It’s almost Laughter time again!

We’ll be laughing intentionally together again this coming Monday at 7.45pm on Zoom. Please join us for upliftment, relaxation, connection and fun! More info and the booking/donation link if you’d like to try it out! https://seenaturally.co.uk/laughter-yoga-sessions/

And now, more thoughts on the healing power of laughter:

Bernie Siegel who I mentioned in my last post, is a medical doctor and author of “Love, Medicine & Miracles” and he writes:

“…remember, when you laugh, you lose an awareness of the physical aspects of life, and transcend your troubles”. I’ve found that this is true, have you?

Laughter – real or fake/intentional- is a mild pain relief and anti-depressant; the cascade of mood-boosting chemicals released into the brain and body within minutes of starting to laugh, have a profound effect on our brain chemistry. Practising laughter quickly shifts us towards a more bubbly, happy light-hearted state. Sometimes, even just thinking about intentional Laughter can move us closer to this charmed feeling of bubbliness and fun. It’s relaxing, uplifting, and the effects of it emanate from us when we laugh, transforming the mood of those around us too.

Regular Laughter practice on your own at home is simple – just 10-15 minutes of laughing intentionally is all it takes to get  the health benefits. Repeat exercises we’ve done in sessions, or make up your own, relating to your experiences that day or that week! You can do it when you don’t feel like it, or just when you know you need it. Notice how uplifting and cathartic this practise is:)

Have you ever walked into a room and somehow sensed what went on there just a few moments before? That perhaps people were dancing or discussing something in particular, or whatever it was –  and then you discovered your intuition was right?  If we fill our lives with as much laughter as possible, laughing as often as we can, practising it regularly for no reason at all and at the least excuse, we may give others the gift of the wonderful laughter energy that we leave behind us! And I wonder how far it might travel, like a puff of smoke or a beautiful cloud that drifts on the wind..?

Looking forward to creating some more sparky, bubbly, sunshiny laughter energy with you in the Laughter Yoga zoom session on Monday – hopefully see you there!

Monday has come around again and tomorrow I’ll be hosting another of my weekly Laughter Yoga Sessions on Zoom!

I’m really looking forward to it!

We start at 7.45pm with hellos etc, and after some preliminary warm-ups,  we’ll laugh (with fun exercises and deep breathing), for approx. 15 mins (in order to get all the amazing health benefits), and finish at around 8.15/8.20pm.

And here’s the first of my thoughts and research findings on Laughter:

Intentional laughter has been proven to boost our mood within minutes of starting to laugh and, when practised regularly, people notice that they begin to laugh more, and also more often! They begin to see the funny side of things much more of the time, and see the world in a brighter, more optimistic way.

Dr Bernie Siegel (author of “Love, Medicine and Miracles” and “The Beginner’s Humor and Healing”, writes: “Be a healer and spread joy through humour and laughter. The world is a human comedy if we but see it that way. Yes, it is a tragic comedy at times, but he who laughs lasts. Remember it is not healthy to be serious and normal. Trying to be normal is only for those who feel inadequate. So be a carrier and spread joy and healing…”

Join us on a Monday evenings to spread the healing energy of laughter to this tragic-comedy world; fill your hearts and minds with the healing magic laughter – and a lot of very beneficial childlike silliness  – just notice how much better you feel!

And it’s all scientifically proven!

I LOVE teaching Group Vision Courses, they’re so much fun!

I love the comments like: “I’m now seeing everything in a much more 3D way!”, or: “I started noticing so much more than I used to and everything felt so much more REAL”…and this is just after Lesson 2 or 3!  What will it be like after Lesson 6 of the Beginners Course, I wonder? I can’t wait to find out:)

The Intermediates & Refreshers Live Zoom Course will be starting soon – here’s the info: 6 Steps to Better Vision  – Live Zoom Group Course 2. Send me an email if you’re interestecd in joining –  I’d love to help you to get your vision where you want it – and fast!
