Rediscover how to live a joyous vibrant life with less effort!

Living Life in Joy

When we were kids, we had all the effortless energy of a vibrant, carefree, and curious kid. HOW DID THAT GO AWAY?

It wasn’t age! Age is just a number. I’m in my 60s and more full of life now than when I was 30.

Think of when a bicycle wheel gets out of balance, and it’s wobbling around, how hard it would be to pedal forward! Our bodies are like a bicycle; when it’s out of balance, moving takes more energy.

At Living Life in Joy, I offer you a gentle, easy way to help you bring your physical body back into harmony with nature and rediscover that long-lost spark of energy in your life.

The foundation of the process is Qigong, an easy, gentle practice that can be learned quickly, is time-efficient, can be adapted to your unique body, and is portable.

In addition to Qigong, I invite you to join me on my 30-year        adventure as I wandered the world, guided by my inner insight. In my book, My Backpack Was My Home, I show how it is possible to tap into our innate natural guidance system with trust and watch as the life magically opens for us. 

 

I am an educator (M.Ed. MA), a Certified Spring Forest Qigong Trainer and Living Life in Joy mentor.  My approach to change comes from 30+ years of personal exploration and experiential learning.  Using physical movement and a conversational style of coaching I help you to discover your innate wisdom, peace, joy and love. Everything you need to live a joyous, vibrant life lies within you. Once you understand how to tap into the source within yourself, you begin to transform your life.

My Backpack was My Home:

One Woman’s Wild Adventure Guided by Insight

What would your life be like if you could trust your intuition and open up where the guidance led you?

I did just that!  I am still doing it!

You can too!

In my mid-teens, a personal experience profoundly changed me and became the guiding force of my life. An inner path opened, and I was guided from a small Canadian town to a life of adventure worldwide. I followed my inner guide for over 25 years with a backpack as my home. My knife edge adventures, personal losses, life altering connections, and deep soul searching finally led me to live joyfully.

Here is what one reader had to say:

“I loved reading about all of the journeys Carolynne went on over the years. By trusting and listening to her insight she was lead to so many places, seeing so many beautiful things, and meeting beautiful people. It has inspired me to listen to my own insight to see what path I will go on. Thank you Carolynne!” ~ Joanne B

Would you like an exercise class where:

  • you can have more energy and inner peace in as little as 15 minutes a day.
  • you can practice standing, sitting or laying down.
  • each qigong movement can be adapted to your body’s specific needs.
  • you can’t make a mistake or mess it up.
  • you can practice any time, anywhere, even in your car or at work.
  • you can learn each movement quickly and easily.
  • you don’t need flexibility or physical strength.
  • you will get one-on-one guidance for personal issues.

Here is what participants say:

“Keep doing what you’re doing. You are making an amazing impact on those of us who participate in your class — and beyond!” S T

Why wait? Your healthier, happier self awaits.
