Bayside Middle School Laughter Yoga


Bayside Middle School

Bayside, WI

April 2, 2011





The teachers and staff were not sure what to expect by this mandatory staff team building event. The stressors of working in education were taking it's toll on the staff.  This event very rapidly transitioned the staff from defensive posturing to a joyful, relaxed, engaging group of educators!  They were able to put their stressors aside and treat themselves to the benefits of laughter.  It was contagious.  They were left with a warm sense of hope and congeniality.  The principal remarked, "I have not seen the staff interact with this much enthusiasm the entire school year!"

I BECAME A LAUGHTER YOGA LEADER!


I did it! I graduated from the Iowa School of Laughter Yoga and now I am a certified Laughter Yoga Leader. I'm the one in the bottom left-hand corner. The course was held in Waukesha, Wisconsin September 24-25.

My laughing professor was my sister, Laughing Laura, who demanded I finally learn how to prescribe laughter medicine by learning laughter yoga. She is so proud of me! Below, you can see me getting my laughing degree-hee-hee!
