Joyful Living

Surprise! Surprise!

Whew! We had a full day of laughter with the staff from two local schools, Garfield Elementary and John Harris Elementary, today. The principals of each school introduced Laughter Yoga as a surprise to the staff as part of their busy day of getting ready to welcome the kids back to school next week.

We started each presentation off with the Pledge of Allegiance. But this pledge called for a hand on your heart, a index finger on someone else’s nose, and words that pledged allegiance to fun and playfulness. Hahaha!

School Administrators Laugh For No Reason

Jill & Dan had a great time sharing Laughter Yoga with school administrators at their annual late summer meeting. Dr. Pam Homan, Superintendent of the Sioux Falls Public Schools, thought Laughter Yoga would be a great activity - and she got an “A+” for her efforts! The afternoon time slot is where Pam usually schedules fun team building activities for the administrators, and this time they not only had a great time laughing, but learned valuable tools to make their lives more joyful on a daily basis. Read on and take a look at these principals faces! Very good, very good, yay!

"You Gotta Be Out of Your MIND: Getting the Life of Your Dreams"

Laughter coaching was put into action at a life-changing workshop on Saturday, June 26, at The Dharma Room Yoga Studio in Sioux Falls, SD. This live workshop showcased the power of coaching, and was facilitated by Dan Johnson and Angie Kosirog. How fun to see people shift their perspectives on laughter, their belief systems and even on their own dreams.

The workshop took participants through a highly interactive process of creating a detailed vision of the life of their dreams and specific tools to use in designing a plan to over come obstacles, tap into hidden strengths, and reach goals in any area of life. Lives were shifted, shook-up, explored and transformed. Now that’s a workshop that lived up to it’s promise of “You gotta be out of your mind!” Hahaha!!

Laughter Coaching is a transformational process working one on one (via phone or in person) to bring the practice of laughter into one’s life experience. Long standing scientific research backed by new studies  continues to show the incredible merits and the necessity of having abundant laughter in our lives.  Laughter has the ability to help us function at our optimal physical, mental, and emotional levels. Laughter Coaching serves to create or reestablish the practice of laughter in a client’s life.
