Ms Teo Lin-Lee representing Queenstown CC organized this one hour session for representative members from their various sub-groups.  I heard so much good stuff at the end of the session (see video)and hope that they can bring this joy back to their various sub-groups and suggest more such sessions within their members and residents. Am very thankful to have laughter partners: Eleanor, Eric and Janice supporting the session.

LY@TamanJurongZoneE RC-15thMay'11

Had a call for a last min  change. Originally, Taman Jurong CC, Sebastian booked me for a 1 hour classroom LYoga session for his committee members.

A few days ago,  I was told after talking to Chairman, Mr Tan Kim Huat, that it is going to be a 30 mins LYoga session for Taman Jurong  Zone E RC resident after their morning walk and jog.

The turnout was close to 70 though they plan 100 pax.

To my amazement, the session was great and for many of them it was beyond their expectations. We interviewed a few participants at the end of the session and they all speak their heart about the benefits even though the session

Chairman and Vice Chairman hoped to see more of such sessions...hurray!!!

  

This is the first time, my Laughter Partners experienced a laughing session with everyone standing in circles.

Special thanks to these Laughter Partners were waking up so early in the morning: Danny, Doris and Betty, Eric, Eleanor and Angel(camera), LohSiewMeng(video) and not forgetting our comedian, Abragail who turned up inspite of the fell she had a few days ago. I am also very happy to see one of my WPL student, Patona and her family. Very good Very good Yeah!!!

LY@New Horizon Centre-14thMay'11

As part of the talk on "Strategies on Managing Caregiver Stress" I was invited to do a Laughter Yoga session which was scheduled on 14 May @ 3pm. 

An interesting 40mins session with about 50 people.  Health care personnel, patient + care givers were having a fun time at New Horizon Centre in Toa Payoh. Everyone I asked after the session said they enjoy and are looking forward to more sessions..ha ha ha!!! Thanks to Eleanor for making this arrangement. Also special thanks to Danny and Elenor for helping in the laughing session. Not forgetting my camera man, Angel.

WLD-1st May'11(starts 8.30am) at Bedok Reservoir Park

My original plan was to join Jean in JB. Yes, I was hesitant about having our Singapore miniature version of WLD celebration.  Together with Eleanor we make a decision to go ahead and I think it was a wise one. Not too sure if we managed to stir up any interest among the morning joggers but our team enjoyed the 3 hours session. A good ending with great food too from all the laughter partners. Once again, thanks so much for all your support, (my laughing partners):

Mum, Putri, Eric, Valerie, Doris (as always), Eleanor, Abragail, Marlin, CC, Ong n Ting, Leslie, Seng, Koh, Betty, Qing n mdm Wong, Sutini, Yeo,  Nor and her 8 children. Very good very good yeah!!!
