Hello, I'm Manuela Rohr, expert for invulnerable happiness & inventor of the Tiny Islands...

... and I would like to tell you why"The Way of the Tiny Islands"exists . It's the path that leads you to that special happiness. Well, once upon a time, many years ago....

At that time I wished for nothing more than to continue to master my life despite the constant blows of fate. But the extreme premature birth of our daughter had turned my life upside down. In the first few years, I spent most of my time at her bedside, filled with fear, suffering from a chronic lack of time and often feeling very desperate.

But I also felt a deep calling within me to use my experience as a body-mind therapist not only to help myself, but also to be a companion for my students who had experienced their own losses.

Years later - I had successfully offered my courses again and again and had experienced much joy through it - I had to give up my beloved work for some time due to a new serious illness of my daughter. Also the time for my own practice, which I loved very much and which gave me the strength for this exhausting life, became less and less.

The questions that kept coming to me would not let me go

"What could be the path that would allow me to take good care of myself, despite everything that was difficult?"

"How could I be deeply connected to my inner happiness every day, even, or especially, when everything was falling apart around me and I felt like there were ruthless time thieves stealing my life?"

A PAIR DAYS LATER, as I did almost every morning after my hike through the woods, I sat on a rock and admired the sky. The early morning hours were the only ones that were mine alone and I knew nature would give me strength.

Sunrise was just announcing itself and an overwhelming longing tightened my heart. I felt so powerless at the mercy of my fate, even though I practiced yoga and unwound my soul in nature whenever possible. But it was never enough. The stress caught up with me over and over again...

My tears flowed and would not stop.

And yet, I wanted to capture those minutes of beauty that heaven gave me and never let go before I had to go back home. For what awaited me there was pure chaos. My daughter, now grown up, marked by autism and therefore unable to manage her daily life on her own, would immediately take over my entire existence again

I dried my tears and felt my sadness fade away. Yes, I wanted to be free, like the sky above me, and not always walk around in shackles. And so I said to myself

"If the sky conjures up such colors for me and does so again and again, then I too want to conjure and be responsible for my happiness."

And right after that I heard myself saying, "Yes, I want to! I will do everything to be invulnerably happy."

At that moment I remembered my dream dancer, a picture that had been given to me at the time of my daughter's birth: a little elephant on a tightrope, balancing around in the dark night, high above and full of confidence, reaching for the stars.

Yes, back then - my little daughter was just four months old, still in the hospital and hovering in mortal danger. It was then that this little elephant brought hope back to me that she would make it. He helped me to regain my lost confidence in the world

The next question was already there: "But how? How could this look concretely in my stressful life? Where was the paradise I wanted so much for my life?"

I often felt at the mercy of fate, even if I didn't like to admit it. After all, as a healer, I had experienced all kinds of success with my clients. Why couldn't I make that happen for me, too? "I just don't have the time," was not a satisfactory argument either. Even if it was true...

I was always on my clients' case that they needed to recognize themselves as the most important thing in their lives before they helped others.

In the next few minutes, I finally realized what I was missing: I didn't have enough time or peace for my deep practice. But being constantly annoyed about it didn't help either. I had already lovingly christened my morning ritual my Tiny Island... So why didn't I create more of them? More of the Tiny Islands?

I asked myself: how could I collect moments of happiness that would help my inner strength and deep-rooted joy shine?

"I need an imaginary treasure chest with lots of Tiny Islands in it," it went through my mind. With that, I would learn to follow the dream dancer who had by now taken a firm place in my heart. After all, he had already shown me once that this was possible. With this thought, I felt more alive and free than I had in a long time!

On the way home, my step was light, a deep joy bounced down the mountain with me, and the journey to my inviolable happiness had begun.

I realized that I had everything I needed already inside me. All I had to do was change my vision and start collecting and practicing! The Tiny Islands came together like a colorful mosaic and wove themselves into the flow of my day. Very quickly, I felt more energy and a new glow within me

While I started to collect my Tiny Islands the very first night - in the meantime a book with 365 Islands has been created - my eyes fell on the little elephant next to me, my dream dancer. His picture and the accompanying poem were always at eye level with me, right next to my computer. There, right in front of me, he showed me how I could master the tightrope act despite adverse circumstances

As if guided by a magic hand, he hopped back to number one in my life and explained everything I needed to achieve this lofty goal of mastery in "BeingInvulnerably Happy. " Just like him, reaching for the stars high up on the wobbly rope, I too wanted to master my life.

Today, the Tiny Islands are the foundation of my work. I help my clients, who want to be invulnerably happy, to fully integrate this heroic practice into their daily lives in order to establish a new awareness and to gain deep certainty about their invulnerability.

In this way, my greatest wish comes true again and again, namely that my clients, like me, experience a life full of pure happiness that arises from the moment, and that enables them to master their destiny heroically at any time.

All those who choose this path contribute to creating, with deep satisfaction, a world where they share their joy to show the way to paradise to others who previously went through hell.

Dream Dancer

Totally concentrated - the gaze wide awakeThe
fat man pretends to be dainty.
He balances as if it were his profession.
The pose is cute.

The way on this thin rope is surely very dangerous.
One wonders: will he tip over or not?
Will he manage to reach his goal - how wonderful!

With worries we follow the game and this tightrope act.
Because if it falls from the balance,
then the misfortune is fact.

But why fear, why tremble,
why not be so courageous?
We see here with this animal
that it is held.

So it may feel almost safe
, as a dream dancer playing with stars.
And has despite foolhardy BalancenZu
outlast good chances
.
