Speaking at 🍷 WINE, 👩🏼‍🤝‍👩🏻 WOMEN & WELL-BEING 🧘🏼‍♀️ last week was such a great time!! Thank you Wine Women Wellbeing Edmonton for putting on this beautiful AND MUCH NEEDED event giving the opportunity for women to network and talk about what really matters. It was a room filled of like-minded individuals — a must-attend on your calendars ladies as this event will be happening once a month featuring new speakers on various subjects.

What an honour to have been the first speaker to kick-off this new branch in Edmonton (as Wine, Women & Well-Being is in 12 cities across Canada). Cheers 🥂

It’s FriYAY 🎉 and while there are many reasons to celebrate today, I would like to underline one particular reason: I LOVE MY JOB!
I thought I would be a teacher one day. Studied in the field for two years. Switched to psychology because I thought I would be a positive psychologist and do research. My ultimate life goals was promote my research as a keynote speaker and be an author.
When I decided not to pursue my studies after obtaining my BA in Psychology, I had no clue how I would reach my goal. And now, with The Laughing Hour, I am oh so grateful I can sparkle happiness and joy on stages, and soon in my co-author book (being published in October).
So today, I am celebrating what I have been able to create within one year of being in business. 🎉

Do you have kids? Or you love learning about happiness?
I attended the talk "The Science of Happiness" this summer by Prof. Yoram Yovell, a happiness Guru from Israel, and I would love to share one of the mind-blowing studies discussed that evening.
The researchers wanted to see if happiness could be measured in the present moment (Part ☝🏼: NOW & HERE) or if it was best measured by how we view our past (Part ✌🏼: THEN & THERE). So they conducted a study with over 900 married mothers from Texas.
☝🏼 (NOW & HERE) The women had a beeper for a couple of days which randomly beeped as a cue for them to evaluate on a scale from 1-10 how happy they were in the present moment and what they were doing. ✌🏼(THEN & THERE) A few weeks later, these same women were asked what had brought them the most happiness in the past (coordinating with when they had the beeper).
The findings are mind-blowing! 🤯
What the women reported brought them ❌ the lease happiness in the NOW & HERE was spending time with their kids. What these same women reported brought them ✅ the most happiness in the THEN & THERE was... spending time with their kids.
This goes to show that happiness DOES NOT ALWAYS FEEL GOOD in the present moment. But the bigger picture, the meaning, the purpose behind what you are doing in the end will bring you the most happiness.
A good life is not about always feeling good in the moment. It’s about living a life of purpose, how you are spending your time, with who, doing what. 💕

DidYouKnow 👩🏼‍🏫 Companies with a happy staff outperform their competition by 2️⃣0️⃣%
This Laughing Hour session was special and different for me. Usually I get called by the Human Ressources department or the Executive Director to host a team building experience for the staff. This time was different. I received a call by an employee to host a surprise for their executive director to underline her 10 years of service within the company 🎉 🥳
It just goes to show that it’s definitely a positive workplace culture that has been installed in this office over the course of the last 10 years. 👏🏻👏🏻

“HA-HA-HA” sounds exactly the same whatever language you speak or accent you have. 🌍
Interesting fact❗️👉🏼 The picture on the right was taken during a staff wellness event with ⚠️250 participants⚠️ working for a non-profit in Edmonton, Canada. The “haha’s” roaring in the room definitely blended perfectly whether the participants first language was English, French, German, Spanish, or patati patata! 🎉

❌ No yoga in laughter yoga? A bit confusing, yes? LET ME EXPLAIN👇🏼
When we think of yoga, we often think of the poses, the stretching, the sequence of postures. 🍃But yoga is also a BREATHING PRACTICE. If you have ever seen or participated in a yoga session, 🗣you have heard the instructor indicate when to inhale and when to exhale.
When you think about it,👉🏼👉🏼 laughter is a really long exhale.👈🏼👈🏼 Take a moment to try it now — laugh. You see?
Furthermore, during a laughter yoga session, we take pauses from laughing to take deep breathes. 🤗
That’s where “yoga” in laughter yoga comes from.

💬 Today, I would like to talk about the difference between 🤡 COMEDY and 🤩 LAUGHTER YOGA?
🤡 COMEDY is when your brain sees or hears something external that is then analyzed as funny. Your brain indicates to your body that it’s funny and your body starts laughing. 🧠 🍸 Your brain then secretes a happiness cocktail with endorphines and serotonin making you feel like a million dollars 🙌🏼
🤩 LAUGHTER YOGA is when your body starts laughing to trick your brain into thinking that you saw or heard something funny. 🧠🍸 Your brain then secretes the same happiness cocktail making you feel like a million dollars 🙌🏼
Same same, but different.
👋 Meet , a comedian — incredible beautiful laugh, would you agree?
