Welcome to The Great Big Yawn!
We are a Movement of individuals from around the Globe who are taking the humble YAWN, something the WHOLE of humanity can do, to bring awareness and mindfulness to it’s innate healing abilities and connection to oneness.
- It connects us faster and more intimately to each other than any words or language.
- It stimulates empathy.
- It stimulates our eyes, ears, nose and throat.
- It stimulates and calms the Vagus Nerve.
- It stimulates the lymphatic system
- It stimulates conversation & community.
- It is a natural reaction our body makes in the womb from about 20 weeks old.
- It stimulates ‘Hope Molocules’.
- It stimulates more muscles in our body with the one Great Big Yawn than any other excercise we do.
- It brings us immediately into the present moment.
- It helps creativity.
- It helps us change state faster the more intentionally we use it.
- It releases resistence to mental change through our body.
- It is the fastest somatic tool we have to relieve ourselves of tension.
There is so much more to the humble YAWN than we realise and it is our intention to bring this awareness to the whole of humanity and change the paradigm from stifling our yawns of bordeom, to owning each and every yawn as a sign of openness and creativity.
We are looking for Yawning Ambassadors around the globe to join our Movement.
Are you an conscious organisation looking for SIMPLE, SMART ways to shift your colleagues forward into this every changing world? Get in touch today to see how we can help you swiftly move forward together.
YAWNING AMBASSADORS
We have Yawning Ambassadors around the globe helping to spread the awareness and mindfulness of the YAWN.
They educate, inspire and motivate conversations around The Great Big Yawn and what that means as an experience for each and every one of us.
They encourage personal research into your individual and collective Yawning experiences to pass back to us so we can collate a global reference on what the Yawns means for us as a species, animals and our environment.

CONNECTION
The Yawn connects us through 1 single action without the use of words.
It is totally inclusive of the human and animal species.
We join in and yawn together in empathy. It connects us without words and helps to alter out state from one to another faster if we are intentional with it.
Yawning helps with deep relaxation and reduces stress.
Studies have found that yawning increases when people are engaged in difficult mental tasks.
Yawning helps contract the facial muscles during a yawn which forces blood through cerebral blood vessels to the brain, which may function to increase alertness.
EVENTS
The Great Big Yawn’s main EVENT for the Year is on the 10th November!
The 10th November is NATIONAL YAWNING DAY which has been nominated to create a contagious YAWN of relief around the globe specifically on this day to help relieve the tension of the world’s challenges right now.
We have set a goal for our first year to have 1000 Yawning Ambassadors around the globe helping others understand HOW, WHY, WHEN, WHAT happens when we all complete THE GREAT BIG YAWN.
