Events and Conferences
Leigh has led groups of up to 200 people in Laughter Yoga at special events. Leigh particularly enjoys leading large groups and does so with professional ease. Laughter Yoga is a hip, "now", stress-busting way to kick off a conference or event. The 2008 Democratic National Convention inlcuded Laughter Yoga during the Interfaith Meeting.
Corporate Team Building Workshops
Instead of ropes courses, Laughter Yoga is a very effective, unbelievably simple, corporate team-building tool that is non-threatening, non-political, and non-religious. There are no long speeches to digest. No PowerPoint presentations. Everyone is put on the spot using their laughter, so the playing field is level. Laughter causes our brains to release neurochemicals that will almost force the grumpiest employee to smile.
The most tangible result? Team relationships are strengthened, especially if Laughter Yoga becomes part of regular staff meetings. Please contact Leigh to explore options for your business. info@yogalaughs.com.
"Laughter is like the human body wagging it's tail." -- Wilson Schaef
"We don't laugh because we're happy - we're happy because we laugh." -- William James, psychologist
"I like the laughter that opens the lips and the heart, shows at the same time the pearls and the soul." -- Victor Hugo
"If we can learn to laugh unconditionally, our happiness too will become unconditional." -- Dr. Madan Kataria
"Laughter really is good medicine. It reduces stress, relieves pain, lowers blood pressure and boosts the immune system. It puts people at ease and can lower the tension level in your relationships. Frequent laughter may even reduce your risk for heart disease." -- Craig Hassed, MBBS. senior lecturer, department of general practice, Monash University, Melbourne, Australia
"The human race has only one really effective weapon, and that's laughter. The moment it arises, all our hardnesses yield, all our irritations and resentments slip away, and a sunny spirit takes their place." -- Mark Twain
