"Laughter gives us distance. It allows us to step back from an event,
deal with it and then move on." ~ Bob Newhart, comedian
~ Lynn's Laughter Blip for April ~
By Lynn Shaw, Laughter Therapist
Implementing laughter into each day comes down to three little words. The application of
these words can take on many forms and can be utilized in many settings. At a recent
workout with a personal trainer, who has participated in a laughter club demonstration,
I was running out of steam doing those wonderful (?) abdominal crunches. When I
started to stop, he encouraged me with, "Ha Ha Hee Hee Ho Ho!" After I
glared at him, I then giggled and resumed the count. Now when I start to whine about
the exercise drills, he'll toss me a "Ho Ho Hee Hee, come on!" How insightful
of him to incorporate my own teachings into the sessions he prepares for me. Bless his
abs of steel....hee hee, ha ha, ho ho!
Have a LAUGH on me today!
