Happiness is a desire we all share. In this newsletter, I thought I would share a few of my favourite quotes that will hopefully help boost your happiness.

“Very little is needed to make a happy life; it is all within yourself, in your way of thinking” ~ Marcus Aurelius

Who is Marcus Aurelius I hear you ask?

He was a Roman emperor from 161 to 180 A.D. and a philosopher. Philosophy is a way of thinking about the world, the universe, and society. It works by asking very basic questions about the nature of human thought, the nature of the universe, and the connections between them. He also said:

“The universe changes; our life is what our thoughts make it. You have power over your mind, not outside events.”

This quote makes me think about a wonderful book I am re-reading at the moment called ‘The Power of Now’ by Eckhart Tolle. Eckhart has a similar philosophy. One of my favourite quotes of his is:

“Wherever you are, be there totally. If you find your here and now intolerable and it makes you unhappy, you have three options: remove yourself from the situation, change it, or accept it totally. All else is madness.” ~ Eckhart Tolle

I am amazed how quickly Tom has adjusted to his weekly lessons as a kid who was very reluctant to start, he actually looks forward to his lessons and feels much more confident at school because of the help provided by Kip and his fabulous teacher.
