LIVING A GAME CHANGING, PURPOSEFUL LIFE WITH THE
POWER OF LAUGHTER

When was the last time you enjoyed a deep ‘belly’ laugh? The kind that leaves you helpless, big grin on your face and full of joy.

Isn’t that the kind of laughter that brings you closer to your family, colleagues, friends and helps you to build on or make new relationships.

When it is done as a physical exercise combined with deep breathing techniques, it becomes ‘Laughter Yoga’

Laughter Yoga is not a comedy act – in fact it doesn’t rely on humour, jokes or comedy AT ALL.

LAUGHTER YOGA IN THE WORKPLACE IS A GAME-CHANGER

It reduces stress, boosts team morale, creativity and encourages a positive, collaborative environment.

By combining laughter with deep breathing, employees can release tension, improve their mood and increase their energy levels, making them more focused and productive.

It fosters stronger connections among colleagues, breaking down barriers and promoting a sense of community.

Simply put, laughter is contagious – creating a workplace that thrives on joy and high spirits

Too often we are afraid to step out of our Comfort Zones to stretch our ‘chuckle muscles’ but the wellbeing effects are enormous.

Think of how good this activity could be in your workplace, for your staff, your management, your goals and your productivity.  Who would have thought laughter could be so powerful?

LAUGHTER IS THE BEST BUSINESS MEDICINE

With 14 years in the business of delivering Laughter Yoga my aim is to:

  • Only work with businesses that care about their staff
  • Only work with businesses that invest in their staff wellbeing
  • Only work with businesses that aspire to a joyful environment

Why? …. Because I know:

  • It leads to an increase in productivity
  • It leads to an increase in team connectivity
  • It leads to an increase in creativity.

So, if you work in Human Resources and you recognize the importance of making the workplace a friendly, joyful environment, I’d love the opportunity to discuss running a bespoke Laughter Yoga session for your staff. 

The chart below demonstrates the effectiveness of Laughter Yoga sessions with 7 groups and a total of 43 participants from January to December 2024:

DO YOU WANT TO BENEFIT FROM A PROVEN ACTIVITY TO FOSTER
BETTER BUSINESS RESULTS?

Delivering Laughter Yoga sessions in the work places has resulted in significant benefits

  • The law firm in Birmingham where staff seemed more nervous and ‘out of the comfort zone’ than usual but eventually thoroughly embraced the sense of freedom and connection with each other. It was only after the session finished that I learned many of the staff had never met each other before as they worked for different departments on different floors.

  • The school where I ran a Laughter Yoga session for the staff a week before running one for their pupils. With the staff totally on board following their experience, the children had a wonderful session.

  • Most recently, running a Laughter Yoga session for a corporate client during their business meeting. There were 70 people attending, mostly men and I felt I might have a bit of a challenge.  But the client takes training and wellbeing seriously, which enabled me to run a particularly effective session. How delighted I felt as all those men threw themselves at the laughter exercises, absolutely loving the experience.

This is why I love what I do. To watch the transformation in people who were initially sceptical and watching their long-hidden inner child come to the surface to play. 

It’s priceless.

WHY SELF-CARE KEEPS GETTING PUSHED TO THE BOTTOM OF
YOUR TO-DO LIST

Looking after ourselves is something we should all make time for but how many of us do it?  With work, family and general responsibilities, thinking about ourselves is one of the last things we make time for.  There is a book titled “I’m too busy to be stressed’ by Dr Hilary Jones that a lot of us can identify with. 

We don’t need to live our lives in the fast lane all the time.  To be the best we can be, it is important to take opportunities to re-charge and look after ourselves – in body and mind.

The NHS and Mental Health organisations promote the ‘Five Ways to Wellbeing’ and these are:

  • Connect
  • Get active
  • Take notice
  • Learn
  • Give

The exercise of Laughter Yoga complies with all five of these
