I do not know until I enter the room and feel the energy of the group exactly what that teaching will be like and sometime it is so much more than 5-day Laughter Yoga Teacher Training.
In fact, it is ALWAYS so much more!
People create the course. I know the syllabus and have the credentials to teach but each and everyone of you venturing on to the 5-day Laughter Yoga Teacher Training hold the key to the outcome.
No course is ever the same except the outline and the framework. I would stronly encourage you, as Laughter Yoga Leader, to become a Laughter Yoga Teacher.
If ever you saw something in being a Laughter Yoga Leader, and you would like to learn new skills, build deeper connections, find your true essence and share your authentic self, then please do book your place now.
Already there has been too much hesitation!
It was touching and moving and very inspiring to teach in August and building on top of August now October has unfolded in a truly connecting way that I am lost for bigger words (for once).
I find myself in a magnificently awesome place or space where everything and anything is possible because we are working together to spread laughter for the health of it.
You can think up a lot of things by yourself but together be have an even greater opportunity for making lasting change happen.
Laughter Yoga Teacher Training is what dreams and kinship is made of!
To learn more about how you can become a Laughter Yoga Teacher please contact Lotte on mobile/WhatsApp +44 (0) 7736341717 or email lotte@unitedmind.co.uk.
