You know how Life has this knack for just ... being "round," circular, symmetrical in a way that we can only see in the rearview mirror or from way up above, like a wildly perfect mandala? Of course, you know.

Well, as I see this new platform created for us by Ecologistics, our fiscal sponsor, I look back and one little pebble at a time I get to see how this all came to be.

How, in the early WEEKS of the Happiness Sprinkling Project, Feneesha, one of our very first Ambassadors wrote to me that she had read about this new organization called The Pollination Project and how we may want to get in touch with them.

Very soon after, we became one of their first grantees - and they have blessed us over and over and over, since that day. Blessed us with funding, with learning, with growing, with lifelong friendships (Liz, Chris, Alissa), and also with making it possible for us to receive tax-deductible donations - which is kind of a big deal.

So you see, it's so much magic and often, we just have to start. Show up. Know in our guts the WHY and trust that the HOW will follow. One phone call at a time, one person at a time, one idea at a time.

I will put this on the website this weekend but for now, I wanted to show it to you. It's kind of amazing.

And then... not.

Maryn and I were talking last night, during a sweet baby visit, and I got all kinds of passionate about what I know to be the power of Happiness School when it comes to giving us tools to navigate life's wild ride. I know about it, and my students tell me about it, especially in the last few months as we are being asked to stay grounded, just as everything around us twirls around madly.

Tools. Practical tools. And magic, too. That's what we need, and that's what Happiness School gives us. Gently, powerfully and forever!

All of a sudden I started to feel a little funny (or is it guilty?) about not having talked about Happiness School enough these last few months. I think I have been wrapped up in my own world of painting and getting ready to leave for Mexico. And shingles. And closing the Ballroom. That stuff.

Last night, I got fired up about fixing this, and part of me wants to just give everyone access to the class so that you can all start 2021 seeped in this good stuff, spend 90 days transforming your inner terrain, and be in a whole new place by the time April arrives.

But I can't really do that and respect the hundreds of hours I have put into this work.

So, I thought of something.

Something which might be a great plan because it involves an Essence a lot of us are hungry for, right now: Connection.

Ta da! Enters The Happiness School Buddy Pass. I think you are going to like it.

Here's how it goes:

Until December 29th, when you sign up for Happiness School, you get to bring a friend to class, for FREE - and you can get a 25% discount on your tuition, too. This means that get to choose someone you love who lives anywhere in the world and

1) give them a way important and life-changing gift and

2) you two will spend 12 super powerful week "together" growing a whole new way of living.

By the time spring comes, you will have gone on this big, magical journey together, and have

• Made room in both of your lives. Removed all kinds of clutter. Physical, emotional, and psychological. This is right at the beginning of the course and will bring you tons of peace right away, in this current situation we are in.
• Learned about The Magic of Essence™ (the whole course is now included in Happiness School) which will give you both super-duper Clarity on you are at your core, so that you may create in that direction, as opposed to wasting time, energy, and heartache floundering around.
• Know - and be about to talk - about The Lizard and why things are so inflamed right now. As well as what to do about it.
• Have a whole crate of tools to keep you more sane and peaceful, no matter what new waves come your way
• A much bigger connection to Joy.

And lots more.

Listen: this is a RICH course. And taking it together will bring you so much closer to each other, as well as empower each one of you to deeply absorb the work. Including many parts which I know you will want to share with other people in your life.

I am so glad I thought of that last night and I hope it feels exciting to you.

You have till December 29th to make this happen and give the two of you an amazing way to start 2021.
Let me know if you have any questions. I think it's going to be awesome.

(The way to do it is to first register yourself for the course using the BUDDYPASS2020 coupon and then email me with your friend's email address. Within 24 hours, I will send you a 100% off coupon code for them so that you may register him or her for free)

This year more than before, we may not like getting colds.

Yin Chiao has been my go-to cold vanisher, miracle healer for over two decades. It just WORKS, esp. if you take it as soon as your body tells you that it ran into a cold virus (we need to learn these early on little messages)

I used to go to Chinatown to get it but now we can find it online or even some health food stores. Be sure to get it organic.

I’m excited to share it with you because it truly is one of my best resources.

And the timing, of course, is perfect because three years ago today I was arriving in Rome and feeling super sick (during my six months of travel, it seems that each time I got to a new location I would get a cold). I did not have my magic pills with me and endeavored to trek all over Rome to find a Chinese pharmacy! Thats how much I trust in the stuff.

It took metros and many streets and twists and turns to finally find it. So I had to reward myself with a cannolo from what I had read was one of the best pastry shops in the city. ❤️

Here you go - from my precious pharmacy to you.

note: I initially wrote this exclusively for my online HappyU community but then decided to share it more widely. For some good conversation, inspiration, as well as some of my best tips and tools, consider meeting me there. It’s free and it’s good.
