Yes to silliness, joy and fun! Here’s a ridiculous one: Stand in front of a mirror and make every ridiculous, twisted up face you can at yourself. And one other I actually do on a regular basis: Google bloopers /outtakes from my favorite funny shows.

I loved reading this! You’re right about the need for some light-hearted silliness! Also thank you for the restorative yoga sequence. I used to teach yoga and always used restorative as part of my classes, but stupidly I now don’t always remember to include it in my own practice! So thank you for the reminder! 💙

Hi everyone it's Day 7 of our Silly and Soulful Challenge. Join the silliness!

Each day I am sharing a new silly idea (in the comments under this essay) and I invite you to also do the same. It’s just one tiny thing a day for 7 days, that makes absolutely no sense... but feels so good.

Here's today’s; Picking up a penny wishing on a star, because life is better when we believe in a bit of magic!
