8thJune'12-InnovaJC-FB video

Due to space constraints in the blog, this 2nd movie was made separately. It's a snapshot of the participants' feedback on the 8th June LY session. As time wasn't in our favour (team needed to rush off to another location immediately after their quick lunch), the feedback was done openly. A simple question:  “How do you feel after the LY session?” was asked to some participants. After their input, I take the opportunity to provide the comment on the benefits of LY before we closed for the day.

All the good stuff: happy, enjoy, fresh, warm, feel heart beating ...just laughing (too good lah)!!!

Thanks so much for the laughter. Hope the laughter did last for 3 days...hahaha!!!

8thJune'12@InnovaJC

We were invited by Mdm LimSP-VP (am glad she sat throughout  the whole 1 hr and experience the  laughter yoga session) to introduce LY to her 120 staff from 5 schools cluster and I must said they all enjoy the session very much. Follow is a movie of the fantastic fun we had from 11-12+ pm  of 8th June in the Multi-purpose hall of Innova JC. A second movie captured the feedback of the session. Due to time factor, I explain whatever I could after each feedback especially the benefits of LY. Thanks so much Mdm Lim for the opportunity(and lunch) and we look forward to more such sessions. I also want to thanks my team for turning up to support the session: CLYL-Eric, LP-LimHH, SiewYin, Grace, Tina, Ming+Meng(photographer n camera man) and mum. very good very good yeah!!!

13May'12-a reflection

I  revisited the video taken at the yesterday's LY session with 28 aunties and look at their feedback.  In the process of showing them what's Laughter Yoga, steps and exercises, I asked them for how they feel. Interestingly, they all say the same thing ...  开心 (kai xin) = happy.
I probe further and still the same answer ... more 开心 ... can't be explain...hahaha!!! Tks to Dr Madan Kataria, laughter so simple and fun yet must relearn...hahaha!!!
Following is the snapshot of their somewhat 'childlike' response to my 'how do you feel'?

Special thanks to Grace(who picked up the LY-fun when I was invited to demo in Kee Yew's workshop) for sharing with Yvonne about LY. Thanks to Yvonne for her faith and trust that this LY exercise as she was able to gather a group(28pax) of her 'exercise kaki' to come and experience the wonder of laughter today. Everyone told me they enjoy, felt very happy, relax and best of all they have alot of fun. I think the pix and snap-shot of the video speak for it self. I must thank CLYL-Eric, SiewYin, Ming and mum for their support. I dedicate this video and the song  世上只有妈妈好 to all mothers in the world.

22nd March 2012 session - 4 of us: CLYL-Doris, LPs-Lim and SiewYin went to Gul Circle - FMC Technology Singapore Pte Ltd, thanks to John-Worksolution to have fun with close to 40 staff of FMC.

This combination is a result of a great laughter yoga session today. The attached movie is a testimony of their enjoyment.

3Feb2012-PPHREX demo

I was invited by Terry and Sharmini of People Potential to participate in their first 2012 HR Exchange get together program -3rd Feb 2012 at Sheraton Towers. Although the session was titled "laughing your way out of stress", I wasn't going to lecture laughter in that short 20-30mins.   So I reckoned the best way is to 'play' with the team of about 20.  Were they less stress? I guess so ... please see for yourself in this movie, ha ha ha!!! Thanks to PP,   Laughter Matters is officially registered to work with corporate who are keen to look into their staff wellness using laughter. Very good, very good yeah!!!
