Welcome to The Great Big Yawn CIC where a group of individuals around the globe are creating a Movement. A Movement to create a contagious yawn of relief around the globe.
A World Poised for Renewal
The world today feels like it teeters on the edge of opposites. On one side, we see crises: environmental disasters, social unrest, and deep personal struggles that leave us feeling disconnected. On the other side, we witness extraordinary acts of compassion, creativity, and collaboration that inspire hope. Our work recognizes that these dualities are not separate but intertwined, like the yin and yang of existence.
This interplay of struggle and renewal echoes through our life and teachings. We views the challenges we face—whether as individuals or as a global community—as opportunities for profound reset. It’s in these moments of tight contraction, like the deep inhale of a yawn, that we gather energy to release something new: creativity, solutions, and a way forward rooted in hope.
We doesn’t shy away from the enormity of the challenges we face. Instead, we reframe them as part of a natural cycle, a collective transition where possibility blooms from adversity. It is our belief that just as the planet resets through the cycles of nature, so too can we reset ourselves and our relationships with one another and the Earth.

The Power of Creativity and Possibility
Central to our work is the idea that creativity is our most powerful tool for transformation. When life feels overwhelming or stagnant, it’s often through creative expression—whether in art, movement, conversation, or simply imagining a new way forward—that we begin to rediscover hope. Creativity is not just a talent reserved for a few; it is an inherent part of being human. It’s the energy that fuels solutions, forges connections, and helps us reimagine what’s possible.
Our teachings invite you to tap into this wellspring of creativity, even in the face of uncertainty. We believes that the act of creating—whether it’s a painting, a garden, a new room, a moment of laughter, or a vision for a better world—is a profound form of relief. It reminds us of our agency, our ability to shape the world around us, and our place within the greater cycles of life.
A Vision of Hope
In a world that often feels fractured, we offer a vision of hope—not as a fleeting emotion but as a grounded practice. We believe that hope is born from connection: to ourselves, to one another, and to the larger web of life. Through our work, we have seen how even the smallest acts of kindness, creativity, or curiosity can ripple outward, creating waves of change.
Our message is clear: no matter how heavy the moment may feel, there is always a path forward. It begins with a pause, a breath, a yawn. It continues with an open heart and a willingness to imagine something new. And it grows through the recognition that we are not alone—our struggles and triumphs are part of a shared journey.
Relief and Reset for Ourselves and the Planet
Relief, comes when we allow ourselves to pause. In that pause, we breathe, yawn, or stretch—and something begins to shift. These small acts of release mirror the larger processes of renewal that are essential for both personal and planetary healing.
This film gives a vision of the expansion and contraction of human, global and universal movement. We invite you to watch this short film A Radical Guide to Reality created by Dr Jude Currivan, who has a Masters Degree in Physics, specializing in quantum physics and cosmology, from the University of Oxford and a PhD in Archaeology from the University of Reading. Jude is a cosmologist, planetary healer, ex senior business woman, futurist and international award winning author. (Rachel Earing, our Founder, met Jude at the Science & Consciousness summit at Broughton Sanctuary, in November 2024, where this film was played and Jude kindly gave her permission to use this on our website.)
We believe The Big Breath below is The Great Big Yawn and the missing link through connecting humanity and the universe together. Expansion and contraction needs to be experienced, felt and acknowledged for it to be believed and understood consciously as well as intellectually otherwise they are just words on a page with no reality attached to it from an individual perspective.
We sees the yawn not just as a metaphor but as a guide: a simple, natural act that offers profound wisdom. When we yawn, we contract tightly, gathering energy, and then release into a state of calm. It’s a physical reset that reminds us of the rhythms we share with the Earth—seasons that contract into winter and expand into spring, tides that ebb and flow, and ecosystems that find balance after disruption.
Our work and now our work emphasizes that these moments of relief are not indulgences but necessities. They are the spaces where healing begins, where creativity finds room to grow, and where the spark of possibility ignites. For the planet, this means finding ways to live in harmony with natural cycles, embracing sustainable practices that honor the Earth’s rhythms. For ourselves, it means listening deeply to our own needs, allowing rest and renewal to guide us toward greater clarity and purpose.
Check out below the next project you can get involved in with The Great Big Yawn and our International partners (scroll down for an example of what we will be doing together). You can come and sing with us and have fun as an organisation, community group, friends, family or on your own. Learn a song in 3 languages and grow in self confidence, awareness and friendships. That’s what we do….
An Invitation to Reset
As you step into our world, consider this your invitation to reset. Allow yourself to feel the contraction of life’s challenges without resistance, knowing that they are the prelude to release. Explore your own creativity, letting it guide you toward hope and possibility. And most importantly, embrace the rhythm of the yawn—the grace of pausing, resetting, and beginning anew.
Our hope is that you will find relief with our journey with us. Relief from the weight of what you carry, from the noise of the world, and from the pressure to have all the answers. We invites you to discover the beauty of life’s cycles, the power of your own creativity, and the profound connection that binds us all.
After all, haven’t we overlooked and underestimated ourselves just as we have the humble yawn? Isn’t it time to pause, reset, and rediscover what’s possible?
Welcome to the journey. Let’s yawn, create, and begin again—together.
