T

HE FULL PROGRAM FOR THE BYRON BAY FILM FESTIVAL IS NOW AVAILABLE ONLINE, INTRODUCING A STELLAR SHOWCASE OF OVER 155 FILMS, INCLUDING 21 DOCUMENTARIES, 15 DRAMATIC FEATURES, 20 MUSIC VIDEOS AND 68 SHORTS AS WELL AS AN EXTENSIVE SELECTION OF VIRTUAL REALITY EXPERIENCES. Absorbing documentaries explore the Chosen from nearly 1000 submitted works, the selection reflects the progressive, relaxed, hidden world of the internet’s “content yet engaged ethos of the idyllic coastal town, moderators”, the ever expanding role of where surfing, the environment, music, art, Artificial Intelligence in our lives, two very different ground-breaking health and social activism are Japanese artists, young key concerns of everyday life.

filmmakers are prominent alongside their international peers, with stimulating studies of men’s mental health, obsessive pop fandom, the importance of Aboriginal culture, and the crisis in the Kimberley – and the Latrobe Valley.

A standout film is Dying to Live from Frackman director Richard Todd, which looks searchingly at Australians’ seeming reluctance to donate their organs for transplant.

There are also Australian-made dramas showing that will launch their directors, writers and actors onto the world stage, although some, such as the creator of Jirga, Benjamin Gilmour, are there already, following the film’s sensational reception at the recent Toronto International Film Festival. The Byron screening is a sneak preview before Jirga has

its theatrical release, and will be presented in person by Gilmour – now a Byron Shire resident.

Other dramas range from dark and almost surreal comedies from Latvia and Iran, romances blossoming within war zones (and an abattoir), and adventures from the Arctic to the south of France. A supernatural thriller, The School, is another product of a Byron Shire team.

The festival also has what is perhaps Australia’s most comprehensive offering of virtual and augmented reality experiences on offer, plus workshops, panels, parties, and even a breath work meditation with visual accompaniment.

It’s a 10-day extravaganza of entertainment, learning and fun –Byron Bay’s most colourful and glamorous cultural event – and everyone’s invited!

HANDS OFF

YOU’VE COMMITTED TO GETTING FIT, HEALTHY AND STRONG — YOU GO GIRL! BUT WHETHER YOU’RE HITTING THE GYM OR POUNDING THE PAVEMENT, ALL THAT SWEAT CAN WREAK HAVOC ON YOUR SKIN! NEVER FEAR, WE’VE GOT THE BEST TIPS TO KEEP YOUR COMPLEXION GLOWING, EVEN THROUGH THE SWEAT!

We’re going to let you in on a dirty little secret: gyms are breeding grounds for bacteria! So when you step off the treadmill after that last sprint, don’t reach your hands to wipe the sweat from your face, you’ll transfer those germs to your skin. Opt for a clean gym towel instead! A small bottle of hand sanitiser in your gym bag will come in handy as well to use after your workout!

SLIP, SLOP, SLAP

Now is the perfect time of year to take your workout to the great outdoors, but don’t forget the SPF! Sunburn doesn’t look good on anyone plus melanoma is not sexy. Use a sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30 and remember to apply your sunscreen to all exposed skin, not just your face!

GOOD THINGS COME TO THOSE WHO SWEAT…

MOISTURISE, MOISTURISE, MOISTURISE!

Although it may feel like it, that sweat session you just finished is not quenching your skin with moisture! It’s important to replace the moisture that you’ve lost through sweating and replenish your skin to prevent excess oil and the dreaded post-workout breakout! Opt for an oil-free moisturiser to prevent clogging your pores!

COLOUR CORRECT

Sporting that red, blotchy post-workout look?

Avoid covering your face with a multitude of foundations, powders and concealers, it will just clog your pores and cause breakouts.

Instead, opt for a green concealer! While it may sound crazy, the green pigment will actually neutralise the redness and balance out your skin tone. Finish with a light pressed powder and you’re good to go!

MIX, DON’T MATCH! A 1 bright green jumpsuit with vibrant green eyeshadow won’t make anyone green with envy!

Avoid overly matching your eye shadow colour to your outfit.

If your outfit is already vibrant, choose a complimentary hue for your lids and blend with a neutral colour in the crease to create a more flattering look.

it all! If you’re wearing dramatic eye shadow, keep your base to neutral hues.

Try a paler blush and nude lipstick. By toning down the rest of your makeup, your vibrant eye shadow will pop even more!

LIFE MUSTHAVES

FOR AN EMOTIONALLY

HEALTHY YOU LISA STEPHENSON, FOUNDER OF WHO AM I PROJECTS AND AUTHOR OF READ ME FIRST, DISCUSSES IMPORTANT ELEMENTS TO INCLUDE IN YOUR LIFE

W

e are all in this thing called ‘life’ together, and what a ride we are on! In the middle of the the madness and mayhem, the peaks and troughs, the lessons and laughter, and the triumphs and tragedy, is the beautiful and complex you. You are the writer of your story and the CEO of your life.

It’s extraordinary, sometimes boring and occasionally heartbreaking. You start new projects, change direction and end things you thought would last forever. Then you rebuild and do it all over again. »

health To set yourself up for a successful, resilient and happy life, you should have integrated strategies that support your emotional wellbeing.

Then, when the inevitable curveballs come, you are ready for them. What are your non-negotiables when it comes to looking after you? Here are 10 life must-haves (LMH) to help keep you balanced.

LMH #1: SANDY FEET. This is about having a place that you can visit which feeds you emotionally, physically and spiritually. It might be the beach, the hills, or somewhere else. In our fastpaced world, it’s important to have a special place to refuel and reflect.

Where do you go to look after you?

your body to be still. It is in these moments that your body heals, your head processes and your heart feels.

What would be different for you if stillness was part of your everyday life?

LMH #6: A GRATEFUL HEART. There are gratitude books and journals everywhere you look and that’s because valuing a grateful mindset changes how you think and feel.

Gratitude brings perspective, allows us to say thank you and recognises the aspects in our lives that are bringing happiness and opportunities to learn.

What are you grateful for?

LMH #2: ADVENTURE. The human spirit needs comfort. It also needs newness. Think about the moments that make your heart beat faster — going on an adventure, such as travelling abroad, is often a great way to learn about yourself. New experiences show us things about ourselves and the world we live in. Where will you go on LMH #7: PATTING DOGS. We need to find ways to connect with our your next adventure? communities. It’s important that we LMH #3: MESSY MOMENTS. There feel like we are part of something are days when you should allow bigger than just ourselves. When you yourself to let everything go, whatever stop and pat someone’s dog, it creates that means to you. It’s impossible to be a an opportunity for conversation. Okay, high-performing person who always has so you might not love dogs… but there it together all of the time. Sometimes are lots of ways to be in the moment life is messy. Do you have a strategy for with someone else. How do you connect with people around you? looking after the messy you?

LMH #4: KINDNESS. Being kind to others is great for your health and your actions nearly always find their way back to you. We associate kindness with trust, compassion and integrity. How can you be consciously kind every day?

LMH #5: STILLNESS. The body and the mind both need physical activity to be healthy. However, it is just as important, if not more so, to allow

LMH #8: HUGGING. Okay. People generally fall into one of two categories: huggers and non-huggers.

Hugging communicates so much about what we are feeling. A hug can be comforting, or it can say ‘I’m sorry’, ‘I love you’, ‘I’m so happy to meet you’ or even ask, ‘Are you ok?’ Hugging releases oxytocin from your brain which makes you feel good, it’s the most natural mood elevator around.

Who can you hug today?

LMH #9: STEALING. Now, don’t go and do anything illegal! But the world is full of amazing people, so perhaps there are some things you could borrow from them. Some of the greatest writers, CEOs, designers and teachers on this planet do what they do so that you can grow and translate their learning for yourself. Who inspires you?

IN OUR FASTPACED WORLD, IT’S IMPORTANT TO HAVE A SPECIAL PLACE TO REFUEL AND REFLECT.

everything.

Have no plan, see a movie, just be totally free in the moment. This freedom is essential for your wellbeing and shouldn’t be looked at as an indulgence. It can be a real challenge to carve this time out, but this is when you create new thinking and let go of LMH #10: ESCAPE. There are stuff that doesn’t serve you. How can moments, hours and/ or days when you remove some noise and create you should ignore everyone and space for you?
