In the commercial world the workshops are priced around $40 + per participant.
In reality you can’t put a price on happiness. It is priceless. The abundance is in ‘giving’. See GNH4Fun below.
Happiness! Australia is inspired by Dr Patch Adams and his notion of friendshipism which is about exchange. Friends share, care, reveal and heal. It is not just about connecting but becoming friends. This is real human security.
Happiness! Australia is inspired by the Malama philosophy is to take care of yourself, others and this place. How can each of us serve and make things better. The Malama philosophy inspires no participant charge as we learn the real abundance of love is to share, care, reveal and heal.
We are inviting basic costs are covered to travel to where you are.
AND
Participants can exchange what makes them happy. It is about having everyone consider how they can exchange happiness for the other.
WHAT AND WHY?
As we Give we experience real abundance it is the true exchange. It comes from joy and is natural. Children do it all the time.
Exchange can be a happiness idea, helping another, pay it forward or fulfil our wish list to keep going. Whatever you feel you want to share.
Empowerment happens when we give to each other (Malama). That is the real wealth of comm-unity.
Therefore, there is no pricing structure as Happiness! Australia is not a business but a call to action! Happiness. It is a loving exchange in the spirit of Malama.
The ‘Malama’ Philosophy
Malama means to take care of one’s people. Happiness! Australia believes in Malama.
Gifting is also about social support and care for each other with no vested interest. It is about bringing the tribes together as this video shows. They mention giving Malama. They understood community and exchange.
What Happiness! Australia is not!
HA is not volunteering nor a non-profit it is more community helping community or a common-unity responding with positive projects, new ideas, fun activities, skills and to live in joy.
This is a call for sustainable happiness rebalancing all the unhappiness.
At Happiness! Australia we are “living to give” which is our true nature. Kids do it all the time.
Happiness! Australia has a philosophy of ‘exchange‘ similar to going to a friend’s house for dinner (activity) and bringing a yummy home made dessert as an exchange to share or buying the ingredients.
Sharing is caring and inspires common-unity.
Living to give sends a signal or sign-wave that you ARE ‘abundant’ and guess what – Life gives back. This is the real wealth as the environment or nature always gives to us. When we mirror this we return to homeostasis..
Living to take we has it backwards. When we thin this way we do not realise we are sending a signal to life that we are in ‘need’, ‘poverty’ or ‘greed’ and life will send that experience of poverty back to you. This is how nature works:
What you think about you bring about!!
The Law of Attraction (thoughts are magnetic)
The Law of Attraction is a basic science. We are electromagnetic, when we focus the same thoughts and feelings repeatedly (100’s, thousands times etc.) we literally create (manifest) what we think about.
This is why it is very important you learn how to focus thoughts as we collectively as groups create the times we are moving through. Happy or Unhappy?
Remember:
What you think about (consistently) you bring about.
If in doubt it might not come about.
This is how the magic works.
Happiness! Australia is GNH 4 Fun
Giving National Happiness 4 fun (GNH4Fun) is the real wealth of a nation.
It is about individually finding out what is fun to give to life rather than the poverty vibe of ‘loss’ as somehow losing something (feeling powerless). We are taught to fear loss of: partners, friends, safety and economic security (e.g. jobs, cost of living pressures, houses, assets, income, survival). GNH4Fun can turn this around psychologically to see life as an opportunity giving us what we focus on and how important it is to ‘know thyself’.
GNH4Fun it is to spread the vibe of abundance and literally create it. GNH4Fun is a social exchange gifting what makes you happy. It can’t be charity (as this has fear in it), it can’t be ‘doing the right thing’, it has to come from you to consider what you would love to give. When you give in this way whatever you give will in the future naturally return as you send a signal to life that you are abundant (generous).
It is all about learning to share, care, reveal and heal from a state of joy and expectation that what we think about we bring about.
This expands real wealth and abundance as a lived experience. This is the real prosperity. Many wealthy people are not happy but constantly worry about ‘loss’ or ‘deception’ or ‘powerlessness’. They worry about return on investment (ROI), net profits, shareholder value, market share, assets, material wealth, meeting objectives and watching changing economic conditions unaware that they are in a perpetual state of poverty felt as ‘not enough’ or the ‘need for more’, this is where ‘greed as need’ comes from. Nature works in the opposite direction, it receives the real signal of ‘loss’ and then life rebalances (or manifests) abundance. Natural selection, adaptability, functionality and sustaining life for the whole of life is how it has rebalanced ecosystems for billions of years. The sum of the parts is the whole. In the economic system the sum of the parts is disconnected from the whole as ‘self interest’ is taught over ‘best interests‘. This creates poverty or imbalance.
How to engage with the philosophy of ‘living to give’ and GNH4Fun as a signal of real wealth (contribution) rather than a financial payment?
Happiness! Australia invites those participating in inviting a cheer leader speaker, funships (eg. laugh out loud, power of play, juggling, happiness4life, conflict resolution, meditation and other happy activities to consider what you would love to exchange.
For participants this can be different as usually people expect to pay money to join in. This approach means EVERYONE can join in by simply sharing.
You may ask:
Q. What shall I give?
A. Give what makes you feel happy.
Some ideas:
If you can’t think of anything. A few ideas below where we know we will need life to supply our expenses, as follows:
- Ideas for Happiness
- Exchange your gift/talent
- Spend some happy time assisting Happiness! Australia
- Travel costs (petrol, transport)
- Accommodation
- Food hampers
- Maintenance (mechanical skills)
- Donate a vehicle to enable the travelling of Australia (Happiness Van with big smiley face)
- Become a sponsor if you want to expand this vision.
Happiness is the gift that keeps on giving. What goes around comes around. We own nothing in reality. It always gets passed on until we leave the earth.
