FREE HUGS Campaign

Free Hugs in BrisbaneYou probably remember our July newsletter, Hugs: The Ultimate Antidepressant, in which you found out how important it is to get hugs and other physical contact to be happy.

This week, we received an email about a guy from Sydney, who took this message so seriously, he's started a positive hugging epidemic. Juan Mann realised, after returning from a trip abroad, how little touch people were getting around him. He also thought they looked a bit down. So he came out onto the street, holding a big sign, saying "FREE HUGS". Here's what happened to him (watch the twists and turns to the end).

After a while, he appeared on Good Morning America and then on TEN News.

But wait, there's more! Other people, who watched Juan's hugs on YouTube, were moved into action in Tel Aviv, Zurich and Toronto and maybe in other places.

NOW, LET'S HUG BRISBANE !

The entire Be Happy in LIFE family will be going out to the

Queen Street Mall in Brisbane,
next to the Tourist Information Centre
on Saturday, 18 November, at 2pm,

carrying "FREE HUGS" signs and hugging anybody who wants to be hugged.

We want you there with us. Just bring a sign and a warm heart.

If you've inspired by all of this and want to join us, please send this on to the people you know and let us know you'll be coming.

Important note: this campaign is about the hugs and the human touch, so please keep it clean from unrelated promotion.

If you've received this notice from someone else, please subscribe to our newsletter list to receive any updates about the campaign, in case anything changes and when we do the next thing.

If you don't live within driving distance of Brisbane, why don't you start your own campaign in your very own city? Together, let's touch all of humanity!

Your Life Coach, Gal BarasYour Life Coach, Ronit BarasIt's the sense of touch. In any real city, you walk, you know? You brush past people, people bump into you. In L.A., nobody touches you. We're always behind this metal and glass. I think we miss that touch so much, that we crash into each other, just so we can feel something
- from the movie “Crash”

Be happy in life!
