I take this opportunity to wish you all Great Holidays full of Shanti (peace)! Take this time to rest, enjoy family and friends, remember to reconnect with yourself, and why not, to practice a bit of yoga and meditation.
Build new positive habits that will replace old (maybe less positive) ones.
I leave you with this video that we shoot in January 2018 in the streets of Brussels. It warms my heart when I see it and I live again this amazing experience. I think that it is in line with the Christmas spirit, to spread the kindness!
We (my friends Cristina, Dominica and I) gave “free hugs” in the street, randomly.
It wasn’t easy for me, as I am a little shy by nature. The people around were surprised, sometimes it was hard for them to understand what was going on. It was also difficult to believe that we did something for free 😉
Once they understood, many were open and literally runned into our open arms. I loved this experience and I advice to do it yourself too, with a friend. You will feel a warm connection with total strangers, making the world a little kinder.
Enjoy the video! I am sure that it will touch you as much as it touched me. Merry Christmas!
