Buzz from the Big Feastival

We had a superb time at the Big Feastival - thank you so much to everyone who came to see us on our Mantra stand. What glorious weather, and what a fabulous event! 

Talented chefs, delicious food, a happy family atmosphere, great music, sunshine, and lots of inspiring people and products - a lovely way to spend a bank holiday weekend. 

We gave out over 900 'happy thoughts' from our Mantra jars - mantras to inspire, make you smile, make you think. 

And we had around 150 entries to our 'Tell us what makes you happy' competition, to win our amazing 'Feel Happy Every Day' box, worth over £200. Alongside 3 Mantra necklaces from our Happiness and Wellbeing collection, the prize also includes a gorgeous candle and skincare products from our friends at Ila Spa. And also, Fearne Cotton's inspiring book, 'Happy' - which she very kindly signed for us when we met up with her on Friday.

Your competition entries were lovely - so heart-warming and life-affirming. 'Family' was by far the most popular answer, from loving your kids and partner, to sharing family time together. Laughter, spending time in the sunshine, and loving being with your furry friends - from kittens to horses - all gave you great joy, and many of you simply said 'life itself!', which was a wonderful answer. 

The winner of the 'Feel Happy Every Day' box is Sharon Laws! Congratulations Sharon!

Many of you treated your family to a piece of Mantra Jewellery - uplifting gifts for your kids, sisters, partners. And some of you treated yourselves to a piece to motivate and inspire your own self. 

Our most popular designs at the Feastival were the arrow, lotus, plume feather, flower and many of the discs - with mantras as diverse as 'When life pulls you back, aim forwards', to 'She who is Brave is Free', through to 'Be Fearless'.

We loved meeting all of you at the Big Feastival. Thank you so much for making it so great! We loved the sunshine, music, great food and fantastic family atmosphere.

If ever a festival lived up to our Mantra philosophy of 'Feel inspired every day', this was it!
