In reference to the above, what fuels your happiness and what is your " Happy Place ".I recently discovered my Happy Place at a Hotel based in Turkey , having said this I have been visiting Turkey since 2010, but this place remains a memorable in terms of being Happy for a week.

Can anyone relate and explain what fuels their happiness?

Your garden is truly beautiful and I wonder if the garden sold the house to you.

Very beautiful and uplifting. I think by going away for a week made me see what can really make you happy .

However, I will be going to see my Mother in a few days time and this is why I put up several posts before I go.

I can see at times how much we can strive to find our happy place but finding a happy place is essential for our health and mental well being

I was hoping to sell my rental flat this year and buy a home with a garden, however as my Mother is coming over for her cataract, I have decided to monitor my health and try to reduce stress as this seems to be causing some symptoms.

It would seem stress is causing some post menopausal symtoms and being near nature really is a dream come true for many. I expect you have waited many years to attain your dream home and it was worth the wait.Everything in its own time

Thank you for you very uplifting words and encouragement. I am due to visit my Mother in a few days before she comes to UK for her Cataract surgery .

But bit by bit , I can see what triggers anxiety and what uplifts us .

If we truly believe in our dreams, this can be manifested by our intention.

Thank you for making this clear to me

Truly incredible I intend to sell my rental flat next year and hopefully I will seek to have a garden which can act as a Sanctuary.

As I get older , I learn to appreciate the beauty of nature and being close to all scenic beauty.

happy place is a place with animals (preferably cute, furry ones)... because animals are less scary than people.

no problem

But an interesting post I put up to understand what makes house a home and how this bring comfort and real happiness .

I think I hade finally seen how overshadowed I have been by both of my parents and each one of us is entitled to find happiness.

As I have said , I will be visiting my Mother in a few days but deep down I now know how much she can trigger my anxiety and now I know better , hopefully I will be able to deal with this better .

It's the people who make the harsh comments who have the problems not those that they are directed at!

How are you and Prince Pixie getting on?

My happy place is in the sunshine, my home and the beach which sadly I don't get to very often because I don't live near it, but that's okay.

There's the Hull Marina you can go to isn't there and the Humber Bridge country park to be near water?

I felt very happy at a hotel in Turkey, but I don't think it was the same as yours!

I have many happy places; but if I had to choose one, it would be Cornwall; a place I have known since I was 5. I know it like the back of my hand, even though I haven't been there for about 20 years now.

There was a sea lock where a canal used to be, and a small river, a outdoor seawater swimming pool, Golf course, surfboard hire, some gorgeous beaches with rockpools which I enjoyed scrambling over and catching fish in. A riding school where I used to hack out.

A good range of shops and a cinema which has now closed, lovely walks over the cliffs. At one time it had a railway hub, and I loved listening to the shunting engines first thing in the mornings, but, that too is now gone. Another place was a cove in a valley where there was a big flood 20 years ago.

A short drive along the coast there was a ruined castle on a promontery. and still further down the coast was a major town for Surfing.

Lovely memories.

Now my happy place is my home in West Wales.

Cheers, Midori
